Summer Epic Events Rome and Paris – Exclusive Encounters

Rome this summer, 500,00 Pilgrims descending for the 2025 Jubilee. Also, in Rome the long awaited for Caravaggio exhibition showcasing 24 masterpieces including some rarely seen works and recently rediscovered pieces. Located at the National Gallery of Ancient Art Palazzo Barberini, explores Caravaggio’s career and influence on religion, society and art. Caravaggio, known as Baroque’s Bad Boy, is drawing in art lovers, more than 600,000 tickets have been sold to the exhibition which closes July 6.

Paris Fondation Louis Vuitton which is known for its blockbuster events doesn’t disappoint this summer either. David Hockney, one of the most influential artists of the 20th and 21st centuries, has been invited to take over the entire building for an exhibition that is exceptional in its scale and its originality. 

Our VIP three-hour Private Access led by the Curator of the exhibition solves the crowd problem. And yes, we have clients attending privately.

David Hockney 25, opened in April and closes on August 31, 2025, brings together more than 400 of his works (from 1955 to 2025) including paintings from international, institutional, and private collections, as well as works from the artist’s own studio. Foundation David Hockney has been personally involved in every aspect of the exhibition and has, together with his partner and studio manager Jean-Pierre Gonçalves de Lima, chosen to focus particularly on the past 25 years while also including the iconic early works, offering visitors a rare insight into his creative universe, spanning seven decades. 

Again, we are not partial to crowds, and can offer VIP Exclusive Access.

Benjamin stayed two years ago and loved his stay, a video call revealed a tailor in his suite hemming his pants! Although the summer heat slayed me, I wanted to discover the refurbishing and dropped in for a 5-hour leisurely lunch site inspection day. SWOON!

Italian-inspired sophistication awaits you at Hotel Eden. The legendary 98 room hotel is dressed to the nines with style and panache. Located in the heart of Rome, it’s merely a nine-minute walk to Trevi Fountain and the Spanish Steps. Historic 19th century property two blocks from Villa Borghese, Michelin starred restaurant La Terrazza, with drop dead views of the Eternal City, ringed by private gardens that act as a buffer from the outside hustle and bustle of the city.

In the elegantly paneled La Libreria on the ground floor, guests can relax with cocktails mixed and served on spot from the drinks trolley, background piano music- Inspired!

The legendary rooftop bar, Il Giardino is not to be missed, delightful aperitivo spot or long 5-hour lunch as I enjoyed! Uncompromisingly beautiful rooms and public spaces, luxurious and forever elegant.

Sophisticated rooms and suites all have enormous bathrooms to die for – the marble sinks are breathtakingly beautiful, absolute decadence in gold and white, and for me, the pièce de résistance, deep soaking tubs.

Since 1889, this grand dame has been known for legendary service. The hospitality has attracted celebrities since the Golden Age of Hollywood, many of whom are captured in the enthralling black-and-white photos lining the staircase leading to the rooftop restaurants.

Eden Indeed!

Hotel Eden, Rome- Highly Recommend!
