Italy

Look forward to basking in the same hospitable warmth that greeted Italian movie icons, Sophia Loren and Marcello Mastroianni. Villa Soligo owes its noble Palladian style to its inception in 1782 as the summer hunting lodge for the Counts of Brandolini. Now meticulously restored, this boutique hotel is the epitome of refined luxury, relaxation and state of the art wellness.

Walk past imposing, Romanesque columns framing the entrance. The neoclassical grandeur continues upstairs to the 39 rooms and suites – each one individually designed and sumptuously furnished to reflect the Treviso period style and history of the mansion. You’ll feel immediately at home as you look out onto views of the original water fountain and beautiful parkland, filled with swathes of fragrant pine and cedar trees.

Venice is a fairy-tale of a city with palaces, cathedrals and museums to take your breath away. In our neighbourhood you can get your breath back again. It’s a place where you can escape the noise and bustle, experience genuine local life, and feel refreshed. This is a neighbourhood of true tranquillity. At the heart of the neighbourhood is Hotel Indigo Venice Sant'Elena, a converted 1930s monastery where a peaceful inner sanctuary offers further respite from the bustle. Our neighbours include the elegant red-brick Gothic church of Sant’Elena, built by Augustinian monks in the 11th century and known for its lofty landmark belltower.

In Venice, some palazzos belong to the city; others still belong to a family. Hotel Gabrielli, standing proudly on the Riva degli Schiavoni, is a rare and cherished example of the latter. This is not merely a historic building converted into a hotel; it is a 14th-century Gothic palace that has been the heart and home of the same family, the Perkofers, since 1856. This unbroken lineage imbues the hotel with a soul that simply cannot be replicated. To stay here is to be welcomed not just as a guest, but as a friend of the family, into a home rich with history and genuine warmth.

This palpable sense of heritage is everywhere, from the antique furnishings and Murano chandeliers to the quiet seclusion of the inner courtyard, a true secret garden in the heart of the city. The rooms and suites are a portrait of classic Venetian elegance, many opening onto breathtaking views of the lagoon and the island of San Giorgio Maggiore. The magnificent rooftop terrace offers a panorama that is nothing short of cinematic.

Overlooking the Grand Canal in the heart of Venice, The Gritti Palace boasts one of the most enthralling views of the lagoon city - from the island of San Giorgio Maggiore past landmarks Punta Della Dogana and Santa Maria Della Salute Basilica to the Peggy Guggenheim Collection. Dating to 1475, this noble palace and luxury hotel is a place of exceptional art and elegance that has retained its reassuringly intimate and familiar feel of a private residence. 

A historical treasure where heritage and culture blend with renewed Venetian style, the hotel is a refined version of its iconic self, offering attentive service, a delectable culinary experience and new avenues for relaxation and pleasure. From the design of its signature suites and iconic terraces to the Gritti Epicurean School, Riva Yacht experiences and Riva Lounge and the Gritti Spa branded by Sisley Paris, The Gritti Palace is where multiple generations of elite global influencers gather to explore, taste and celebrate.

Following its restoration, Hotel Danieli, a Four Seasons Hotel, Venice feels less like a grand hotel reborn than a legendary palace newly awakened along the lagoon. Set on Riva degli Schiavoni, just steps from St. Mark’s Square, the property brings together three interconnected historic palazzi under one roof, at its heart the 15th-century Palazzo Dandolo. Since becoming a hotel in 1822, this Venetian landmark has remained one of the city’s most storied addresses; now, after a comprehensive renewal, Four Seasons has reinterpreted its aristocratic spirit and waterfront grandeur through a more refined service philosophy and a more contemporary sense of comfort. The transformation, led by acclaimed French designer Pierre-Yves Rochon, will welcome guests in its first phase with 120 guestrooms and suites, expanding to 176 accommodations by 2027. Many rooms look directly onto the lagoon, and a notably high number of connecting rooms and suites makes the hotel especially well suited to families and traveling companions. Throughout, the design preserves Danieli’s deep historical character while introducing more polished restoration details and modern ease, so that the experience feels less like staying in a museum piece and more like inhabiting a palace still very much in conversation with Venice itself.

