Lion's Gate: Veneto

Tucked in the romantic streets of central Venice, this penthouse apartment opens its doors to the timeless magic of Italy’s floating city. From the private rooftop terrace (with views across the bell tower of San Marco) to the original features, personal touches and natural lighting, every detail has been considered to enrich your stay with the warmth and beauty of Italian living.

Feel serenaded by the majestic scenery whilst relaxing on the ‘Altana’ (traditional Venetian roof terrace), enjoy aperitifs as the sunsets and heartwarming gatherings around the perfectly positioned dining table. However you spend your time here, it’s the kind of space that will leave you feeling refreshed and inspired to explore.

From here, it’s just a five-minute walk to St. Mark’s Square, while the Biennale Gardens and Rialto Bridge are also just a short stroll away. From gondola rides and leisurely canalside strolls to browsing galleries and dining in candlelit restaurants, this home makes it possible to enjoy it all from the heart of the city.
