This charming, small property is located in an ideal, quiet position, in the historical centre, between Piazzale Roma and the stunning Rialto Bridge. San Marco 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.
This property is qualified as a 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. CQ 01/11.
