The traditional build with stone, columned balconies is flanked by the Grand Canal with its luminous quality of shifting light, and a private pontoon to welcome guests who often praise the exceptional location, stunning views and attentive service. Behind lies the street of Calle XXII Marzo, full of elite boutiques, contemporary art galleries and the Gran Teatro La Fenice, the city’s temple of opera. As a Venice hotel near Piazza San Marco, just a four-minute walk away, the city's treasures are easy to discover.

The city is often considered like an open-air museum, an ancient city wonderfully asleep in her Renaissance dream, but the identity of Venice goes far beyond that cliché.

La Biennale di Venezia

The Venice International Art, Architecture, Cinema, Dance, Theatre and Music Festivals play a prominent role in the city’s and the global cultural panoramas, bringing the best of international art trends and cultural events to Venice. The Venice Biennale has been for over 120 years one of the most prestigious cultural institutions in the world. The history dates back from 1895, when the first International Art Exhibition was organized. In the 1930s new festivals were born: Music, Cinema, and Theatre (the Venice Film Festival in 1932 was the first film festival in history). In 1980 the first International Architecture Exhibition took place, and in 1999 Dance made its debut at La Biennale.
