ROMEO HOTEL
History & Story
Located in the Palazzo Lauro, historic headquarters of the Lauro Naval Fleet and symbol of a hardworking Naples forever dedicated to its maritime vocation, the Romeo hotel, inaugurated in 2008, is the most innovative hotel in town, a perfect mix of design, contemporary art and fine antiques. During the renovation project, supervised by the illustrious Japanese firm Kenzo Tange & Associates, the focus was on the elements of modernity and a dialogue with the surrounding natural landscape, which is in constant evolution. Glass façades represent the transparency of the sea; curvilinear shapes evoke the waves; the lack of structural barriers deceives the eye by giving the impression of being on a ship’s deck.
