VENICE
Getting Around Venice
Venice is known for its picturesque canals and countless bridges. The historic center has no roads or cars, meaning the only way to travel is by boat. The Conference Center hotel has a private shuttle boat that will get you to the main places around the center.
Conference Center
The Conference Center, Hilton Molino Stucky Venice, is located on peaceful Giudecca Island, well connected to the main attractions via the conference center shuttle boat, and easily accessible from both Marco Polo Venice Airport and the train station.
Once a flourishing flour mill and a historical pasta factory on Giudecca Island, Molino Stucky is internationally recognized as one of Italy’s iconic pieces of industrial architecture. Considered one of the most beautiful flour mills in Europe, at its peak, 1500 people worked in the mill, producing 50 tons of flour daily.
Originally built between the 19th and 20th centuries, it re-opened as Hilton Molino Stucky on 1st June 2007 after a careful restoration and conversion into the largest hotel in Venice.
Getting to the Conference Center
How to arrive at the TFOS Conference venue on Giudecca Island:
Whether arriving from the airport, train station, or by car, there are multiple options available to reach the Conference Center and your hotel. Shuttle services, private water-taxis, and public transport are available.
With no cars or roads, one of the main sources of public transportation through the city are the vaporetto boats, large waterbuses that travel through Venice and the nearby islands.
If you arrive at Marco Polo Airport:
Take the Alilaguna vaporetto(Blue and Red Line): €15,00 per person
If you arrive at Santa Lucia Train Station:
Take the Actv vaporetto line 2 (via Giudecca) or 4.1 to Palanca, which is a 10-minute walk from the Hotel: €9,50 per person or Take the Alilaguna vaporetto (Green Line): € 25,00 per person.
if you prefer the comfort of private transport over the use of the public waterbus, water taxis offer a quick and convenient way to travel from the airport or the train station directly to your Hotel.
Booking a water taxi can be challenging, especially during peak times when availability is limited, therefore we highly recommend booking the taxi in advance.
