Maestro Giancarlo Menotti, founder of the Festival of the Two Worlds, signed the golden book of the Albornoz Palace Hotel on the opening day, with just one word “finalmente!” (finally!). Finally, a new hotel that could accommodate the numerous music, ballet, theatre and art lovers reaching Spoleto to enjoy a fortnight of performing arts. Ever since its opening, the hotel has undertaken a project of hospitality combined with contemporary art which is still in a developing stage. The art-lover will certainly appreciate the amazing variety of art works, enough to quench his passion, whereas the unknowing traveller will certainly be surprised by the peculiarity of this unique hotel. But for both the welcome will be warm as if emerging from the intense colours composing Sol Lewitt’s Wall Drawing which adorns the lobby.
