L'Albergo della Regina Isabella
L’Albergo della Regina Isabella is located directly on the seashore, in the midst of a peaceful bay surrounded by rocky shores and luscious Mediterranean vegetation. The main entrance of the hotel faces the picturesque square of Santa Restituta, known for the church bearing the same name. It is located near the Archaeological Museum and characteristic antique shops and boutiques. The island’s beauty and thermal baths captivated the illustrious publisher and film director Angelo Rizzoli. In 1956 he decided to enlarge historic Regina Isabella’s thermal baths and build a resort over the ancient Greek - Roman ruins.

After just a few years, Ischia and L’Albergo della Regina Isabella became the centre of attraction for cosmopolitan worldliness. Celebrities such as Richard Burton, Liz Taylor, Maria Callas, Alberto Sordi and William Holden enlivened those popular years making it one of the most exclusive and glamorous destinations.

In more recent years, representatives of the entertainment and business industry, as well as politicians and intellectuals gravitate around the hotel attracted by the prestigious cultural events that are organized in Ischia.
