Palazzo Pisani Gritti

The Palazzo Pisani Gritti is a Venetian Gothic palazzo located on the north side of the Grand Canal, opposite the Church of the Salute, between the Campo del Traghetto and the Rio de l'Alboro [fr], in the Sestieri of San Marco, Venice, Italy.

[citation needed] It was redesigned in Venetian Gothic style for the Pisani family in 1475.

John Ruskin and his wife Effie lived at the Palazzo Gritti while he wrote The Stones of Venice.

In 1947, it was bought by the Compagnia Italiana Grandi Alberghi and renamed the Gritti Palace Hotel.

[2] It has two restaurants, the Club del Doge, and the Gritti Terrace directly on the Grand Canal, which offers food as well as the Bar Longhi and the Riva Lounge.
