ABOUT ORIENT EXPRESS PALAZZO DONA’ GIOVANNELLI, VENICE
For the spectacular Palazzo Donà Giovannelli in Venice, the architect and interior designer Aline Asmar d’Amman designed and decorated the spaces. Venice, once the gateway to Constantinople and a mythical stop on the legendary Orient Express train – that opened its doors in 1919 with the completion of the Simplon tunnel linking Switzerland to Italy – will be the home of the second Orient Express hotel, set to open in 2025. Located just ten minutes from Venice’s Santa Lucia train station, next to the Cannaregio shopping district, and rooted in the origins of the City of the Doges, Palazzo Donà Giovannelli is a treasured palace built in 1400 by architect Filippo Calendario, known for Venice’s famed Doge’s Palace. Former home of the Duke of Urbino, a patron of the arts, it has been renovated twice, notably in 1800 by architect Gian Battista Meduna. At one time a pinacotheque which housed the painting La Tempesta by Giorgione, it was successively owned by the Donà and Giovannelli families.
The Night Manager of the 5-star Luxury Hotel “Palazzo Donà Giovannelli” in Venice plays a crucial role overseeing the smooth operations of the property during night-time hours. He/she will ensure exceptional guest centricity, maintain high standards of security and customer orientation and manage the hotel's various departments effectively during the night shifts.
