| Hotel Description: | The Hotel Gabrielli Sandwirth is just a few steps from San Marco Square, along Riva degli Schiavoni.
In the hotel's immediate vicinity you will find the entrance to Arsenale, the Biennale and the Naval Museum.
The interiors, spacious and elegant, have period furnishings and exquisite Murano glass, in an ambiance typical of the great Venetian residences.
Guests from all over the world have stayed here, including Franz Kafka.
Polichrome marble adorns the walls and floors of the halls and bar where you can sip not only the typical 'Spritz' but specialty cocktails like the Gabrielli, the Bellini or the Rossini.
On summer days the courtyard in flower is the ideal place to have breakfast or dine by candlelight. In another courtyard is a beautiful well, probably from the late Byzantine era. On the hotel's terrace, from a comfortable chaise longue, you can enjoy a spectacular view of the lagoon.
But the real jewel of the Hotel Gabrielli Sandwirth is its enchanting garden populated by palms, roses, wisteria pergolas, aquatic plants in antique stone basins, all dominated by two majestic cedars of Lebanon. The hotel also provides meeting rooms (max 70 people) and is equipped with a water entrance. | | Room Information: | Double Room Superior double room facing the lagoon Number of Beds:1 |
| | Getting There: |
From the Santa Lucia train station and from Piazzale Roma:
By private water taxi to the hotel (Rio Ca' di Dio). We recommend you settle the price before embarking and check that the taxi is authorized (you can tell by the yellow stripe and license number painted on the sides of the boat).
By VAPORETTO (public transportation system) line 1 (45 minute trip) recommended if you want to enjoy the beauty of the Grand Canal. For a faster route take line 41 going toward Giudecca (30 minute trip). For both routes, the stop is Arsenale which is located no more than 150 meters from the hotel.
From the Arsenale landing continue to the left, crossing the Ponte Ca' di Dio.