Dining remains one of the hotel’s most compelling expressions of character. On the rooftop, Restaurant Terrazza Danieli continues as the property’s spiritual heart, now under the direction of executive chef Adriano Rausa. With indoor and outdoor seating facing the Venetian skyline and lagoon, the restaurant moves from breakfast through dinner with menus shaped by seasonal ingredients from Veneto and nearby islands such as Sant’Erasmo. On the lobby level, Bar Dandolo carries forward the atmosphere of a classic Venetian bar, café, and afternoon tea salon, while a dedicated Terrazza Danieli rooftop bar adds a more complete ritual to evening aperitivo overlooking the water. Together with the Danieli Spa, expected to open later in 2026 with three treatment rooms, a sauna, Turkish bath, and relaxation area, the reimagined Hotel Danieli is no longer simply a relic of old-world glamour. It becomes a true Venetian destination hotel, where historic palaces, lagoon views, classic dining, and contemporary luxury are brought into a more seamless and compelling whole, especially for travelers who want to stay at the very center of the city’s historic beauty while enjoying a more complete, newly elevated version of Venetian luxury.

In the heart of the Venetian Lagoon, on the famed glassmakers’ island of Murano, Hyatt Centric Murano Venice reimagines Italian urban luxury through the seamless fusion of craftsmanship and contemporary design. Housed within a historic former glass factory, the hotel preserves the building’s industrial character while infusing it with refined modern aesthetics and local artistry. Its 119 rooms and suites, including spacious duplex and premium accommodations, feature warm wood tones, hand-blown glass lighting, and tactile fabrics that reflect the island’s artisanal heritage. Large windows frame tranquil views of Murano’s canals or the hotel’s peaceful courtyard, creating an atmosphere of understated elegance and serenity.

Dining celebrates both creativity and locality: Osteriva, the hotel’s signature restaurant, combines Mediterranean flavors with Venetian flair, offering fresh seafood and seasonal ingredients in dishes that are as refined as they are authentic. Along the waterfront, Rivalonga Bar + Lounge serves classic aperitifs and handcrafted cocktails, providing the perfect setting to watch the sunset shimmer across the canal. Guests can unwind in the sauna or steam room, stay active in the 24-hour fitness center, or take advantage of the private water shuttle that connects Murano to Venice’s historic center, as well as nearby Burano and Torcello islands. With its tranquil island setting, artistic soul, and the thoughtful service synonymous with the Hyatt brand, Hyatt Centric Murano Venice offers more than a place to stay, it’s an invitation to experience the culture, design, and quiet rhythm of Venetian life in exquisite style.

A Venetian palace hideaway set in the heart of the Floating City, Ca’di Dio blends history with luxurious modernity. While parts of the hotel’s building date back to 1272, its latest guise gives it a flawless 21st century update that reflects the surroundings in every detail.  Located at the entrance to the Arsenale district where the famous Art Biennale is held, Ca’di Dio is the perfect palace to call home while you explore the city.

There’s no mistaking you’re in Italy when you step into Ca’di Dio. Every detail in its bedrooms and suites showcases Italian design, from jewel bright Murano glass lamps, to fine, locally made fabrics and marble clad bathrooms. Some rooms overlook mimosa and magnolia trees in the hotel’s two peaceful courtyards – others, the lagoon and its fleets of passing gondolas. Splash out on an Altana Suite and enjoy a 360 degree iconic view of San Giorgio and the lagoon from your private terrace. The Venetian theme continues in the charming outdoor VERO Restaurant, with views over the lagoon and dishes inspired by it. The internal courtyard of Essentia Restaurant offers another option for al fresco dining during the summer, whilst local ingredients infuse the classic cocktails served at Alchemia Bar.

Enjoy dreamy, mystical city views from the rooms and suites of Sina Centurion Palace. Housed in a former convent, the hotel stands at the mouth of the Grand Canal close to the Basilica of Santa Maria della Salute. Behind the magnificent Venetian Gothic façade lie stylish, contemporary interiors, a delightful internal courtyard and a restaurant with stunning canal views. The plush, modern rooms and suites are individually styled with more than a touch of Venetian flair. Each one of Sina Centurion Palace’s eclectic rooms has fabulous city views and the Presidential Suite provides romantic views of the Grand Canal.

A meticulously renovated 15th century palace, with its lavish pink façade, sits proudly between Ca’ d’Oro and the Rialto Bridge on the spectacular Grand Canal. Ca' Sagredo Hotel in Venice is a real gem, half hotel, half museum with important works of art by 17th and 18th century artists Sebastiano Ricci, Giambattista Tiepolo, Niccolò Bambini and Pietro Longhi.

