Where to stay in Venice?

Bellevue Suites- Luxury apartments overlooking San Marco, staying in 18th century Venetian style: rich decorations, silk fabrics, brocade bedspreads and all the best amenities, the Clock tower right outside the balcony, 

Hotel Saturnia- Tucked away in the streets of Venice just 5 minutes away from St Mark's Square, the rooms are furnished in modern venetian style, surrounded by shops, restaurants and entertainers, the view of the rialto bridge from your balcony, the la fenice theatre around the corner. The theatre was burnt down several times before it was rebuilt to what it is now.

Or for a different style, stay at any of the B & B's along the grand canal. They have great views and are relatively cheaper than apartments or hotels. A couple include:

Palazzo Bembo: Beautiful rooms with a viewof the grand canal and rialto bridge.

Abbazia Deluxe: A small boutique place to stay with a different environment and atmosphere in every suite.
