Hotel Ca' Arco Antico, Venice

Conveniently situated just a short walk from the Grand Canal and in particular the Rialto Bridge, this small Venice hotel combines traditional charm and modern amenities and service to make a perfect base from which to explore the city, either on foot or by the many forms of water transport.

Venice's Hotel Ca' Arco Antico offers eight comfortable rooms, each furnished in traditional Venetian period style and with its own private bathroom, heating and air conditioning, satellite TV, direct-dial phone, internet access, hairdryer, safe and minibar. Many of the rooms are suitable for disabled guests. Breakfast is served in a stylish dining room or, if you prefer, in your room. Friendly, attentive staff will be happy to recommend local restaurants and bars. They also hold evening gatherings at which visitors can learn where they can discover some unique sightseeing attractions that do not appear on the usual tourist itineraries - for example, ancient inns and taverns.

The hotel offers a selection of concierge services including 24-hour reception desk, express checkout and safety deposit boxes. Babysitting services can also be arranged. A distinctive feature of this charming Venice accommodation is its beautiful Murano-glass windows, and you may be tempted to take a trip out to the "glass island" of Murano yourself - it's just a 10-minute boat ride away from the centre of Venice. Glass-making in Murano dates back to the 13th century, and it's worth stopping off at the Museo Vetrario (Glass Museum) to learn the history of this fascinating process.
