Sitting on the banks of the River Sile, this Veneto hotel is set in lush green parkland, laid out more than a century ago. The Hotel Villa Odino is in Quarto d'Altino - offering excellent access to the city of Venice itself. The villa was built as a rural retreat for the Bishops of Venice back in the 1500s. This is a superb strategic location: 25km from Venice, 30km from the beach at Jesolo (on the Adriatic coast), 15km from Treviso and 4km from the Roman ruins of Altino.
Venice needs little introduction and it's just 25 minutes by car or 20 by train from the hotel. But ensure you check out medieval Treviso too. Just 30 minutes from the Hotel Villa Odino, it is a gem within sixteenth century walls, a medieval town that inspired Dante in his Divine Comedy. And there is Altino, once a bustling Roman centre, and with the archaeological remains a fascinating day out.
