Canal room
Amazing location, staff, large room and check out their restaurant. Highly recommend staying here. Easy to find beside Rialto Bridge. To celebrate our anniversary they had a bottle of Prosecco in our room. Amazing way to start our Italy vacation.

Very conveniently located between Rialto and San Marco, within walking distance of all e major sights and lovely to have a view of a smaller canal from the room. As with most things in Venice, the decor is a little tired looking but the room is perfectly comfortable and has a clean, large and functional bathroom. For travellers arriving or departing by air or rail, this hotel is very convenient. The nearby Rialto stop (4mins walk) is served by the direct airport ferry as well as the regular vaporetto to the train station. For those on a budget this hotel is perfect.

The location is perfect! The rooms are beautifully decorated and clean.The staff was helpful and the breakfast was good. Our flight left late in the day and they let us leave our luggage after check out so we wouldn't have to be carrying it around. There is no elevator but that is something that didn't bother us. Overall, I would definitelystay in this hotel if I were to go to Venice again.

Hotel is in a great central location and the rooms are pleasant and clean. Reception is only manned for a few hours a day which could make checking in difficult and I am not sure what you would do if you had any issues or got locked out.The reception staff are very friendly. There are no public areas in the hotel and no facilities to make a hot drink. Bathroom had no extractor fan or windows so it was constantly steamed up.

Great location in a minutes to walk to Realto bridge and San Marco square. Good trattoria on premises with the same name Al Gazzettino - for dinner better to book in advance. On a negative site reception is opened to 7 pm. If you arriving late let them know. Breakfast is served from 8:30 am to 10:00 am - most of our tours were booked at 9 am could not use free breakfast option for most days of our staying there. Bed mattress was uncomfortable - too firm.

WoW Where to begin. I arrived to Venice without any information from hotel on how to locate. Ok my bad .. I never imagined how hard it would be to get help or directions. Took 2 hours to locate and dragging my luggage all over the city with us. Upon arrival nobody at desk, another guest let us in and noted they had not seen anybody. They left. The maid popped in and NO English of course but located our keys. I had to take up our luggage 6 flights of stairs. No lift no bellman. I'm a senior and not an easy task. . Later we met with a hotel staff who asked for city tax and that was the last time we saw anybody. There is a restaurant next door with same name... Best Italian Food in Italy... If you really really want this place I would encourage you to email and get directions, and other information. If do not want to carry luggage up stairs you should talk to them about level. Good luck..

Dear Guest, normally when you travel you have to find out how to get in the place you are going to, how to move and if you are not able you have to ask us directions and we are more than happy to give our guest directions. If you walked 2 hours in Venice, you have to understand that is because of you and not because of us. Then, the maid just did you a FAVOR to give you the room in advance because check in is after 2pm and you arrived much earlier. You have just to be grateful and not complainig that she didn't speak english. When you came down you were so rude, for what? because you get lost? We do our best everyday but we are not here to accept the rudeness of the turists. Good luck to you!

Loved the decor and design of this place its what really drew me in versus something super modern. The room was spacious and the view from our room was dreamy with gondoliers padding by ever so often. Despite being in a popular spot it wasnt too crowded or loud. 3 things I didnt like was the scent or aroma in the lobby.. very distinctive and strong and gave me a headache.. the door lock situation and how it was hard to open and close the door, no easy tap access and the doors made quite some noise as I could hear as people on the same floor left and came back. There are no elevators but luckily I was just on the first floor.

Our stay at Hotel Al Gazzettino was exceptional. The staff was extremely friendly, breakfast was delicious and the room was amazing. If you are looking for a hotel near both St. Mark's square and the Rialto bridge, look no further, you will not find anything better.

This hotel is in a really good location, the staff where lovely and friendly! The room was spacious and nicely decorated however the door to the bathroom did scrape the floor every time you opened it and there was a few floor tiles missing. However for us it wasn’t an issue to the point that we didn’t want to stay there all round it was a very decent pleasant stay! Thanks!!

Brilliant location right in the heart of Venice near Rialtto Bridge and St Marks Square. Small reasonably priced restaurant below. They will fit you in if they can if you arrive a bit late. You need to book breakfast and they stop serving at 9.30. Check out the wallpaper in the rooms :) Its fabric very beautiful . Downside no lift so if you are there for longer than 2 nights you will be fit by the time you leave. We were on the 4th floor so had 8 flights of stairs.
