The
Danieli Hotel is near Piazza San Marco which is at the far
end of the Grand Canal. Unfortunately or fortunately as the
case may be if arriving by train you must take the water bus
or a water taxi the length of the grand canal before arriving
at the Hotel Danieli. Venice Island's main railway station
is called Santa Lucia (do not alight at Venice Mestre train
station which is the stop before Venice Island.) Upon exiting
Santa Lucia railway station you will see the Grand Canal.
To reach the Danieli Hotel you can either hire a private water
taxi which are available from the waterfront immediately outside
the railway station or you can take a Vaporetto or Water Bus
no. 51 which pass frequently and only in one direction. The
Vaporetto water bus takes 22 minutes to reach the hotel and
you should alight at the 4th stop Zaccaria. Alternatively
private transfers with a hostess can also be organized. Please
