 The magical Albergo Quattro Fontane is a hotel dripping in history, built on the site where, between 1573 and 1575 the building was the first and only casino on the Lido dedicated to the country delights and learned conversations of the Venetian aristocracy.
During the 19th century the hotel was transformed into a tavern where the noted English poet Robert Browning was a regular customer.
Between 1905 and 1926, the building was partially rebuilt to follow the 'cottage' and 'chalet' style of the time, this replaced most of the original structure, but some of the old traits of the building remained, such as the lion shaped mantels and the four slender columns of the dining room were saved.
