Special care is reserved to the Antigo Trovatoreby a property which has been a hotel for over a century and has always been family managed.Located at less than one hundred meters from the splendid St. Mark's Square, in the heart of Venice, the hotel is easily reached from the centrally located Riva Degli Schiavoni (which offers a number of boat stops for the city water transport system), the street where our alley, Calle delle Rasse, opens out onto. This historic street has been called in this way since Medieval times because here there were many laboratories and shops making and selling cloth in lana rassa (or rascia from Russia), a rough wool which was used to make the covers for the cabins of the famous gondolas.The Hotel is located in an invaluable example of the lesser buildings of Venetian architecture: historic constructions developed in such a way as to best take advantage of the urban space, so precious because conditioned by the surrounding water. Here, the ancient vertical structure, in a tower form, places the guest rooms and the other elements of the hotel in a column, maintaining many elements of a century old tradition, such as the porteghetto (a salon used to access the staircases), the delicate exterior pergoli in wrought iron (with flowered balconies) and the altana, the typical roof-top terrace, constructed in wood, which opens up over the roofs of Venice, used today just as in the past for household use as well as leisure time. Many of the buildings which surround the Antigo Trovatore have been transformed into hotels over time, where numerous visitors, traders and even pilgrims who came to Venice or set sail on their journeys from the bay of nearby St. Mark's headed for the open sea. The hotel offers its guests: - 25 guest rooms with bathroom facilities (bathtub or shower) Guest rooms with a balcony-terrace from where one enjoys the view of the sixteenth century façade of the Doge's Palace The peaceful open terrace decorated as a sunny patio for enjoying pleasant conversation Four-storied with lift Indoor lounge area with television Small pets welcome Internet point
