About Danieli, A Four Seasons Hotel, Venice

Danieli occupies a 14th-century Venetian palazzo on the Grand Canal's waterfront promenade, where gondolas pass directly before the hotel's marble facade and guests command unobstructed views across the Basin of San Marco toward the Basilica di San Giorgio Maggiore.

The five-star property features 219 rooms across three interconnected buildings, blending Renaissance architecture with contemporary Four Seasons service along one of Venice's most historic quays.

Ceremonies and receptions unfold on terraces suspended above the lagoon, where the salt water and passing boat traffic create the unmistakable atmosphere of a city built on water.

We spent three days at the Danieli. A major advantage of the hotel is its location by St. Mark’s Square, along with the beautiful view of the lagoon from the window.
