Bottom Line
The nine-room, mid-range Novecento Boutique Hotel is a family-owned inn in a quiet but central location that's convenient for both tourists and business travelers. Romantic and packed with character, the Novecento is exquisitely stylish, with quirky decor combining Mediterranean and Asian influences to create a cozy, visually inspiring space. Guest rooms are individually decorated with antiques, gorgeous textiles, and fun lighting fixtures, and have lovely modern bathrooms that, though on the small side, feel luxurious. Hotel Campiello is a comparable property in this price range though its decor isn't quite as special.

Scene
A Mediterranean and Asian-influenced jewel box, with antique furnishings, gorgeous textiles, and spectacular style
The Novecento Boutique Hotel is a jewel box overflowing with unexpected artwork, statues, fabrics, carpets, and homemade baked goods. The Romanelli Family has owned the Novecento for decades, and, along with a personal touch in customer service, each room, corner, artwork, and piece of furniture has been individually selected. The vibe is “ethnic chic,” with decor that combines Mediterranean and Asian furnishings and textiles. The antiques are early 19th century. The design is heavily influenced by world-famous artist and fashion designer Mariano Fortuny, whose lush, interesting fabric combinations can be seen in the hotel’s wall hangings, modern bed canopies, pillows, and upholstery. The hotel hosts monthly art exhibitions. There is a comfortable, exotic second-floor lounge and reading room, furnished with elaborately carved antiques, low couches, and shelves of books and guidebooks for borrowing. The Novecento’s brick-paved courtyard is picturesque and quiet, with tables and chairs under umbrellas, where guests can have breakfast or afternoon cocktails from the honor bar. The The picturesque Novecento is one of the city's more special hotels, which is saying something in a city as magical as Venice.
Because there are only nine rooms, guests can expect lots of personal attention from the owners and staff.
Location
Near the Grand Canal and the Piazza San Marco, but quiet, relaxed, and out of the way
The Novecento Boutique Hotel is centrally located, close to Venice’s Grand Canal, an easy walk to all the major tourist sights. The Santa Maria del Giglio vaporetto stop is within a short walk, and the Piazza San Marco is 10 minutes away on foot. The baroque church, Santa Maria Zobenigo, is 200 yards from the lobby entrance. The Novecento is quiet and relaxed, tucked away from the tourist chaos but close enough to the sights.
Rooms
Clean and funky, with cool artwork, stained-glass windows, and stunning textiles
The nine guest rooms at the Novecento Boutique Hotel are clean and individually decorated, with luxe Fortuny-influenced textiles and a mashup of Mediterranean and Asian style. Beds are wrought-iron or inlaid wood, antique or modern, with fancy sheets and plenty of pillows. The decor is quirky, with stained-glass windows, funky lamps, ornate chandeliers, cool sculptures, and interesting photography and artwork on the walls. Floors are terrazzo tile. Bathrooms are modern and updated, with pretty mosaic tile, wood floors, and either shower stalls or shower/tub combos. All rooms have air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs with satellite channels, minibars, safes, and C.O. Bigelow toiletries.
Features
Breakfast buffet, afternoon tea, reading room, and fitness center
The Novecento Boutique Hotel features a lovely courtyard, where breakfast, presented on an ornately carved antique sideboard, is served during the summer months. Little touches, like a Moroccan tea service with tea glasses, elevate this hotel above others in its category. Afternoon tea is served, and includes homemade pastries and biscuits. There is a reading room, where guests can relax with a snack, coffee, a drink from the honor bar, and a selection of the hotel’s newspapers, magazines, or books. Guests can use the Technogym fitness center at the Novecento’s sister hotel.
