The new face of Capri Tiberio Palace. Terrace suite, installations and modern art:

renovation of one of the oldest hotels of the island brings a new act of the Capri legend on stage

Capri – CAPRI TIBERIO PALACE, since the early twentieth century

the favourite destination for the most sophisticated and elegant

international set, is opening its 2013 season with major changes

which once again affirm the absolute uniqueness of this magic

place, unequalled throughout the island.

This exclusive 5 star hotel, located in the high middle of the island,

just a short stroll away from the famous Piazzetta, but in an

intimate and sheltered position, is giving both historic clients and

new guests improvements and new suites which tell the essence

and most authentic soul of the Tiberio Palace.



Concept

Capri as a crossroads of the

world, an international meeting

point for enthusiastic travellers

and incurable bon vivants:

curious and refined clients, who

enjoy hints of contemporary

design, yet are fully attuned to

the tradition of the island and

appreciate its values.

It was with them in mind that

Giampiero Panepinto, the

interior designer who thought

up the concept of the rooms

and common areas, has created

a sophisticated mix&match of

styles, stealing colours,

perfumes and atmosphere of

the island and presenting them

again in a contemporary key,

blending them in with the

eclectic decoration elements

Outdoors and Lobby

The Mediterranean soul

appears in the optical white

used for the accessories,

essential and linear, and for the

shutters which mark the façade,

as well as in the rich

Mediterranean plants which

decorate the terrace and lobby

of the Hotel.

When you cross the threshold,

you immediately feel you are a

guest at the house of a great

traveller, richly endowed with

reminiscences, feelings and

objects. Each space is taken up

by seats, niches, mirrors of

everyday familiarity, and in

each corner, there are libraries

for the guests to page through.

Eclectic and carefully chosen

fittings are to be found in the

Lounge and Living area, a mix

between Design, memorabilia

and vintage items, seen through

a new approach based on the

use of 50s and 70s optical

inspiration fabrics which confer

a relaxed yet very high level

style on the place, with corners

to relax or converse in and

reading areas organised in

small and comfortable

"alcoves".



Rooms and suites

The décor of rooms and suites -

55 altogether - emerges as an

artful balance of colours which,

customised according to

matching colour themes,

subdivide them according to

exposure and size. Dusty azures

and turquoise, saffron yellow,

neutral and coral shades are

the hues which lead one along,

and which we find again in the

interior decoration fabrics and

headboards, with graphic or

nature-inspired motifs made

exclusively for the Hotel by

Dedar and Limonta.

Wide terraces and balconies

afford views over the blue sea

of Marina Piccola and the white

roofs of the heart of Capri, and

are one of the most attractive

features of the Hotel. The floors

show a play of mixed materials,

with multi-coloured majolica

set into the wooden slat

parquet.

The baths, made of full slabs of

travertine and decorated with

mosaic friezes, are equipped

with large tubs or shower

areas. With its load of

contemporary and vintage

items from all around the

world, each room has its own

story to tell, different from all

others.

The jewels in Capri Tiberio

Palace's crown are certainly its

lovely suites. The Hollywood

style Bellevue Suite, and now

this year also the Capri Suite

and the Pan Am Suite.

The Bellevue Suite is a flat

elegantly decorated with pieces

of interior decoration and

antiques artfully chosen to

match, and fitted out with a

living area provided with a

decorative chimney and an

incredible double private

terrace with view.

On demand, the Bellevue Suite

can be connected to a double

bedroom with a terrace, thus

turning into a single large flat

measuring about 150 square

metres and hosting up to 4

people

This Suite is also connected to

the Mojito Terrace,

“belvedere” with a 360° view

over the Mediterranean sea, the

mountain of Capri and the roofs

and terraces of the upper part

of the town of the same name.

On this terrace there is a stone

“splash pool” for 8 people,

overlooking the whole island,

and a teak platform fitted with

sun beds and, on demand, one

can enjoy open air massages.

A scenic installation with 50

small model aeroplanes and an

original vintage globe shows us

we are in the Pan Am Suite.

The name echoes the

atmosphere of the rooms which

are reminiscent of the heydays

of the airline company and its

moving associations: John

Fitzgerald Kennedy, the 60s in

the US, Miami and Cuba with

their lights and incredible

colours.

The Capri Suite is a homage to

the glamour of film stars of the

'50s. This 100 square metre

flat, consisting of a bedroom

and a large separate living

room, is dominated by an

installation of original

magazines of the '60s, touched

up with colour lamps in pop art

style. One immediately notices

a historic cover of Life

Magazine with Sofia Loren and

a black and white photo of Liz

Taylor and Richard Burton,

who were also guests at the

hotel in one of its many

previous lives.

Terrace suite

This year, your stay will be made

even more pleasant thanks to

the Terrace Suites: a new

format which represents the

most authentic essence and soul

of Capri, with breathtaking

lights, perfumes, colours and

views.

These one bedroom suites

feature ample private terraces,

as large as the rooms: verandas

completely fitted out and

equipped with couches,

armchairs, sunbeds and table,

laid out on hand painted Vietri

majolica floors.

