Venice Hotels
VeniceVenice, the Queen of the Adriatic Sea! From the ferry from Piazzale Roma to San Marco's Square, to the quaint alleys and the squares of the city of Venice, visitors are always amazed at the sights and sounds of this lovely city. Skillfully built on a swamp, the city of Venice is one of the heritages of the humanity. This architectural jewel went from being a simple village to a powerful city. Its growth was stopped by the League of Cambrai formed by the Pope, the King of France, the King of Spain and the Emperor of the Sacred Roman Empire that put an end to the power of this wonderful city in 1508. Notwithstanding this defeat, Venice survived and remained independent until the Napoleonic Army conquered it in 1797. Today Venice looks like a pondering woman, with its canals and its "campi" (fields in Italian, in Venice this noun is used to indicate the squares) that testify the splendor of its beauty that is still alive despite the time that has elapsed. Every corner of this city has an almost incredible romantic power. Venice as been practically the same for the last 500 years and staying in one of its hotels is like going back through time to the Venice of the "Dogi" or, if you prefer, to the one wonderfully described by Shakespeare in: "The Merchant of Venice".
