In the heart of Mayfair, between two shopping sprees, Hibiscus offers a stylish and contemporary setting in which Claude Bosi creates a unique cuisine. It is personal, daring and authentic but also masterful, balanced and almost obvious. Seasonal produce on the one hand. And intuition and modern techniques of this Grand Chef, who learned the ropes in particular with Alain Passard and Michel Rostang, on the other. A very special moment.

Palazzo Manfredi: immersed in ancient Rome (Italy)

This 17C Palazzo, with merely thirteen rooms and two suites, was built over the ruins of the Ludus Magnus, the gymnasium used by the gladiators of the Eternal City. And it boasts spectacular views of the Colosseum, the Imperial Forum, and the Domus Aurea. Ancient Rome, intimate, with all modern conveniences, only for you. Unique.
