Hotel Santo Stefano is located in the historical centre of Venice, just 7 minutes walk from the beautiful St. Mark square, a few steps from Rialto Bridge with its shops and the famous “La Fenice” Theater, rebuilt after a fire in 1996. Our structure is located in Campo Santo Stefano, one of the largest and most elegant in Venice, far from the confusion and noise. The windows of some of our rooms enjoy the magical view of this beautiful square. Built on a 13th-century building, a clear example of Venetian Gothic architecture, it was originally a defensive tower of a convent, which overlooked a stretch of water, later transformed into Campo Santo Stefano. The building was then a school of lace and later was used by the “maestri botteri” who were responsible for the construction of barrels. The hotel retains an elegant atmosphere of the past with distinguished and refined furniture.
