B&B Arabesque - A 14th-century palazzo with terrace views of San Marco's bell tower

Located in a fourteenth-century Palazzo Zorzi-Bon in the Castello district, this Venice hotel sits 4 minutes from Rialto Bridge and 5 minutes from St. Mark's Square. B&B Arabesque occupies the first floor, featuring classic-style rooms with parquet floors, free Wi-Fi, and fans. The shared bathrooms come equipped with a bathtub, bidet, and whirlpool foot-bath. Guests enjoy complimentary local cuisine breakfast served daily from 8 AM on the terrace overlooking San Marco's bell tower. The property's amenities include luggage storage, a library, and a first aid kit. The Arabesque positions guests 1 mile from Santa Lucia Train Station, with the 'Rialto' vaporetto stop 10 minutes away by foot. Within 0.5 miles radius, visitors find the Naval History Museum, Doge's Palace, and Church of San Giorgio Maggiore.

Pros

“B&B Arabesque strikes me as a deeply personal Venetian experience. I envision informative breakfasts turning into impromptu travel planning sessions, all happening steps from St. Mark's Square, but on a quiet street. For travelers seeking immersion beyond the typical hotel stay, this B&B, run by its owners, makes a compelling case.”
