Nolinski Venezia - Evok Collection
Nolinski Venezia – Evok Collection is a new expression of refined Venetian luxury. Situated in a heritage stock exchange building, the five-star hotel redefines sophistication through innovative artistry, exceptional service, and a deep respect for Venice's artistic past.
Operated by the Evok Collection—famed for its Parisian perfection—Nolinski Venezia marries timeless craftsmanship with cutting-edge design, creating an atmosphere in which past and future meet in perfect balance.
Location & Access
Ideally located at Calle Larga XXII Marzo, 2032, the property enjoys a high-end location midway between St. Mark's Square and the Grand Canal, placing it in Venice's most elegant quarter. Guests can travel directly to the property by water taxi, alighting at its own jetty—a privilege which serves to underline exclusivity.
The hotel, Doge's Palace, Teatro La Fenice, Bridge of Sighs, and Rialto Bridge are all within walking distance from the hotel. The area is bordered by high-end boutiques, gourmet cafes, and art museums, offering tourists seamless integration of cultural exploration and luxury. This unique location assures Nolinski Venezia embodies the city's essence—beauty, art, and peace, at an arm's length.
A Palace of Art & Architecture
Nolinski Venezia is housed in the Palazzo Chamber of Commerce, an old building redesigned by renowned architect Jean-Louis Deniot. The result is neoclassical design blended with modernity, so the space is at once timelessness and at the forefront.
Inside, marble columns and mirrored surfaces, along with custom furnishings, reflect Venetian water and light in a dance of elegance. Decor is a tribute to the city's craftsman heritage through the use of locally sourced materials—Murano glass chandeliers, Venetian plaster, and highly polished marble floors—by Parisian elegance adopting them.
The atmosphere inside the property is that of restrained serenity. Each corner has a story to tell of master craftsmanship, whether it is the majestic staircase or the bespoke art installations created to echo Venice's eternal love affair with light and reflection.
Rooms & Suites: Modern Sophistication Blends with Traditional Comfort
The hotel has 43 rooms and suites, each individually designed to marry Venetian lavishness with modern comfort. Interiors include velvet upholstery, geometric balance, and a color scheme reflecting the ever-changing colors of the lagoon—soft blues, golds, and greys.
Each room is an individual sanctuary, equipped with modern amenities:
High-speed Wi-Fi
Smart air conditioning
Nespresso coffee makers
Marble bathrooms with personalized toiletries
Soft bedding and soundproofing for quiet nights
The Nolinski Suite, the jewel in the crown of the collection, features panoramic city or canal views, private balconies, and expansive living areas that epitomize understated luxury. Whether traveling on business or leisure, each room is an embodiment of balance of intimacy, sophistication, and comfort.
Culinary Excellence: Palais Royal Restaurant Venezia
Within the heart of Nolinski Venezia's dining experience lies the Palais Royal Restaurant Venezia, a fine dining restaurant led by award-winning Evok Collection chefs. The restaurant brings a taste of Parisian cuisine to Venice, merging French accuracy and Italian passion.
Menues salute the finest local ingredients, including Adriatic seafood, Venetian vegetables, and French-inspired artisanal cheeses, reinterpreted according to French gourmet traditions. Gourmet breakfasts, à la carte lunches, and fine dinners are accompanied by a carefully curated selection of wines from Italian and French wineries.
For an even more relaxed experience, the Bar Library offers signature cocktails, tea, and light snacks among books and softly lit surroundings—a haven where art, conversation, and music come together.
Wellness & Leisure
True to Evok's philosophy of the holistic well-being philosophy, Nolinski Venezia boasts an enriching spa and wellness experience. The Nolinski Spa with its serene ambiance and marble coating provides massages, facials, and wellness therapies with high-end products.
An exquisite in-hotel pool—lit by gentle natural light—sits at the hotel's heart for relaxation. Relaxed guests can unwind surrounded by water and gold reflections, recalling Venice's waterborne spirit. There is also a fitness suite with state-of-the-art equipment and personalized training on demand.
The union of luxury and serenity makes the spa area not only an amenity but an essential element of the hotel's vision: to rejuvenate mind, body, and soul in an ambiance of aesthetic tranquility.
Service & Guest Experience
Nolinski Venezia excels by its concierge service, managed with efficiency and discretion. The staff is schooled in Evok's signature hospitality approach—foreseeing needs even before they are expressed.
Services include:
Private water transfers
Private art tours and cultural outings
Reservations at restaurants and room service
Organization of events and meetings
The multilingual hotel staff guarantees a smooth experience for every guest, from reserving a romantic sunset gondola tour or arranging a private visit to Murano glassworks. Every interaction in Nolinski Venezia is a testament to its attentive personal touch.
Design Philosophy: Where Paris Meets Venice
What sets Nolinski Venezia apart from the city's other luxury hotels is how it weaves Parisian chic and Venetian fervor. Designer Jean-Louis Deniot conceived each room as a visual dialogue between two worlds: Paris's architectural seriousness and Venice's sensual radiance.
Artworks by modern Italian and French painters cover walls, while bespoke fabrics and lighting provide each room with its own individual character. This harmony—ordered beauty and unbridled art—is an environment that's global in sensibility but uniquely Venetian.
Nolinski Venezia, therefore, is not just a hotel but more of a living gallery, one celebrating craftsmanship, culture, and cosmopolitan chic.
