In a move that continues to redefine Europe’s high-luxury hospitality landscape, Emblems Collection, part of the Accor group, has announced the signing of three exquisite properties in Italy, marking a bold step forward in the group’s expansion. Following the earlier addition of the iconic Lucknam Park Hotel & Spa in the English countryside, this latest chapter deepens the brand’s presence across Europe’s most timeless destinations.
Set to open in 2026, the forthcoming hotels include a restored palazzo in the heart of Siena, a countryside estate near Perugia in Umbria, and a sun-drenched masseria in Apulia. Rich in character and steeped in local heritage, each property has been carefully selected to reflect Emblems’ commitment to authentic luxury, impeccable design, and immersive guest experiences. From frescoed ceilings and sculpted gardens to bespoke furnishings and curated artwork, the properties promise to celebrate Italy’s rich cultural narrative through a modern, refined lens.
With this expansion, Emblems’ footprint in Italy grows to four remarkable destinations, and brings its global development pipeline to twelve handpicked properties. Each one is more than a hotel, it is a story, a setting, and a sentiment brought to life with purpose and poise.
The signings were made possible through a close collaboration with AG Group, with special recognition to Ettore Cavallino and the European luxury development team for their instrumental role in bringing this vision to fruition.
As the world’s gaze turns once more to Italy, a country synonymous with beauty, heritage, and grace, Emblems Collection invites travellers to discover a new era of timeless hospitality, one where the art of travel is elevated to something truly exceptional.
