La Minerva Suite

Named after Minerva, Roman goddess of wisdom and the arts, this suite is located in one of the Palazzo’s most iconic corners, overlooking two canals. The space is crowned by an original 1710 fresco by Jacopo Guarana, one of the oldest artistic treasures in the hotel, set within a curved, reeded ceiling framed by delicate stuccoes. Pastel furnishings reflect the fresco’s tones, while a Murano-accented drinks cabinet invites a pause to watch boats glide below. The king bed faces a rare Venetian corner window, flooding the room with reflections of water and sky. The experience concludes in a bathroom carved entirely from Venetian marble, its sculptural forms recalling Ca’ d’Oro and the Basilica di San Marco.

For your perfect comfort, this suite includes:

  • Views over the Rio di Noale and Rio di Santa Fosca
  • Original 1710 frescoed ceiling
  • Open-plan living and sleeping area
  • King bed facing a Venetian corner window
