A historical name among the five-star hotels in Venice, the Art Deco-style Hotel Bauer first opened its doors in Venice in 1880 overlooking the Grand Canal. In 2006, the hotel was expanded to the island of Giudecca, thanks to the meticulous restoration of a sixteenth-century convent originally designed by the famous Renaissance architect Andrea Palladio. Lastly, in 2011, after a precious effort at philological recovery, Villa F opened, inside a Renaissance villa.
