An architectural landmark on the Grand Canal, just steps from Piazza San Marco, The Westin Europa & Regina, Venice offers an ideal combination of traditional elegance and modern technology. New rooms in the magnificently restored, centuries-old hotel feature the same Grand Canal views that inspired Monet, who painted the city while visiting. Chefs are ready to prepare savory regional dishes in the show kitchen at La Cusina. The salon atmosphere of Bar Tiepolo is ideal for tea or cocktails. During the summer season, the famous private beaches of the Lido - along with tennis, golf and boating at the hotel's sister properties - are just a complimentary boat ride away.
