Elizabeth Unique Venice - New hotel in Venice, Italy

Discover Authentic Venice in Cannaregio

Nestled in the authentic Cannaregio district, Elizabeth Unique Venice enjoys one of the city’s most characterful locations. Away from the busiest tourist crowds yet within walking distance of St. Mark’s Square, the Rialto Bridge and the Grand Canal, the hotel overlooks one of Venice’s picturesque waterfront promenades. Guests are immersed in a neighborhood known for its traditional bacari wine bars, artisan workshops and the historic Jewish Ghetto, offering a more intimate and local perspective on Venice while remaining perfectly positioned to explore its iconic landmarks.

A New Chapter for Elizabeth Unique

Following the success of Elizabeth Unique Hotel Rome, Elizabeth Group expands its distinctive vision of luxury hospitality with its second flagship property in Venice. Opened in June 2026, the hotel joins the prestigious Design Hotels™ collection and has been conceived as an elegant private residence where art, architecture and culture naturally coexist. Rather than creating a traditional hotel, the concept evokes the feeling of staying in a refined Venetian home enriched by contemporary creativity and exceptional attention to detail.

Contemporary Design Inside a Historic Palazzo

Housed within a beautifully restored 17th-century noble palace, Elizabeth Unique Venice has been designed by renowned Italian designer Cristina Celestino, who reinterprets Venetian heritage through a contemporary lens. Original architectural features, exposed wooden ceilings and elegant proportions are complemented by bespoke furnishings, handcrafted marble details and rich Venetian materials including terrazzo, seminato flooring and traditional marmorino finishes. Throughout the hotel, carefully curated artworks selected in collaboration with Rome’s historic Galleria Russo transform the property into a living contemporary art gallery where every space tells its own story.

Individually Designed Rooms and Spa Suites

Each accommodation has been individually designed, ensuring that no two rooms are alike. The collection includes Initiale, Superior, Deluxe, Junior Suite and Suite categories, alongside the exclusive Spa Suites featuring private saunas. Soft color palettes inspired by Venice, bespoke furniture, Carrara and Fior di Pesco marble, designer lighting and artisan finishes create interiors that feel simultaneously residential and luxurious. Every room balances historical character with modern comfort while overlooking either the quiet canal or the charming streets of Cannaregio.

Italian Cuisine in an Elegant Garden Setting

The culinary experience centers around Da GrandMa Restaurant, an elegant destination hidden within the palace’s peaceful garden courtyard. Open throughout the day, the restaurant reinterprets classic Italian cuisine through a refined contemporary approach, combining seasonal ingredients with subtle international influences. Designed as an extension of the hotel’s intimate atmosphere, the restaurant offers a tranquil setting where exceptional produce, meticulous craftsmanship and understated elegance define every meal.

Art as Part of Everyday Hospitality

More than simply displaying artworks, Elizabeth Unique Venice places contemporary art at the heart of the guest experience. Through its partnership with Galleria Russo, one of Italy’s most respected galleries, the hotel showcases rotating works by leading contemporary Italian artists across its public spaces and guestrooms. This thoughtful dialogue between hospitality, culture and design creates an immersive environment where every stay becomes a journey through modern Italian creativity while remaining deeply rooted in Venice’s artistic heritage.
