| Ca' Formenta Hotel *** - Venice
(Italy) |
 |
| |
Ca' Formenta Hotel is in Via Garibaldi, it can claim to be the heart
Venetian life, unlike the area around St. Mark’s Square it
has not yet been invaded by mass tourists. The many coffee houses
and famous restaurants of the area are crowded mainly with venetians
who come here to escape the hustle and bustle of the plaza, after
all it is only ten minutes away.
Nearby one can see the “Padiglioni” of the International
Biennal Exhibition of Modern Art, a must for art lovers.
In conclusion, here is a corner of Venice, well known to the Venetinas,
still to be discovered by many tourists but ensuring your visitors
won’t leave disappointed.

| Getting to the Hotel |
|
|
The hotel Cà Formenta is
found at one end of Via Garibaldi and is easily reached from
Marco Polo airport and Santa Lucia Railway Station. Because
there is a private wharf we suggest, for convenience, to come
to the hotel by motorboat taxi, it is slightly more expensive
(around € 80.00 from the airport and around € 45.00
from the station), but it is certainly the more scenic and convenient
way to arrive.
Alternatively, there is public transport from the
airport, the shuttle “Alilaguna” leaves
every hour from 0800am to midnight. The nearest stop to the
hotel is “Arsenal” two bridge stop the right and
you have arrived. From the Station Santa Lucia
(and from the Piazzale Roma for those arriving by car) we advise
taking the line ACTV n° 51 or n° 61. Get off at the
Garden, pass the first bridge on the left, continue along “Riva
dei Sette Martiri” up to the hotel. Another way is to
take the line ACTV n° 1 and follow the Grand Canal, a very
beautiful, romantic journey of about 45 minutes to the wharf
“Arsenal” just after St. Mark’s Square, two
bridges to the right and one is at the hotel!
