The “Craft Experiences” by La Grande Bellezza

Among the many concrete actions that the Starhotels hotel group has activated in support of Italian high craftsmanship, a rich carnet of "Craft Experiences" has been created to be experienced in some of the most important artisan workshops in Venice, Milan, Florence and Rome. A special way of proposing exclusive and quality tourism that is part of the great contemporary patronage project "La Grande Bellezza. The Dream Factory" by Starhotels, in collaboration with Fondazione Cologni dei Mestieri d'Arte, Associazione Oma-Osservatorio dei Mestieri d'Arte and Gruppo Editoriale. Venice, Milan, Rome and Florence are considered temples of savoir-faire and historic destinations of the Grand Tour, where the guests of the precious Starhotels Collezione will also be able to discover and get to know up close some of the workshops and artisan ateliers of excellence that are part of the circuits and networking of the partner institutions. A journey-this one of "La Grande Bellezz"-among tradition, craftsmanship and creativity, through centuries-old workshops and new laboratories ready to show and let guests of an all-Italian, or rather Florentine, hotel chain that passionately protects and promotes the artistic crafts of our heritage, always "with Italy in its heart"! All experiences, upon reservation, can be reserved with the concierges of the Starhotels Collezione in Venice, Milan, Rome and Florence.
