Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel is situated in a lovely square, making it convenient to access all the attractions of Venice. The rooms offer a full-sized shower and a wide bathroom but lack AC. The service is excellent with amenities like dry cleaning, housekeeping, and laundry. The dining experience includes cured meat but may not be included in the price. Overall, it's a great value for money stay!
This hotel is an absolute gem! The location is perfect, situated in a peaceful area away from tourist crowds, allowing for a great night's sleep. The rooms are spacious with a wide bathroom and a full-sized shower, making it incredibly comfortable. Although the hotel is not right on the water bus route, its proximity to the nearby canal for deliveries adds a unique charm. Dining here is a treat with included authentic Indian dishes, but the lack of AC can be uncomfortable on hot days.
I absolutely loved this hotel! The location is superb, nestled in a beautiful hidden square just a short walk from St Marko Square. The rooms were spacious and modern, ensuring a comfortable stay. The staff went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. However, the dining experience, while included, could have offered more variety. Overall, a great value for money with a peaceful ambiance away from the tourist crowds.
