24 Best Hotels in Venice, Italy

"As you’re ushered into Ca Maria Adele's luxurious reception room, your luggage is whisked away and replaced by a glass of something cool and bubbly before you’ve even checked in. Small but perfectly formed, this sumptuous boutique hotel not far from the Salute church is hushed and sophisticated. You can go for baroque in one of the five concept suites, such as the scarlet Sala del Doge or the magnificent, dark Sala Noire. But gold-hued Deluxe rooms share similar comforts, including spacious marble bathrooms, fluffy towels, and goose-down duvets in winter. Ca Maria Adele is in Dorsoduro, Venice’s artsiest district, with the Guggenheim, contemporary works at the Punta della Dogana, and Venetian grand masters at the Accademia all at your doorstep." - Sarah James, Anne Hanley
