This aristocratic mansion located in the old town of Corfu dates back to 1823 was the residence of Luca Metaxas and his family. Lucas' daughter Victoria, who the hotel is named after, was born in 1901 and passed away in 1993. Recently, the family decided to renovate the 19th century mansion and convert it into a gorgeous boutique hotel, following the steps of their grandmother known by the locals as Siorra Vittoria.
The restorations of the building proceeded with extreme care in order to preserve its authentic style, under the supervision of a talented architect. The interiors transfer you back to another era, influenced by the Venetian architecture and Corfu's cultural heritage. |
The residence is located at 36 Padova str, a nice, quite small street at the center of the old town just a few steps away from the well- known City Hall Square, the Ionian Parliament and the famous arches of the Parisian Liston Square. |
The boutique hotel consists of nine luxurious rooms; seven of them are spread evenly over the two floors of the residence with the exception of the 'Exclusive suite' at the top floor of the residence. The other two superior rooms are individually situated adjacent to the main building. The characteristic wooden staircase leads to the gracious rooms and suites, each one with a unique personality named after the ancestors of the Metaxas family.
All the rooms are equipped with modern comforts and facilities, making your stay a truly memorable experience. Some rooms are interconnecting offering a great convenience for families or groups of four guests.
The brand name furnishings, designed exclusively for the hotel by a famous worldwide company based in Milan, are all color-coordinated and crafted with great attention to detail remind of the residence historic past. The pretty bedrooms are simple appointed with oak wood floors and classy wooden furniture. The walls are painted in soft tones of pink, yellow or combination of both- applying 'stucco venetsiano' technique-. The cozy environment is also enhanced by the fluffy pillows, made of goose quills and the relevant lavish quilts using the best quality of feathers. Alternatively, the room facilities include direct-dial phones, central heating, LCD TV set, DVD player, satellite TV, direct internet access, safe box, dimmer for lights, and mini bar with a variety of refreshments and snacks. The exquisite bathrooms are marbled lined, equipped with a bathtub, separate shower cabin and luxurious amenities such as fluffy towels for the hands, face and body as well as two kinds of bathrobes -cotton or velvet- according to your preferences accompanied by a towel warmer. Furthermore, personal care products are available in every room, including a full range of brand named toiletries, a make up mirror, a professional hairdryer, a digital scale and a sewing kit. |
