 The Hotel Villa Franceschi Venice is a unique luxury accommodation made up of several beautifully constructed 16th century villas, constructed close together along the banks of the delightful Brenta River. This picturesque region of Veneto lies just 20 km inland from the famous lagoon of Venice and was historically the location of choice for the wealthiest and most powerful families in the time of the great republic.
The Brenta Riviera
Indeed not five kilometres away along this calmly ebbing waterway are to be found the private summer residences of some of Venice’s most noted dignitaries, including the patriarchs of the city, and much of the architecture and frescoes within these glorious buildings is the work of great Venetian artists of the post-renaissance period. Excursions to the surrounding villas are highly recommended, as well as at least a day or two in the nearby city of Venice itself. |
