85 posti letto









Description
The San Marco Religious Hospitality House was originally the sixteenth-century convent of the Hermits of St. Augustine of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Monteortone.
MONTEORTONE gives its name to the town of about 2,500 inhabitants and to the Marian Sanctuary “Madonna della Salute” begun in 1428 and completed in 1495 with the addition of a nave and the bell tower, the work of Pietro and Tullio Lombardo.
The Sanctuary has a Gothic-Renaissance architecture, is embellished with various artistic works (by Palma the Younger, Jacopo da Montagnana, the Allio brothers) and preserves a miraculous image of the Virgin with Child and Saints of Byzantine origin.
The adjacent cloister (which is part of the Hotel) is enriched by an artistic well-cistern made from a single piece of marble dated 1589, by a Renaissance portal from 1605 from an ancient noble palace in Padua, and by frescoes attributed to the Paduan artist Giambattista Zeloti.
In the mid-19th century, the monastery, now abandoned but rich in a generous thermal spring called “Della Vergine di Monteortone”, was purchased by a wealthy family from Padua who transformed it, with architectural interventions still evident today, into the prestigious “Grande Stabilimento Termale di Monteortone”.
In 1937, the entire property was acquired by the Salesians of Don Bosco, who adapted the monastery as a theological seminary. In 1970, when the seminarians retired, they restructured it as the “Hotel San Marco,” which it still is today.
