IHG Signs First InterContinental Hotel in Venice

IHG has signed its first InterContinental hotel in Venice.

The InterContinental Venice - Palazzo Nani will operate under a franchise agreement with Cordifin Group and H.n.h Hotels & Resorts Management. It is scheduled to open at the beginning of 2018.

The building will be converted from a stunning 16th century palace into an intimate 51-room InterContinental hotel.

The palace’s hand painted alfresco ceilings and hand-carved wooden beams will be restored to their original beauty to preserve the building’s rich history.

The hotel will feature a wellness centre, modern meeting facilities and Club InterContinental Lounge.

Visited by more than 60,000 visitors a day, the city of Venice dates back to the 5th century and is famed for its matrix of canals connected by beautiful adorning bridges.

InterContinental Venice – Palazzo Nani will lie on the Cannaregio Canal which connects to the Grand Canal at the epicentre of Venice’s vibrant island.

Robert Shepherd, Chief Development Officer, Europe, IHG said, “We’re delighted to be partnering with Cordifin S.p.a to bring the first InterContinental hotel to Venice. It’s great to see momentum behind the brand continuing as we get set to celebrate its 70th anniversary this year.
