WHERE WE ARE

Venice is only to be considered as made up of six historical sestieri, Santa Croce, Dorsoduro, San Polo, Cannaregio, San Marco and Castello, it should not be confused with the other Lagoon islands, much less with Mestre, Marghera, Zelarino, Favaro, Chirignago and the other mainland locations, which once composed the Venetian countryside and are now covered with cement and kilometres of asphalt.
Venice on the contrary is a maze of ancient pedestrian routes and canals crossed by bridges, where it is not difficult – and engaging – to get lost, but to reach our B&B is very easy and quick, even on foot.
Why then walking around with big bags and suitcases, looking for a taxi or being obliged to wait for a public means of transportation, if you can avoid all that? Moreover, we are in places that is not only very comfortable to reach but also among the richest in art and history and altogether well provided with food shops and supermarkets. A rare opportunity in Venice, that not many areas can offer.

A Venetian Home B&B is situated at only 5 minutes’ walk from Piazzale Roma car Terminal and 10 minutes from Santa Lucia Railway Station.
You can reach St. March Square, a tourist aim you cannot miss, in less than half an hour’s relaxing walk or, more comfortably, by vaporetto (water bus) along the Grand Canal, taking it at the near San Tomà stop.
If you love art, very close to your place you can visit the basilica of Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari (with works by Titian), the Scuola Grande di San Rocco (with works by Tintoretto), the church of San Pantalon and, if you like aperitives, in the near Campo Santa Margherita, besides the typical fruit, vegetable and fish market, you’ll find numerous bars, also with tables outdoors.

From our B&B not only St. Mark’s Square is comfortably reachable on foot, but also the nearer Gallerie dell'Accademia, Palazzo Grassi, the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, the Ca’Pesaro and Ca’Rezzonico Museums. But if you want to avoid the museums, the churches and the crowed places, you can get lost in the calli, campi and campielli around your place, letting Venice herself to take you where she wants, silently telling you her millenary history.
