Celebrity Gossip: Hotels Owned by Celebrities
Palazzo Margherita, Italy – Owned by Francis Ford Coppola
Set in Southern Italy’s hilltop village of Bernalda, the hometown of Francis Ford Coppola’s grandfather, Palazzo Margherita is perhaps the most intimate and personal of all the properties the actor owns through Coppola Resorts. He purchased the revered but crumbling 19th century palazzo in 2004, and, with the help of some illustrious architects, designers and artisans, he transformed it into one of Italy’s most charming boutique hotels.
With a stay here, guests will have the opportunity to sleep in a suite designed by a Coppola family member, watch movies selected by Mr. Francis himself, lounge in a wonderful garden where Sofia Coppola got married, and explore the stunningly beautiful region of Basilicata, which the award-winning film director calls “the real Italy”.
