Description

Built in 1856, the Gabrielli Hotel stands out for its unique location a short distance from Piazza San Marco, with breathtaking views of the island San Giorgio Maggiore and the basin of San Marco.

Sacaim led the redevelopment of this historic complex, which has always been dedicated to hospitality.

The hotel was transformed into a refined five-star establishment through meticulous restoration and spatial redefinition, prioritizing quality over quantity. The redesign of spaces and functions was carried out with a deep respect for the history and identity of the place.

The project combined structural consolidation with the restoration of historic façades and roofs, the introduction of high-end finishes, and a reinterpretation of the common areas using traditional materials and architectural solutions in harmony with the context. A new glass and steel roof enhances the central courtyard, while the terraces overlooking the San Marco Basin have been connected to create a continuous scenic experience. The historic garden was also carefully and respectfully restored.

Thanks to Sacaim’s extensive experience in the restoration and enhancement of historic heritage, this project is set to become a true landmark in the luxury hospitality sector in Venice.
