Description: Hotel Monaco & Grand Canal Venice, Italy. At the corner of San Marco Square and overlooking the Grand Canal, this elegant and historic hotel is situated in one of Venice's most charming and atmospheric areas. Guests enjoy majestic views of the Church of Santa Maria della Salute and the island of San Giorgio; the hotel is just next to Cà Giustinian - the historical site of the famed art Biennale. As with Venice itself, history intrudes everywhere inside the Hotel Monaco & Grand Canal. Beginning in 1638 the building, originally belonging to the Dandolo family, hosted the first "Ridotto Pubblico", a place to which nobility and people from all walks of life, (adventurers, courtesans, swindlers, and travelers) would retire for pleasure and intrigue. Giacomo Casanova considered this place the ideal backdrop for his legendary conquests. Today, this grand salon Sala del Ridotto, stunningly restored with its frescoes, marble, mirrors, balustrade and stuccoes seems to jump alive from the the 1670 painting of the salon by Gabriel Bella. The Hotel Monaco & Grand Canal has 100 rooms furnished in grand style for those who want to feel a part of Venice's history. The hotel's recent overall restoration has managed to revive, with a contemporary feel, the atmosphere of this historic building. For the business traveler, It is now possible to organize conferences for over 250 people in the very heart of Venice. Another eight halls are available for seminars and receptions. Golf and tennis available nearby. AC.
