According to the description made by the Guild of Ss. Apostoli,
written in 1713 and resulting from e decision of the Senate on
29th August 1 711,
in calle dell'Acquavita, close to the Jesuit Quarter, there was
a 'bottega d' acquavita' (a place where alcoholic spirits were
sold) managed by Elia Giannazzi, who paid rent to Monsignor Marco
Gradenigo, Patriarch of
Aquileia. (from 'Venetian Curiosities'). The Locanda Acquavita
offers the opportunity to feel the spirit of Venice with accommodation
in a recently restored antique Venetian house. The Locanda is
only five minutes from the Rialto Bridge in the centre of the
city, but at the same time, is located on a quiet street away
from the busiest tourist thoroughfares. On leaning out from the
windows of the well-appointed and comfortable rooms, the scent
of the flowers from the gardens nearby becomes apparent, followed
by the sound of the footsteps of the few Venitians escaping the
tourist hordes. Alternatively, take in the view along the canal
running along one side of the building, leading to the lagoon
and her picturesque islands. The Locanda Aquavita is a welcoming
place, in the heart of enchanting Venice.
