AT PALAZZO ABADESSA, YOU ARE SURROUNDED BY FIVE CENTURIES OF VENICE HISTORY. ECHOES OF THE STORIES THAT HAVE BEEN INTERWOVEN TO BECOME VENICE HISTORY. AND IT CONTINUES TODAY NOW, OUR GUESTS ARE THE ACTORS.
Since the 1500s, this splendid historic residence of the famous house of Priuli has welcomed Venetian patricians, who arrived at the water gate or entered from the square, across the spacious exclusive garden. The beauty and calm of the green trees and lawn, the charm of the entrance on to the canal so typical of Venice, are still here today to welcome our guests. Inside the hall of the hotel, one sees the refinement and harmony of the colors; on the settles, the arms of the two noble families united in the 16th century. The majestic horseshoe staircase of the accommodation leads you gently up to the piano nobile: sensational, dazzling, splendid, it will take your breath away. At mid-day, the sun’s rays penetrate the ballroom, the heart of the house, accompanied by the play of light and shade from the garden, illuminating the superb frescoes, the 17th century paintings, and the magnificent floors, a setting for the splendid doors to the suites of this lovely hotel accommodation in Venice.
The size, ambience and style of our accomodation suites in Venice are all unique, with precious objects (hangings of old hand-woven silk on the walls, Murano glass, fashioned by the skilful hands of artists, for the chandeliers and lamps, painted ceilings, marquetry floors).
Each room has a magical and very special view of a Venice that is waiting to be discovered.
