Between Venice and Padua - the Riviera del Brenta and the Veneto villas

Located right at the heart of the Riviera del Brenta, the hotel allows to comfortably visit the Veneto villas and their parks, sumptuous holiday houses built by Venetian nobles from the 17th century, some of which are the work of the famous Andrea Palladio.
Many of them are public, others are private, but can be visited by previous reservation. Villas can be visited in a number of ways: by driving or riding a bus along the main road on the side of the river or following the bicycle routes along the river Brenta (bicycles can be rented at the hotel). The most fascinating way to carry out your visit, however, is the old waterway, where the traditional boats, the burchielli still sail (advance booking with one of the companies organizing the traditional trips is necessary).
The Riviera del Brenta is famous for its food and wine tradition. There are many restaurants and osterias, mostly specializing in traditional fish courses.
This area is also well-known for the production of footwear, which results in many outlets where shoes can be purchased directly. Many international fashion houses have their top-level shoes produced here.
