Central Dorsoduro Location

Historical Building Legacy

The hotel is named after the Cavanis brothers, who founded Venice's first free public school in the 19th century. The building was formerly a religious guesthouse offering shelter to pilgrims. It operates as the budget annex (Depandance) of the 3-star Hotel Belle Arti.

“The location is certainly a plus, placing you conveniently in the Dorsoduro quarter, close to the Accademia Bridge. While the building has some historic charm, the experience feels more like staying in a well-situated annexe; breakfast is across the street, and the rooms are simply equipped, yet clean. Overall, it's a reasonable choice if location and budget are your priorities.”
