Full accommodation information
Hotel information
The original 14th century palace of Doge Dandolo's family, this beautifully restored gothic landmark is synonymous with the romance and opulence of this magical city.
Just a few steps away from Piazza San Marco and its Basilica, as well as other notable sites such as the Doge's Palace and the Bridge of Sighs, it's easy to see why Hotel Danieli is the favourite gathering place of the glitterati.
Inside, lavishly appointed pink marble interiors, stained glass, gold-leaf ceilings and Murano Glass chandeliers are all reminiscent of its royal heritage. However, even these opulent surroundings are no match for the panoramic views of the city, the Lagoon and the Lido, which can be enjoyed from the rooftop restaurant, La Terrazza Danieli, whilst enjoying delicious Mediterranean dishes and regional cuisine.
Accommodation comprises 215 lavish guestrooms spread across three palaces. Ranging from the Superior Single to the Doge Dandolo Royal Suite, rooms are elegant and sumptuous, with a décor reflecting the rich cultural heritage of Venice, and amenities meeting even the most discerning traveller’s expectations.
Activities & Entertainment
Guests at Hotel Danieli are treated to a myriad of unique dining options. Indulge in an afternoon tea surrounded by remnants of the past at Bar Dandolo, and enjoy al fresco pre-dinner drinks at Bar Terrazza Danieli. Dinner is taken at the fabulous Restaurant Terrazza Danieli, which boasts unparalleled views of the Serenissima from the rooftop of the Palazzo Danieli Excelsior. Menus combine authentic Venetian flavours with traditional Mediterranean fare.
Take the short private boat ride to Venice Lido, where an array of private beach facilities, swimming pools, tennis and golf await you. The hotel’s enviable location means that most of Venice’s top attractions are on your doorstep, from St Mark’s Square to La Serenissima, the Grand Canal to the underrated Arsenale.
