 Fontego dei Turchi 1739 Santa Croce , Venice 30135
Located in the heart of ancient Venice among merchants' houses and artisan shops, this fifteenth-century palace was the home of the Doge of Venice. This is where the hotel's staff have the pleasure of welcoming their guests today. Magnificently located just steps from the Rialto bridge and the Ponte degli Scalzi ('Bridge of the Barefoot'), close to the Grand Canal, it's the ideal point from which to discover the 'hidden' Venice, without neglecting the proximity to the city's points of arrival.
