We dream about a stay at the Baglioni Hotel Luna Venice!

The Baglioni Hoel Luna in Venice, near Piazza San Marco, is currently undergoing restyling works and will be ready before this summer. It will reopen with renovated rooms, a new bar and restaurant run in collaboration with a star chef well as a spa with massage cabins, sauna, Turkish bath and relaxation room. Renovation in the historical memory of the city, as this 12th century aristocratic palace gave refuge to the Knights Templar in 1118. The real jewel is the San Marco hall, room where breakfast is traditionally served, whose ceiling is embellished with eighteenth-century frescoes, painted by pupils of the school of Giambattista Tiepolo.“

Recently, Reuben Brothers bought the Baglioni Hotel Luna in Venice for about 100 million. This is the second investment in the city for the two billionaire brothers, after the recent acquisition of the Palazzo Experimental, overlooking the Giudecca Canal, and follows the others in Europe and Italy, in Capri and Rome. 

The Canova Restaurant  is one of the finest Venetian hotel restaurants and an example of elegance and finesse in the international food and wine scene.

The cuisine offers an innovative menu that blends local Venetian recipes with the international trend and varieties. The restaurant in Venice will bring traditional Italian flavors to life in a modern interpretation. Massimo Livan’, the Chef's cuisine is creative, light, colorful, predominantly Mediterranean. The Chef gets inspiration from the story and the culinary tradition of Venice, which comes from «the study of the local culinary recipes interpreted in a modern way.
