Historic Venetian Stay

Hotel Scandinavia - Relais is housed in a 14th-century building in Venice's Castello district, a 5-minute walk from Piazza San Marco. The property features 18th-century Venetian decor, with Murano glass chandeliers and period furniture. Rooms include air conditioning, minibars, safes, and flat-screen TVs. Some rooms overlook Campo Santa Maria Formosa.

Buffet Breakfast Included

A continental breakfast buffet is served daily from 7:00 AM to 10:00 AM, offering pastries, cereals, yogurt, cold cuts, eggs, and gluten-free options. Coffee, tea, and fruit juices are available.

Central Venice Location

The hotel is steps from Rialto Bridge and a short walk from St. Mark's Basilica and Doge's Palace. Nearby vaporetto stops provide access to Murano, Burano, and the Lido, where the Venice Film Festival takes place annually. Private water taxis can dock directly at the hotel.

Multilingual Staff Assistance

The front desk operates 24/7 with multilingual staff. Luggage storage and free Wi-Fi are available. Small pets are permitted upon request.

Transportation & Accessibility

From Marco Polo Airport, take the Alilaguna waterbus to San Zaccaria (1 hour) or a water taxi (approx. €120). From Piazzale Roma, vaporetto lines 1 or 2 reach Rialto in 10 minutes. The hotel is a 5-minute walk from the Rialto stop.

“Staying here means stepping into a piece of Venice's history, as the building dates back to the 14th century. Its location on a quiet piazza provides an authentic Venetian experience, while still being mere steps from major attractions like St. Mark's Square. The family-run service adds a personal touch, making it a welcoming base for exploring the city.”
