Hotel Bisanzio enjoys a marvelous location, just across the channel from San Marco and a short walk from the boat terminal. Guests often appreciate the spacious rooms, with some even featuring a mezzanine floor or a balcony. While some guests have found the decor a bit dated, many enjoy the generous and tasty breakfast. A free water taxi ride to Murano is a fabulous experience, available for some guests.
