Palladio Hotel & Spa

Venice, Europe

Hotel overview

There have been several luxury hotel openings in Venice in the last few years, but nothing quite compares to the Palladio. It is the newest property of Francesca Bortoletto Possati, owner of the Bauer hotels, and has a wonderful location and a remarkable sense of history.

Accommodation

Designed by the Renaissance architect Andrea Palladio, the building dates from 1500; it was
originally a convent and had been abandoned for over 100 years before Sigra Possati began the restoration. The hotel frames the church of Zitelle on three sides and is located on Giudecca Island with quite exceptional views back across the basin to St. Mark’s Square. There are 50 bedrooms and the majority have views over the lagoon or the Palladio’s attractive gardens.

All rooms are beautifully decorated with fine tapestries and frescoes and have interesting architectural details that reflect the building’s history. There is a restaurant with a terrace leading on to the garden and an impressive wellness spa which is due to open in Spring 2007. One of the great attractions of the Palladio is that you can enjoy the tranquillity of the hotel and its location yet Venice is just a stone’s throw away – a vaparetto stop is steps from the entrance and there is a private shuttle operating to and from the Bauer Il Palazzo, a journey of no more than five minutes. Hotel open 2 April – 31 October.
