Palazzo Versace, the world’s first fashion-branded hotel, has opened within China’s Grand Lisboa Palace Resort Macau. This makes it only the second Palazzo Versace hotel in the world after Dubai.
Taking over one of the resort’s three towers, the hotel offers 271 rooms and suites across 12 floors.
Guests are welcomed at the expansive lobby by a magnificent representation of Versace’s home in Milan – the Palazzo at Via Gesù 12 that houses the Versace Atelier – crafted from over 80,000 hand-laid enamel mosaic tiles. The Medusa head that symbolizes the House, the geometric Greca motif, and the Barocco print are each rendered in alternate craft finishes – as decorative sculptures, lush custom carpets, and incorporated into terrazzo floors and mosaics. A design expression unique to Palazzo Versace Macau interplays this Italianate aesthetic with symbols rooted in local Chinese custom – the chrysanthemum flower and an ornate dragon – which feature throughout the hotel.
The Italian Palazzo feel from the hotel’s public areas continues to the private rooms through bespoke linens and upholsteries, Versace Home textiles and lighting, and Italian terrazzo flooring and mosaics.
Amenities include two Italian restaurants, a wellness retreat, personal training studio, and indoor and outdoor swimming pools.
Completing the full Versace lifestyle are a selection of wellness offerings, including spa facilities with private treatment rooms, a Versace rendition of the Turkish Hammam, and indoor and outdoor swimming pools.
