After a sumptuous restoration, Palazzo Venart – a member of The Leading Hotels of the World – is now one of the most iconic 5-star hotels in Venice, a magical and secret place in the heart of the Sestiere Santa Croce, able to recount a story stretching back centuries and beginning when it was an ancient private residence, known as Palazzo Bacchini delle Palme. The palace’s soul lies in its name, a combination of the words ‘Venice’ and ‘Art’, and it enshrines the charm and essence of the history of this city, an emblem of world art since the Renaissance. Tucked away in the heart of the ‘city on water’ – 10 minutes from the Rialto Bridge and far from the classic tourist routes, Palazzo Venart houses priceless treasures such as the enchanting garden with a private pier on the Grand Canal and the Glam restaurant, the only one shining two Michelin stars in Venice.
