  • A Venice Fish Hostel is located in the Cannaeregio district, within walking distance to authentic Venetian shops and restaurants. The Fish is definitely a party hostel; the common room is designated for socializing, but it usually turns into the post-bar hangout. There is no lockout, no curfew, and linens are included.

  • A Venice Fish was absolutely fantastic. The owners took us out every night and to the beach during the day. They even made breakfast lunch and dinner for everyone in the hostel. It was by far the nicest hostel I stayed in in Europe.

DIRECTIONS

Remember that in Venice there are no streets. The city is divided into the six sestieri of Cannaregio, San Polo, Dorsoduro, Santa Croce, San Marco and Castello. We are located in CANNAREGIO SESTIERE.

From SANTA LUCIA TRAIN STATION, AS SOON AS YOU LEAVE THE STATION, make a LEFT and walk for 100 meters (about 8 minutes) and look for N. 2205 . Keep going until you are RIGHT BEFORE THE 3RD BRIDGE and look for Campo de la Maddelena. Do not cross this bridge, you will see a wine bar to your left, if you look to the right you will see our balcony with sunflowers You should see the white church and to the left there is a private bridge, our bridge. Cross it and you should see 2205 Cannaregio.

* From the airport Venice - Marco Polo or Treviso please take the bus to Venice bus-terminal Piazzale Roma;

*If you are coming from either the bus-terminal Piazzale Roma or the train station Santa Lucia please take water-bus N. 1 in the direction of Rialto and get off at San Marcuola stop (which is also the stop for the Venice Casino). The boat ride will take only 5 minutes. If you walk this instead, it will save you money.

*The walking distance from San Marcuola boat stop to A Venice Fish is just 3 minutes. Please follow these directions:

-Exit the boat stop
-Turn right
-Cross the little bridge and continue towards the Casino, then turn left for the main street Cannaregio where you will turn right and look for Campo de la Maddalena (which is a small square) on your right. We have a private bridgethat you'll need to cross in order to get to the front door. You will see 2205. Ring the bell and we'll let you in! We always hang a sheet outside of the window and we have the nicest balcony on the square so you can't miss us!
