Ignazio and Maggio Cipriani
Mr. C
Mr. C Residences, Coconut Grove, FL.
Mr. C is a hospitality and residential property brand founded by brothers Ignazio and Maggio Cipriani. Members of the fourth generation of the Cipriani family, internationally renowned for restaurants, landmark event spaces, lounges, and residences, Ignazio and Maggio were uniquely qualified to conceptualize a hospitality and residential brand that would bring the best of Old World and modern luxury together for today’s most sophisticated clientele.
Both brothers Ignazio and Maggio had experienced hospitality on an international level while working for the family business, and this greatly influenced the development and vision for the Mr. C brand, ultimately defining its feel and ethos. This mindset is a commitment to making today’s travel experience effortless through sophisticated design, Old World simplicity, and European glamour.
As young travelers commuting between Europe and the United States, the brothers began seeking out ideal locations to launch and grow their brand. They selected the classically elegant community of Beverly Hills in Los Angeles to introduce their
first Mr. C hotel. It was then followed by Miami with Mr. C Coconut Grove.
