Nearby Attractions |
Not far from the Riva degli Schiavoni, The Liassidi Palace Hotel is situated in the Castello quarter, in the heart of what is still an authentic Venice where places, sounds and atmospheres have conserved their own identity, which the inhabitants guard closely.
Walking through these streets you might come across a group of children playing in the shadow of a bell tower, or indeed women chatting from the window as they hang out their washing on the suspended wires or men talking about football and politics in a typical “bàcaro” (small bar).
Overlooking the San Lorenzo Canal, The Liassidi Palace is among the few hotels in Venice that is situated just a few metres from The Church of St. George of the Greeks with its Byzantine masterpieces and works of art from the School of San Nicoḷ with its splendid collection of icons.
