Today’s PLACES features Francis Ford Coppola’s 9-suite hotel, the Palazzo Margherita, in the director’s ancestral hometown in the southern Italian region of Basilicata. Originally built in 1892, the hotel was designed by Jacques Grange. In an interview with Vogue, according to the director, “Running a hotel is like making a movie; it’s all about putting on a show. You start with an idea, a theme–a leisure palazzo, for example–and then you pay attention to a million details. And whether you’re staying in a hotel or watching a film, it’s those details that provide the experience.”
