Abano Grand Hotel

In downtown Abano Terme, about a 45-minute drive from Venice and roughly 61 km from Marco Polo Airport. Set steps from Piscin Termali Columbus and Urbano Termale Park, and close to the Amleto and Donato Sartori Mask Museum and the Colli Euganei — a prime spot for a luxury spa escape.

Some De Luxe Panorama rooms are styled Louis XV with marble bathrooms and views over the Euganean Hills, the park or the pools. The property sits inside a 20,000 m² tropical park and blends classic Venetian touches with modern wellness facilities.

Three year-round thermal pools (including a 36°C indoor pool), whirlpools, jets, hydrotherapy equipment and an Aqua Space private pool available for exclusive hire.
