Palazzo Venart Luxury Hotel

Venice, Italy

CityHistoric

On Venice’s Grand Canal in Santa Croce, Palazzo Venart occupies a restored historic palazzo whose garden opens to the water. The boutique hotel’s rooms and suites reinterpret Venetian interiors with individually chosen furnishings, while the intimate Glam restaurant brings contemporary technique to lagoon traditions. Its appeal is concentrated rather than resort-like: a small-scale base for exploring the city, with a private garden and pier that make the canal part of the stay.

Aman Venice

Venice, Italy

City24 roomsHistoric

Aman Venice occupies Palazzo Papadopoli, a 16th-century residence on the Grand Canal in San Polo. With 24 guestrooms and suites, it feels more like a private palazzo than a large city hotel: rooms begin at 47 square metres, and some retain historic frescoes and other architectural details. Two private gardens offer a rare patch of green within the canal-lined city. Arva serves Italian cuisine in the palazzo, with garden dining available in warmer months.

CityHistoric

The St. Regis Florence occupies a historic palazzo on the Arno, in the city’s historic center. Its 99 rooms and suites combine contemporary comforts with Florentine, Medici and Renaissance-inspired interiors; many look toward the river and the city. Dining and evening drinks center on the Winter Garden, while Café Ginori brings a porcelain-focused afternoon-tea ritual. The result is a relatively intimate city hotel whose character comes from its palace setting, river outlook and formal, art-inflected interiors.
