The hotel is a fine 19th century country villa with imposing downstairs areas. We had a large superior room overlooking the garden and drive with windows onto very small balconies. The decor is a bit old fashioned but in keeping with the building style. The bathroom was quite small and the shower cubicle could have been better. We found the... More

The experience of staying in an authentic Venetian villa close to the Brenta Canal more than outweighs the small niggles we found. The parking area is just inside the beautiful ironwork gates. The welcome in the reception was warm and the junior suite was beautiful (frescoes and Murano chandeliers), with a large balcony area (over the hotel entrance) which unfortunately... More

This hotel is ideally situated for a trip to Venice, a bus stops right outside the hotel and 30 minutes later you are in Venice. The Hotel staff were friendly and spoke very good english. There was planty of choice for breakfast and the evening meal was good value for money. We stayed in a superior room which was situated... More

Found this on Trip Advisor and booked for eight of us to stay for a long weekend, 3 nights, in June 2012.We all had very large rooms,each one slightly different(,eg some bathrooms had baths other just a shower box), but all rooms had doors out to balconies overlooking the extensive gardens. The rooms had a 'shabby-chic' style but were rather... More

We fell in love with this hotel when we saw it on Tripadvisor. The old villa with that old world glamour, the murano chandeliers, the high ceilings and the frescos were all bewitchingly beautiful! The well landscaped garden looked tranquil and inviting despite being winter. Going to Venice was also an easy access and parking was never a problem. The... More

This is a great alternative to staying in Venice. It is between the towns of Dolo and Mira, on the Riviera del Brenta, the canal that runs between Padua and Venice. It is in a villa built in 1884 that has been refurbished as a hotel. Although it has been completely modernized with air conditioning and mini bars in the... More

Wow! From the instant we drove through the gates we were impressed from the immaculate spacious gardens with fountains and statues to the grand entrance and foyer. Soaring ceilings, chandeliers and the biggest fireplace we have seen. The staff were excellent and very helpful despite our lack of Italian. This beautiful villa gave us a feeling of what it must...

We just had a truly amazing stay at this wonderful villa on the Brenta. We have chosen this venue for its good reviews and for the charm of the villa. The villa is conveniently located to visit the Brenta region and the historic cities of Venice, Padua and Vicenza. The rooms are elegant, tall frescoed ceilings, Murano chandeliers, and nice... More
