Hotel Raya, Panarea, Italy
Hotel Raya 4 Stars
"Pared-down, immaculate suites scattered over rocky hillside, a luxury hotel for the grown-ups."
The Press Say
"Like most worldly beauties, the Raya spends far more time asleep than she does awake. Then, come summertime, she opens her eyes, sorts out her dazzle and dances on the tables till dawn." Tatler 08"There might be the odd antique in one room, a huge seashell in another. It’s the sort of style statement only Italians can get away with." Herbert Ypma 05
Hotel Overview
Hotel Raya is a small boutique hotel with eco credentials, split up into three separate buildings to preserve the natural beauty of Panarea, its island location. Each building is a five minute walk from one another, with accommodation uphill from the main service building. The boutique hotel is all about laid-back chic, and suites free spirited travellers who like a bit of luxe in their life.
The facilities
Early in the morning - at 7:30 - the boutique hotel's small bar serves a "Good Morning Panarea" breakfast: an excellent cup of espresso coffee, cappuccino, tea, fruit juice, fresh home-made croissants and cakes. In the evening the Hotel Raya's restaurant serves delicious organic, biodynamic food and cocktails on the high terrace, to stunning sunset-and-sea views.
Only biodegradable products are used in the boutique hotel's kitchen and laundry.
The rooms
The boutique hotel has 30 rooms with large terraces and great views of the volcano Stromboli. Rooms are simple yet comfortable, and the hut-style accommodation makes them more romantic and private.
