Choose your bed linens at Italian hideaway

Guests at the Palazzo Sasso on Italy’s Amalfi Coast were given a choice in their bed linens when the hotel hideaway reopened this month.

On the day of their arrival, guests will find a “Sleeping Menu” on their pillow. There, they can register their preference for one of three linens from the exclusive Italian house Frette. Or they may decide to change to a different linen every day.

Located in the medieval village of Ravello, the hotel overlooks the Mediterranean Sea. The restored palace was built in the 12th century. Information: 1-800-225-4255; www.palazzosasso.com.
