Convenient when:
 You're willing to pay four-star rates for a 51-room boutique hotel that
faces St. Mark's Basin, directly across a wide pedestrian promenade from
the Zaccaria airport-boat and
vaporetto piers.
 The Savoia & Jolanda is a traditional upscale Venetian hotel where rooms
are likely to have wood-beamed ceilings, Murano glass light fixtures,
and--if you've sprung for a deluxe room or junior suite--panoramic views
of the Isola di San Giorgio Maggiore and the Venetian Lagoon.

In the upper satellite photo, the Savoia & Jolanda
is about halfway between the Doge's Palace (left) and the canal on
the right side of the frame. It's the red building that faces the
second set of waterbus platforms.
-
In the lower close-up image, you can see the Hotel
Savoia & Jolanda behind the words "Sestiere Castello." The hotel has
a large covered restaurant-café on the
promenade. (The five-star Hotel Danieli is immediately to the left
of the Savoia & Jolanda.)
