Independent Report
generalThis property has been taken over by a Ventian family that decided to give back to the Palace its old charme, going through an important renovation plan that produced great risults. The location is great, and the report quality/price is excellent. The hotel is made of 2 separate buildings, the fist building is the Ca' Malipiero, while the annexe of the hotel is called Ca' Formosa. both very close to each other and in the same style and type of management. Check in and check out must be done in the Ca' Malipiero Building. MQ 05/12
lobbyThe residence is situated on the second floor (no lift) via the staircase. The reception area is made of a small desk, for checking guests in and out of the hotel, and it is placed in a beautiful, luminous lounge with view over the Campo. Decoration is in subtle blue with gilt furnishings.
exteriorThe building is actually a Palace, it's named Palazzo Malipiero, dates back to 1400 and contains traditional Venetian features and architecture as well as beautiful gothic arches. Despite the age of the building, it has been well preserved and blends in well with the surrounding architecture. There is no name sign outside, as the exterior may not be changed in any way.
