NEW YORK, Dec. 13, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Collezione Em announced the opening of Violino d'Oro, a five-star boutique hotel in Venice that immerses guests in the heart of the city's cultural and artistic heritage. Nestled along the canals, just two minutes from Piazza San Marco, Violino d'Oro is an intimate Italian palazzo, meticulously crafted to offer an authentic Venetian experience.
Sara and Elena Maestrelli, the visionary architects behind Violino d'Oro, bring over three decades of hospitality expertise, emphasizing the Florentine Family's female lineage. This new masterpiece celebrates Venice's cultural significance, spanning from the 18th century to the present day.
