Doing The J. Paul Getty Way

J. Paul Getty is one of the world's most moneyed men who owns the monumental villa known as La Posta Vecchia. The majestic villa is located in Palo Laziale, south of Ladispoli, that lies 22 miles in Northwestern Rome and about 14 miles from the exalted Leonardo da Vinci airport. It is set behind hard iron gates amid a decorous garden in an 8-acre park. Getty decided to sell his exquisite treasure in 1990 because of some quiet reasons.

The villa still exhibits Getty's classic antique collection, from the steel doors to home furnitures. It also has escape passages and other security devices to protect the famous man and his family from crashers. In 1970, after the awful kidnapping of Getty's son, he exchanged for money the villa. It then became a private house until it became an awesome and distinctive hotel in 1990. The hotel now preserves Getty's Roman artifacts collection by coming up with a Mini museum that displays them.

The said hotel has 14 extravagantly decorated suites that have a outrageous price range of 640,000L to 2,140,000L a night. It also serves ornate international cuisines for breakfast and lunch, and holds a solemn dinner every evening for its renown guests. It is locked from January 15 to March 30, so better have your reservation now to ensure a kingly vacation.
