Doge
Europe / Italy / Venice
Doge, set in the historic Castello Orientale area of Venice, is a canal-side, four-story palazzo, with a private deck on the lagoon.
Overview
Just a short walk from the bustling Piazza San Marco, this hidden, and still unexploited, area of the authentic local life of Venice, is worlds away from the touristy parts of Venice.
Dating back to the beginning of the 15th century, Doge has been completely refurbished, in a very contemporary style, by its current owners. In addition to the stunning views, Doge offers to its guests both historical treasures, in its architectural structure, as well as all modern amenities, including a private elevator. Doge presents possibilities for a culturally filled and reinvigorating retreat in one of the most sought-after Italian cities. There are three Vaporetto (public water buses) stops nearby, a very convenient way to move around Venice and its islands.
