The Hotel is a lovely, old-fashioned hotel in Venice. The home, which was built in the 18th century and has several little private boats moored close by, gives access on to a romantic canal with many individual boats. Rezzonico House is a peaceful retreat with excellent facilities that contains only six rooms with own bathrooms; all of them have spectacular sights, including one on the canal and another on the internal garden where breakfast is served when the weather permits.

Our guest rooms contain marble bathrooms, high-quality matresses, and elegant Venetian or parquet floorsing. Plus, we’re located near many must-see’s for tourists like the National Gallery of Accademia and Scuola dei Carmini where you can view some beautiful Tiepolo frescoes. We hope to provide our customers with a wonderful and memorable experience during their stay here in Venice.

Campo Santa Margherita is a popular area for outdoor dining and nightlife, as well as being the home of several seafood restaurants and bars. The lively of Campo Santa Margherita, probably the finest nightlife in Venice, is located near by. From here, S. Mark’s Square may be reached in 15 minutes on foot, as well as the railway station. Public boat stops are available at the Zattere (500 meters distant), from where it is possible to explore Venice by water.

Rooms

Cà rezzonico is a small hotel with only six rooms, all of which are equipped in an antique and traditional style with hardwood furnishings. The locanda is located in front of a tiny canal or inner garden. All rooms feature Venetian flooring or parquet floorsing, and breakfast may be eaten outdoors during nice weather conditions. You’ll get peacefulness here!

Location

The hotel is in the Dorsoduro area, right by the Zattere. If you’re looking for a scenic and romantic walk, this is one of the best places in Venice. Nearby Casa Rezzonico, you can go into Scuola Grande dei Carmini to see Tipeolo’s frescoes or check out National Gallery of Accademia, Scuola Grande di San Rocco or Guggenheim Museum for modern art–all within a 10 minute walk.

If you’re someone who prefers to stay up a bit later, Campo Santa Margherita is the best place in Venice for drinks and relaxation. It’s conveniently located only four minutes from here. Additionally, there are public boat stops along Grand Canal which is only 500 meters away from Casa Rezzonico.

The hotel Cà Formenta, which was completely rebuilt from 2002 to 2003 in the heart of Venetian activity, is located at the start of Via Garibaldi in a lively district. According to Tassini in his “Venetian Curiosity,” the Building’s origin dates back to 1400 and that it also had a “Grande Cancelliere della Serenissima” around 1580.

The palazzetto, which was originally covered with a coat of arms depicting three ears of corn, the emblem of the Formenti family, is still used as our logo. During restoration, the management at Panorama Hotel on the Lido was inspired by it and also upgraded it to four-star quality. The restoration project was carried out by G.R. Pantha in Padua architect. They’ve tried to keep it Venetian while adding elegant furniture to it.

For your comfort and convenience, our rooms come with air conditioning (for Summer or Winter), satellite color television, direct telephone connection for personal computers, minibar, personal safe and hair dryer.

The hotel has an elevator for each floor and all public areas are air conditioned. Some rooms havea view of the lagoon. The hotel’s private wharf on the Rio della Tana is very useful for motorboat taxis; it is especially convenient since there are no other hotels with similar facilities in Barile.

Rooms

Every room in the building is fitted with its own air conditioner, direct phone connection for PCs and laptops, minibar, personal safe, and hairdryer. Each floor can be accessed by lift. Many rooms also offer stunning views of the lagoon. Our rooms come in different sizes but they allensure a high level of comfort; some have marble floors and either showers or bathtubs (or both).

For larger families, we also have an apartment with two interconnecting rooms, both equipped with their own bathroom and a lagoon view. If you’re ever feeling lost or needing suggestions during your visit to our lovely city, our Concierge will be more than happy to help you out with anything you need and even provide you with maps. He can recommend restaurants for romantic dates or supper, get tickets for classical music concerts happening soon, suggest excursions to the islands of the Lagoon–anything! Basically, we want your stay here in Venice be as relaxing and unforgettable as possible.

Location

The hotel Cà Formenta is at the end of Via Garibaldi, and it is accessible from both Marco Polo Airport and Santa Lucia Railway Station. Because we have our own dock, we prefer visitors to arrive by motorboat taxi since it is a little more expensive (about € 80.00 from the airport and € 45.00 from the station), but it is unquestionably the more picturesque and convenient option. Alternatively, you may take public transportation to the airport; every hour on the hour, “Alilaguna” departs.

