Ca′ San Giorgio Venice
Venezia (VE)
Cà San Giorgio is a supurb gothic style dwelling once used as a convent and restored to the finest detail to recreate an elegant and timeless residence. Situated in the heart of the historic centre of Venice on the evocative Salizada del Fontego dei Turchi, Cà San Giorgio fronts on to a 13th century "Venetian/Bizantino" style Palace. Used as a goods warehouse by the Turkish merchants during the XVII century, it is now home to the well known Museo Civico di Storia Naturale (Civic Museum of Natural History).
Cà San Giorgio is the ideal place to immerse yourself in the magical atmosphere of Venice. It is found along the route between the Stazione Ferroviaria di Santa Lucia (Railway station) and Piazza San Marco, passing the Rialto bridge along the way.
On the doorstep of the hotel you will find the gondola-traghetto of San Marcuola which crosses the Grande Canal, putting you on the Cannaregio bank, an area of Venice rich in typical restaurants and "bacari" and where there is the possibility to challenge the prestigious Municiple Casino of Venice. Whilst in the Cannaregio zone a visit to the Cà D'Oro (House of Gold) is unmissable. This XV century palace represents the single most important example of Gothic Venice and is given its name because of the many elements on the canal facing, front side that were decorated in gold.
