Ready to dream? Good: we’re heading off to Rio de Janeiro. Exactly, in Brazil: this is where Santamargherita brought the Italian éclat of marble floors and walls made in Italy.

The prestigious Hilton Barra Hotel has in fact been inaugurated in the coolest area of Rio de Janeiro, just 30 minutes away from Galeão International Airport. Santamargherita’s products have been used for the internal walls, floors, bathroom surfaces and other indoor and outdoor interior design elements.

The magic of Brazil never ceases to amaze: stunning nature, fabulous sea, nature and wildlife are probably unique worldwide. And yet, today Brazil is increasingly discovering a new spirit: that of cities, design and style.
A country on the launch pad, in constant pursuit of beauty. O rather, of quality: there is certainly no need to look for Qbeauty in Brazil, because it finds you first, it amazes you and leaves you there to admire it speechless before the next stunning view. Not to mention the Carnival: the attraction-event that made Rio de Janeiro famous worldwide is fascinating, mysterious, 100% Carioca style… but Brazil and Rio are much more.

Those who say that Brazil is a mosaic of different cultures and societies, stratified and not always in perfect accord, are right: it’s all true. As is the fact that one cannot but be bewitched by the city that, more than any other city in the world, is able to give the most charming image of itself: Rio de Janeiro. Here, the Hilton Barra Hotel represents the quintessence of luxury: one of the top ten luxury hotels of the city, it is located in a strategic position in relation to commercial areas, shopping districts and the most stylish restaurants. This is an actual fact and evidence that the stay here is perfect. But the true added value of the Hilton Barra Hotel of Rio de Janeiro is its uniqueness: in the service, of course, but also in its powerful aesthetic impact, even more sumptuous because of the marble floors and walls by Santamargherita.

Entering the Hilton Barra hotel means finding oneself enveloped by beauty all around: a neat, true perfection that without being ostentatious or loud exerts a very powerful charm. It’s the chic touch of details, which in their sumptuousness envelop every guest and make them feel at ease, or rather more than that: pampered by luxury.

Marble walls, floors and surfaces create a refined and elegant environment without being excessive. Used both indoors and outdoors, everything is measured down to the millimetre, every element is placed exactly for a superlative final effect.

From the areas of the Executive Lounge to the meeting rooms, from the rooms to the bathrooms, marble floors are a leitmotif that, with their innate elegance enhance the appeal of every environment.

Gilberto Gil, the distinguished Carioca singer, used to say that the city “continua indo, continua sendo”: Rio keeps on moving, keeps on being. The relentless Carioca pace is now enriched by an Italian note, the one by Santamargherita.
