 The
Hotel
The
Pensione Accademia is in the Dorsoduro district,
one of the most peaceful areas of Venice. It is
well-known for its location adjacent to the Grand
Canal, and for its two large gardens wich offer
the possibility of having relaxing moments. A full
buffet breakfast is served with cereals, season's
fruits, cheese and yougurt, to start for a perfect
day, during the summer season it is served in our
front garden. We are fortunate to have not only
Italian clients but also an affectionate foreign
clientelle. The pensione is close to the Accademia
Gallery in a 17th century villa, with rooms that
let you re-live the magnificence of the " Serenissima
".  In
the winter months, when the city lives the atmosphere
of its most antique traditions, our hotels offer
accommodations at the most favourable rates. In
winter for Music and Theatre Lovers the Lyrical
Season starts satisfying the most pretentious
tastes. The 21st of November is one of the characteristic
and popular holidays. In this day, dedicated to
the Madonna della Salute (St.Mary of Health),
you can live with the Venetians the holy festivity
and taste in our Restaurant "Da Raffaele"

On the 6th January along the Gran Canal takes
place the Regata delle Befane(regatta of the old
fairy) and then the Carnival begins apparently
having chosen our city as the ideal frame for
its pictoresque expressions and events.
 In
May thousands of participants join the non competitives
events such as the regatta " La Vogalonga"
and the walk all around the city called "
Su e zo per i ponti ". At only 15 minutes
by vaporetto from St.Mark's Square you have the
famous beach of the Lido where, in September,
is held the International Film Festival and where
you can profit of all sports and leisure activities
such as golf, tennis, horse-riding, bycicles,
skating , etc.
Also
from mid-July to mid-August our hotels offer favourable
rates. In the summer not to miss is the feast
of the " Redentore " (The Redeemer -
third week-end of July) when the pyrotechnical
fire-works will end a really magical evening.
