Located in Oletta in the heights of Saint Florent, U Palazzu Serenu is blessed with an amazing view of the Agriates desert, the Nebbiu mountains, and the Gulf of Saint Florent. The building’s exterior is that of a 17th century Florentine-style palace, with a square tower and remarkably well preserved architecture. The interior has had a subtle designer makeover by the interior designer Nathalie Battesti, a former student of André Putman and Christian Liaigre. As you explore the bar, salon, or the restaurant, you will discover works by Anish Kapoor, Daniel Arsham, Paul de Pignol, Wendy Wischer, Udo Nöger, Manuel Mérida, and Yvan Rebyj.
Refined luxury and serenity predominate in the rooms, which boast unique pieces by Kim Tschang Yeul and Conrad Marca-Relli.
