The
Alloggi Marinella is on a quiet neighborhood street within a short walk
of the People Mover, airport buses, and taxis in Venice's busy Piazzale Roma.
We think the Alloggi Marinella is a delightful place to stay (see
our review), especially if you book a superior double room with patio like
the one in the photo above.
How to reach Alloggi Marinella from the Piazzale Roma:
Walk toward the tree-lined side of the Piazzale Roma.
Continue through the trees to the water.
Turn right onto the fondamenta or sidewalk
along the canal.
A few meters ahead, you'll see a food kiosk just before the
Tre Ponti (three bridges). Bearing left to stay by the main canal, walk past the
food kiosk to the bridge.
Cross the bridge and walk straight ahead, past the
Hotel
Arlecchino (another hotel that we recommend) and the restaurants along the
canal.
Turn right at the next street, the tree-lined Rio Terà dei Pensieri.
The Alloggi Marinella is just down the street on the left. Look for a yellow
building with an oval hanging sign.
