Calle del Sturion, 677A - 30125 - Venice

 Description:
The 3 star Hotel Locanda Ovidius is right next to the
Rialto, a name deriving from "rivoaltus", indicating the point
where the land rose highest above the water, safe from high tides; one
of the first settlements in Venice was built in this area. Rialto was
the centre of traffic and trade; in fact, it was once said that all the
gold in the known world passed by this place.
It is still the favourite market of the locals; it is crowded, picturesque
and definitely worth a visit. You will be surprised by the vivacity, the
ringing voices in the fish markets and the striking colours in the vegetable
market. You may, among other things, visit the Murano glassworks in a
private motor boat, board a gondola directly from the Riva del Vin below
the hotel to visit the city, spend pleasant evenings at the symphony concerts
offered by the city's numerous orchestras, and participate in many other
initiatives.
