Biennale Arte 2026: Nani Mocenigo Palace and Ca’ Maria Adele

Two residences in the heart of Venice’s cultural district.

On the occasion of the Biennale Arte 2026, Venice once again takes center stage as a global capital of contemporary art. Within this exceptional setting, Nani Mocenigo Palace and Ca’ Maria Adele stand out as two refined hospitality destinations located in the heart of Dorsoduro, one of the city’s most authentic and vibrant districts. Just steps away from major cultural institutions such as the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, the Gallerie dell’Accademia, and Punta della Dogana, the two properties offer privileged access to Venice’s artistic scene, turning every stay into an immersive journey through art, architecture, and contemporary culture. The integration of Ca’ Maria Adele into the Nani Mocenigo Palace universe reinforces a shared vision of hospitality: intimate, cultured, and deeply rooted in the city. Two distinct yet complementary spaces, offering a more authentic Venice beyond conventional itineraries.

Nani Mocenigo Palace: a historic residence between art and modernity

Located in the heart of Dorsoduro, Nani Mocenigo Palace is far more than a hotel—it is a historic residence embodying the aristocratic soul of Venice. Set in a 15th-century late Gothic palace, it preserves frescoes by Jacopo Guarana and stuccoes by Alessandro Vittoria.

Overlooking the Rio di San Trovaso, the property blends noble heritage with contemporary elegance. Once home to Elena, daughter of Doge Agostino Barbarigo, the palace now hosts a boutique hotel with 32 rooms and suites. Beyond luxury hospitality, it serves as a cultural hub, hosting exhibitions and creative collaborations. The experience is completed by a rare inner garden and the culinary offering of La Bauta, curated by Michelin-starred chef Gennaro Esposito.

Ca’ Maria Adele: a theatrical retreat on the Salute Canal

Overlooking the Salute Canal, next to the Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute, Ca’ Maria Adele offers a truly immersive and sensory hospitality experience.

With just twelve rooms and suites, each designed as a unique world, the hotel stands out for its strong visual identity—velvets, oriental inspirations, Moorish references, and rare antiques create an evocative, timeless atmosphere. From the terrace overlooking the domes of the Salute to the eclectic lounge and the Murano-glass-lit breakfast room, every space contributes to a narrative that blends cultures, eras, and aesthetics into a refined harmony.

Hospitality as an artistic experience

During the Biennale, both hotels become part of Venice’s cultural landscape. At Nani Mocenigo Palace, art dialogues with history and contemporary creativity; at Ca’ Maria Adele, every detail becomes part of an immersive scenography.

In both cases, hospitality evolves into a complete cultural experience—where art is not only observed, but lived. Two addresses, one vision: experiencing Venice through art.
