Luxury in hospitality has changed its skin. It’s no longer just about a majestic lobby or an Instagram-worthy room. Today, intentionality is required: spaces that welcome with sincerity, materials that breathe authenticity, and experiences that extend beyond the stay, experiences that inspire new ways of living, well beyond the hotel walls.
And it is precisely at the table that this new luxury reveals its most human side. Because dining in a hotel is not just an act of nourishment: it’s a ritual. Breakfast can become the first memory of an unforgettable day. Dinner can turn into the most intimate moment of the journey. And in all these moments, tableware design is the invisible stage that amplifies the experience.
When a guest touches a Costa Verde porcelain piece, they feel more than functionality. They feel the texture that reflects the care in its making, the strength that ensures durability, the design that honours tradition while speaking a contemporary language. It is this intentionality that distinguishes a luxury table: the conscious choice of pieces that not only serve, but communicate, and tell a story, with purpose.
In an era where time is more precious than gold, hospitality is challenged to create experiences that last. That means careful curation of materials that not only withstand daily use but also enhance comfort and evoke emotion. Porcelain is, by nature, a celebration of longevity: durable, beautiful, and sustainable. In a disposable world, it stands as the quiet luxury of permanence. It means something. And we need symbols, and meanings, that truly matter.
The concept of creative hospitality goes beyond interior design. It is a living hospitality, involving guests and staff in a shared narrative of care. At the table, that means more than selecting elegant plates: it’s about considering how each detail contributes to well-being, aesthetic pleasure, and the feeling of living a unique moment.
When a hotel serves its cuisine on Costa Verde porcelain, it is declaring its philosophy: the guest experience deserves to be cared for in every sense, from architecture to plating, from the silence of the room to the sound of conversation around the table.
A stay is not just a parenthesis in the traveller’s life. It is, more often than not, a renewal. The curious, selective, and thoughtful traveller takes home new lessons, about comfort, well-being, and what it means to live more intentionally. Many of these lessons happen around the table, because that is where quality time is shared, the new definition of luxury.
TH2 chooses Costa Verde because it believes the table is the heart of hospitality. And porcelain is more than a serving object: it’s a language of design, sustainability, and belonging. A hotel that serves with intention always serves beyond the meal, it serves memory, emotion, and future.
