Dining information

Your day begins in the bright breakfast room, where a generous buffet is served each morning. Expect a classic continental spread alongside hot options, fresh fruit, pastries and coffee, all enjoyed in a warm, elegant space that reflects the hotel’s timeless Venetian style. Some tables overlook the nearby gondola basin, allowing you to start the day with views of one of the city’s most iconic sights.

Later on, Bar Cavalletto offers a relaxed setting with an unmistakably Venetian character. Stop by for an afternoon coffee or evening aperitif, with spritzes, Negronis and classic cocktails on offer. The interiors are refined yet inviting, with soft lighting, traditional detailing and a cosy atmosphere.

While there’s no formal a la carte restaurant, the hotel embraces a more casual approach to dining that suits Venice’s cafe culture. The bar menu offers light bites and Venetian cicchetti-style snacks, ideal for an informal lunch or pre-dinner aperitivo. Whether you’re pausing between sightseeing or unwinding after a day exploring St Mark’s Square, just moments away, it’s an easy place to enjoy something simple and distinctly Venetian before heading out to discover the city’s wider dining scene.
