I Need Help with a location In Venice?
 
The hotel is Bonvecchiati, located near St Mark's square, will I be centrally located in Venice? If not, could someone tell me what area I need to look for a hotel in?<BR>Itinerary in Venice 15-18 may 03

It's an excellent location. I have stayed there three times. You will find many more good reviews here on this forum.<BR><BR>The only problem with bonvecchiati is that they are aiming to raise their standards, and as a result they are jacking up their rates considerably. Just four years ago, it was about half what it is now.<BR><BR>But not many guests, at least not many from outside Europe, return to Venice a second time - - or so the management there has told me. So, the memory of days when it was a better bargain are generally irrelevant to their clientele.<BR><BR>But what will inevitably come will be resting on their laurels, I fear. Service not keeping up, with the changing wallpaper.<BR><BR>Hopefully, that has not happened yet.<BR><BR>Best wishes,<BR><BR>Rex<BR>

If it is reasonably near to San Marcos than it's got to be "central".<BR><BR>& hey, I've been to Venice TWICE (only place in Italy I've been but...)
