Mezzatorre Hotel

Hotels Own Introduction

A Cliffside Retreat in Ischia
Perched on a rocky promontory at the northwest edge of Ischia, Mezzatorre gazes out over its own secluded bay, offering tranquility and unmatched access to the island’s crystalline waters. Just a short drive from the charming towns of Forio and Lacco Ameno—reachable via complimentary shuttle—the hotel also neighbors the historic San Montano Bay, where the Greeks first arrived on Italian shores.

Where History Meets Nature
Set within seven hectares of unspoiled landscape, Mezzatorre Hotel & Thermal Spa is a place where time slows down and the past feels present. Originally a 16th-century watchtower built by the Aragonese, the estate evolved under the care of the Dukes of Rancidello and later became a cultural haven under poet Luigi Patalano. Now part of the Pellicano Hotels Group, Mezzatorre reflects the elegance and spirit of Italian heritage, wrapped in natural beauty.

Spaces That Soothe and Inspire
Winding trails through pine-scented greenery, thermal pools carved into the rocks, and a private bay for sun-soaked swims create a rhythm of relaxation and escape. Interiors are airy and refined, with warm brass accents and nostalgic design touches that make each room feel both classic and fresh. A heated pool and tennis court add to the pleasure of your stay.

A Vision of Italian Style
Under the creative direction of Marie-Louise Sciò, Mezzatorre becomes more than a hotel—it’s a living story of art, culture, and well-being. Every detail, from the scent of the sea air to the curve of an armchair, is designed to transport. As Truman Capote once described it, this is a “strangely enchanted place”—and once you arrive, you may not want to leave.
