  Langham Hospitality Group (LHG) has appointed Vincenzo Finizzola as General Manager of The Langham, Venice. The veteran hotelier joins the Group to lead the highly anticipated hotel’s pre-opening preparations and 2028 debut.



A respected figure in the luxury hospitality landscape, Finizzola joins LHG with more than 40 years of experience gained across Italy and the United Kingdom.

Finizzola will report to Stefan Soennichsen, Regional Vice President, Operations – Europe at LHG.


Set on the waterfront of Murano Island, The Langham, Venice will transform the historic 16th Century Casino Mocenigo, and a former glass factory into a 133-room luxury resort, including 30 suites. Designed by Matteo Thun & Partners, the hotel will celebrate the island’s renowned glassmaking heritage while preserving the site’s Renaissance architecture, original 16th-century frescoes and industrial character. The resort will feature indoor and alfresco dining, a rooftop bar and a private cooking school, while a secluded courtyard garden with a 20-metre swimming pool will form the heart of the property. Together, these elements will set a new standard for luxury hospitality in Venice, seamlessly integrating heritage with modernity at one of the city’s most renowned sites.
