Overview
3 Star, Superior Tourist Class Traditional Hotel
This charming small property is located in an ideal, quiet position, in the historical centre, between Piazzale Roma and the stunning Rialto Bridge. San Mark's Square is only 15 minutes away on foot or about 5 minutes by boat. Within a couple of minutes walk there is the Frari Church and the St. Rocco Great School. The Grassi Palace is also very close, only a boat stop away. The nearest boat stop, just 3 minutes walking distance from the hotel, is named San Toma' and it is serviced by boat lines 1 and 82, which run along the Grand Canal through a spectacular sightseeing journey of 10/15 minutes from Piazzale Roma or the Santa Lucia train station. The area is lively with the day to day life of the Venetians, and with many shops, Bars and Restaurants.
Rooms are elegantly decorated in Venetian style with original wooden beams on the ceiling. They are luminous and comfortable, quite spacious, even if quadruple rooms might look a bit crowded. There are also Superior rooms or Junior Suites that can accommodate families up to 5 people. All rooms and bathrooms have just been through a complete renovation and look in perfect condition. They are very well equipped with all the modern comforts and the latest technology. Few rooms present a king size bed and all rooms are non smoking, due to the precious fabrics used to decor.
There is a bright and luminous breakfast room, cosy and welcoming, where a buffet breakfast is served.
The building is a typical Venetian Palace dated back to the 15th century, recently restored to its former glory. Lobby is located on the first floor, reachable by lift, and it is made only of a small reception desk.
This property is qualificated as locanda due to the small number of rooms, only 12, therefore it is recommended to those who love the peace and quiet of small family run properties which can better concentrate on the quality of service offered. This charming locanda is definitely of a superior standard. Recommended.
