San Domenico Palace, housed in a Taormina convent dating back to the 14th century, is ready for its close up.
It’s easy to see why the luxurious 111-room hotel was chosen. Its rooms and suites are spread across two wings: one dating back to the 14th century and one added in 1896 before the convent was converted into one of Europe’s first grand hotels. The new interiors, designed by Naples-based architect Valentina Pisani, blend history with modernity: Marble surfaces, smoked mirrors and bronze details complement a neutral palette that doesn’t compete with the property’s spectacular views.
Walking through the property’s quiet cloisters and salons is like browsing an art gallery. Several sculptures, paintings and stoneworks from the Dominican Order’s collection were salvaged during the restoration — some pieces have never seen the light of day before now — while contemporary installations with classical nods offer a fresh perspective.