This place is truly mesmerising. Ascend the stately marble staircase by Tirali, with an impressive fresco by Longhi, and experience the air of romance and mystery that is uniquely Venice. With several of the rooms and suites providing a canal view, stay in one of Ca’ Sagredo Hotel’s historical grand suites to appreciate 18th century stuccoed ceilings, bas reliefs and elaborately painted wall friezes.

Sina Palazzo Sant’Angelo gathers the shifting light of Venice’s Grand Canal, the intimate scale of a private palazzo, and the ornate detail of traditional Venetian interiors into a boutique hotel that feels quieter and more residential than many of the city’s better-known waterfront addresses. Set directly on the Grand Canal between the Rialto Bridge and St. Mark’s Square, the hotel is within walking distance of major landmarks such as the Accademia Bridge and La Fenice, yet retains a more discreet sense of arrival. Particularly rare for Venice, it offers both a private landing on the Grand Canal for boat access and a pedestrian entrance, giving it an ease that feels especially valuable within the city’s layered urban fabric. The hotel comprises 12 rooms and 14 suites, some facing the Grand Canal, others overlooking a quieter side canal or the internal garden. Throughout, the interiors embrace a classic Venetian style, from silk wall coverings and period furnishings to finely detailed decorative elements, creating an atmosphere of unhurried old-world elegance. Part of the building is Casa Tito, reconstructed in 1954 by architect Angel Scattolin, with classical features such as columns, Corinthian capitals, and molded door frames preserved, lending the property the character of a historic residence adapted for contemporary hospitality.

Its dining and public spaces continue this understated yet carefully composed mood. The American Bar, overlooking the Grand Canal, is an especially inviting place for an aperitivo framed by passing boats and reflected light, while the breakfast room, with its antique wood paneling and more intimate scale, preserves the measured warmth of traditional Italian hospitality. Hidden behind it, an internal garden introduces a rare layer of greenery and quiet to a city so often defined by stone and water. In spirit, Sina Palazzo Sant’Angelo is not a Venice hotel built around theatrical design, but an elegant canal-side residence shaped by its Grand Canal setting, classical Venetian interiors, and boutique scale, particularly suited to travelers who want to stay in the heart of Venice without being entirely overtaken by its crowds and commotion.

Aman Venice occupies a rarefied position on the Grand Canal, housed within the 16th-century Palazzo Papadopoli, where Aman’s signature restraint meets the most opulent chapter of Venetian history. More private palace than hotel, the property unfolds as a living work of art: interiors have been meticulously restored and reimagined by Jean-Michel Gathy, who preserves frescoed ceilings, stucco work, and carved wood details while introducing a quietly contemporary language of proportion, light, and calm. With just 24 individually configured rooms and suites, many retaining original painted ceilings or opening directly onto sweeping canal views—staying here feels less like checking into a hotel than being granted the keys to a noble Venetian residence.

Beyond the rooms, life at Aman Venice centers on spaces few visitors to the city ever encounter: a secluded garden—almost unheard of in Venice, an intimate inner courtyard, and discreet terraces along the water, all designed to slow the pace of the city to an almost suspended stillness. Dining follows the same understated philosophy. At Arva, contemporary Italian cuisine focuses on seasonality and clarity of flavor, served within grand historic salons that never overwhelm the table. Along the canal, more informal dining and bar settings evoke the atmosphere of a private home, especially at dusk, when gondolas glide past and the light softens over the water. Aman Venice’s luxury lies not in spectacle but in balance, between history and modernity, artistry and restraint, offering travelers an experience that is at once deeply Venetian and unmistakably Aman.

Airelles Palladio, Venezia offers a quietly compelling vision of Venetian luxury, where historic architecture and contemporary refinement converge on the tranquil island of Giudecca. Housed within a restored 16th-century architectural ensemble, the property’s centerpiece is a heritage structure designed by Renaissance master Andrea Palladio, surrounded by nearly one hectare of private gardens and waterfront views. This rare setting allows guests to experience Venice from a more contemplative perspective, just a short boat ride from St. Mark’s Square and the city’s major landmarks, yet removed from the crowds and cadence of the historic center. The hotel comprises only 45 guestrooms and suites, each conceived with deep respect for Venetian craftsmanship and classical proportion, while discreetly incorporating modern comforts and bespoke detailing. Arcaded corridors, frescoed surfaces, refined textiles, and tactile materials create interiors that feel both timeless and quietly residential, allowing history and contemporary living to coexist with natural ease.

