Villa Odino Hotel

On the banks of the Sile river, in the midst of the greenery of a century-old park at the doors of Venice, in the village of Quarto d'Altino, Hotel Villa Odino is a place of unexpected quiet and elegance. A country residence for the bishops of Venice dating back to the 16th century, it still preserves its ancient charm although it now comes with the most modern of comforts.

Located 25 km from Venice and 30 km from the beach at Jesolo, 15 km from Treviso and 4 from the ancient Altino, Hotel Villa Odino commands a prime location for those wishing to stay for leisure or business in a quiet place surrounded by nature far from heavy traffic yet very close to interesting cities of the eastern Veneto region either for their tourist value or for their commercial importance.

Marvelous Venice can be reached in 25 minutes by car or, even more conveniently, in 20 minutes by train (Santa Lucia station is right in the center of the city). From there you can walk through narrow streets and small squares, or take the vaporetto that goes through the Grand Canal up to the most famous sites: Rialto Bridge and Saint Mark's.

There the scenery is truly extraordinary, the Square is a gigantic drawing room punctuated by beautiful buildings: The Basilica with its Byzantine cupolas, the Ducal Palace, of delightful gothic architecture, and the colonnade of the Procuratie portico where you will find the Correr Museo Civico, the venue for important temporary exhibits, and Biblioteca Marciana, which houses very old manuscripts and the very first printed books.

Restaurant

Picturesque and charming, 2 minutes from the hotel at Casale sul Sile, the San Nicolò is Villa Odino's restaurant. Local Veneto dishes as well as many other Italian ones with an international touch are served in characteristic and elegant rooms.

Their fish specialty served either raw or grilled, in risotto or spaghetti, with selected wines from the excellent cellar, has contributed to San Nicolò's reputation as one of the best restaurants in the area. The red radicchio of Treviso and the asparagus from the Grave del Piave are refined vegetables and main ingredients (when in season) of other delicacies. Pick up service to and from Villa Odino.
