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 (Hotel sites are often years out of date.)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
before booking.

Best Western Hotel Olimpia
Directions and Booking Links

Powered by iMapBuilder
ABOVE: The
icons mark hotels near the Piazzale Roma, including the Best Western Hotel
Olimpia below the square.

The three-star
Best Western Hotel Olimpia occupies
several historic buildings with a shared private garden next to the Rio delle Burchielle, a canal that
isolates its quiet Santa Croce neighborhood from the hustle and bustle of the
Piazzale Roma. It's a convenient hotel if you're arriving or departing by plane,
bus, or cruise ship.
How to reach the Best Western Hotel Olimpia from the
Piazzale Roma:
-
Walk toward the tree-lined side of the Piazzale Roma.
Continue through the trees to the water.
-
Turn right onto the fondamenta or sidewalk
along the canal.
-
A few meters ahead, you'll see a food kiosk just before the
Tre Ponti (three bridges). Bearing left to stay by the main canal, walk past the
food kiosk to the bridge.
-
Cross the bridge and immediately turn right. Walk past the
Hotel
Arlecchino (a sister hotel that we also recommend).
- The Best Western Hotel Olimpia is just beyond the
tiny cross street by the Hotel Arlecchino's entrance.
From the railroad station:
-
As you leave the train station, turn right and follow the
crowd toward the modern Calatrava Bridge.
-
Cross the Calatrava Bridge (officially named the "Ponte
della Costituzione") to the Piazzale Roma, then follow the directions above.
From the Marittima cruise terminals:
-
Take the People Mover elevated tramway to the Piazzale Roma.
-
Once you're in the Piazzale Roma, follow the directions
above.