Arsenale, the closest stop to our hotel, is only two bridges away. If you’re arriving from Santa Lucia Train Station or Piazzale Roma on line 51 or 61 of ACTV, get off at Giardini pier and walk across the first bridge on your left. Continue down Riva dei Sette Martiri past the hotel until you reach it by taking ACTV line 1 for a 45-minute trip along the Grand Canal straight to Arsenale (after St. Mark’s Square). Our Stop is immediately after the two bridges!

If you’re looking for an authentic experience away from selfie-stick yielding tourists, head on over to Via Garibaldi! As the heart of Venetian life, Via Garibaldi has not yet been overrun by tourists like many other areas around St. Mark’s Square. The coffee houses and famous restaurants here are mostly populated by locals who come to escape the tourist traps nearby. Just ten minutes away from all the craziness, one can find tranquility and art at the “Padiglioni” of the International Biennale Exhibition of Modern Art – a must for any art lover visiting Venice.

Saint Mark’s Basilica: The elegant Venetian church with five domes, which resembles the ancient church of Costantinopolis. It was restored during the early centuries of the previous millennium, especially in the thirteenth century, when Venice dominated Mediterranean culture and economy. The temple, built to symbolize Serenissima’s might, is externally decorated with marble, mosaics, and bas-reliefs: all carved from valuable materials came from Ravenna, Bisanzio, and Aquileia. The church has a Greek cross layout with dome-supported columns inside.

Saint Pietro’s Basilica: Saint Mark’s Basilic was the cathedral of Venice until 1807, when it become the religious center of the city. San Pietro is a seventh century BC building that was rebuilt and dedicated to Saint Peter by Bishop Magno. The original building can be seen today; however, only part if it is completed due to a remodeling project based on a design by Palladio.

The 8th of January is still a public holiday in Venice, where it is known as the Malaria Day. It was originally designated to commemorate the end of the epidemic in 1630. Antonio Bellucci painted San Lorenzo implorando l’aiuto di Dio per la liberazione di Venezia dalla peste del 1447 at the end of 1600 to commemorate all of the plague epidemics that have thrown Venice and Europe into chaos.

Saint Giorgio’s School: The School was called by the Dalmatian community, who became a corporation in 1451 and were under saints George, Jerome, and Tryphon’s protection.

This school, which was founded in 1451 and is evidence of the Dalmatian (Schiavoni) community’s presence at the time, might not exist today if it weren’t for Jerusalem’s patriarch giving a relic of Saint George to the commander of the Venetian fleet in 1502. Carpaccio was asked to make paintings for saints Agostino, Matteo and Giorgio while he attending the school. Unfortunately, the school – like many others at that time — was shut down because of Napoleon’s rule.

Between magic and reality, you’ll find a lovely stay in Venice’s “calli,” “campi,” and “rii” in this fantastic world.

Saint Mark’s Basilica: The breathtaking Venetian church, adorned with five stately domes, looks strikingly similar to the ancient Constantinian church. It was restored in early centuries of the previous millennium–during Venice’s Golden Age when it held powerful sway over Mediterranean culture and economy. The exterior of this temple, symbolic of Serenissima domination, boasts majestic marble carvings, mosaics bas-reliefs–all made from rare materials sourced in Ravenna Bisanzio and Aquileia. Inside you’ll find a Greek cross layout along with columns that support the dome structure.

SCUOLA GRANDE DI S. ROCCO: Scarpagnino and Bon constructed this university in 1515, and it became renowned thanks to Tintoretto’s paintings. He worked here for almost two decades, painting numerous works that are now important examples of Venetian painting during the Renaissance and Mannerist periods. Giorgione, Tiziano, and Tiepolo also left their pieces here.

Guggenheim Museum: The final section of Gran Canal, which included the magnificent Palazzo Labia and other Baroque edifices, was constructed in the 18th century. Perhaps one of the goals of its initial owner was to create it in order to fulfill one of these objectives. A garden rather than a ground floor with white Istrian stone known as “Pietra d’Istria” is located behind the rear side of the structure. Peggy Guggenheim acquired the building and quickly became one of the most prominent locations for contemporary art by exhibiting works by Kandinsky, Pollock, Ernst, Chagall, Dalì, and others.
