Luxurious hotel by St Mark’s Square
Step out of the door of the grand Hotel Royal San Marco and you’ll find yourself just one short footbridge from Venice’s most famous square, Piazza San Marco. In the heart of the city, you’ll be within easy reach of historic sites like the Doge’s Palace and St Mark’s Basilica, and less than a five-minute walk from the Grand Canal, where you can hop on a gondola up to the Rialto Bridge.
If you’re unsure where to start, the hotel’s concierge can suggest interesting itineraries, book guided tours of galleries and museums, or arrange boat trips out to the islands in the lagoon. After a day of shopping and sightseeing, relax in the hotel reading room or treat yourself to a drink in the bar.
The bright and airy rooms are spectacularly furnished in the classic Venetian style, and come with modern comforts, including free wi-fi, air conditioning and television. After a day wandering the cobbled streets, it’s the perfect place to rest your head.

What Royal San Marco has to offer
St Mark’s Basilica
St Mark's Basilica is a golden-domed cathedral dating back to the 11th century. It sits at the east end of the city centre, just a short walk from the hotel and Doge's Palace. Inside, you'll see gold mosaics, great works of Renaissance art from Titian and Tintoretto, and a stunning golden altar decorated with over 2,000 precious stones. There's also a museum with items and treasures from the 13th-century crusades.
Murano
Home to Venice’s famed glass-making industry, the island of Murano is well worth a visit. Learn about the rich history of glass-making in the Museo del Vetro, or take a tour of a glass-blowing factory and watch delicate ornaments being handmade by skilled artisans. The island is a 25-minute journey from Piazza San Marco by water bus, or your concierge can book you onto a tour to make your trip even easier.
Rialto Market
The world-famous Rialto Market is foodie heaven. It runs along the Grand Canal at the northwest tip of the Rialto Bridge, which is only a seven-minute walk from the hotel. A feast for the senses, it has hundreds of stalls selling piles of brightly coloured cherries, peaches, tomatoes, and artichokes. It's the perfect place to pick up supplies if you're planning a picnic. You'll find the best cuts of meats and freshest seafood in Venice here. And don't be afraid to ask for samples – trying before you buy is all part of the fun.
