After the Splendido Mare in Portofino in 2021, the Belmond Group now has plans to carry out renovations on the Splendido, which is also in Portofino.
“Our approach to the renovation project is similar to that of a portrait painter”
The Splendido, an icon of the Ligurian resort since the 1950s, will get a gradual multi-stage makeover by the Martin Brudnizki Design Studio, with the first part to be completed as early as next June.
"The Splendido in Portofino is a real gem. Our approach to the renovations is therefore similar to that of a portrait painter, for an operation that focuses on the building and is as much a restoration as a rejuvenation,” said Martin Brudnizki.
The first stage will involve the pool area and the Baroness Suite
Over a period of several years the design team will carry out a meticulous restoration of the Splendido, a former 16th-century Benedictine monastery. At each summer reopening the hotel will unveil new areas, with the first official debut in June 2023. This first stage of the renovations will include a new pool area and a new dining experience in a family villa at The Pool Grill Restaurant, as well as a complete makeover of the Baroness Suite.
