Hustle and bustle or tranquility? With a hotel in Castello, you'll find both. Venice's largest district stretches from the very east to St. Mark's Square. Away from the boulevard Riva degli Schiavoni with its restaurants, snack bars and cafés, you'll find peace and authentic flair. Tiny canals crisscross the winding residential quarters, along with squares with bakeries and bookstores. Magnificent palazzi, churches and monasteries complete the ambience. In the Biennale Gardens are the pavilions from all over the world, where the annual exhibitions take place.
