IHG Signs Venice Times Hotel Into Vignette Collection, Expanding Italy Luxury Portfolio

IHG Hotels & Resorts has partnered with Pacini Group to rebrand The Venice Times hotel as part of its Vignette Collection, marking the brand's third signing in Italy within two years. The 30-room hotel, located in Venice's historic center near major attractions like Venice Casino and the Grand Canal, will feature Venetian-inspired décor and a cocktail bar, blending luxury with local character. This collaboration follows the recent opening of Garner Hotel Rome Aurelia and further strengthens IHG's luxury and lifestyle portfolio in Italy, which now includes multiple operational and developing properties. Both IHG and Pacini Group emphasize the partnership's focus on responsible tourism, community engagement, and the preservation of local heritage. The rebranding is expected to be completed by the end of 2025, enhancing IHG's presence in one of the world's most visited cities. This move allows the hotel to benefit from IHG’s operational expertise, technology, and loyalty programs while maintaining its unique identity.
