Harkening from the 16th century, this property in the tourist zone retains old-world appeal with all the modern necessities. In an advantageous position between the Rialto Bridge and St Mark�s Square, the Scandinavia Hotel is in a good spot for sightseers, putting them right near the top landmarks on any Venetian itinerary. D�cor is classic Italian, with dark antique-style furniture and lots of drapery, while views from rooms can include the neighboring Santa Maria Formosa church and the market stalls in the campo. More than just another old building, legend has it that the Scandinavia is where Othello wooed Desdemona � a story the owners are more than willing to embellish for guests. More history can be found in the campo next door where an apparition of the Virgin Mary in the 1400�s appeared and inspired the building of the church that stands there today.
