Choosing a hotel in the historic centre of Venice means having the opportunity to immediately immerse yourself in the city’s authentic local atmosphere and stay just a short walk from its most important landmarks and monuments.
Fenice Studios offers all of this thanks to its location in Calle del Caffettier, in the very central San Marco district, just steps from the Grand Canal and the Doge’s Palace.
Modern yet rich in history at the same time, it is set within a historic Venetian townhouse. Original architectural features and contemporary comforts create a unique and evocative bridge between two different eras, providing guests with every convenience within an ancient setting.

Luxury hotel in the historical centre of Venice
Among Fenice Studios’ strengths is its central and strategic location, just a short walk from:
- Teatro La Fenice, 29 metres: one of the world’s great temples of opera, founded in 1792, destroyed by fires in 1836 and again in 1996. In 2003 it came back to life with its late-Baroque and Neoclassical interior design, featuring the Theatre Hall, the Apollinee Rooms, and the Royal Box;
- St. Mark’s Square, 50 metres: the drawing room of Venice, the only city space to bear the title “Piazza”. Overlooking it are:
- St. Mark’s Basilica: the “Golden Church”, a masterpiece of Italo-Byzantine art, boasting 8,000 square metres of golden mosaics;
- Doge’s Palace: with its unmistakable Venetian Gothic style, it was the former seat of the Doge and the Venetian magistracies;
- The Campanile: “El paron de casa” rises to 98.6 metres, ranking among the tallest bell towers in Italy;
- Clock Tower: with the two bronze Moors striking the hours, and a mechanism that shows the lunar phases and the zodiac;
- The Procuratie: the long arcades enclosing the square are now home to offices and host some of the oldest cafés in the world;
- Rialto Bridge, 150 metres: the oldest and most famous of the four bridges that cross the Grand Canal. Designed by Antonio da Ponte with a single-arch structure and completed in 1591. It rests on 12,000 larch-wood piles, with a span of about 28 metres and a maximum height of 7.5 metres. It is divided into three flights of steps, with the central one flanked by two rows of traditional shops.
