VENEZIANA Boutique Hotel Superior

With bespoke, modern interiors married to a historic building, this boutique suite is the ideal starting point to dive into the famed truffle-infused cuisine of Istria, explore the Venetian history and architecture of the northern Adriatic, or just enjoy the stunning views you'll discover riding the famed Parenzana, a disused railway turned into a bicycle path. Located in a quiet part of the historic old town, but just minutes away from the city beach, this is the best of all worlds unless you're a party animal. And with our comprehensive online guide, you'll have expert local advice to rely on, making this your best holiday ever. With all the modern comforts, including an espresso machine in each room, you'd never guess you were staying in a house that dates back to the 14th century. With the lively modern city bustling in the background, you'd never know this was little more than a quaint port village not two centuries ago. And with it being situated squarely in Slovenia, you wouldn't guess at its Venetian past. Yet it is all of this, and more. A lovingly restored, historically listed building from the era of the Venetian Republic that sits astride the old city wall, bearing signs of several architectural periods and styles, yes, but also a modern boutique hotel, a place to relax in a private SPA center and get inspired for day trips, or just crisp, fresh sheets that await after a full day of adventures. Don't worry if it all gets a bit confusing, the house was part of four different countries in the 20th century alone, so identities are a bit fluid.
