The facilities

Antico Doge's entrance and reception are narrow and uninviting, but once upstairs the smart light decor, polished wooden floors, and yellow, blue and cream colourways are a breath of fresh air after heavier Venetian fare. The 15 rooms all come with names - evidence of good attention to detail - and bathrooms are of cool marble. One suite has a balcony and a 4-poster, and a junior suite has a canal view. Ceilings are high in this luxury hotel, and walls are covered in fabric, while furniture is quality repro. Venetian glass is used in abundance.
