7Palazzo Venart

Originally built on the Grand Canal in the 15th century, the palazzo was a gathering place for 18th-century aristocrats (their parties were depicted in frescoes restored by a team of artisans during the hotel’s two-year renovation).

The property is filled with precious antiques, gilded mirrors, and Rubelli silk curtains that recall its golden age—but the hotel’s glamor isn’t all about the past.
