PROPERTY HIGHLIGHTS:

  • As sumptuous and romantic as the city itself, Aman Venice – set in a historically significant 16th-century palazzo on the Grand Canal – is home to museum-quality treasures including Tiepolo frescoes, gilded ceilings and centuries-old leather wall coverings.
  • More home than hotel, Aman Venice offers the rare privilege of space in the centre of the Floating City. High ceilings and spacious light-filled Salons are joined by two mature outdoor private gardens – a rarity in the Italian city. In keeping with Aman’s philosophy that fewer is better, the luxury property only has 24 rooms. The boutique size gives it the feeling of a home rather than a hotel.
  • The luxury Venice hotel, set in the regal Palazzo Papadopoli on the Grand Canal, is in the heart of the city. Moments of beauty are everywhere, from St Mark’s Basilica to chance encounters with a door embellishment or fresco.
  • Restaurant Arva offers creative dishes based on local seasonal ingredients, many of them rarely seen elsewhere in Venice, such as handmade chestnut-flour pasta, filet of venison and roasted eel – a Venetian favorite for generations.
  • Aman Venice is the only one on the Grand Canal that boasts a water-facing garden. Aman Venice’s garden on the Grand Canal is a luxurious oasis, offering 2,800 square feet of manicured lawn and flowers where you can have breakfast, lunch and dinner from April to October.
  • Tucked into a secret mezzanine level, the Aman Spa has created a haven of peace in the heart of the city. Comprising three discreet treatment rooms, the venetian Spa offers a serene retreat in which to unwind and refresh after days spent discovering the city and exploring the Grand Canal.
  • This historic hotel is so captivating that even Hollywood power couple George and Amal Clooney chose the ultra-luxe venue as the site for their September 2014 wedding reception.

OVERVIEW

Aman Venice Exterior

Filled with museum-quality treasures, Aman Venice’s home on the Grand Canal is the 16th-century Palazzo Papadopoli, one of the city’s most significant buildings. The great 18th-century painter Tiepolo once lived here, and his frescoes adorn the walls of many of the rooms. In the 19th century,the presiding Papadopoli family turned adjoining buildings into two gardens that, today, are among the city’s rarest private green spaces. When Aman Venice was renovated in 2014, its sensitive incorporation of contemporary comforts won the palazzo a heritage award for Italy’s best restoration.

Set in one of the city’s eight, great monumental palazzos on the Grand Canal, Aman Venice embodies all that is sumptuous and sensuous about La Serenissima – but while its frescoed interiors sate appetites for grandeur, they invoke balance and harmony too. Rococo works of art are offset by the contemporary restraint of Jean-Michel Gathy interiors; private gardens and year-round wellness encourage calming introspection. Combining a reverence to the past and an appreciation of the present, local experts curate authentic, cultural encounters away from the crowds, reaching the heart of Venetian passions. Offering views of the hotel’s private garden or the Grand Canal, many of the 24 Rooms and Signature Rooms feature protected frescoes and reliefs. This historic hotel is so captivating that even Hollywood power couple George and Amal Clooney chose the ultra-luxe venue as the site for their September 2014 wedding reception.
