The Centauro Hotel is in an extremely strategic position: Right in the historic center, a couple of steps from the Great La Fenice Theatre and 5 minutes on foot from St. Mark's Square, where you can admire the architectural masterpieces like the Ducal Palace and St. Mark's Church.
This prestigious three star hotel in Venice is the ideal base from which to visit the city: It will take you only a few minutes to reach all the main places of artistic and cultural interest... the Rialto Bridge, one of the symbols of Venice, the Galleria dell'Accademia, where the works of the famous Venetian painters of the 1700s are kept, Palazzo Grassi, where exhibitions of an international level are periodically organized. Not far from the Hotel there is also the prestigious Calle Larga XXII March and the ancient Mercerie: a real paradise for shopping lovers who will find the most luxurious names of Italian and international fashion design.
The Hotel's guests also have the good luck to stay right in front of one of the most fascinating sights of Venice: the Scala Contarini del Bovolo, an architectural masterpiece, between Gothic and Renaissance, composed of a cylindrical tower with open arches and a series of lodges one above the other with a spiral staircase (in Venetian dialect "bovolo") winding up to reach the sky.
