The grand Palazzina Grassi hotel opens in the wonderful romantic city of Venice; designed by Philippe Stark, a world-class designer, he's a first rate cultural provocateur; conveying messages through bold gestures; this his first hotel in Italy. Every guest room has walls hung with over-scaled mirrors; all are backlit with LED lighting. "Mirrors have always been in the collective thought of Venetians" says Emaneule Garosci the young, hip owner of the hotel. This hotel is in a perfect position on the Grand Canal, yet away from the busy San Marco. The best time to visit this hotel and other wonderful historic places like the famous Guggenheim museum is in January as the tourists are not around! Visit www.palazzinagrassi.it
