“In Venice's Dorsoduro, this hotel struck me as a serene escape from the city's bustle, with its own canal-side dock offering a seamless arrival. The Sutera family's generations of ownership give it a personal touch, visible in the Venetian décor and attentive service. Its blend of prime location, family-friendly charm, and artistic spirit left a mark on me.”
