1910 patrician house, former meeting point for artists and intellectuals in the 1930s. (So if you suddenly feel smarter and more creative...that's why.)

Michelin-rec’d Il Cavallino resto’s sophisticated twist on local fare is a must-nosh (the wine selection is sublime too, of course).

17th-century building in a stunning location in the heart of one the world's great cities. Beats working.

Once the home of aristocrat Marquis Nicola Sasso the Third, this refurbished palace almost looks like it hasn’t been a day since his family lived here.

Peaceful courtyard is the perfect place to unwind after the day's adventures.
