The honest take

Nolinski Venezia is the smarter book: cheaper at $886 against $1,279, a stronger guest rating from three times the reviews, and it has a spa, pool and rooftop that Palazzo Venart simply doesn't offer. Palazzo Venart answers with a genuine 16th-century palazzo on the Grand Canal and a two-Michelin-starred restaurant, which is a different kind of luxury entirely. If you want facilities and San Marco's theatre district at your door, book Nolinski; if you want to sleep inside Venetian history with water lapping outside your window, pay the premium for Venart.

The look and the feel

Palazzo Venart Luxury Hotel

Palazzo Venart occupies an actual 16th-century palazzo, its garden and terrace running down to the Grand Canal, which is the rarest thing a Venice hotel can offer. Expect frescoed ceilings, stone staircases worn soft by centuries, marble bathrooms, and the particular hush of a private courtyard shielded from the vaporetto traffic outside. Glam, the two-Michelin-starred restaurant, sits within the same walls, so the whole building operates at a pitch of formal, old-money quiet. It draws guests who want Venice as backdrop and history as texture, not a resort experience.

Couples and anniversary travellers who want to stay inside a genuine historic palazzo with a serious restaurant attached.

Nolinski Venezia

Nolinski Venezia is San Marco's more contemporary answer: a restrained, tailored lobby with the clean-lined glamour the Nolinski group is known for elsewhere in Paris, translated here into Venetian stone and brass rather than palazzo excess. The listing points to city-view rooms, a terrace, and an indoor pool and spa, which is unusual density of facility for central Venice. It sits by La Fenice and Piazza San Marco, so the street outside is theatre crowds and evening paseo rather than canal silence. The crowd here is dressier, more urban, less interested in frescoes than in a good bar and a workable spa after a day of walking.

Travellers who want San Marco's theatre-and-piazza energy along with a spa and pool, at a lower price and with the reassurance of far more reviews.

Booking Palazzo Venart over Nolinski means giving up the spa, pool and rooftop entirely, and paying nearly $400 more a night for it.

Palazzo Venart is the more beautiful building to simply stand inside, because it is a surviving 16th-century palazzo on the Grand Canal rather than a well-executed contemporary fit-out.

“If you looking for a centrally located Hotel in San Marco, this is a great choice”

Our room was very comfortable and spacious. Staff were welcoming and accommodating

We would have preferred a hotel closer to the canal so you could see the water, however this isn’t the hotel’s fault
