Hotels in San PoloThe district of San Polo is one of our favorites, if only because it encompasses so much of what guidebooks like to call "the real Venice." The sestiere faces the Grand Canal like a dog's nose and neck (see photo), with its back to the railroad station and the district of Santa Croce. It includes the Rialto Food Markets, the Frari Church, the Campo San Polo (Venice's second-largest square), and plenty of small neighborhoods where Venetians live, work, and walk their dogs. What San Polo doesn't have is a lot of hotels.
