Hotel Heureka The quintessence of the Venetian way of life

Hotel Heureka is situated in the authentic heart of Venice, in the Cannaregio district, where the original Venetian life pulsates and is the ideal starting point to discover Venice and its versatility.

The hotel interiors are a fascinating mosaic of styles that give each space a highly original and unique look.

During the restoration, the history and traditions of Venice were carefully preserved, and are now enhanced by the modern design of the selected furnishings and fabrics. The interior of the rooms is a successful mosaic of different styles, which give each room its unique character. In many places in the hotel there are paintings by Julian Kohl, which the artist painted exclusively for the hotel.

The idyllic walled garden of Hotel Heureka, sipping a perfect breakfast espresso with the gentle sound of birdsong, is the true treasure of the Palazzo. On warm days it is an oasis of coolness and tranquillity, an ideal refuge to relax. At nightfall it enchants with its charm and ambience.

The two great Piani Nobili, the music room and the bar are open to all guests for pleasant hours or a relaxed end to the day. Fresh modern twist brings these rooms to life, and an exacting attention to detail has been given throughout, to create a design and decor that reflects the atmosphere and the grandeur which Venetian nobility would have.
