Das Eigentum — B&B Giardini
B&B Giardini is a modest three-star set in Castello, a quiet residential district a short walk from the Biennale gardens and the Arsenale vaporetto stop. The building is an old Venetian palazzo with high ceilings, terrazzo floors and a small communal garden where you can eat breakfast in warm weather. It suits independent travellers who want a clean, no-frills base away from the San Marco crowds, not romance or luxury. Standing in the lobby you smell fresh coffee from the breakfast room and hear the faint chime of church bells.
Chroniken von Venice
Venice was founded in the 5th century when mainland refugees fled barbarian invasions to settle on the mudflats of the lagoon. Over the next thousand years it grew into a maritime republic that controlled trade routes from the Adriatic to the Black Sea, leaving a legacy of Gothic palaces, Byzantine domes and stone bridges. The city peaked as a cultural powerhouse in the Renaissance with painters like Titian and Tintoretto, then declined after Napoleon’s conquest. Today it survives on tourism, with a permanent population under 50,000, while its lagoon struggles with cruise ships, rising sea levels and the constant battle against acqua alta.
Beste Zeit zu besuchen
Vollständiger Venice-Guide →Die besten Monate
May, June, September — warm but not stifling, fewer cruise-ship crowds than July and August, and the Biennale art shows are still running or just finished.
Peak / Festival Surge
July and August are the absolute peak: heat, humidity, and wall-to-wall tourists. Hotel prices double, and San Marco’s piazza can feel like a cattle pen. The main driver is summer school holidays across Europe and the US, plus the Redentore festival (third weekend July) with fireworks over the Giudecca Canal.
Budget Schulter Saison
April and October are the sweet spots: cooler but still pleasant, rooms 30-40% cheaper than peak, and you can walk the Rialto bridge without being pushed. October also sees the start of the Venice International Film Festival.
Wetter & Verpackung
July in Venice is muggy and often still, with temperatures around 28-32°C and a chance of sudden afternoon thunderstorms. Pack light linen or cotton clothes, a thin rain jacket or umbrella, and comfortable walking shoes—the canal-side pavements get slick when wet.
Live City Briefing veröffentlicht — Venice
- The city introduced a €5 entrance fee for day-trippers on peak dates in 2024, and while it’s not active every day, check if your travel dates fall on a ‘ticketed’ day. You’ll need to book a slot online if you arrive from 8:30am to 4pm.
- The vaporetto (water bus) network now runs an express line from the airport to San Marco, reducing travel time to about 45 minutes. Buy a 24-hour pass at the airport ticket desk—it works out cheaper than single fares.
- Summer 2026 sees the Biennale Arte still open until November, so the Giardini della Biennale near the hotel will be busy with art fans. Book restaurant tables in Castello a day ahead; locals fill them during exhibition months.

Top-Attraktionen in Venice

💡 Head to Campo Santa Margherita for a cheap Aperol Spritz and people-watching; it's less crowded than San Marco.
💡 Queue early (before 9:30am) to avoid long waits; cover shoulders and knees else they turn you away.
💡 During non-Biennale years, the park is empty and peaceful; bring a picnic as cafes nearby are overpriced.
💡 Buy a combined ticket with the Scuola Grande di San Rocco next door (€12 total) for two major art collections in one trip.
