Hotel Rigel Venezia

The hotel, built in the 1960s, is situated on one of the most important islands of Venice. Its importance and uniqueness are due to the fact that it is the only hotel facing the Adriatic Sea on one side and on the other the basin of St. Marks, just before the historic Square of St. Marks, the centre of the ancient Republic of Venice. Another characteristic that makes it unique, compared with all other islands of the lagoon, is the possibility of reaching it by car, avoiding problems and costs of car parking either in Mestre (mainland) or at the Tronchetto (car park). The hotel, located at Via Enrico Dandolo 13 on the lido, is situated only 5 minutes from the public boat services, which run every 10 minutes during the day and every half hour during the night, a 12 to 15 minute-ride connecting the lido with St. Marks. The hotel has 42 rooms on 3 floors connected by lift. Nearly all rooms have classical-style furnishings and are luminous, some with a small balcony and all with a bathroom, shower, air conditioning and a telephone with direct outside line, as well as a satellite TV and wireless Internet access.
