Luna Hotel Baglioni

The Luna Baglioni Hotel, a member of Italy's prestigious Baglioni group, is said to be the oldest hotel in Venice. The Knights Templars are known to have stayed in a building on the Luna's site in 1118 during the Crusades, and Venetian archives show the existence of the "Osteria Luna" in the 13th Century. The "Locanda della Luna," or Luna Inn, was serving overnight guests in the 15th Century, and portions of the current building's decor predate the fall of the Venetian Republic in the late 1700s.
