The History of the Hotel
Danieli Venice
The Hotel Danieli has offered a front row seat
to the most beautiful city in the world for centuries. The oldest
part of the hotel the "Casa Vecchia" or old house, was
originally built as a palace in the late 1300s by the Dandolo
family, a noble clan whose family history included four Doge's
of Venice. Over the centuries, the palazzo changed ownership many
times, but it wasn't until 1822 that it officially opened to paying
guests, when Giuseppe Dal Niel rented one floor of the palace
to operate as a guest house. Dal Niel was so successful that by
1840 he was able to buy not only that floor, but the entire palace,
christening it the " Danieli ", an anagram of his own name (he
decided his surname was too difficult to pronounce).
Since Dal Niel's era, the hotel has annexed an
adjoining palazzo and built a third, making a total of 233 rooms.
The three buildings operate seamlessly as one, linked by bridges
over the canals. One of the Danieli's charms is its' patina of
age. The Venetian Gothic lines of the hotel's soaring atrium stairwell
have been justly celebrated, but many of the guest rooms, particularly
those in the Casa Vecchia, are entirely outfitted in antiques
(making the fax machines in some rooms look a wee bit out of sorts).
The best rooms and suites command stunning views of Venice and
unfortunately this must be reflected in their price ; double-glazed
windows keep the noise from boats and tourists to a minimum. Since
1995, the Danieli has been part of ITT Sheraton's Luxury Collection,
now a part of Starwood Properties, enabling guests to take advantage
of amenities of the hotel chain's sister properties in Venice.
During the Summer season, June through mid-September, Danieli
guests may pop over to the Lido on one of the hotel's motor launches
and hit the beach or relax at the pool of the Danieli's sister
hotel the Hotel des Bains or the Excelsior. Discounted golf privileges
are available at the Golf Club Venezia course.
Enjoying a Location second to none the Danieli
Hotel Venice boasts a central location that Kings and Queens were
proud of... and so they should be because this is where they lived!
Indeed, most people choose the Danieli because they want to be
in the center of things. The Doge's Palace is next door, St. Mark's
Square is just steps away, and water taxis and vaporetti (water
buses) ply their trade incessantly in front of the hotel.
The Danieli Terrazza on the hotel's rooftop is
often called Venice's most beautiful restaurant because of its
180-degree view, but also serves some of the best Italian food
with a distinct mediterranean flavour. If we may be so bold may
we suggest a first course of succulent, fork-tender carpaccio,
followed by a seductive dark and extremely rich dish which is
a Venetian speciality , spaghettini al nero di seppia - thin spaghetti
with cuttlefish ink - wow a more sensual location and ambience
is surely difficult too find... Because the Terrazza has an open-air
section that is available from May through to the end of September
(weather permitting), it is an incomparable spot from which to
admire the beauty of panoramic Venice and ponder on how long people
will come here and admire the view for centuries to come.
