Ca' di Dio

An elegant Venetian bolthole that captures the spirit of the city

A Venetian palace hideaway set in the heart of the Floating City, Ca’ di Dio blends history with luxurious modernity. While parts of the hotel’s building date back to 1272, its latest guise gives it a flawless 21st century update that reflects the surroundings in every detail.

Environmentally Conscious

Drawing water directly from the lagoon to power its heat exchanger and cooling system, Ca’ di Dio is as innovative it is efficient. Tap water is carefully filtered, refreshed, and served in elegant glass bottles in the restaurant which is supplied with herbs from the vegetable garden, while bespoke bags and stationery stocked in the Ca’ di Dio boutique are made using reclaimed materials from the hotel’s construction – including recycled wallpaper as notebook covers. Guests are encouraged to explore the lagoon by rowing boat or on board hybrid electrical water taxis.

Cultural Custodians

During the meticulous restoration of the historic Venetian palace, with some parts of the building dating back to the 13th century, many of the original features were maintained including the door frames, flooring, statues, and ground floor ceiling in addition to the ancient trees in the garden. Materials were sourced exclusively from Italy, such as the handcrafted Murano glass lamps, while local craftsmen and artisans specialising in Venetian fine arts followed traditional building methods in the renovation which have been passed down the generations.

Community Minded

In collaboration with the Rio Terà Social Cooperative of Venice, which invests in work reintegration paths and supports the inclusion of inmates from the Venice prison in a series of social impact projects, Ca’ di Dio sells Malefatte bags and accessories in its boutique which have been made by female inmates using recycled PVC. The hotel purchases local wherever possible, including wine from Tri-Veneto, meat from Montello, and vegetables from St. Erasmo, while guests are invited to visit local Murano glass makers and Dalla Lidia, a historic Burano lace maker, to support the colourful artisan community.

Venice, at your feet

Step (or gondola glide) out of Ca’ di Dio and into the Castello of Venice, one of its most atmospheric districts. Lovers of art, history, architecture, or simply lovers will find plenty here to enjoy. The greenery of the Napoleonic Gardens (which houses the famous Art Biennale) is worth a stroll before you visit the imposing Basilica of San Pietro di Castello. Pop into the Chiesa di San Zaccaria to admire Bellini’s painting of a Madonna and child on its altarpiece. And don’t miss the famous archways of Piazza San Marco, just a short walk away.

New traditions

At Ca’ di Dio simply decide your mood and there’ll be a dining option to suit. Take in views as mouthwatering as the food at VERO Restaurant, a supremely elegant space overlooking the laguna. Enjoy a quick bite in the peaceful courtyard of Essentia Restaurant, shaded by parasols among mimosa trees. Or sit back and sip a classic cocktail in Alchemia Bar or the luxuriously furnished Reading Room. The hotel’s own kitchen garden provides fresh ingredients for its dishes, which are modern interpretations of traditional Venetian cuisine.
