Palazzo Margherita is a nine bedroom luxury hotel located in Bernalda, a picturesque small town in Basilicata only three hours away from the Amalfi Coast ! A dream come true has been defined by Francis Ford Coppola, offering ancient wine cellars, historic sites and intimate cooking classes. Palazzo Margherita can be rented on sole use basis for weddings, special events, conventions and top end meetings. The Pollino National Park is near by with spectacular mountain trails and wild life while Matera, UNESCO World Heritage Site with ancient cave dwellings, known as Sassi, is only 40 minutes away. The opulent salon, inspired by the films of the great Italian director Luchino Visconti, is during the day a place for reading, playing cards, enjoying afternoon tea and drinks; at night, it becomes a cinema, equipped with professional-quality sound and projection, and a vast database of movies, including Francis’s personally-curated collection of Italian classics. The Salon will also host occasional concerts and other live performances.
