Built in 1875 Hotel Villa Igea is located in Campo San Zaccaria surely one of Venice's loveliest squares. For history lovers the relics of eight early doges lie in the waterlogged crypt under the Chapel of San Tarasio. Legend has it that Casanova spent many a night frolicking in the adjoining Benedictine Abbey (now police headquarters) in the willing company of its then libertine nuns. Hotel Villa Igea boasts 30 rooms decorated in charming Venetian style half of which look onto the sunny Campo and imposing facade of the San Zaccaria Church considered a Renaissance masterpiece.
