Lovely little hotel in the heart of San Marco. The hotel ia a 2 minute walk from St Mark’s Square and an easy base for getting around Venice. Room was adequate and comfortable, the bonus was having a small fridge to store water etc. Breakfast was simple, fruit juice, coffe, yoghurt and a selection of breads and croissant served to your table, enough to start ypur day.

Stayed at this hotel for 2 nights, I had read all kinds of reviews but here is my honest review from a well traveled individual. I had heard the hotel was a nightmare to find but we didn’t think it was that bad, we had flown into Marco pollo airport and bought a return bus fare so decided to walk from the bus terminal to the hotel, it was a nice walk we stopped at a cafe on the way for breakfast which was nice. We soon came to the Rialto bridge and the hotel is a 5 minute walk from here, Google maps led us straight there, it is down some quirky back streets but we remembered where it was and didn’t get lost again. So we checked in, we paid €14 cash for the room tax for the two nights. So on arrival take a photo of the Wi-Fi password and door code which is on the desk so if you get back late you can just let yourself in. You are given a big heavy key for your room just hand it in when you go out. The room was clean and Venetian style, 2 single beds pushed together, dressing table, large mirror and wardrobe. In the wardrobe there was a mini fridge and safe but we didn’t use these. The en-suite had a jacuzzi bath, toilet, sink and soap, shower gel was provided. There was a tv on the wall and consisted of Italian Channels, I don’t come to a city like Venice to sit in a room and watch tv so didn’t bother me. Breakfast was included and this is located on the 3rd floor, smallish room which also has an outdoor terrace. I’m presuming this room may also be a bar in the evening as there was alcohol behind the counter. So the breakfast is continental and consisted of bread, croissants, cereal, yogurt, meats, cheese, juices and there were jam and chocolate spread and you could order coffee. Basic breakfast but everything is fresh and puts you on until lunch time. So in Venice you are not gong to find modern hotels with modern furnishings, most are vintage Venetian at their best and this adds to the charm and character of Venice. The staff on the front desk were polite as was the lady at breakfast. The location is great, just 5 minute walk to the Rialto bridge and if you go the other way it’s 5 minutes walk to st marks square. You also have lots of shopping on your door step and there are so many bars and restaurants about, you can do Venice on a budget as there are lots of little cheap bakery’s or pasta/pizza shops. We were out in restaurants both nights, for a 2 course meal with drinks and wine you are looking at around €80 for 2. It is walkable if you are capable and it’s great just exploring and looking around. Remember there are lots of bridges where ever you go. We just took a backpack so we didn’t have any issues. It is also worth buying the actv travel pass whist you are there, this gets you on the bus from the airport and vapereto around the city and we also used it to go to burano for lunch. You will love Venice x

“Reasonably Priced with an Excellent Location”

Location of this hotel was excellent, close to San Marco and all the attractions plus shopping. The hotel offered great value for money as it was very resonably priced, having booked two rooms we had no complaints on this hotel at all. Staff were pleasant enough, the lady at breakfast was lovely, very cheerful and couldn’t do enough. The hotel and rooms were to a clean standard, comfortable with working air conditioning, we did not use the WiFi. The property was a little challenging to find at the start but that only adds to the charm of Venice. We book this hotel in a hurry as Venice was booking up fast for our planned dates, then read the reviews and we were quite worried. However, I can honestly say we had no complaints with this hotel . This is not a 5 start hotel and it does not try to give the impression that it is, rooms are expensive in Venice and you get what you pay for, we were a family of 6, 2 adults and 4 children and required 2 rooms. I can honestly say we could have all slept in one of the roomes it wascertainly big enough. we only stayed one night and this was aperfect spot. We did not watch TV or use the internet instead we used this as a base to explore and enjoy all tha Venice had to offer and would definitely stay here again when visiting Venice.

I booked our stay on booking.com. The booking went smoothly. Communication with the hotel about our arrival time was easy. The location is great for using San Marco square as a reference point. The vaporeto stops near by and made it relatively easy to get to the hotel. I say “relatively “ because no matter where you are—unless you’ve booked a hotel on the canal—you WILL drag your bags over rough streets and a long way! That’s just Venice. The hotel room was basic and had what we needed, including a hair dryer. The included breakfast was basic: yogurt, muesli, croissants, meats, cheese. The coffee was good and made fresh. The bed was comfortable, shower pressure was excellent, and the hotel has an elevator. The hotel entrance is around the corner from the sign in the photo below.
