In Dorsoduro, directly on the Grand Canal, Sina Centurion Palace occupies the former Convent of the Genovesi beside Santa Maria della Salute. Behind its neo-Gothic façade, rooms and suites mix Venetian references with contemporary colour, sculptural furniture and richly patterned fabrics; many look across the canal or into the internal courtyard. Antinoo’s Lounge & Restaurant opens to a waterside terrace, while secluded garden seating offers a quieter counterpoint to the passing boats. Arrival by water places the hotel’s stone frontage, private landing and canal-level windows at the centre of the experience.
