Palazzo Genovese, Venice

Palazzo Genovese is a Gothic Revival-style palace located a few meters west of the Church of the Salute along the Grand Canal in the Dorsoduro sestiere of Venice, Italy. Commissioned in 1892 by the Genovese family as a private residence and designed by architect Edoardo Trigomi Mattei, the building is a faithful expression of Venetian Gothic architecture. It was later owned by the English aristocrat James Cook. Archaeological work on the site uncovered evidence of 7th- and 9th-century buildings, indicating a long history of settlement. Today the palace operates as the Sina Centurion Palace, a luxury hotel under the Sina Hotels group. The hotel offers elegant rooms with neutral tones, wood-beamed ceilings, and hardwood floors, each equipped with air conditioning, a minibar, and a flat-screen TV. Modern bathrooms feature bathrobes and slippers. Guests can enjoy a generous buffet breakfast with sweet and savoury options, drinks in the tranquil private courtyard, and the convenience of an exclusive private dock for water taxis. The Salute Vaporetto stop is located right outside, providing easy access to Venice's attractions. The property blends its historic charm with contemporary design, making it a distinctive hospitality brand in Venice.
