Ca' Bonfadini
Located on Fondamenta Savorgnan in Venice's Santa Croce, Ca' Bonfadini Historic Experience is a perfect expression of Venetian majesty. The former palace belonging to the aristocratic Bonfadini family, this 18th-century palace has been painstakingly restored to a five-star hotel where ancient and modern comfort coexist in total harmony.
Ca' Bonfadini is more than a accommodations complex—it is an experience that transports visitors back to the heights of the Venetian Republic when art, architecture, and culture were in their prime. Sophistication infuses every nook and cranny of the palace, and it is a luxury retreat for discerning travelers who want a true taste of Venice's historic heart.
A Prestigious Location in Santa Croce
Located at Fondamenta Savorgnan 462, Ca' Bonfadini provides its visitors with both peace and accessibility. The hotel is close enough to Venezia Santa Lucia Train Station to walk there in a short time, making arrival easy while also offering the peace of a canal-side location.
Tourists can stroll to adjacent tourist attractions such as the Grand Canal, Rialto Bridge, and Piazza San Marco with the vaporetto (water bus) or water taxi. The adjacent Santa Croce neighborhood offers a relaxed, old-world Venetian atmosphere—where craft shop shops, old-world trattorias, and mysterious courtyards recreate Venetian everyday life.
Although it is right next door to the other major sites, there is a homey ambiance in the palace where tourists can enjoy a peaceful park within the city's rhythm and charm.
