HOTEL TIZIANO, Venice

The hotel is situated in the historic Dorsoduro district, known for its local atmosphere and proximity to the university. The San Basilio vaporetto stop (line 2) is 5 minutes away, providing direct connections to the train station and major attractions. Santa Lucia train station is a 20-minute walk. The cruise terminal at San Basilio is 5-10 minutes on foot. Piazzale Roma (bus station and car park) is about 15 minutes walking. While the location is quiet and residential, main tourist sites like St. Mark's Square require a 25-40 minute walk. Public vaporetto is the most practical transport, especially with luggage. Parking is not available; use the Piazzale Roma garage and walk or take water transport.