Great arcades draw spaces with an effect of great size and

airiness, projecting the rooms outwards, towards the sea.

From the terraces, one can admire a matchless view over

the sea and Capri, or simply relax enjoying peace and

silence after having closed the soft outside curtains.

Each suite is customised and made different from all the

others thanks to vintage furnishing accessories, ethnic

furniture and design items, the only fil rouge being the

original wooden fish made using hand painted recycled

material.



Restaurant

Terrazza Tiberio is the Capri Tiberio Palace

restaurant: 60 covers between the main hall and a

splendid terrace overlooking the southern side of

the island, in a chic contemporary environment, but

with clear local identity.

Starting this year, Terrazza Tiberio - the leading

restaurant of the whole island - will accompany its

menus based on a strong regional Mediterranean

identify focused on the quality and seasonal use of

ingredients - with a range of kosher-certified dishes

for practising Jewish clients.

Each dish, prepared according to the prescriptions

of the Jewish religion and guaranteed by strict

rabbinical control - to ensure both compliance with

the complex prescription of religious law on

nutrition and freshness, quality, taste and perfumes

awaiting discovery - will be served in a separate

part of the restaurant, reserved to the consumption

of such food, in strict compliance with religious law.

The decoration of the room features an installation-

sculpture by the Florentine artist Marina Calamai,

representing a composition of sweets and cakes

which sublimate the temptations of gluttony, in a

balance between irony and surreal fascination.

Alongside the flagship proposals of the kitchen

such as Potatoes and squids with herbs, anchovy and

pistachio sauce and Mezzi paccheri pasta with

amberjack, mussels and bottarga, with this season

will also find such strictly kosher products as

Couscous with haraimi sauce and Ground and

skewered meat kebab.

The Wine menu provides a selection of the great

wines of Campania, with an excursion into such

excellent wine producing areas as Friuli, Sicily and

Sardinia. Strictly Italian sparkles, Franciacorta

Trentino and Veneto and a selection of Champagnes

from the best producers in France.

Jacky Bar

On the mezzanine floor, through the great entrance

terrace, you go into the Jacky Bar, meeting place for

guests and patrons of the island. It has a large scenic

terrace, with one of the best views over Capri's

sunsets, where you can enjoy sipping a "Caesar

Tonic Pepper" - the signature cocktail of the bar -

before diving into the Capri night

life.

A bar of contemporary inspiration, with large

counter decorated with powerful graphic motifs

and designed around the century old palm tree

which goes through its ceiling, the Jacky Bar has an

atmosphere somewhere between Cotton Club and

Cuba of the 60s, following a vaguely nostalgic vein

which can also be found in the rooms. An elegant

white grand piano and a wall decorated with

authentic Borsalino panama hats make a beautiful

impression, bringing those worlds back to mind.



SPA Tiberio

One of the most inspiring areas of the hotel is Spa Tiberio, a

true oasis of well being, where the guests can live over the

emotions of a day passed on the shores of the Mediterranean

through an authentic experience of the senses.

Every detail of the spa area has been carefully designed: a

tatami flipflop installation at the entrance of the reception

receives the guests in a Zen atmosphere reminiscent of the

wisdom of Oriental sciences. 1200 square metres laid out

over two floors including a large indoor swimming pool with a

whirlpool, a homae to the ancient Roman baths of Tiberius,

which extends through large glass window panes to the

outdoor solarium of the main terrace, a “Waterway” and a

“Treatment Area”.

A door cut into the tuff leads to a water-therapy

itinerary, where one of the precious essence of the

Mediterranean, chosen by the guest, is released into the

air. Through a sequence of four therapeutic showers -

connective, Scotch, emotional and water jet - the guest

reaches the relax area, steeped in a relaxing blue light,

with a Turkish bath, sauna and a jet whirlpool.

The spa also offers a wide range of massages and face and

body treatments by Sodashi, an Australian company famous

around the world for its skin care products based on totally

natural ingredients, used pure.

Suited to both men and women, the vast range

of Sodashi products is formulated using a

unique combination of biochemistry,

aromatherapy and Ayurvedic principles, with

all the regenerating and anti-aging effects

which come from vegetable essences and other

natural ingredients extracted because of their

purity, power and therapeutic quality.

It is coincidence that in Sanskrit the word

Sodashi means "Integrity, Purity and Light",

the values behind the company and its

products.

The treatment area is decorated with an

essential design, based on absolute white and

steeped in an inspiring blue light which brings

to mind the reflections of the sea. Six spacious

and comfortable luxury treatment rooms, fitted

with shower and wardrobe, one a Due SPA for

treating pairs of people, one reserved to

whirlpool and the other to shiatsu treatment.

The itinerary finishes with a relax area, where

you can refresh and hydrate yourself with

delicious infusion or tea.

Fitness

Attached to the spa, the Fitness Club has latest

generation Technogym machinery with

treadmills, workout benches, weights and

equipment for calisthenics, including Pilates.

its guests the pleasure of a Library made exclusively for them

by Taschen, the most important international publishing

house of Art, Photography, Costume and Cinema. The shelves

of the bookshop spread throughout the Lobby and the halls of

the Hotel offer a wide range of works for purchase by the
