Staying near St Mark’s Square: what you need to know

What is St Mark’s Square?

It is Venice’s great square, with St Mark’s Basilica, the campanile and the Doge’s Palace by the lagoon. Many gondola rides start from here.

Getting there

From Santa Lucia station and Piazzale Roma, vaporetto line 1 runs along the Grand Canal to St Mark’s. From the airport there are Alilaguna boats.

When rooms are hardest to find

At Carnival, at Easter, from May to September and during the Biennale. Venice charges an access fee to day-trippers, not to guests staying in the city.

Which area to choose

San Marco and Castello, to the east, are the closest areas; Castello is a little quieter and cheaper. Cannaregio, to the north, and Dorsoduro, across the Grand Canal, are about 20 minutes away on foot. In Mestre, on the mainland, prices are much lower.
