This stunning apartment was once the Venetian home of Hubert de Givenchy. Staying here is an unforgettable way to experience the charms of Venice. Look forward to bright, elegant interiors, beamed ceilings, and a rooftop terrace with city views. The Audrey Hepburn room showcases her handpicked fabrics and boasts views of St Mark’s Campanile. Refined and comfortable, this apartment, spread over the top two floors of a palazzo, is also conveniently located – the Peggy Guggenheim Collection is a stone’s throw away.

Host
This home is managed by Oliver
