XIV century palace located on the Grand Canal nearby the Rialto Bridge. Breakfast room on the Grand Canal, American bar, private terrace with access for water-taxi, courtyard. Located on the Grand Canal in the very heart of Venice, 5 minutes walking from the Rialto Bridge and at 15 minutes from St. Mark's Square, the San Cassiano is the first hotel in Venice which has been named Residenza d'Epoca from a special government commission of Fine Arts; this important grading was achieved thanks to its historical and artistic values; in particular it was the house-studio of Giacomo Favretto, the last XIX century venetian painter. Situated in a quiet area where you can enjoy the real Venice off the main tourist tracks, this hotel is still only a short stroll from the Rialto Bridge and its colourful markets. Its wonderful position on the Grand Canal, in front of the most famous Ca' d'Oro, gives our guests the opportunity to see the real life of the main 'water-street' of Venice, even sitting on our private terrace, sipping their favourite drinks.[less]
