| THE ILIO BOUTIQUE HOTEL IN THE PAGES
OF THE AUTHORITATIVE SLOW FOOD GUIDE, "LOCANDE D'ITALIA" |
|
The Ilio Hotel is the only hotel in the Isle of Elba to have been included in the new guide, "Locande d'Italia", edited by the authoritative Slow Food association: an honour restricted to this special boutique hotel, where the word is: customer satisfaction. The Ilio boutique hotel has been awarded an important
recognition: it is the only hotel in the Isle of Elba to have been
included in the authoritative guide, "Locande d'Italia",
edited by the Slow Food association. Over the last few years, Slow
Food has boosted, with its guide Osterie d'Italia, the spreading
of a new style of eating out and has asserted its philosophy: rediscovery
of traditions, respect for local features, care for quality: but
above all it has always given pride of place to customer satisfaction
and respect for operators. The same goals and the same intentions
that have led to the publication of the new guide, Locande D'Italia:
650 addresses specially selected by Slow Food, for a stop along
the way, for relaxing after a busy day or spending a peaceful holiday.
An anthology of places - small, family-run hotels and holiday farms,
bed and breakfasts and guesthouses, flats and hostels where to rediscover
the culture of hospitality and a pleasure made of simplicity and
politeness, the charms of tradition and reasonable prices. An honour
for the discerning ones, as Ilio boutique hotel has "what it
takes" and a really special way to treat its guests: a friendly
welcome and perfectly customised services, which are tailored to
the customer just like a haute-couture dress. The Ilio Hotel is
a unique, different place: it stands out for its strict respect
for the environment and its unbounded love for the purest local
traditions in the delicious dishes prepared by its chef, Vincenzo
Marzocchi, that make the most of the local catch, and in the excellent
wine list. The jewel in the crown: a friendly but impeccable welcome
in its 19 lovely rooms, that take their names from Mediterranean
plants, rooms that are tastefully appointed and equipped with all
mod-coms. Peace, relax and an uncontaminated nature are the elements
of the wild, varied landscape of Capo Sant'Andrea that surrounds
it: beaches of poignant beauty, reefs polished and carved by the
waves, myriad hues of green and the gaudy colours of sweet-smelling
flowers.
