On the Grand Canal, the 16th century Palazzo Giovanelli is an inviting 4-star with a rich history. The palazzo’ s lavish features— museumquality frescoes, decorative ceiling beams and glittering Murano chandeliers— enhance décor that is both contemporary and elegant. The luxurious rooms and suites are furnished as one would expect of a doge’ s home. Guests enjoy an American breakfast buffet and lobby bar for light fare throughout the day. In spring, the private garden is filled with the aroma of wisteria. In a quiet, residential area, the hotel has a private water taxi landing and is only steps away from a vaporetto stop.
