Dear guests, Andrea and Lucio warmly welcome you to Palazzo Guardi, magnificent Venetian palace that dates back to the 15th century. It has been turned into highly comfortable, light and airy rooms of superior standard, all furnished in typical Venetian stile. Palazzo Guardi is situated in the Accademia area, a central and strategic part of Venice, and precisely at San Trovaso which is 10 minutes on foot from St. Marks square and Rialto.
 
This palace takes its name form the famous artist Francesco Guardi, known above all for his landscape paintings which are considered on a par with those of other illustrious Venetian artists such as Canaletto and Tiepolo. His large paintings were inspired by the scenes of the antique Venetian Republic and in old Venetian tales told the building is often mentioned.
 
Palazzo Guardi is divided into 2 structures which offer our Guests maximum convenience. The Main Building has 8 rooms and the Annexe, 100 mt far, has 7 rooms. One building has a magnificent original central hall, with a breathtaking view over the canal and the nearby "Squero (shipyard) di San Trovaso".

Here dating back to the antique Venetian republic and up until present days, the original Venetian gondolas are constructed; those boats which have made Venice famous throughout the world.
 
The other building has been turned into the breakfast hall which is adorned with the authentic 15th century wooden beams and decorations. This area can also be used for conferences and in summer the beautiful private courtyard provides a perfect setting for breakfast "al fresco".
 
The buffet breakfast can be served in the elegant breakfast area or it can be delivered to the room where our guests can enjoy, in the comfort of one's room, the magic atmosphere of Venice. We also offer, in the central hall, a private corner where our clients are able to us a small p.c. for personal correspondence and internet.
