4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 May 2012 NEW

First off I will start by saying the reason for the 4 is only because we were disapointed to be in the annexed property as opposed to the main building. It just did not have the same appeal as the rooms on the website. The laminate floors tended to take away from the charm. However other then that we would... More

When you get married you want everything to be perfect and this hotel fitted the bill perfectly. We booked 7 rooms for ourselves and our wedding party so are in the unique position of being able to provide feedback on nearly all the hotel rooms, which are all exquisitely and tastefully decorated. The service we received was fantastic. Paolo (the... More

The view from our window was more beautiful than I could have hoped for. Our room was on a corner, and had 3 windows gazing down on a canal. The furnishings are ornate, and elegant, with a distinct Venetian ambiance. The bed was very comfortable, and with the windows closed, was also very quiet at night. We enjoyed walking from... More

This hotel was perfect for my 4th visit to Venice...central location on a well maintained campo at the intersection of 2 canals. My room was fine and the modern bathroom was large by Venetian standards. Three flights of stairs did not prove difficult for this senior and the breakfasts were generous. The staff were uniformly courteous and helpful, especially with... More

This was a very nice and clean hotel. Breakfast was very nice with warm rolls and assorted meats and cheeses. It was a little had to find for first timers to Venice, every one gets lost but it was hard hauling suitcases. The location was central to the thing we wanted to see.The first floor is over 40 steps up.

We liked everything: 2nd floor corner room, overlooking a canal on two sides so we could listen to the Gondolas call to each other as they approached. There was plenty of space, it was beautifully furnished and well appointed with all the facilities you could want. Breakfast was on the same floor and just enough to get us set up... More

Spent 4 days there in March on my 5th or 6th trip to Venice. Was a last minute special (40% off end of winter sale) so I chose that hotel. Very central to main attractions (Rialto, San Marco, Academia, Peggy Guggenheim...) and short walk to boat going to Murano/Burano in the hospital area. Room was good and spacious, A little... More

My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights in mid March. When we arrived from airport from Rome, we took the bus (€5/per person) to the main water taxi stop and from there we took the water taxi which cost around €2. We stop at Rialto stop and we took a while searching for the hotel as all streets... More
