The Nolinski Venezia is a unique and mysterious Hotel 5* located in Venice, Italy, just a 5-minute walk from St. Mark's Square. As soon as you arrive, you'll discover a majestic façade adorned with chimeras, daughters of Poseidon, reminders of the power of the Serenissima, acquired through the waters. Inside, the soul of Venice vibrates!

We were lucky enough to visit the hotel twice: once to spend a memorable evening in the bar, lulled to sleep by the pianist. And a second time to try out the restaurant. We were able to visit the main lobby and chat with some of the team.

There are 43 rooms in the hotel, including 13 suites. They are spread over 5 floors and are all unique. They range in size from 20m² to 82m² for the largest suite. Don't miss the most luxurious suites, each with its own name: Bianca, Pietro, Caterina, Enrico, Giacomo and Tiziano.

The interior design is meticulous down to the smallest detail: gray marbro stucco for the headboards, red and soft pink velvet, blown glass lanterns inspired by those in the Doge's Palace, beautiful books selected by independent bookseller Anatole Desachy, gilded metal sliding doors, noble materials, thick carpets and heavy curtains. Venice is soft, comfortable and enveloping.

Remember the chimera-adorned façade? The hotel houses a collection of over 500 marine objects in Murano glass, carefully selected by architect Maria Pia. Each room has between 10 and 15 different pieces.

There are 2 restaurants to discover: Il Caffè and the Palais Royal Restaurant, which welcomes you in the sumptuous setting of an amphitheatre. Both are run by chef Philip Chronopoulos. His high-flying cuisine draws on French cooking techniques and inspiration from Italy and his native Greece. The result is stunning.

On the menu: yellowtail crudo with olive oil and lemon, saffron risotto or steamed Saint-Pierre with garlic and lemon potatoes. For dessert, try our homemade tiramisu and enjoy an Aperol Spritz as an aperitif. Our best spritz in Venice, despite the rather high price: around €25.

At the end of the evening, make a detour to the cocktail bar, a long, intimate setting with a sublime bar at the end. Raise your eyes to the ceiling to admire the fresco by Simon Buret... Your imagination takes flight! The subdued lighting, candles and lyrical piano notes make the atmosphere almost unreal.

To the side, a library of over 4,000 books, nearly half of which, as Venice is obliged to do, are on the subject of art. This library alone is worth a visit, with its wealth of rare, unusual and previously unpublished works. Open map to discover unique cocktails (we recommend you try the From Paris to Venice or ask the barman for advice), as well as some excellent wines and snacks if you're feeling a little hungry.

Other things we liked: the swimming pool on the top floor with deliciously warm water and 360° views over the city, the dog-friendly welcome and sincere kindness of the entire team throughout your stay. Special mention to Gabriel at the concierge desk and Fransesco, the young bartender.

The Nolinski Venezia is located in the heart of the luxurious Calle Larga XXII Marzo, the thoroughfare of Venice's top luxury homes. You're just 5 minutes from Saint Mark's Square and 10 minutes from the Rialto Bridge. We've got a great idea if you want to spend some quality time on the banks of the Grand Canal: breakfast on the outdoor terrace of the Saint-Regis, just a 2-minute walk away. Just perfect!
