One of the most significant attractions of the Hotel Abbazia is the originality of the design, which characterizes its rooms.  Luminous and spacious, they have all the necessary comforts.  Some even have private balconies; others, a view of the nearby monastery.

The Villa Abbazia Hotel is an ideal place to stay in a charming corner of the world.  In the Veneto Region, one of the main attractions are undoubtedly the Venetian Villas.  These country mansions, formerly summer houses for 16th- and 17th-century aristocratic Venetian families, had been closed and neglected for many years.  In recent times private citizens, who were aware of the beauty and of the great artistic value and heritage of these homes, have started to save and restore some of them and turn them into fine hotels.  One of these examples is the Villa Abbazia.

Located at the foothills of the Venetian Pre-Alps in the area of the Treviso Marca, the Villa Abbazia is the perfect starting point for excursions to wonderful places like:

  • Venice, one of the most romantic cities in the world
  • Cortina, known as the pearl of the Dolomites
  • The basilica Santa Maria of Follina, better known as the Abbey of Follina, part of a monastic complex dating from the 12th century.
  • Villas of the Veneto Region including:  Villa Marcello, Villa Emo, Villa Almerico and Villa di Maser.
  • Treviso, known as Little Venice, surrounded by walls, crossed by waterways, with many beautiful churches and frescoed houses.
  • Asolo, home of the castle of Queen Cornano.
  • Vittorio Veneto, an ancient town rich in history and architecture.
