The St. Regis Venice with its avant-garde outlook and design, perfectly blends striking, modern interiors with its historic provenance as the best address in the city. The hotel is rich in art history, with the illustrious impressionist painter, Claude Monet taking residence at The St. Regis Venice (at the time Grand Hotel Britannia). Located just off the iconic Grand Canal, guests can take on the city by foot to discover nearby art galleries, Teatro La Fenice, the treasures of Piazza San Marco, and much more.
