Secluded lagoon palazzo
Water taxis pull up to a private Grand Canal pier, leading past magnolia trees into a remarkably quiet sixteenth-century palazzo.
“you enter through a gate, down a long courtyard, and into the hotel, which makes it feel like you're in your very own (and very private) palazzo.”

it’s uncommonly secluded and quiet, for one thing, though it’s mere yards from the Grand Canal.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Set in quiet Santa Croce right beside the San Stae vaporetto stop, the palazzo sits a short walk from the Rialto Bridge.
The rooms
Heavy skeleton keys unlock bedrooms layered with tactile damask, rich maroon velvets, Murano glass, and restored wood-beam ceilings.

Restaurant
Glam Enrico Bartolini
The two-Michelin-starred dining room and magnolia courtyard serve contemporary seafood sourced from across the Venetian lagoon.
Just about every single square inch has been coaxed back into Technicolor life, the finished product a testament to the crack team of art historians and artisans…
How it began
A careful two-year restoration brought the historic Palazzo Bacchini delle Palme back to life alongside a team of Venetian art historians.
