Established as a hotel 100 years ago, this lovely 15th century palace was renovated with great care in 1996. Venice is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Indeed, it is a world of its own. For centuries, the black gondolas, flat boats propelled by only one long rudder were the most important means of transportation. Nowadays they are a favourite with tourists who try to catch the spirit of this city of trade, of the arts and of immense merchant and political power in its history. Museums, galleries, historical libraries, theatres and opera are so numerous in Venice that it is hard to choose what to see and do in a restricted amount of days. Hotel Giorgione is located in the heart of the old city of Venice; it offers all modern facilities in a romantic, 'old world' atmosphere. Which includes warm attentive service and assistance. Rialto Bridge over the Grand Canal is the hub of the historical centre, and Hotel Giorgione is close to Rialto, St. Mark's Square. ..........
