Palazzo Venart Luxury Hotel, Venice

The on-site GLAM restaurant holds 2 Michelin Stars and is the only one of its kind in Venice. Executive Chef Donato Ascani creates exclusive tasting menus served in a historic dining room overlooking the courtyard. Breakfast is also served in this Michelin-starred space, offering made-to-order dishes such as fresh omelettes and local pasta options.
