Book Ca' Sagredo Hotel Venice with VIP Benefits

The staircase by Andrea Tirali leads toward the Noble Floor beneath Pietro Longhi's The Fall of the Giants, a fresco signed in 1734. The painting gives the approach to the upper halls a sense of movement and scale. Here, the palazzo's fifteenth-century origins sit alongside the work of artists who decorated it in later centuries.

At the top is the Portego, a long, high-beamed hall from which the ceremonial rooms lead off. Gothic windows draw the eye toward the Grand Canal. On the walls, Andrea Urbani's eighteenth-century landscape paintings use trompe-l'oeil to suggest scenes beyond the room itself. The view outside and the painted scenery inside make this one of the building's defining spaces.

The double-height Sala della Musica has gilt-bronze chandeliers and eighteenth-century paintings by Gaspare Diziani. Figures and architectural illusions extend across the walls and ceiling, with the Sagredo coat of arms beneath them on the floor. A concealed door among the frescoes once led the family away from the ballroom during celebrations. The hall still hosts receptions and private events, continuing its role as a place for gathering within the palace.

The rooms vary because the architecture varies. In the Sagredo Venetian Double, period-style furniture and rich fabrics fill a space of 25 to 30 square meters. A king bed or twin beds can be arranged for up to two guests. The outlook may be onto the inner courtyard, rooftops or Campo Santa Sofia. These are town-facing rooms, without a promised view of the Grand Canal.

The Sagredo Venetian Junior Suite measures 35 to 45 square meters and accommodates up to three guests. It has a king bed or twins, a large sitting area with a sofa and a spacious marble bathroom. Period furnishings and rich fabrics give each room its own decoration. The outlook is toward the inner courtyard, rooftops or Campo Santa Sofia, where gondolas stop beside the square.

The Grand Canal Double measures 30 to 35 square meters and also accommodates two, with a king bed or twins. Silk fabrics and artwork frame the interior, while the canal and its boats provide the view outside. This category gives you the water-facing position without moving into a larger suite.

Grand Canal Junior Suites offer 35 to 45 square meters, with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the water. Brown, cream and gold tones run through the decoration. They accommodate two guests in a king bed or twins. Their tall windows bring the changing light on the canal into the room, making the outlook a central part of the stay.

For a separate living room, the Deluxe Suite Side Grand Canal has 45 to 55 square meters and accommodates up to three. The bedroom offers a king bed or twins, with a sofa in the living room. Antique furniture, gilt mirrors and Murano glass details sit within a cream and brown palette. Its side-canal position differs from the full canal-facing categories.

The Library Suite retains the eighteenth-century bookshelves that once held Zaccaria Sagredo's collection. White and pale green wood, golden carvings and alphabet letters above the shelves preserve the room's former purpose. An upper gallery with a wooden railing runs around the space. The suite measures 55 square meters, with a king bed for two and a Grand Canal view.

The Grand Suite occupies a former family reception room on the Noble Floor. At 110 square meters, it has an open-plan layout rather than separate bedrooms. Floor-to-ceiling windows stretch across a wall, facing the canal and city skyline. A king bed or twins can be arranged, and the suite accommodates up to three guests.

The Sebastiano Ricci Suite faces Campo Santa Sofia from the Noble Floor. Its painted ceiling is the central historic feature, with furnishings chosen to reflect the original decoration. The suite measures 100 square meters and accommodates up to three, with a king bed or twins.

At 75 square meters, the Stuccoes Suite was once part of Count Sagredo's private apartments. Its ceiling is covered in colored relief decoration, while the windows face the square. This suite accommodates two. The Heritage Suites place the emphasis on preserved interiors; a Grand Canal outlook belongs to different room categories.

L'Alcova serves lunch and dinner daily throughout the year. Chef Remo Marchiori's cooking draws on Italian and Venetian traditions, with ingredients from land and sea and produce selected from nearby Rialto Market. The wine list brings together labels from several Italian regions.

The dining room looks toward the waterfront and the market opposite. Outside, the restaurant terrace sits over the Grand Canal, bringing the passage of boats close to the table.

L'Incontro Bar offers an indoor setting and a terrace over the Grand Canal for an aperitif or an after-dinner drink.

The separate Rooftop Terrace opens seasonally from May to October, with published aperitif hours of 5 to 8 p.m. Spritz, Bellini and fruit cocktails are among the drinks served. This upper-level bar is distinct from L'Alcova's waterside terrace.

Venice Marco Polo is the main airport gateway. A private water taxi can take you from the airport pier directly to the hotel. From Santa Lucia railway station, arrival is also possible by private water taxi, or by vaporetto Line 1 to Ca' d'Oro. The hotel's private dock is on the Grand Canal, so a water-taxi arrival reaches the palazzo from its canal frontage.

Guests arriving by car leave their vehicle at Piazzale Roma or Tronchetto and continue into Venice by water or public transport. The hotel cannot be reached by road. Once at Campo Santa Sofia, the square and nearby Ca' d'Oro form the immediate surroundings, with Rialto Market visible across the canal.
