4-star hotel in a quiet Venetian square, housed in a former convent with private water taxi access
Location
Hotel Santa Marina sits on Campo Santa Marina, a quiet square less than a 10-minute walk from St. Mark's Square and the Rialto Bridge. The hotel's private water landing allows water taxis to drop guests directly at the back door, avoiding bridges and stairs. Nearby attractions include the Chiesa di Santa Maria dei Miracoli and a range of local dining options.
Rooms
The hotel offers diverse room choices, from Superior Double Rooms to Suites, each featuring marble floors and Murano glass furnishings. Some rooms have canal views, while others overlook the quiet square. The classical decor is paired with contemporary amenities such as air conditioning and a safe.
Dining
A complimentary buffet breakfast is served on the terrace overlooking Santa Marina Square during warm months, with options including pancakes, scrambled eggs, and a selection of pastries. Prosecco is available for guests who wish to start the day that way. The hotel also has a coffee house on site and offers special diet menus upon request.
Services
The 24-hour front desk provides concierge service, luggage storage, and private check-in/check-out. Guests can request personalized local recommendations and a city map. Safety deposit boxes, a bar, and a designated smoking area are available on the premises.
Family-friendly
The hotel is family-friendly, with facilities for disabled guests including an elevator and grab rails in bathrooms. Rooms can accommodate families, and the quiet square offers a safe environment. Pets are allowed on request, and the hotel provides a baggage storage service for early arrivals.

“Hotel Santa Marina, a former convent, now offers a unique sense of Venetian charm, notably its private water taxi pier-a real advantage. I especially appreciate its prime location near St. Mark's Square and Rialto Bridge, yet set back in a quiet square. Its blend of classic and contemporary décor makes it a smart choice.”
