From Piazzale Roma or train station, take vaporetto line 2 to Rialto stop. From Marco Polo Airport, use Alilaguna shuttle to Rialto. Venice is accessible via highway A4, with parking available in Piazzale Roma garages.
“Al Ponte Antico distinguishes itself with an intimate setting and personalized service; the owners clearly invest themselves in the guest experience. The Grand Canal views and homemade breakfasts stand out, adding to the hotel's charm. I find the blend of a prime location and a quiet, family-run atmosphere particularly appealing, offering an authentic Venetian experience.”
