On the same site where the current Albergo Quattro Fontane is now located, there once was, from 1575, the first casino in Lido, which had been constructed under guidance from the great architect Palladino.
During the 19th century, however, the casino was converted into a tavern, famously with the English poet Robert Browning being one of its regular customers.
The current building is from a reconstruction work done between 1905 and 1926, finished in style inspired by ‘chalet’ and ‘cottage’ architecture.
