TravPa

Where to stay in Venice

San Marco for the main sights, Cannaregio for a local feel and value, Dorsoduro for museums and quiet canals. Staying on the islands beats Mestre on the mainland.

The best areas

San Marco

Steps from St. Mark's Square and the Rialto. Pricier, and crowded by day.

Hotels in San Marco

Cannaregio

Where many Venetians live: canalside bars, the old Jewish Ghetto and better value.

Hotels in Cannaregio

Dorsoduro

Museums, the Zattere waterfront and quiet canals, across the Accademia Bridge.

Castello

Calm streets east of St. Mark's, with the Biennale gardens at the far end.
