La Locandiera is housed in a small 17th century palace on Campo San Giovanni Novo, a peaceful and typically Venetian Square, few minutes away from St. Mark?s Square. Opened in June 2004, and named after Carlo Goldoni's masterpiece, the palace has been completely restored and refurbished. Elegantly furnished following the traditional classical Venetian style, all the rooms are equipped with the most modern comforts and facilities. The hotel is in the heart of the hystoric and artistic area of Venice, only 100 meters from the Basilica and Palazzo Ducale. The majority of Venice's main monuments, like Rialto Bridge, the Church of SS. Giovanni e Paolo and Saint Zaccaria, can be reached in a 10 minute?s walk. The contemporary art expositions of Palazzo Grassi and Peggy Guggenheim Collection are also within walking distance.
