Historic Venetian Residence
Hotel La Residenza is housed in a 15th-century palazzo once owned by the Gritti noble family. The property features 18th-century Venetian décor, parquet floors, and original paintings by Giuseppe Diamantini and Antonio Molinari. Located in Castello, it's 700 meters from St. Mark's Square and a 3-minute walk from the Arsenale vaporetto stop.
Rooms with Venetian Charm
Rooms include air conditioning, minibars, flat-screen TVs, and free Wi-Fi. Bathrooms have showers, hairdryers, and courtesy toiletries. Some rooms offer city views. Options range from classic doubles to quadruple rooms, all with 18th-century Venetian-style furnishings.
Breakfast in Gothic Lounge
A sweet and savory Italian and continental breakfast is served in the main-floor lounge, which features Gothic-Byzantine architecture, glass chandeliers, and historic stuccoes. The space overlooks Campo Bandiera e Moro, a quiet square with a traditional Venetian well.
Castello District Access
The hotel is steps from Riva degli Schiavoni, the Venetian Arsenal, and San Zaccaria vaporetto stops. Nearby attractions include the Bridge of Sighs (5-minute walk) and the Venice Biennale grounds. Local wine bars frequented by residents are within walking distance.
Practical Services
The 24-hour front desk provides luggage storage and tour assistance. Public water transport links the hotel to Marco Polo Airport (via Alilaguna blu boat) and Santa Lucia Station (vaporetto line 4.1). Pets are not allowed, and the entire property is non-smoking.
“I think this hotel provides a genuinely Venetian experience, tucked away in a quiet courtyard yet remarkably close to the main attractions. The daytime staff seem to stand out for their warmth, creating a welcoming atmosphere. For me, the location alone makes it a solid choice, surrounded by inviting eateries.”
