Hotel Aquarius
The Hotel

Aquarius is situated in  the Santa Croce district, far away from the mass tourism. The palace overlooks San Giacomo dell’Orio square, an authentic island in the town, living in every moment of the day, where it is still possible to enjoy the true Venetian life among people still speaking Venetian dialect and where survive shops, nice typical restaurants and bars. The San Giacomo dell’Orio church, one of the oldest churches in Venice, frames this small popular and traditional corner.

San Giacomo dell'Orio

"L'entrata"
Discover the Hall

As already observed by others, the Venice map resembles a fish lying on the water. Inspired by this image, Aquarius likes to highlight the peculiar characteristic of this unique town, built on the water and from the water surrounded, where the canals reflect the facades of the buildings and magnificent palaces.
Entering from the main door, the attention is captured by the two huge aquariums, precious chests containing fishes and shellfish of the Lagoon. The aquariums converse with a precious Murano glass lighting installation representing a spectacular jellyfish dance stretching along the entire hall ceiling.
