Our stay was magical in the Casanova Suite. Perfect experience from A to Z. Great breakfast in the room with the amazing view of the ponte dei sospiri. Raffaele was great at the room service, very friendly.
Great location and the kindest staff ever. I especially want to thank Rafael for making our stay and memory in Venice more special and warmly welcomed. Strongly recommend this hotel.
Our stay was amazing! Everyone was friendly and very helpful! Our room was very comfortable and we were in walking distance of St. Mark’s square. Really enjoyed our stay!
This was a lovely hotel with many great restaurants within a few blocks. Easy to get to water transit, gondoliers going down the canal regularly, and close to St Mark's Square. Great breakfast delivered to your room.
We had a lovely stay at this hotel. It was the perfect location, close to everything. We stayed in a junior suite which was a large room with beautiful Venetian decor- we loved it!! The in room breakfast delivery was such a nice touch!
Very central, friendly staff, big room, clean and quiet. Nice bed and shower. Breakfast served in the room was excellent. Mant restaurants nearby, including Rossopomodoro on the right corner, which is open later than others.
The property is conveniently located to attractions with its own landing dock, and we could see the Bridge of Sighs from our balcony. We felt very safe walking in the area. The staff was attentive to our needs, with very special thanks to Rafaelle. We definitely would stay there again!
Great quality for the price. Casanova Suite was nice and had a great view of the Bridge of Sighs. Not a 'suite' as might be expected, in terms of size - still very nice. Breakfast is delivered to the room - only option and it was just fine. Great location - quite and across from the best pizzeria in Venice m, Rosso Pomodoro!
We had the junior suite with canal view and it was gorgeous! We actually spent extra time in the room because it was so nice. We loved opening the big window doors to the balcony and people watching with the gondola stop just below. And we could also open up all the windows and smell the sea and it was like you were half outside. And the in room breakfast was so lovely and fancy. All in all a wonderful stay.
Rafaela started our day with a smile and unparalleled exuberance! His daily actions and service provided us a unique experience we will never forget. Thank you!
Great little boutique hotel. Its on a canal that is busy and was noisy over the weekend. Like in America, teenage boys out cruising the canals with music blasting. The bed was squeaky and a bit firm for our comfort, but the room was large and very nice. The staff was excellent and very attentive. Breakfast is served each morning in your room, included in the price. It's very close to St. Mark's square and lots of shopping. You do have to drag your luggage from the taxi drop off point and lots of bridges to cross and most do not have ramps, so be prepared to drag your luggage up and down the stairs over the bridges. We did get a porter from the hotel to the taxi area, 35 euro for 4 bags and that was a much nicer transfer. We would stay there again, but plan on week days over the weekends.
Property is very nice and clean. There seems to be no AC in the room so we opened windows as it was too hot. That was a mistake,- mosquitoes got in right away even in early March. The front desk person didn’t have the repellent. But once we mentioned mosquitos to the person who was bringing breakfast, Rafael( might misspelled the name), he said, “just give me a minute” and he was right back with the repellent. He was just exceptional. Always smiling, supper helpful, and also got us a little gift, which was beyond sweet. Overall place is nice. It’s one block away from St. Marcos basilica so the crowed was there all the time, even at night and we were there off season.
We Loved our stay. Raphael was an exceptional host. We loved meeting his son Alejandro. It was an amazing comfortable experience.
Our son and daughter in law were married at Lake Como and we had our 14th Anniversary while in Venice. Gracie for your kindness and hospitality
Fabulously central location, wonderful view and exceptionally charming staff including the always cheerful Raffaele make this 5⭐️ The water taxi arrival and departure were icing on the cake!
