Historical palace with direct access on Canal Grande, contemporary style with a fine Venetian touch, accurate restoration for the transformation into a deluxe hotel, view of S. Marco: these the main characteristics of the new Centurion Palace, the hotel that SINA Fine Italian Hotels just opened in Venice.

The new Centurion Palace is housed in the well known Palazzo Genovese, in the artistic area of Dorsoduro, besides the Basilica of Santa Maria della Salute, between Punta della Dogana and the Peggy Guggenheim Museum.

Acquired by SINA Fine Italian Hotels, the Palace dates back to the nineteenth century and has been accurately restored following the project by Arch. Luciano Parenti, from Venice: during the works, an ancient coin with the image of Antinoo, friend of Emperor Adriano, was found, testifying the close connection between Venice and the ancient Rome.

Inside the palace, the creativity and talent of Arch. Guido Ciompi, from Florence, made possible the union of the classical and contemporary style, according to what already done at The Gray in Milan, but with a unique touch for Venice.
