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 (Hotel sites are often years out of date.)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

Hotel Bucintoro
Directions and Booking Links
Powered by iMapBuilder
ABOVE: The
icons mark the Hotel Bucintoro and other hotels near the Alilaguna stop at
Arsenale (blue airplane icon).
The four-star
Hotel
Bucintoro occupies a spectacular setting on Venice's waterfront, away from
the worst of San Marco's high-season crowds but within an easy walk of the
Doge's Palace, St. Mark's Basilica, and other tourist landmarks. It faces
a small square next to the Naval History Museum where megayachts, hotel barges,
and other large boats are often moored.
How to reach the Bucintoro from the Arsenale
airport-boat stop:
-
As you leave the boat pier, turn right and walk to the
stone bridge.
-
Cross the bridge.
-
The Hotel Bucintoro will be straight ahead of you,
immediately after the Museo Storico Navale.
From the Marittima cruise terminals:
-
Take the Alilaguna Blue Line airport boat from the cruise
basin to Arsenale. (The price will be about half of the airport fare.)
-
Follow the directions above.
From the San Basilio cruise pier:
-
Leave the terminal by the main doors and walk to the wooden
bridge.
-
Cross the bridge and walk a short distance to the vaporetto
station.
-
Take the No. 2 vaporetto (water bus) in the direction of San
Zaccaria.
-
Get off at the Zaccaria stop, turn right, and walk along the
waterfront until you reach the Hotel Bucintoro. You'll need to cross three
bridges, but otherwise the walk is over level pavement.
