Oetker welcomes first Italian Hotel

The Oetker Collection is opening its first Italian masterpiece hotel, Hotel La Palma in Capri, in 2022.

Capri’s first hotel, built in 1822, is to be transformed by Oetker Collection and owners, Reuben Brothers, into an elegant and exclusive 50-room-and-suite property. Located mere steps from the famous Piazzetta, it will comprise a rooftop restaurant and bar, its own beach club, a newly built pool deck, a spa and high-fashion boutiques.

The brand’s first Italian property is set to bring to life the island’s iconic dolce vita lifestyle, with gourmands catered for at Gennaro’s restaurant, bar and terrace, under the culinary direction of Chef Gennaro Esposito.

A short drive to Capri’s southern coast, guests will discover Hotel La Palma’s elegant, yet buzzing La Palma Beach Club in the Marina Piccola, home to the island’s most famous beaches and restaurants. Meanwhile, back at the hotel, there will be an indulgent spa which will offer three treatment rooms, including one double treatment suite, a sauna, steam bath and ice shower, relaxation space and fitness centre. The hotel will also offer three boutiques.
