Walking directions to Hotel Lisbona (with map)

From: Venice Hotel Directions

The 15-room, three-star Hotel Lisbona is several minutes on foot from the Piazza San Marco, and it's easy to reach from the San Marco Giardinetti stop of Alilaguna's Blue and Orange airport-boat lines. (The same boat station is used by ACTV water buses or vaporetti).

How to reach the Hotel Lisbona from the Alilaguna airport-boat pier at San Marco Giardinetti:

1. As you leave the boat station, turn left and cross a small stone bridge.

2. Continue a few meters to the Calle Vallaresso and turn right.

3. Walk straight ahead down the Calle Vallaresso, past Harry's Bar and a row of designer shops.

4. At the first corner, turn left into the Salizzada San Moisè.

5. Walk to the narrow canal alongside the Hotel Bauer, where you'll see gondolas on your left and a small bridge just ahead.

6. Cross the bridge. On your left, you'll see a campiello or small square and the Hotel Violino d'Oro.

7. Look for an archway just after the gondoliers' booth. The Lisbona's entrance is through the archway, at the end of a short passage.)
