The Hotel Palazzo Stern is an exclusive 4-star superior boutique hotel housed in an authentic 15th-century Moorish palace in the Dorsoduro district, one of Venice’s most charming and less chaotic areas. Directly overlooking the Grand Canal, opposite Palazzo Grassi and near the Accademia Bridge, the hotel combines the charm of a historic residence (once owned by the Stern family, famous art collectors) with luxury and modern amenities. The interiors, furnished with exquisite antiques, sculptures, and mosaics, make the stay a true journey through time.
The 36 rooms and suites are elegantly decorated in Venetian style, featuring precious tapestries, Murano glass chandeliers, and original furnishings. Many offer a splendid view of the Grand Canal, while others overlook the tranquil internal gardens. All accommodations are equipped with high-end comforts, including air conditioning, minibar, satellite TV, and tea/coffee making facilities. The private bathrooms are spacious and often include a Jacuzzi tub or a walk-in shower, with soft bathrobes.
The pride of Hotel Palazzo Stern is the ground-floor terrace, overlooking the Grand Canal, ideal for breakfast or a drink. Even more exclusive is the heated panoramic Jacuzzi located on the rooftop terrace, an oasis of peace where guests can relax with breathtaking views over the rooftops and the Canal. The hotel features a private dock for water taxis and boats, ensuring convenient and memorable access (it is possible to arrange an arrival via the hotel’s vintage boat).
The Prete Rosso Restaurant offers a menu of typical Venetian and Italian cuisine in a refined setting. A full breakfast is served every morning and can be enjoyed in-room or on the terrace. The Bar/Lounge is available for drinks and snacks. Services include a 24-hour reception, luggage storage, currency exchange, laundry service, room service, tour and ticket assistance, and meeting facilities.
Located in the Dorsoduro district, the hotel is close to major cultural attractions such as the Accademia Bridge, Ca’ Rezzonico, and the Museo della Musica. Its location is strategic: it is a short walk from the beating heart of St. Mark’s, yet sufficiently away from the crowds, ensuring a more authentic and tranquil stay. The hotel is pet-friendly (dogs allowed) and attentive to accessibility needs.
