Meeting FacilitiesMeeting facilities are available in the Hotel Splendido, and also in the adjacent Cervara Abbey. The Hotel Splendido manages the Abbey, assuring professional service. The Splendido contains two meeting rooms, the Ginepro, which holds up to 160 guests, and the Pitosforo, which holds up to 50. The latest audio-visual and communications equipment can be supplied, for example front and back projection for both slides and video.
Cervara AbbeyOriginally a Benedictine Monastery outcrop, Cervara over looks the Gulf of Tigullio from a rocky hillside which dominates the coastal road between Santa Margherita and Portofino. Founded in 1364, it lived periods of glory and power and moments of desolation always coming back to life and prosperity. The Abbey offers four adjoining salons which can also be used individually, ideal for banquets and meetings with a maximum capacity of 260 persons for banquets and 240 for meetings, theatre style. The purpose of the present restoration is to recover the original architectural structures and social functions of the Abbey. The beautiful restored areas from the Cloister to the Chapel and the function rooms, the Italian Garden and the Wistaria Court are ideal venues for every type of event, weddings, artistic and cultural exhibitions, company weddings and fashion shows.
