Where to find a cheap hotel near the Rialto Bridge?
The Rialto Bridge is one of the most iconic landmarks in Venice. With its historic stone structure, shops nestled along its arches, and breathtaking views over the Grand Canal, it’s a must-see for anyone visiting the city. Staying nearby may seem like a luxury reserved for a few, but there is a solution that combines proximity to Rialto, affordable prices, comfort, and convenience: Hotel Tivoli, located in the lively yet peaceful district of Dorsoduro. Less than a 15-minute walk from the bridge, it’s a smart option for travelers who want to enjoy Venice’s heart without exceeding their budget.
A perfect location for exploring on foot
Hotel Tivoli is centrally located in a quiet area, just far enough from the hustle to be relaxing, but close enough to reach all the major sites on foot. Reaching the Rialto Bridge is easy: you’ll walk through authentic Venetian streets, crossing Campo Santa Margherita and Campo San Polo—two of the most charming open squares in the city—before arriving at the bridge itself. Along the way, you’ll discover artisanal shops, hidden churches, and picturesque corners that most tourists miss.
This walking route is not only scenic, but also safe and well-lit in the evening—ideal for couples, solo travelers, and families alike.
Excellent vaporetto connections
If you prefer not to walk, or if you’re traveling with luggage, the San Tomà vaporetto stop is only a few minutes away from the hotel. From there, you can take line 1 or 2 to Rialto, St. Mark’s Square, Murano, or even the train station. This makes Hotel Tivoli an excellent base not only for visiting the city center, but also for exploring the lagoon’s outer islands or planning day trips.
