About these Venice hotel pages:
We've included customized Google maps that you can zoom, rotate, or drag for better views.
If you see a conflict between our directions and a hotel's, rely on ours. (Hotel sites are often years out of date.) Ditto for maps: Our icons are hand-placed for accuracy, while GPS-based labels can be off by a street or more.
Finally, if you don't know the city's
layout, see our Venice Orientation Map

Hotel Antiche Figure
Directions and Booking Links
Powered by iMapBuilder
ABOVE: The
icons mark the Hotel Antiche Figure and other hotels near Santa Lucia Railroad
Station and the Piazzale Roma.
The
Hotel Antiche Figure is one of the top three-star hotels near Santa Lucia
Railroad Station. It faces the Grand Canal and the station, and it's a great
choice if you don't mind hauling your bag over the Scalzi Bridge.
How to reach the Hotel Antiche Figure from the train
station:
-
Leave the station by main doors--or by
the easy-to-miss
side exit near Track 1, which will let you roll your suitcase down a
gentle incline instead of bumping it down a marble staircase.
-
Turn left and walk a short distance to the Scalzi Bridge,
which crosses the Grand Canal.
-
Go over the bridge and turn right onto the fondamenta
or waterfront sidewalk.
-
Walk past the domed church. The Hotel Antiche Figure is just
beyond.
From airport buses and taxis in the
Piazzale Roma:
(Scroll the map up and to the right to see the
Piazzale Roma.)
-
Walk to the tree-lined side of the Piazzale Roma where a
red-and-white crosswalk from the central bus area feeds into a sidewalk
through the trees.
-
Go through the trees, past the vendor stands, to a low stone
bridge.
-
Cross the bridge. On the other side of the canal, turn left
and walk along the fondamenta or sidewalk by the park.
-
When you reach the corner, continue around to the right.
-
Beyond the park, you'll reach a second small bridge. Cross
it.
-
Walk along the water past the Hotel Airone and the Carlton
on the Grand Canal to the Hotel Antiche Figure.
From the Marittima cruise terminals:
-
Take a free shuttle bus (if available), a taxi, or the
People Mover elevated
tramway to the Piazzale Roma. (The People Mover's glass-enclosed station is
just beyond the port gates.)
-
Follow our directions from Piazzale Roma.
