Star-studded food concept
Our food and beverage philosophy is the brainchild of Michelin-starred chef Andrea Ribaldone. With quality and research guaranteed, our talented chef uses this philosophy as a basis for a range of masterfully prepared dishes with his own signature flair. We keep every new dish “fresh, Italian and simple”, relying on local, farm-fresh and seasonal produce to produce healthy, delicious and irresistible menus. Research, passion, experience and creativity are the guiding principles behind every dish, a long journey that culminates in its highest and most delicious expression at the table.
Our new entry
PIZZERIA
The Living Place pizzeria is an invitation to return to simple, genuine flavors: carefully leavened doughs, seasonal ingredients chosen with care, and cooking techniques that bring out authentic tastes. Each pizza is born from the balance between skilled hands and creativity: a crisp crust, a soft heart, and toppings that speak of freshness. Here the oven wraps each creation in warmth, while communal tables gather laughter and convivial moments. Come for an elegant dinner or a casual evening: we serve a pizza that stays in the memory for its simple, sincere goodness.

Elegant & Panoramic
The terrace
Every year, at the first sign of summer, we reopen our indoor/outdoor terrace, a space we are extremely proud of. Spacious, bright and with great views of the pool, we renovated the terrace in 2018 with floor-to-ceiling windows and a new outdoor barbecue. This elegantly appointed space is the ideal setting for breakfast, lunch, cocktails or a candlelight dinner in the gentle summer’s breeze. It is also the perfect spot for private events with indoor/outdoor flair, adjustable lighting, a convenient layout and a strategic location between the dining room and the outdoor pool.
NOT JUST CUISINE
Living Café
A place to socialize, come together or just share a pleasant moment during a busy day, the Living Café is our lively lounge bar at the Living Place Hotel. By day, the bar is buzzing with guests dropping in for amazing coffee, a quick snack or a much-needed refreshment. In the evening, as the lights go down and the vibe takes a more refined turn, you will find the perfect ambiance for an aperitivo, either indoors or on the terrace in the summer, or an after-dinner cocktail with the best lounge music in the background.
VIVI SPORTING CLUB
VIVI POOL BAR
The VIVI Pool Bar is the meeting point by the Olympic-size swimming pool, where great food and drink follow the rhythm of the day. From light, tasty lunches to artisan gelato served from our ice cream cart, all the way to sunset aperitifs, every moment is an opportunity to get together and make the most of your free time.
A place to enjoy your way, between a refreshing dip, something delicious and the pleasure of sharing every moment.
