Hotels in the Canareggio district of Venice, Italy

Hotel Residenza Cannaregio, Venice

This hotel in Venice (Venezia) is located in the Cannaregio district, one of the six traditional areas or sestieri that make up the city. Cannaregio is close to the town's Jewish Ghetto (the oldest in Europe, and which gave the word to the English language). There are numerous must-sees within walking distance, including the Rialto Bridge (one of the most famous but just one of 150 bridges that criss-cross the canals of Venice), and the Piazza San Marco: home to the sumptuous, gold-clad Basilica di San Marco.

The Hotel Residenza Cannaregio, Venice was originally built as a monastery, but has also been used as an artisan's workshop, and the city's famous gondolas have been built here in the past. The hotel retains much of this historical flavour and charm but also provides all the services a guest would expect at a four-star Venetian hotel. There are babysitting facilities and dry cleaning services. There is a restaurant where guests can dine in the evenings either on the outdoor terrace or on the garden patio inside, and a bar where you can relax with a drink after a long day's sightseeing. And there is a host of other services available from the helpful staff on the hotel's front desk.

Each of the 66 rooms at the Hotel Residenza Cannaregio is decorated in a traditional Venetian style, and all modern conveniences have been included for your comfort. All rooms are fully air-conditioned and boast en-suite facilities including bath, shower and WC. Your room will have a direct-dial telephone and an internet connection so you can keep up with events and deal with your email. There is Sky TV, so you can catch up with world news and sport and enjoy English language programmes, and there is an in-room safe for all of your valuables. This Venice hotel is a great choice for those who want to sample the history and culture of the city in style and comfort.
