Palazzo Stern

Facing the Grand Canal, a few Steps from Saint Mark’s Square and from Accademia, surrounded by artistic beauty and by the peacefulness and quietness of an everyday Venice, Palazzo Stern is a Historical Palace with only 24 rooms. Once the home of a well-known art collector (Ernesta Stern), enhanced by art work of all ages and rich with ancient historical memories, the structure is built with maximum accuracy to every little detail, enriched with antiquities, sculpture and valuable furniture. The rooms are mostly facing the Grand Canal, some are on the “ Rio del Malpaga” and others face the garden.

A unique and unforgettable experience that will take you back in time. The breathtaking view from the Terrace on the Grand Canal and the peacefulness of the Flat Roof (with Jacuzzi) are scenes of incredible romance and beauty,the perfect places to enjoy a drink or read a book.
