Hotel Ca' Pisani photo

The Ca' Pisani claims to be "the first Venice Design Hotel." The definition of a design hotel may be in the eye of the beholder, but Ca' Pisani certainly would appear to fit the bill: The traditional Venetian palazzo has an Art Deco feel inside, with original furniture from the 1930s and '40s in its public rooms, guest rooms, and suites.

The hotel is located just behind the Gallerie dell'Accademia, one of Venice's most famous art museums.

How to reach Ca' Pisani from the Zattere airport-boat stop:
