— Venice, Italy —
The Gritti Palace
An Insider's Take
'This legendary palazzo has been the epicenter of Venetian glamour since 1475, where Hemingway penned "Across the River and Into the Trees" and countless dignitaries have gazed upon the Grand Canal's eternal dance.'
What's Special?
The Gritti Palace occupies the former residence of Doge Andrea Gritti, featuring original Murano glass chandeliers, hand-painted ceilings, and terrazzo floors. Its Club del Doge restaurant terrace offers the city's most coveted canal-side dining experience, while the Gritti Epicurean School provides exclusive cooking classes with Venetian master chefs.
WhatAHotel! Pro-Tip: Book a Serenissima Suite for private balcony access overlooking the Grand Canal - it's one of only a handful of hotels in Venice with this rare amenity, and the golden hour views of Santa Maria della Salute are absolutely magical.
Don't Miss
The hotel's private water taxi dock provides exclusive access without the crowds, and the concierge can arrange after-hours visits to the Doge's Palace through secret passages. The Gritti's bartender created the famous "Gritti Pink" cocktail - a Venetian twist on the Negroni that's become legendary among cognoscenti.
