The Residenza Cannaregio Hotel is situated in Sestiere Cannaregio (Sestiere = a sixth, here : A Venetian quater), close to the historical centre of Venice only a short stroll away from the Rialto Bridge, a ten minutes walk from St. Mark's Square, and twenty minutes from the most important museums. The Cannaregio Canal gave this quater its name and it is one of the most picturesque and authentic areas in Venice. The Residenza Canneregio is located in a former monastry of the XVII centrury in the style of a "chiostro" (cloister) with a typical Venician courtyard. In the first years of the XIX century it became a "squero", it was the place where gondolas are build. Now it was transformed in a comfortable and very modern hotel. The hotel is situated only few steps away from the Campo del Gheto Novo, the oldest Jewish settlement in Europe and the Residenza Cannaregio can be reached by puplic boasts with a private access for gondolas and water taxis on St. Alvise Canal.
