Canal-side palazzo hotel from the beloved luxury-beach-hotel brand Aman, in a rare departure from their go-to style. Expect expansive spaces, gorgeous original details, and a very elite crowd.Ωza~AA

Restored 15th-century palazzo with very open rooms, marble-clad bathrooms, beautiful canal views, and two- and three-century old frescoes throughout.

One of the city’s—if not the—most beloved luxury hotels. Everything is classically Venetian—from the ornate design, to the impeccable service, to the more than five centuries of history inside. The terrace restaurant has one of our favorite views of the Grand Canal. 

Historic five-star luxury hotel with a delicious rooftop restaurant surrounded by fabulous views. One of the city’s most famous sites—a true icon of Venetian opulence.

A more affordable option that’s just as gorgeous as its surroundings. Expect typical Venetian decor spanning the 16th to 19th centuries across the 40 well-appointed rooms. 

This design hotel features 32 rooms and a distinctly modern taste, with blocked colors and clean, round silhouettes everywhere you look. Highlights include the lush entry garden and the on-site cocktail bar (one of the city’s bests).
