Philippe Starck-Designed Luxury on the Grand Canal
San Marco district, on Venice's Grand Canal
Why We Recommend It
This extraordinary boutique hotel represents Venice at its most sophisticated and unexpected. Philippe Starck’s visionary design combines Venetian tradition with theatrical contemporary elements to create spaces that surprise and delight. The hotel’s intimate scale provides a genuinely exclusive experience, while its Grand Canal location offers convenient access to Venice’s landmarks.
We particularly value the property’s unique character—offering an alternative to the city’s more classical luxury hotels.
Atmosphere and Design
Palazzina Grassi presents a dramatically different interpretation of Venetian luxury. Behind the historic palazzo façade, Philippe Starck has created magical interiors featuring mirrored surfaces, custom-designed furniture, and playful references to Venetian traditions. The spaces strike a perfect balance between theatrical flair and genuine comfort.
The intimate restaurant and exclusive club lounge create sophisticated environments for dining and socializing, frequented by an international creative crowd.
