"Gothic outside, contemporary inside, the five-star 50-room Centurion Palace looks across the Grand Canal towards San Marco from the quieter, artsy Dorsoduro district." Full review
Independent "Centurion Palace is Italian-owned, modestly-roomed (there are just 50 in the vast property) and really rather lovely; the bar and restaurant both have seating cantilevered over the Grand Canal."
