Formerly a home to the Templar Knights, the 12th century Luna Baglioni now ranks amongst Venice's top hotels.
Superbly situated in a quiet position, the original site dates back to 1118, and is close to Piazza San Marco and many of Venice's main attractions. For that truly luxurious touch, a water taxi will take you to the hotel's own water entrance via a landing stage.
The interiors are elegant and spacious with beautiful frescoes, ornate stucco ceilings and sweeping marble staircases. The Marco Polo ballroom, where buffet breakfast is taken, has original 18th century frescoes by the famous Tiepolo School. Guestrooms are also wonderfully and luxuriously decorated, with period furniture, silk fabrics and Murano glass.
The hotel's award winning Restaurant Canova is renowned for its excellent cuisine and impeccable service, surrounded by paneled walls and fine still life oil paintings. If heading out to one of the nearby restaurants, enjoy a classic bellini beforehand amongst the ornate décor of its Caffè Baglioni.
An exceptional hotel that occupies a prime location, the Luna Baglioni embodies a Venetian luxury and comfort for that truly refined break.
