The city of
Venice, Italy is simply stunning and completely
unique. Founded more than 1,500 years ago on 117
different islands, Venice is linked by a series of
over 150 canals, 400 bridges and many ancient
pavements. The historic city centre of Venice is
divided into six quarters (sestieri) - Cannaregio,
Castello, Dorsoduro, San Marco, San Polo and Santa
Croce. All buildings in Venice are supported on
slender oak and pine piles (posts) which are driven
deep into the ground to create a solid foundation.
As the soil is waterlogged, with no free oxygen, the
piles remain strong and do not decay.
The Royal San Marco hotel is located
in the prestigious position right in the centre of
town, in San Marco Square. Here you will be able to
enjoy the outdoor cafes playing piano music, the
Saint Mark’s Basilica, the Clock Tower and all the
people happily milling around one of the most
visited Squares in the world.
The hotel offers traditional Venetian style
decorated rooms with all the modern amenities
necessary for vacationing in Venice. The staff is
friendly and available for any information to help
you make your way around the city. It is possible
for them to organise an excursion to the famous
glass blowing island of Murano.
