AI MORI D'ORIENTE, Venice

Ai Mori D'Oriente - A 4-star canal-view hotel in historic Cannaregio with Moorish-inspired design and American bar

Located in Cannaregio, the largest Venetian sestiere, this 4-star Venice hotel occupies a 15th-century palazzo overlooking Rio della Sensa. The Madonna dell'Orto water bus station stands a 2-minute walk from Ai Mori D'Oriente in the tranquil Venetian Ghetto area. The property features 21 rooms ranging from classic doubles to canal-view suites, each equipped with marble bathrooms, satellite LCD TVs, and minibars. The Oasi d'Oriente American bar serves cocktails in the former Locanda La Pergola, once frequented by Corto Maltese author Hugo Pratt. A daily buffet breakfast is served in an elegant dining room, while drinks can be enjoyed on the south-facing canal-front terrace. The hotel provides Wi-Fi access, climate control, and an elevator to the first floor. The Rialto market, St Mark's Square, and Ca' Vendramin Calergi casino are accessible by foot, while the Murano and Burano ferry dock is nearby.
