The roll out of Bvlgari Hotels & Resorts’ Serpenti Suites is underway, with one suite in each hotel in its portfolio to be decorated with its iconic Serpenti symbol.

For the nearest-to-perfect stay in central London, consider Bvlgari Hotel London – confusingly, the hotel brand uses a V rather than the standard U, as with Bulgari boutiques and jewellery.

Bvlgari Hotel Shanghai, the sixth jewel of Bvlgari’s hospitality collection, is authentically Italian, including the design, hand-crafted furniture, fabrics and detailing.

The soaring property will occupy the 39th through 45th floors of a new ultra-skyscraper near the Tokyo Station.
