Hotel Highlights

You'll be staying in a true living piece of history, the Built in 1308 for a noble family and renovated recently for your enjoyment!
Everything, and then some! You'll never have a hard time getting what you need at the hotel, brekkie's sorted and if you don't fancy bickering over where you'll be having lunch and dinner at - book it full board!
Eye of the Bull - you could not be more centrally located if you virtually stayed inside the San Marco Basilica, which is, by the way, only a 3 minute walk away!

We say Marco, you say Polo! We recommend flying into Venice Marco Polo Airport (VCE) for what will be a 15 minute seaside drive to the Piazzale Roma docking spot. From here you clear your throat, roll your pants up and hail a (water) Taxi! Or waddle onto a vaporetto for a cruise through the water until you reach the San Marco stop which is then a 5 minute walk to the hotel!
You may as well be handed the key to the city - You'll be staying right by Piazza San Marco being only a few steps away from the San Marco Basilica, its domes and the must-see bell tower!
The property overlooks the Orselo Basin which has been going strong since 1869 as the place where the gondolas of Venice go to sleep, what a sight to behold from your bedside window!

Breakfast - The question on everyone's lips! And to find the answer you'd have to look no further than the brekkie buffet (where no corners were cut) served between 7:00am to 10:30 am! Seconds are totally encouraged, with all that walking cut out for you, the extra fuel will come in handy!
Il Cavalletto Restaurant - On the ground floor and with unfiltered views of the basin, right by the water! Make a reservation and pick from a curated menu especially designed to offer an authentic culinary profile of Venetian cuisine.
Bar del Doge - Whether its for an aperitif before dinner, a nightcap before heading up to pass out for the evening or a midday cappuccino, there is no snacky or beverage need that the bar cannot meet!

Shop till you drop - The hotel is only a few meters away from the main shopping district of Venice, which is also, somewhat conveniently on the way to a major attraction the Ponte Di Rialto! Spare some time on your cultural venture to pop into some of the luxury boutiques in Calle Larga, with a selection like this one on offer right outside your door, it simply would be rude not to!
Casinò di Venezia - Whether you're feeling lucky or just quite fancy putting on your gladest rags and grabbing a cheeky cocktail in a bougie setting, with an essence of finery only Italy knows how to nail, then the Casino of Venice is a must visit during your stay!
