Walking directions to Hotel Principe (with map)
Booking.com
The four-star
Hotel
Principe has a deceptive appearance if you approach on foot. On the entrance
side, you'd never guess that the hotel occupies a series of historic buildings
that face the Grand Canal, with many rooms and a restaurant terrace overlooking the
water.
How to reach the Hotel Principe from Santa Lucia Railroad
Station:
- Leave the station by the marble steps outside the main doors, or by the easy-to-miss
(and conveniently stair-free)
side exit if you have rolling luggage, a stroller, or a wheelchair.
-
When you reach the wide fondamenta or pavement in
front of the station, turn left.
-
Walk past the Scalzi Church and the Scalzi Bridge toward the
Lista di Spagna (a busy pedestrian thoroughfare).
-
Continue down the Lista di Spagna for a short distance. The
Hotel Principe's entrance is less than a block beyond the Scalzi Bridge, on
the right side of the street.
From the Piazzale Roma:
-
Look for the Calatrava Bridge (a.k.a. the Ponte
della Costituzione). It's the large modern bridge at the northeast corner of
the square, next to the Hotel Santa Chiara.
-
Cross the bridge and continue straight ahead, past the large
building on your left, to the train station.
-
From the station, follow the directions above.
From the Marittima cruise terminals:
-
Take a shuttle bus, a taxi, or the
People Mover to the
Piazzale Roma.
-
Follow the directions above.
