Bottom Line

A luxurious, 72-room converted palazzo in the northern edge of Venice, Grand Hotel Dei Dogi, The Dedica Anthology is a quiet retreat from the chaotic heart of the city. The rare, private garden and spa with hot tub, sauna, and steam room are highlights. Rooms have classic decor and Venetian portraits, but upgrading to a Junior Suite gets guests more space and style -- these rooms have high ceilings and intricate crown molding. The hotel's location is far from Venice's main attractions, but it does offer free water taxi service to St. Mark's Square and Murano.

Oyster Hotel Review

Grand Hotel Dei Dogi

Scene

A small, opulent hotel in a historic palazzo

The grand lobby and hallways of this converted palazzo are filled with striking Venetian portraits, lots of marble, frescoes, and big chandeliers. Located away from the crowds, this well-kept hotel has a peaceful feel, especially in the back garden and quiet spa. The preserved hidden garden is rare for a Venice hotel, and has lawns, a white canopied area with lounge chairs (where breakfast is served in warm weather), and meandering pathways surrounded by greenery.

All rooms have big marble bathrooms; some have canal views, while others face the garden.

Features

A big, private back garden and peaceful spa

This converted palace is isolated from main attractions, but provides a peaceful retreat. A big, private back garden is a rare green space in Venice and the peaceful spa has a sauna, steam room, and hot tub (and a menu of spa treatments). A free breakfast includes a buffet and items cooked to order, and tables are located in the lobby (an area the hotel dubs a Dynamic Hall, meant to encourage guest interaction); in warm weather, guests can eat under the canopy in the garden. There is a cozy bar with wood beam ceilings as well as an on-site restaurant.
