Overview

It's often said that food is the key to a new culture and destination, and when it comes to Venice truer words may have never been spoken. The Lagoon city has over 2000 years of culinary history with influences from all over the world. Today still, while savoring Venice's most iconic dishes, we can relive this city's glorious past and discover her most authentic traditions.

We find Alloggio Casa Loredan in the penthouse apartment of the historic 16th-century Palazzo Loredan that once belonged to the Venetian Aristocrats – The Loredan Family. Here is where Chef Mr. Gemin grew up and learned Venice's vast culinary tradition from his mother. Chef Gemin decided to turn the penthouse apartment into a private residence to welcome visitors with a real, authentic, genuine Venice experience.
Good to Know: Alloggio Casa Loredan is located at the 3rd floor of Palazzo Loredan, NO LIFT AVAILABLE
