This hotel offers not only a central location (in the shopping district too!) for visiting and enjoying Venice, but also several unique guestrooms - from the rooms on the Noble Floor, with their high ceilings, to the rooms overlooking the rooftops of Venice, each has an appeal all its own, whether it's the well-placed antique furnishings or the heated floor in your bathroom. This is truly what I've come to expect from a five-star deluxe hotel.
