Fodor's Review:
Aptly nicknamed "Villa of the Wonders," this patrician retreat once served as the Russian embassy and was the fictional residence of Katharine Hepburn's character in the film Summertime. Outside, a secret garden awaits just beyond an iron gate, complete with a mini Palladian-style villa, flower beds, stone cupids, and verdant trees—all rarities in Venice. The hotel is located on a peaceful promontory where two side canals converge with the Grand Canal. The conservative rooms are outfitted with Venetian-style antiques and fine tapestry. Book well in advance. Pro: A historic, classic Venetian property. Con: Formal surroundings with lots of antiques are not well suited to families with young children.
