Its unique location next to Piazza San Marco and the Rialto Bridge and an interior design project that hinges on the most exclusive elegance have earned this hotel de charme approval from the most discerning international clientele and unconditional praise from the Financial Times, which described it as a residence worthy of a doge. The suite bathrooms stand out for their sophisticatedly private mood and an unmistakable vintage touch is added by iconic Admiral and Aurora freestanding bathtubs.