Dining and leisure form an integral part of the Airelles Palladio experience, unfolding through a curated collection of restaurants, bars, and lounges that reflect Venice’s layered culinary and social traditions. Menus range from contemporary Italian cuisine to refined Mediterranean expressions, complemented by lighter offerings inspired by Venetian cicchetti and thoughtfully crafted cocktails, each venue designed to balance flavor, setting, and atmosphere rather than spectacle. Wellness is equally considered: a 1,700-square-meter spa and wellness center, three swimming pools, fitness facilities, and a dedicated children’s club support a rhythm that moves fluidly between restoration, relaxation, and family travel. Luxury at Airelles Palladio is never about display; it is defined instead by proportion, restraint, and cultural continuity, offering travelers who value history, design integrity, and a quieter Venice an elegant retreat shaped by depth, discretion, and a strong sense of place.

Avant-garde in outlook and design, The St. Regis Venice merges striking, modern interiors with its historic provenance as the best address in the city. Flanked by the Grand Canal with views across iconic landmarks, the hotel has stood in this privileged position for over a century and a half. Stylish design, intelligent technology and St. Regis Butlers cultivate an environment of impeccable comfort in 130 guestrooms and 39 suites, a selection of which graced with private terrace. 

The preserve for relaxation and socializing, our Italianate garden presents access to a range of dining and beverage options at Gio’s Restaurant and Terrace, the St. Regis Bar and at Arts Bar. A choice of areas transform easily to host up to 110 guests for celebrations, weddings and meetings, while the SPA Suites and an Exercise Room provide avenues for unwinding. Behind the hotel, luxury boutiques and contemporary art galleries lead the visitor to Teatro La Fenice and the treasures of Piazza San Marco, just four minutes away.

With nearly 200 room and suite options, one of the only difficult things about staying at Almar Jesolo Resort & Spa is choosing which room works best for you. Accommodations range from Superior rooms with garden views to Deluxe Seafront rooms, Family Deluxe Roome, Junior Suites, Sundeck Suites, and even Loft Suites. Each type has its advantages, from extra space for multiple family members to relax comfortably together, to the ultimate in luxurious and extra amenities for that honeymooning couple or the traveler who likes to live the high life with hot tubs, separate living areas, and private terraces.

As the morning mist quietly lifts from Venice’s Grand Canal, Orient Express La Minerva Venezia awakens the romance of a gilded age through the lavish legacy of a 15th-century palace. Set in Cannaregio, this historic treasure was once the celebrated Palazzo Donà Giovannelli, and under the careful restoration and renewed vision of internationally renowned architect and interior designer Aline Asmar d’Amman, it reclaims the grandeur of the Renaissance with remarkable poise. Guestrooms and suites preserve elaborate frescoes, intricate stucco ornament, and precious mosaic floors, while blending them with the signature vintage travel aesthetic of Orient Express and a more contemporary level of craftsmanship. Open the richly detailed wooden windows, and a world of winding canals and hidden gardens comes into view, turning each stay into something like an aristocratic dream suspended across centuries, where Venice’s purest historical rhythm still seems to move with the water.

Dining and social spaces give the palace hotel a fuller sense of occasion, moving the experience beyond a simple idea of Italian luxury. The hotel’s culinary program is overseen by three-Michelin-starred chef Heinz Beck, with three distinct venues shaping different moods throughout the day. Heinz Beck Venezia is an intimate fine-dining restaurant for just 20 guests, where tasting menus and à la carte dishes reinterpret Mediterranean cuisine in a lighter, more contemporary way. La Casati, open from lunch through dinner, offers a warmer and more relaxed expression of Venetian flavor, with the atmosphere extending naturally into its garden seating. Meanwhile, Wagon Bar recreates the spirit of an Orient Express carriage through an Art Deco lens, moving from daytime cicchetti and aperitifs to more intimate evening cocktails. What makes Orient Express Venezia so compelling is not only the palace itself, but the way it brings together refined dining, Venetian local character, and the romance of a vintage bar culture into a more complete and theatrical way of inhabiting the city.

Hotel Villa Cipriani’s 29 unique guest rooms and suites are beautifully furnished with antique furniture and examples of fine Italian craftsmanship, including hand painted tiles, exposed beams, and parquet floors. Modern amenities complement the historic charm, with bathrobes, slippers, air conditioning, and WiFi. Choose from Classic, Superior, and Deluxe Rooms with countryside, courtyard, or garden views, or book a Grand Deluxe Suite with its own balcony and breathtaking panorama.
