Take a leap back in time to a golden age and a very special place, a Boutique hotel in Venice, suspended between music and water, where travelers enjoy the most fascinating aspects of a truly unique city.

The Gran Canal Palace offers 5-star hotel services in two historic Palaces overlooking the Grand Canal, both can be reached from the Grand Canal through a private water entrance on Rio del Santissimo or by the narrow Calle Genova with access from Campo Santo Stefano. In  Gran Canal Palace you can find the Reception & the Concierge service at your disposal 24H.

Palazzo Foscolo hosts our exclusive Suites overlooking the Grand Canal or internal court; all suites feature original Venetian decor, enhanced by touches of contemporary design.

The Bar&Restaurant and the sumptuous saloon which serves as a breakfast room and gala dinner, provides reserved spaces for our guests. The elegant and brightly lit Salone del Doge is situated on the Noble floor, with balconies overlooking the Grand Canal and offering a unique view; to the left the Basilica della Madonna della Salute and Punta della Dogana, to the right the Accademia Bridge, and in front the Guggenheim Museum and opulent Palazzo Barbarigo.

The Gran Canal Palace is located near the Accademia Bridge and Campo Santo Stefano, overlooking the Grand Canal, in the most elegant area of the city, full of art, culture and history.

If you arrive on foot from “Ponte dell’Accademia” you will arrive in Campo Santo Stefano square; you will find the restaurant “Art Blue Cafè” on the right, go behind it and you will see the huge Palace in Santo Stefano, today the music conservatory; walk in front of this Palazzo and after the arch: you will see the “Sottoportego Pisani” (sort of gallery); proceed inside it and pass the iron gate in the middle of the “soportego”, than you will arrive at the Palace. To be more clear consider that the Palazzetto is 1 min from the Accademia bridge.

The view looking out onto the Grand Canal will leave you speechless. From the two out-sitting windows you can admire the Chiesa della Salute, designed by Baldassarre Longhena after the Palladio, the Palazzo Barbarigo with its mosaics, and the Accademia Bridge. It feels as if you are living in a painting.
The suite has a spacious living room featuring a beautiful period fireplace which will set the perfect mood for your most relaxing moments, whether you are enjoying a good book, a sip of tea, or an aperitif. The room is elegantly furnished with fine fabrics from the early Venetian tradition. Antique furniture, paintings, and lamps will spoil you in a charming atmosphere that only Venice can offer.
