Santa Croce is one of the smallest sestieres of Venice, and often
gets swallowed up into San Polo in city guides. This is a shame, as
although it lacks attractions as such, it has many narrow backstreets,
with bars and restaurants waiting to be discovered by the more adventurous
visitor.

Getting to the Hotel
The hotel can be easily reached
from S. Lucia Railway station and from the parking areas (Piazzale
Roma and Tronchetto), as is a 10 minute walk from the railway
station. Cross the large white bridge called "Ponte degli
Scalzi" and follow the Canal Grande for about 50 meters.
On your left you will see a street that goes by the Tolentini
Church directly to the Hotel.
