History
UNA Hotels & Resorts was founded in November 2000 to create a new Italian hotel group focused on business and characterized by a distinctive concept of hospitality, where in Italy there is still today a fragmentation of tourism supply.
- The development started in 2001 with 8 four-stars business hotels, 5 of which opened in Milan.
- In 2003 the company opened its first hotel in Florence, UNA Hotel Vittoria
- In 2004 UNA Hotels & Resorts won a contract of Autostrade per l'Italia for hotels located along the Italian highway named as UNAWAY Hotels.
In few years the group opened hotels in all the main Italian cities: Bologna, Naples, Catania, Rome, Venice and others in Milan, where there are 7 hotels now, including one near Malpensa airport.
In the meantime Tuscany has been a fertile territory where UNA Hotels opened its first resorts in Mugello like UNA Poggio dei Medici and the restored Villa Le Maschere, then in Versilia, where the last opening is UNA Hotel Forte dei Marmi.
In ten years UNA Hotels & Resorts has gained presence throughout the country. The company decided to undergo new business models as franchising and management, for broadening its market and allow an ensemble strategy with other independent Italian hoteliers. Among others UNA Hotel Modena and UNA Hotel One in Siracusa.
