Romantic stays in Verona in search of Shakespeare’s heroine
Stay in Verona and recall the romantic story of Romeo and Juliet: to coincide with the film “Letters to Juliet” which was shot on location in Verona and is due to be released in May, the Due Torri Hotel Baglioni offers you the chance to experience this beautiful city for yourself.
This Veronese hotel is also the location chosen by the studios for the world premiere of the film with the director and international cast attending.
The package, created on this occasion by the Due Torri Hotel Baglioni and named, “I can resist anything except temptation”, is for guests who would like to experience the magical atmosphere that brings the Shakespearean myth closer to the contemporary world. The book by Lise and Ceil Friedman which was the inspiration for the film starring Amanda Seyfried and Vanessa Redgrave, tells the story of the numerous letters sent by young girls to Juliet every year. The Due Torri Hotel Baglioni offers the chance to stay in splendour and to follow the trail of film throughout the city
Housed in a 14th century palazzo, the elegant rooms of the hotel are equipped with the most modern comforts and will be decorated with rose petals and candles during your stay. To bring the story of Juliet to life, the Due Torri Hotel Baglioni joins “Il mito di Giulietta”, a romantic tour through the streets as shot in the movie “Letters to Juliet”: this charming itinerary that begins from Juliet’s balcony leads up to Ponte Pietra, passing through Piazza Erbe and Piazza Dante, without forgetting the enchanting view offered by Castel San Pietro. Curiosities, historical insights and about 70 letters written to Juliet through the years enrich the route.
The hotel also offers guests the opportunity to attend a performance of the touring show, “Sulle tracce di Giulietta” with artists acting out the famous love story in their exact locations throughout the city. The very creative show concludes with a tasting of wines from the Veneto.
This complete hotel package offering chocolates and a glass of Prosecco in the room on arrival, along with a delicious breakfast each day and a dinner in the Brunello Lounge & Restaurant, allows guests of the Due Torri Hotel Baglioni to live the myth of Juliet whilst also enjoying excellent accommodation and exclusive food and wine experiences.
