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 (Hotel sites are often years out of date.)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

 The
Best Western Premier Hotel Sant'Elena is in a quiet
residential neighborhood near the eastern tip of Venice's historic center. It's
a 20- to 30-minute walk along the waterfront from the Piazza San Marco. The
location may feel isolated in the colder months, but in summer, it offers quick
access to Venice's Lido beach resort, which is only one vaporetto stop
away from the hotel.
How to reach the Hotel Sant'Elena from the Arsenale
airport-boat stop:
-
As you leave the boat pier, turn right and walk along the
waterfront.
-
Cross the footbridge and keep walking past the Museo Storico
Navale (Naval Museum) and the Hotel Bucintoro.
-
When you see a street (the Via Garibaldi) angling inland,
bear right and continue along the water on the Riva dei Sette Martiri.
-
Continue walking past the Biennale grounds and the Giardini
Publici (Public Gardens).
-
At the end of the park, follow the pavement's curve to
a footbridge over another canal. Cross the bridge and head back to the
waterfront.
-
 Keep walking until you reach the Sant'Elena vaporetto stop
(see map above). Turn left into the park.
-
Walk through the strip of park, and continue straight
ahead to the residential section of Sant'Elena. Turn right, walk to the next
corner, and turn left.
-
The Best Western Premier Hotel Sant'Elena is a large
building of yellow stucco and brick, and it's just inland from the park on
the Calle Buccari. (Zoom in on the map above for a closer view.)
From the Lido di Venezia:
-
Take the No. 1 vaporetto one stop to Sant'Elena, then head
inland and follow directions 7 and 8 above.
