The St Regis Venice

Venice, Italy

The St Regis Venice

St. Regis Venice is best reached via its jetty, nestled amongst the palaces of the Grand Canal. The hotel brings together five Venetian palazzos around the former Grand Hotel Britannia, which opened in 1895 and was where Monet once stayed; the rooms echo the colour palette of his Venetian views. Ai Weiwei’s White Chandelier, blown at Berengo Studio, hangs amongst works by Jaume Plensa and Lorenzo Quinn, whilst the communal areas pay homage to Carlo Scarpa. Every day at five o’clock, when the lights in the Gran Salone dim, a bottle is sabred.
