My partner and I really loved this hotel. It exceeded all our expectations - fantastic room, excellent (and very friendly) staff and a handy location just on the fringe of the tourist throng around the Rialto area. When booking a hotel in Venice, we were seeking a special room with a small balcony and a view of the Grand Canal... More

one of the few truly luxury hotels in venice. newly built with modern comfort. gorgeous bathrooms and facilities. excellent service, too. it's located kind of just outside and core busy parts of town, so you will likely take the public boat wherever you go, and so a boat pass should probably be considered essential. but it's extremely close to the...

We arrived very late at night and were so glad to find our lovely oasis of a hotel in the middle of the streets of Venice. The entrance is through a small garden area with chairs and tables that you can relax in, which seemed perfect welcome for us as it was about 1am and warm still. The night porter... More

Firstly, fantastic location. Private dock on the Grand Canal so straight into reception from a private water taxi, or literally 2 minutes walk from San Stae vaporetto. Lovely staff. Any little problems (we had Italian towels in the room first day so swapped for regular towels the next) were dealt with without fuss. Great sized room. We had the superior.... More

This property was wayyyy more impressive than the casual reviews left here by others. Helloo! It's a fabulous hotel on the grand canal with water taxi service at the hotel how cool and breakfast included. It's upscale, amazing staff, great location, vaporetto stop just steps away. We were so thrilled we upgraded to a room with a view. Wow it... More

very very nice hotel close to rialto and conveniently located close to a vaporetto stop for both city line and airport line. we had a nice room (althou under the roof, thus a bit tiny, but we booked with 5 days notice), newly renovated and quite large bathroom. the hotel is a nice mix of modern and antique style (the...

I assess all hotels by Britania hotel, Lisbon and Soho House New York and Miami (which are hard acts to follow) so i'll start with complaints first: we were moved from Ca'Favretto San Cassiono as they had a "flood" so our room was not available. My first impression of Hotel Palazzo Giovanelli was positive. Its modern with a hint of... More

Hotel Palazzo Giovanelli is a lovely and affordable boutique hotel on the Grand Canal. Recent design updates to the interior successfully blend the old with the new. Our room was attractive, clean and not too small with a nice bathroom - and a balcony overlooking a garden courtyard. A good breakfast in the small diningroom was included with the price... More

We stayed at Hotel Palazzo Giovanelli this week. The hotel is beautiful. The decor is an impressive blend of modern fixtures in a stunning old palace. The painted ceilings in the second level sitting rooms are amazing. The courtyard and old well in the lobby were beautiful features. The location is right next to a beautiful church and the waterbus... More
