Overlooking St. Mark's Basin, Hotel Savoia & Jolanda is located in the heart of the Venetian lagoon, in Riva Degli Schiavoni, just a stone's throw from Venice's most important attractions: St. Mark's Square, the Doge's Palace, the Bridge of Sighs and the Venice Biennale.
The hotel boasts a centennial tradition of hospitality and combines the timeless charm of a Venetian palace with modern and luxury services, such as free WI-FI internet connection, satellite TV, a private water taxi boat, an elegant wellness area featuring a sauna, and a fully-equipped gym with last generation machines. The unique style of its rooms is characterized by exclusive and top-quality Venetian furnishings, such as fine fabrics, refined boiserie, antique paintings, exquisite Murano glass, and flowered-filled balconies overlooking the lagoon.
An essential element of the hotel is Ristorante Principessa which offers a tempting selection of succulent Venetian food specialties, as well as an extensive list of wines coming from the best Veneto and Italian wineries. As can be deduced from its very name, Hotel Savoia & Jolanda is indissolubly linked to the House of Savoia - the Italian royal family - since its first origins in 1800. It is no coincidence that a few meters from its entrance stands the equestrian monument dedicated to King Vittorio Emanuele II.
Over the past decades, Hotel Savoia & Jolanda had the great honor of welcoming several renowned personages of the world cultural scene, among which the well-known and iconic Peggy Guggenheim, who stayed in one of its suites on the occasion of the XXIV Venice Art Biennale in 1948, where she exposed a comprehensive modern art collection in the Greek Pavilion. Visiting the Peggy Guggenheim Collection of Venice, it is possible to admire the picture of Mrs. Guggenheim captured while she was typing by the balcony of her suite. With Hotel Savoia & Jolanda, the guests live a truly authentic Venetian experience surrounded by a magical atmosphere and first-class hospitality services.
