Sisters Sara and Elena Maestrelli bought three adjoining houses in San Marco that were already small hotels, then pulled the density out of them and reopened the lot as one house at the end of 2023. They named it Violino d'Oro. Leading Hotels of the World is the association on the door. The windows look onto a quiet canal a short walk from St. Mark's Square.

About Violino D'Oro
- The three shells date to the seventeenth century, about 1650, and each had been running as its own three- or four-star hotel before anyone joined them.
- The door is at San Marco 2091. Cutting the combined inventory from more than sixty rooms to thirty-two was the whole renovation.
History
Hotel Violino d'Oro spans three adjoining 17th-century buildings in Venice's San Marco district, each of which had previously operated as a small three- or four-star hotel. When sisters Sara and Elena Maestrelli acquired the trio of properties, they found more than sixty rooms among them.
Rather than preserve that density, the Maestrellis enlarged and reconfigured the spaces, reducing the room count to thirty-two more spacious accommodations, and opened the reimagined Violino d'Oro at the end of 2023 as a refined boutique hotel overlooking a quiet canal near St. Mark's Square.
