A family hotel beside St Mark's
Hotel Flora is run by the Romanelli family on a quiet street in the sestiere of San Marco, a few steps from the square and the Grand Canal. It has forty rooms spread through an old building, with a hidden garden in the inner courtyard that is what most distinguishes it: in a city almost without greenery, having breakfast or a drink among plants, away from the noise of Calle Larga XXII Marzo, changes the day. The hotel also has a bar with an old-fashioned air, a lounge, 24-hour concierge, laundry service and daily cleaning.
The rooms
The rooms keep period furniture, damask fabrics and Murano glass lamps. All have air conditioning and free wifi, and the corner rooms look onto the inner garden or the private courtyard of the neighbouring Palazzo Contarini. There are singles, doubles, triples and family rooms, as well as a family suite.
For those travelling with small children it is one of the most comfortable options in the centre: the family rooms have a cot and high chair, and they ask for a changing table if you need one. The hotel lends a pushchair during your stay, offers babysitting by reservation and has nappies or wipes ready if you ask before arriving. There is a lift, which in Venice is not always the case.
Italian breakfast is included in the price. The hotel does not publish fixed rates: the price appears on its booking engine according to the date.
Getting there without dragging your bags
The nearest stops are Santa Maria del Giglio and San Marco-Vallaresso, both on vaporetto line 1 and about three minutes' walk from the hotel. From Santa Lucia station or from Piazzale Roma, take line 1 to either; the journey along the Grand Canal is already a first sightseeing trip.
From Marco Polo airport you have three options, according to the hotel: the Alilaguna boat, orange line to Santa Maria del Giglio or blue to San Marco; the ACTV or ATVO bus to Piazzale Roma and, from there, line 1; or a water taxi to the door. If you come by car, the hotel recommends leaving it at Garage San Marco in Piazzale Roma or at Tronchetto, with prior reservation.
What is nearby
St Mark's Square is about five minutes' walk away, so it is a good base for climbing the bell tower first thing or for arriving on time for the Doge's Palace secret itineraries tour. From Santa Maria del Giglio line 1 leaves to travel the Grand Canal by vaporetto or go down to the Lido in summer.
