The charming 3-star Taverna San Lio Venice hotel provides proximity to the historic Bridge of Sighs, which is situated just 450 metres away. Featuring a restaurant and a barber shop, this Venice guest house is located only 6 minutes on foot from Ponte di Rialto Bridge.

Location

The hotel is nestled in the St. Pancras district, just near the street food restaurant Dal Moro's Fresh Pasta to Go. The Taverna San Lio Venice is also around 800 metres from Royal Gardens of Venice and near bars and restaurants.

Nature lovers will appreciate the proximity to bacino Orseolo, which is about a 5-minute drive away. The lively Cannaregio is merely 1.4 km away, and Venezia Santa Lucia train station is situated merely 1.8 km from the accommodation.

The rooms at the Taverna San Lio are fitted with an air conditioner as well as a mini-fridge-bar and coffee/tea making machines. Offering such amenities as a hair dryer and bath sheets, the bathrooms also include a bidet, a separate toilet, and a shower. Guests can enjoy views of the city.

Eat & Drink

Breakfast is served every morning with fresh fruits and fresh pastries. The Taverna San Lio Venice has an à la carte restaurant, serving a range of Italian dishes. Drinks are available at the lounge bar.

“This tavern-anchored hotel offers a genuine slice of Venice, placing you steps from the Rialto Bridge. I found its heart lies in authentic Italian dining, enhanced by its lively, central atmosphere. Spacious, air-conditioned rooms make it family-friendly, while guided tours promise deeper cultural immersion. In my opinion, it's an appealing base for exploring the city.”
