“In my opinion, its central location provides immediate access to the heart of Venice, including St. Mark's Square and the Rialto Bridge. I appreciate the Murano glass chandeliers and baroque décor which are reminiscent of Venice's rich history. I think that the combination of comfortable accommodations and proximity to major attractions makes it a practical choice.”
