$ Hotel Rossi
sits quietly at the end of a dead-end street. It's tired and quiet, renting 17
inexpensive, well-worn rooms (S-€56, D-€80, Db-€95, Tb-€115, air-con, a short walk from
the station and a block away from the main street at Lista di Spagna 262, tel. 041-715-164,
Here are several big, plush, four-star places with greedy, sky-high rack rates (around Db-
€300) that often have great discounts (as low as Db-€120) for online booking through
sliding-glass-door, uniformed-receptionist kind of comfort and formality in the old center,
these are worth considering:
$$$ Hotel Giorgione
(big, garish, shiny, near Rialto Bridge,

, see map on
here
)
;
$$$ Hotel Casa Verardo
(elegant and quietly
parked on a canal behind St. Mark's, more stately,

);
$$$ Hotel Donà
Palace
(sitting like Las Vegas in the touristy zone a few blocks behind St. Mark's Basilica,
works with neighbors
$$$ Hotel all'Angelo
and
$$$ Hotel al Ponte dei Sosperi
to rent 100
overpriced but often discounted rooms, all on Calle Larga San Marco,
www.donapalace.it
);
and
$$$ Hotel Ca' Dei Conti
(5 minutes northeast of St. Mark's Square, palatial and
perfectly located but €500 rooms are worth it only when deeply discounted,
