Al Theatro Palace in Venezia, open June–September.
Al Theatro Palace rises along the Grand Canal in Venice's historic Cannaregio district, its classical façade opening directly onto the water.
The palazzo's position at Campiello Marinoni places it steps from the Basilica di Santa Maria dei Frari and within the labyrinth of medieval streets that define Venice's layout.
Floor-to-ceiling windows frame unobstructed views of passing gondolas and the canal's constant architectural pageantry.
Perfect in every way! A fantastic hotel located centrally in Venice, a short walk away from everything! Staff were very helpful, our room was cute and well equipped. We will definitely be coming back!
