At the table
Waterfront tables along the promenade serve Venetian seafood and classic martinis looking straight across the lagoon.
Set right on Riva Degli Schiavoni, Londra Palace Venezia’s neoclassical beauty threatens to outshine its surroundings — even though you have plenty to look at.
How it began
In 1865, Venetian engineer Giovanni Fuin constructed the Neo-Lombardesque palazzo next door, which later merged into this historic waterfront residence.
“At the luxurious Londra Palace, huge windows in many of the 52 rooms look straight out over the watery expanse of the Venetian lagoon.”
