About Ca Pisani
Ca? Pisani is a member of Design Hotels. Ca? Pisani Molfetta is a typical small palace of the Venetian nobility of the late 1300?s, modified at the end of the 16th century, the period in which the fai??ade with its ?piano nobile? (noble floor) balcony was built. The present restorations are the work of Architect Roberto L. Canovaro, who has recuperated the original architectural volumes and the characteristic elements of the ancient building, transforming it into a 30 room hotel and re-interpreting its interiors, in art-deco style in a contemporary key note. As a whole, the style is inspired by the avant-guard trends which blossomed in the period between the two Wars. The lobby recalls the essential forms of Futurism, with a wealth of marble and walnut wood; the walls of the rooms are geometrically articulated by painting treatments that bring to mind the graphics of Mondrian, in soft tones like pastel mustard yellow, terracotta, orange, beige and gray. Eye catchers in the rooms, are elements in silver and amaranth, leather armchairs, expressly designed wardrobes and ?supporting furniture?, and beds from the period 1930 and 1940, all original pieces, each one different from the next, and all patiently collected from all over Italy. The rooms are equipped with the most up-to-date technology: remote control door opening with transponder key, room darkening by electric curtains, direct telephone, satellite TV, mini-bar, room safe, personal computer hook-up, ADSL lines, complimentary WiFi connection, sprinklers and smoke detectors. A fax machine is available upon request. The bathrooms are in an innovative material called ?starlight? which creates the effect of small shining stars; and they are equipped with hydro-systems, hair-driers and towel warmers.
