In the Turin headquarters of the CNA (National Confederation of Crafts and Small and Medium Enterprises), the historic Turin residence Villa Sassi was awarded as Best wedding location in the third edition of “È-vento di turismo”, an event organized and conceived by Antonio Chiarenza.
“We are very proud of this award which comes as recognition at city and regional level.” says Patrizia Reviglio, owner and CEO of Villa Sassi. “Like all catering and hospitality businesses, we come from very difficult years, in which it was not easy to make everything work, maintaining excellent quality. We tried to make the most of the pandemic period, drawing on psychological and economic strengths, to ensure that grit prevailed.. This led us to continue working and investing in Villa Sassi, taking advantage of a moment of forced pause to also do very invasive and strategic work. We made a virtue of necessity and I believe this was the winning card for us”.
