Description:

fiogf49gjkf0d
Situated in the center of Venice, this hotel is superbly positioned in the Via XXII Marzo, only 200 meters from St. Mark's Square.

The guestrooms are all nicely furnished and equipped with private bathrooms, telephones, mini-bars, mini-safes, televisions, and radios.

The hotel restaurant, La Caravella, offers an extensive wine list and a variety of local and International dishes. Featuring a terra-cotta-colored facade with green shutters and balconies, the hotel offers 89 guestrooms in three connected 14th-18th-century buildings of 4-5 stories. Individually decorated rooms vary from classical Venetian style to Art Deco, but all rooms include small desks, safes, minibars, and dial-up Internet access. Most bathrooms contain shower/tub combinations, but two have stall showers without tubs. Terry-cloth bathrobes furnish lounging comfort. What to expect: Family-owned and operated for four generations, the hotel features an intimate ambience recalling its beginning in 1908 as a pensione (guesthouse). Original decorations include those from the hotel's center, a palazzo built for Vettor Pisani (1324-1380), who commanded the Venetian Republic's navy during conflicts with Genoa over control of Mediterranean merchant trading. Amenity highlights: In summer, a fifth-floor terrace furnished with lounge chairs, showers, and flowers offers sunbathing with views of Venice rooftops and several churches. The hotel's independently operated, candlelit restaurant, La Caravella, has attracted Venetians and visitors since 1963 with a ship's-dining-room decor, flower-filled courtyard in summer, and Venetian menu. The restaurant includes a marble-floored bar with leather seating. Insider tip: Guests emerging from the hotel's entrance face Bruno Magli and Bulgari shops directly across the street, one of the widest in Venice's historical center. Two computers on the second floor provide complimentary high-speed Internet connections. Complimentary passes are provided to a fitness center 400 meters (437 yards) from the hotel. A room off the lobby features scarlet plush-fabric seating and a wood-burning fireplace. The hotel staff speaks fluent English. A complimentary buffet breakfast is provided each morning in a room with an elaborately molded ceiling.

La Caravella - Established in 1963. Wood-paneled interior recreating Renaissance-era Venetian ship's dining room, including massive safe from ship named La Caravella. Candles, fresh flowers. Lunch/dinner menu includes traditional Venetian fare, with emphasis on

Marco Polo Airport (VCE): Approximate driving time to the Piazzale Roma, historical Venice's only entry point by car, is 20 minutes and distance is 13 km (8 miles). Car rentals are available online, and there is public parking at Piazzale Roma, the historical center's land-transportation terminus, and a parking garage at nearby Tronchetto.

Getting there: From the airport, visitors go by water or by land across the lagoon to historical Venice. By water, the fastest and most expensive way is by water taxi. Less expensive and slower is a boat that stops at other islands in the lagoon and terminates adjacent to St. Mark's Square in St. Mark's Basin, approximately 250 meters (273 yards) from the eastern end of the Grand Canal. By land there are taxis and buses that go from the airport to Piazzale Roma, the historical center's land-transportation terminus near the train station (Stazione Ferroviaria). From Piazzale Roma (and from the train station on the opposite side of Grand Canal), public waterbuses (vaporetti) go to various stops around the city along the Grand Canal and other major waterways. More expensive water taxis go from Piazzale Roma and the train station more directly to, or near, hotels via smaller canals.

Directions to hotel: The St. Mark's Basin waterbus stop nearest the hotel is Vallaresso, 200 meters (219 yards) away. After getting off the waterbus, walk straight on Calle Vallaresso away from the canal to the first street and turn left. Proceed on that street over a little bridge, where the
