The Arco Antico Guest House is set on the restored main floor of a Venetian palazzo. A typical Venetian courtyard offering a small oasis of peace and tranquillity. Just a few steps away from the Grand Canal and from the Rialto Bridge. Boasting a traditional Venezian decor created by Murano glass masters blended with many a modern twist. A delicious breakfast is served every morning in either your bedroom or in the spacious dining hall. Each room is named after a famous historical personality and evokes in its style and interior furnishings the atmosphere of a period residence. All rooms include private bathrooms, heating and air-conditioning, hair-dryers, satellite TVs, direct-line telephones, Internet connections, safes and mini-bars.

Definitely ask at the tourist information to mark where this hotel is on a map for you as we tried lots of streets with the same name and this one isn't named on the main tourist maps. A lovely hotel, room had aircon and a view of the grand canal. Very friendly service, allowed us to leave our bags during the day after checking out.

A great place, though difficult to find at first (but there are signs on the street which are difficult to notice unless you know they are there).

Directions from Vaparetto to Hotel are not the clearest, there are several 'Calle del Fornos' in Venice - and we found a few of them. Probably best just to ask people and persevere with the maps (smaller streets tend to be missed off most maps I saw!) or if you prefer an easy ride book a water taxi from Piazzale Roma/train station or the airport, as there is a jetty which leads right up to the front door (although at a guess you won't get much change out of 30-40 euros). Otherwise a very friendly hotel/guesthouse which is a peaceful retreat from the bustle of Rialto etc. Try and get a room overlooking the courtyard/Grand Canal (we stayed in the Tiziano room and this did). Continental breakfast 8-10am with fortifying cups of coffee and red orange juice (not strawberry juice in case you were confused). If you're thinking with your head rather than your heart for a minute, one tip would be to share a gondola with other willing customers - they can seat up to 6 (c. 90 euro in total for 45 mins daytime). Venice highlights include Piazza San Marco at night (romantico!), Basilica and Campanile on a clear day and frankly just generally wandering about, taking it all in and stopping for coffee.
