DIRECTIONS
FROM PIAZZALE ROMA AND SANTA LUCIA STATION
Take the ACTV Water-Bus, Line 1 service, to the Sant’Angelo stop.
FROM THE SANT’ANGELO STOP
Once you have alighted from the waterbus, walk straight on until you reach a tall redbrick building, then turn right into Ramo Narisi which is the first narrow street or “calle” after this building.
Turn the corner and continue on until you arrive at a small bridge. At the top of it, turn left and walk along Calle del Pestrin until you see a small square on your right (Campiello Nuovo). The hotel is immediately opposite you.
FROM MARCO POLO AIRPORT
Two public transport companies, ACTV and ATVO, provide a service from the airport to Piazzale Roma; otherwise, you can take a taxi.
ACTV (orange buses) and ATVO (blue buses)
For timetables visit: www.actv.it and www.atvo.it
The best alternative however is to use the ALILAGUNA shuttle waterbus service. This takes an hour to take you directly from the airport to the centre of Venice and costs €15.00.
Timetables are available from www.alilaguna.it. If possible alight at the Sant’Angelo stop.
FROM THE SAN BASILIO CRUISE TERMINAL
From the Cruise Terminal, you can take the Alilaguna shuttle waterbus service (times and ticket prices from www.alilaguna.it), that departs from the Terminal and takes you to Saint Mark’s Square. Once you have alighted you will see the ACTV boarding point from where the Line 1 waterbus service departs. Take this and alight at the Sant’Angelo stop. Follow the earlier directions.
FROM TREVISO’S “SAN GIUSEPPE” AIRPORT
The ATVO bus service operates between the airport and Piazzale Roma in Venice. Services are timed to coincide with flight arrivals and departures. Check times and ticket prices on www.atvo.it.
