We found this hotel almost by accident on a spontaneous trip to Italy in May 2026, immediately fell in love with it and returned two times since then. It is not only the beautiful buildings, rooms, park and pool area, which are immaculate, clean and kept with great attention to detail. Also, which might be the most important point, it is the famiglia Dal Corso and their employees, which make the experience unique. Staying at Villa Franceschi does not feel like just sleeping at a hotel, it feels like staying as a personal guest of the famiglia Dal Corso, who go out of their way to provide you with everything you wish for, creating a prime example of Italian hospitality. This hideaway from the big crowds and full streets of Venice shows you the true meaning of la Dolce Vita. The Riviera del Brenta, once known for housing numerous venetian families during the summer months for hundreds of years, which provides you with anything you could ever wish for. And please, while you are here, try the restaurant, which will turn your dinner into an experience you would want to repeat every night. That‘s the reason why we don‘t know any other restaurants in the area.

Fantastic stay at Villa Franceschi. A beautiful hotel rich with history and very convenient to Venice and airport. The staff were absolutely amazing, it really made us feel like we were staying with family.
My wife and I visited in October ‘24 and I have thought of this hotel several times a week since then. It has been in a single family for many decades. It is warm and intimate and the facility is immaculate. There aren’t many rooms so you will not be overwhelmed by other guests but you WILL be blown away by the service you receive. The is a reason why many celebrities stay here. If you want a car to take you to Venice they will arrange that as well as a boat and guide for the day. Same if you wish to go to a Prosecco vineyard to the north. The restaurant is a 5 star with some of the same faces you see throughout the day. The style here is refined elegance so don’t dress like a slob as you will be surrounded by class in the guests as well as the staff. Look at the photos here. And if you do visit please take the time to speak with the owners who were the highlight of my stay and who truly made me feel as though I was a new old family friend.
Amazing Christmas time spent in this awesome hotel.The great service, rooms and atmosphere. Especially big compliment and respect to the young gentleman Filippo. The fact that the hotel is family-owned makes the quality magnificent! Highly recommend ♥️
Stayed for one night before departing Venice. It's about 20 minutes from Marco Polo. Beautiful property with a rich history,. The rooms are spacious with high ceilings and large beds. Very private and a lot of space in general. Staff is friendly and courteous, but seemed to be wearing multiple hats - waiter is also bellhop, receptionist is also waitress...no big deal but seems crazy if it's busy....which it was. Breakfast which I'm only interested in if I'm sitting somewhere I can see water or at least some beautiful architecture, which was the case here. However, the breakfast itself was literally inedible. Eggs smelled like fish, juice was sour and tasted spoiled, pancakes were beige and tasteless. Dinner at the restaurant is ok. It is overpriced and nothing special. Small variety, but staff's pleasant attitude makes up for the inadequacies.
