Map & location


Venice City, Venice, Italy

Tucked away in Venice’s Cannaregio district, the hotel sits in a quieter, more local slice of the city – ideal if you love wandering narrow calli and discovering neighbourhood bacari. A short walk takes you to the nearest vaporetto stop for easy trips down the Grand Canal or out towards the lagoon islands, while back at base you can unwind in the private gardens overlooking the water and towards Murano’s glass‑making island.
  • Approx. transfer time from airport 30–60 minutes depending on mode (water taxi, shared boat, or bus plus vaporetto)

Facilities

Pool & outdoors


There is no pool or beach here – this is a classic Venetian palazzo hotel focused on culture, canals and city exploring rather than resort‑style facilities. Guests typically spend days wandering Venice’s churches, galleries and islands before returning to unwind in the gardens or bar.

Spa, sports & wellness


The hotel is all about slow city living rather than high‑octane facilities. You’ll find:

• Tranquil private gardens right on the canal – a rare luxury in Venice
• Atmospheric historic interiors with marble floors and period details
• Concierge desk for restaurant bookings, opera tickets, gondola rides and island excursions
• Reception with equipment for hire including fan, kettle and wheelchair (on request and subject to availability)
• Luggage storage for early arrivals or late departures
• Occasional shuttle boat services (seasonal and/or local charge)

There’s no on‑site gym or spa, but the concierge can usually recommend nearby wellness options if you’d like a treatment during your stay.

FAQs
Is NH Collection Venezia Grand Hotel Palazzo dei Dogi in a central part of Venice?
The hotel sits in a quieter residential area of Cannaregio rather than directly on the busy San Marco streets. You’re still within walking distance of major sights – around 1.4km to Rialto Bridge and 1.9km to St Mark’s Square – and only about 280m from a vaporetto stop for easy connections along the Grand Canal and across the lagoon.
Does NH Collection Venezia Grand Hotel Palazzo dei Dogi have a pool or spa?
No, this is a traditional city‑style luxury hotel in a historic palazzo, so there’s no swimming pool or full spa complex. The focus is on heritage architecture, comfortable rooms and tranquil gardens on the canal. The concierge can usually point you towards nearby wellness options if you’d like a treatment.
What kind of guests is NH Collection Venezia Grand Hotel Palazzo dei Dogi best for?
The property is ideal for couples, solo travellers and friends interested in art, history and gastronomy. With refined interiors, an adults‑oriented lounge bar and no kids’ club or pool, it’s more suited to grown‑up city breaks than to entertainment‑heavy family holidays, although children are welcome and restaurant highchairs are available.
Is breakfast included at NH Collection Venezia Grand Hotel Palazzo dei Dogi?
Many stays are on a Bed and Breakfast basis, giving you a relaxed start to the day in the hotel restaurant. Room Only is also available if you prefer to sample local cafés and pasticcerie. Always double‑check your chosen board basis during the booking process.
How do I get from Venice Airport to NH Collection Venezia Grand Hotel Palazzo dei Dogi?
From Venice Marco Polo Airport you can take a water taxi directly towards the hotel area, join a shared boat transfer, or combine a land bus to Piazzale Roma with a vaporetto ride. Private Venice city transfers can often be added when booking. During very low tides or if the hotel’s private mooring cannot be used, drop‑off will be at a nearby public dock, followed by a short walk.
Does NH Collection Venezia Grand Hotel Palazzo dei Dogi have Wi‑Fi and in‑room amenities?
Yes. Free Wi‑Fi is available throughout the property. Superior Rooms and Superior Rooms for Sole Use include a flat‑screen TV, coffee‑making facilities and kettle, fridge, minibar (local charge), safe, hairdryer, turndown service and air conditioning (seasonal), plus daily housekeeping with linen and towel changes.
Is the hotel suitable for guests with reduced mobility?
The hotel offers lift access and wheelchairs can be hired via reception subject to availability. However, Venice’s historic layout means cobbles, bridges and steps are common outside the property. If you have specific access needs, we recommend discussing your requirements with us before booking so we can advise in detail.
