For your vacation in Venice .......

This is not a hotel. It is a gracious country-house in the green, a few minutes from the "stones" of Venice.
Everything in the house, its rooms, public spaces, quiet reading rooms, is created to let the guest enjoy their days in a refined atmosphere spending an ideal vacation.

The Hotel Quattro Fontane is located 10 Km. from the Venice Airport.

To reach Piazza San Marco (Saint Mark's Square), you can take a boat that leaves every 5 minutes during the day, and every 20 minutes at night.

The charmingn Albergo Quattro Fontane is built on the site where, between 1573 and 1575, follwing the plan of Gian Antonio Rusconi and collaboration of Andrea Palladio, the patrician Daniele Pisani constructed the first and only "casino" on the Lido dedicated to the country delights and learned conversations of the Venetian aristocracy.

During the 19th century this "casino" became a tavern and the noted English poet Robert Browning was one of its regular customers.... "with Mr. Browning to go to Lido at 11,30 lunch at 4 fontane".

Between 1905 and 1926, a new building, inspired by the "chalet" and "cottage" styles, absorbed most of the original structure, but some arches, the big fire-place with its typical lion-shaped mantels and the four slender columns of the dining room were preserved.

The interior of the new inn contained 20th century furniture, some head "boiseries", coffered ceilings decorated with rosettes, valuable candelabra, and wrought-iron lamps which probably come from the foundry of Master Bellotto

The Hotel Quattro Fontane's rooms and public space offer a splendid selection of period furnishings, old paintings, a strange objects that delight the eyes and provoke the curiosity guests.The hotel's 60 rooms are very gracious and provide everything needed for a pleasant and relaxing stay in Venice
