01 · In a sentence

Hotel Arcadia Venezia in Venezia, open JuneSeptember.

Hotel Arcadia Venezia rises along Rio Terà S.

Leonardo, a pedestrian waterway in Venice's Cannaregio district, where gondolas drift past Renaissance facades and centuries-old bridges frame every window.

The hotel's position on this quiet canal offers guests views of authentic Venetian architecture without the crowds of San Marco, with direct water access and the lagoon's ever-shifting light reflecting off brick and stone.

Located just steps from the Rialto Bridge and the city's maze of intimate piazzas, the venue captures the essence of Venice's maritime character while maintaining the seclusion needed for a private celebration.

We loved this hotel, when you first arrive it seems like you are in the middle of nowhere, however once you find the layout of Venice the hotel is in a great position - if you don’t mind walking 10mins. Close to water taxis from the airport circa 5mins, train station is approx 10mins walk. Staff are extremely helpful and friendly. Rooms are great, typical Venetian style decor. Warm and cosy. Couple of nice wine bars locally, see picture, and the Prosecco is amazing at circa 4euros a glass. Enjoyed the place and would return.
