Venice Hotel map and travel info

Getting there

Planes, trains, automobiles, or maybe even helicopter – we tell you the best way to go.

Planes

Marco Polo (www.veniceairport.com) and Treviso airports (www.trevisoairport.com) serve Venice. From Marco Polo, take the public ferry or travel into the centre in style aboard a speedboat (this will set you back around €100 each). From Treviso, it’s a 25-minute taxi journey (€70); or hop on a ATVO Eurobus for €5; it takes 80 mins.

Boats

Venice’s vaporettos provide an inexpensive way to get from A to B (www.actv.it). They all take the same route; the difference is how many stops they make, which can take some time.

Trains

Venice is well connected to other Italian cities – Padua, Vicenza and Treviso are all within easy reach. You can also travel overnight from London via Paris to Venice on the train; see www.eurostar.com and www.italiarail.com for details. Santa Lucia station is on the Grand Canal, so jump on a water taxi or the Grand Canal water bus.

Automobiles

Avoid taking a car; you have to park on the mainland and get a train or watertaxi.
