Category:
Three-star hotel.
Location: On the Campo San Simeon
Grande, a few minutes on foot from the railroad station and the Piazzale
Roma. Convenient when:
 You
want a quiet, romantic, moderately-priced hotel on a pretty little
campo away from the hustle and bustle of the tourist areas, but
you don't want to walk very far from the
train station, the
airport bus, or
transportation to the cruise port.
 The
Ai Due Fanali is on the same square as two four-star boutique hotels,
the Hotel Canal Grande and the
Ca' Nigra Lagoon Resort. At
night, you'll enjoy going outside the hotel and walking to the edge of
the Grand Canal, where you can sit on a park bench and watch the passing
boat traffic. And in the morning, you can enjoy breakfast in the hotel's
top-floor breakfast room or (in good weather) on the roof terrace.

Aerial photos:
-
The top photo shows the train station on the left,
the Scalzi Bridge over
the Grand Canal, and (toward the right) the Campo San Simeon Grande,
which opens onto the Grand Canal between various palazzi
and other buildings.
-
In the second photo, you can see the Hotel Ai Due
Fanali in the right-hand corner of the Campo San Simeon Profeta
(another name for the Campo San Simeon Grande). The hotel entrance
is under the awnings, and many guest rooms are in the adjoining
building that connects with the church tower.
