The Hotel Giorgione is a 76 room hotel set in a four storey 19th century tavern and former confectionery warehouse in the Cannaregio District, 700 metres from Piazza San Marco.
All guestrooms are decorated with richly coloured brocades, antique Venetian furniture, and carpeted or terrazzo floors, and are equipped with satellite TV, minibars, and safes. Tiled bathrooms include scales, heated towel racks, and showers or shower/tub combinations.
Classical music and opera are piped into public areas of the hotel, which retain original 19th century cream and rose marble floors and rustic ceiling beams. A buffet breakfast is served each morning in a breakfast room featuring Murano glass fixtures, bottle glass door panels, delicate murals, and rose and grey brocade seating. Breakfast may also be taken in an indoor garden (heated in winter) which features a large chandelier created in 1904 by master Murano glassmaker Archimede Seguso. Complimentary coffee and tea are served in the indoor and outdoor gardens. The bar is open early evening to late night, and features television, a pool table and a computer with Internet access.
The Trattoria Enoteca is an independently operated restaurant and wine bar housed in the hotel, serving Venetian dishes for lunch and dinner.
Multilingual staff at the 24-hour front desk can offer advice on Venice's sights and attractions. The Lido of Venice, the slender island that lies a 15 minute waterbus ride east of central Venice, is the city's playground, offering beaches, water sports, golf and horseback rides. Waterbuses run to the Lido from Piazza San Marco, 700 metres from the hotel.
Marco Polo Airport is 13 kilometres and approximately a 20 minute drive from Piazzale Roma, Venice's land transport terminus.
