Giudecca garden refuge
Wander cloistered walkways beneath shaded pergolas and quiet courtyards, where the peaceful garden pace contrasts with the distant bustle of the lagoon.
“French savoir faire blends seamlessly with Italian style, as evidenced in each of the 17 rooms and 28 suites…”

The rooms
Bedrooms feature hand-selected antiques, fine French linens, coffered ceilings with concealed audio, and serene views across private gardens or open water.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
A cypress-lined lap pool stretches through the private gardens, while the heated indoor pool sits beneath an ornate chandelier.
The spa
The Guerlain Spa spans three levels, with a Japanese Iyashi Dôme infra-cabin and mezzanine daybeds beneath timber rafters.
At the table
Dining spans cloistered garden terraces and damask salons, with seasonal lagoon dishes and late-night drinks at Elton's Club.
In typical Airelles style – the brand is known for inhabiting history-laden locations, like its flagship Versailles outpost – the hotel spans three historic buildings...
How it began
Originally a sixteenth-century institute and lace-making atelier, the estate preserves Andrea Palladio's consecrated church within its restored grounds.
“The hotel is cloistered within 2.5 acres of gardens, an improbable oasis of greenery among the narrow stone alleys of Venice.”
