| Attractive, enveloping, refreshingly different and run with commitment by Gioele Romanelli (whose father owns the excellent Hotel Flora, also highly recommended). It’s a bit like walking into a Marrakech riad, with furniture, beds and fabrics from the orient, and a whiff of incense in the air. Cosy and intimate, with just nine bedrooms. |

THEY SAY: The stylish Novecento Boutique Hotel is tucked away in Calle del Dose, off Campo San Maurizio, between St. Marks Square and the Accademia Gallery. The hotel offers its guests the chance to stay enveloped in an evocative atmosphere, created by a décor steeped in Orientalism and a passion for exquisite materials and fabrics. The original furniture and tapestries from both the Mediterranean world and the Far East give the nine rooms, all with en-suite bathroom, an exclusive and refined character. The rooms blend the allure of an elegant exoticism with the most up-to-date facilities. Those who would like to spend time relaxing in the hotel will find a comfortable sitting room where they can read the papers and help themselves to a drink.When the weather is good, breakfast can be served in the small garden.
The staff is friendly and attentive, as has come to be expected from the Romanelli family, hoteliers in Venice for generations. The hotel also organises regular art exhibitions, which are important dates in the citys cultural calendar. Guests thus have the chance to meet local and national artists in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, in keeping with the hotels spirit. Influenced by the style of the early 1900s, it is no coincidence that the hotel draws its main inspiration from Mariano Fortuny, painter, fashion designer, scenographer and known for his ability to experiment in all areas of art. He moved to Venice in 1889 and made the historic Palazzo Pesaro-Orfei his home. From here Fortuny style spread throughout Europe.
