A stone's throw from the Piazza San Marco, in the very heart of Venice, close to the major sites and museums as well as the most prestigious stores, the Luna Baglioni enjoys a gorgeous panorama on the lagoon, San Marco and St George's Island. The oldest hotel in the city, the Luna Baglioni offers its distinguished guests a magical stay in a timeless aristocratic setting. In 1118, the hotel hosted the Knights Templar on their way to the Holy Land. In 1574, the hotel was already mentioned under the name “Locanda della Luna”. The sumptuous Marco Polo Ballroom was adorned in the 18th century with lovely frescos painted by students of the master Tiepolo. Thanks to extensive recent renovations, the Luna Baglioni has been restored to the splendour of its heyday.

18th century furniture and crystal chandeliers ennoble the lobby while luxurious corridors immerge guests in the utmost elegance. Impeccable service and an attention to detail further enhance your stay. Rooms are spacious, tastefully decorated with period pieces and offer all the modern comforts alongside priceless décor and magnificent paintings. High society has always chosen to stay at the Luna Baglioni for their trips to Venice, and the hotel has won countless awards for being one of the top 5-star luxury destinations in the world.
