Location
The Hotel is located in the Sestiere di S. Croce, near the church of S. Simon the Prophet, once famous for wool working and other crafts of great importance for the city's economy, in a strategic and comfortable spot for those arriving from the station or Piazzale Roma, efficiently served by public transportation. Moreover, a charming walk leads to the central St. Mark's square, through narrow alleys and small squares which are not part of the classic route that is normally chosen by tourists.
