"An iconic hotel housed in a palatial 14th-century building, Hotel Danieli strikes the perfect balance of historical elegance and contemporary luxury for a quintessential Venetian experience."

Hotel Danieli is a truly iconic hotel. Built at the end of the 14th century by a noble Venetian family, it is a palatial five-star hotel that, while beautifully modernised, remains true to its roots and still harkens back to the days of the Dandolo family within its ancient walls.

Walking into the Hotel Danieli is like stepping back in time – you can’t help being mesmerised by the pink marble, stained glass, gold leaf ceilings, Murano glass chandeliers and antique furnishings that contribute to the opulent décor. Many notable artists, writers, musicians and other luminaries have stayed here over the years; among them: Goethe, Wagner, Charles Dickens, Byron, Peggy Guggenheim, Leonard Bernstein, Benjamin Britten, Harrison Ford and Steven Spielberg.

Many notable artists, writers, musicians and other luminaries have stayed here over the years; among them: Goethe, Wagner, Charles Dickens, Byron, Peggy Guggenheim, Leonard Bernstein, Benjamin Britten, Harrison Ford and Steven Spielberg.

Today, the hotel’s rooms and suites are located over three wings, all with their own distinctive style, but the Palazzo Dandolo boasts true veritable Venetian style. The accommodation is extremely varied from a lead-in Superior Single room to a Junior Suite and right up to the lavish Doge Dandolo Royal Suite. Most categories are done up in Venetian, Empire or Gothic style. Although different, they are all consistently elegant and reflect the rich cultural heritage of Venice. Hence, it does just come down to personal preference for decor. The majority also have views over the lagoon.

The hotel doesn’t have a physical spa, but in-room massages can be arranged; choose from aromatherapy, relaxing deep tissue or traditional Swedish. There is also a fitness centre available 24/7 that has the latest Technogym equipment.

The hotel’s location is superb, just a few steps away from notable sites such as St Mark’s Square (or Piazza San Marco, if you want to impress the locals with your Italian), the Doge’s Palace and the Bridge of Sighs.

And while there are plenty of restaurants in the vicinity, dining at Hotel Danieli is an experience not to be missed. The rooftop Restaurant Terrazza Danieli offers a menu inspired by Marco Polo’s voyages to the Orient, with Mediterranean flavours and eastern influences. From May through October, dining takes place on the outdoor patio overlooking the water – a spectacular setting. You will need to book in advance, so request a table on the front row for one of the best seats in the house, and make sure you leave room for the ‘Danieli style’ tiramisu.

    • King bed
    • River view

    Boasting several balconies with 180° panoramic views of the lagoon, the sweeping 150-square-metre Doge’s Royal Suite offers a taste of regal life. Terrazzo alla veneziana floors, covered by antique carpets, anchor the museum-quality furnishings and artwork. The sitting area features ornate gilded Baroque armchairs, upholstered in green and gold damask—the colours echo the spirals of gold dust dancing in the 18th and 19th century Murano glass chandeliers. The soaring ceilings in the living room boast continuous dark wooden beams. A decorative fireplace with altar-like mantle presents the Dandolo family coat of arms, accented on either side by antique paintings of members of the royal household.
    An ornate doorway leads to the elegant bedroom with two signature Luxury Collection queen beds. Each bed frame and headboard is made from beautifully burled wood. The golden coverlets are styled from the same silk that lines the walls. On the elaborate stucco ceiling, an original 18th century fresco of “putti” angels by Iacopo Guarana has been restored to perfection.
    The adjoining marble-clad bathroom is an equivalent study in opulence. A separate powder room is conveniently located by the entry corridor of the suite.
    The Doge’s Royal Suite may connect with additional guest rooms and suites to form up to a five-bedroom suite.
