Ruzzini Palace Hotel Venice - An Intimate Retreat for Couples
Just a stone’s throw from St. Mark’s Square, past the famous golden-vaulted Basilica, two calli lead to the 4-star Ruzzini Palace Hotel Venezia, a historic residence that throughout the centuries has welcomed as many as three Doges.
Here, in the heart of 16th-century Venice, in one of its most authentic and enchanting sestieri, our luxury hotel offers an intimate and refined retreat — perfect for couples seeking a romantic escape.
The noble residence Ruzzini Palace Hotel preserves the charm and atmosphere of ancient Venice, enhanced by the finest services and comforts of an elegant 4-star hotel.

"It is more than a Hotel.... it is a Historical Palace. I wanted to stay in a historic palace that would let me experience to the fullest the Venice of the past, and I found it here at the Ruzzini Palace. The palace is from the 16th century and has been renovated to provide every comfort, maintaining the evocative atmosphere of the time of the Doges of the Serenissima."
Mariastella B. - Tripadvisor Review
Near every attraction
Ruzzini Palace Hotel enjoys an enviable position, with the best of Venice just a short walk away, including St. Mark’s Square and the Rialto Bridge.
Step outside the hotel and you’ll be surrounded by Venice’s historical and artistic treasures — from Campo Santa Maria Formosa to the lively streets of the Castello district — where you can experience the city like a local.
"We liked everything about the Ruzzini Palace Hotel, from the hospitality to the excellent location for sightseeing. We were in the Suite Del Paradiso, a spacious and comfortable room that boasts a large balcony with a stunning view of the canals. In addition to the attention to detail and impeccable cleanliness, we particularly enjoyed the atmosphere of this 16th-century palace."
