Check Availability & Pricing
Hotel Information: Guests arrive by land or by water. On the canal side, gondolas and water taxis arrive at the hotel’s private, red-and-black-striped mooring. Visitors arriving from the street enter a large marble lobby with comfortable sofas. The hotel caters primarily to vacationers from the United States and Europe, though business travelers also appreciate its convenient location.
Amenity highlights: This hotel on the Grand Canal comprises three historic buildings. The central one retains its 15th-century façade. Guests start their day with a complimentary breakfast buffet. The on-site restaurant opens to a waterfront terrace, where meals are served in warm weather.
Insider tip: The hotel is a 10-minute walk from the Ghetto, the Jewish quarter established in the 16th century. A maze of narrow streets with five historic synagogues and a museum, the Ghetto is a quiet place for strolling, contemplation, and escaping the crowds.
