The location is perfect. Close to St. Mark's piazza, tower, basilica and the Doge's Palace. On the water open to the San Macro Canal. Gondolas wait just outside the door. The breakfast was good, lots of variety and well stocked. The staff was kind of abrupt while restocking the buffet. The front desk was very helpful with wifi connections, maps,... More

We arrived in Venice on the last leg of a ten day stay starting in Rome, then to Florence and finally ending in Venice. We arrived by train and were misdirected by the Vaporetto clerk and took the wrong public water taxi to San Marco. We had to carry our bags about a mile and a half (over 4 canals)... More

Stopped here on a 4 day stay usually stop at another hotel but prices were too high so decided to try here. I will definetely be stopping here again. Staff freindly, breakfast on the terrace overlooking the gondola station in the sun. Set right on the edge of St Marks square with all the shops just around the outskirts of... More

Right on the grand canal and within spitting distance of st marks square and Harry's bar, u could not get a better location to stay in Venice. Lovely terrace bar and restuarant with great views. Very nice breakfast and good atmosphere in the bar. Room on the small side and we had upgraded and asked for a canal view. We... More

The location is practically unbeatable for the price. There is a Gondolier stop right on the patio, practically. The terrace is ON the grand Canal. This is where we ate breakfast each day..and I was back in Venice a week later and took my husband there to eat late lunch..the view is SO great. I wanted him to see where... More

First off, the location of this hotel is fantastic. San Marco is practically at the doorstep as are all the high-end boutiques like Prada, Bottega, etc. The vaporetto stop is also at your doorstep. We arrived by water taxi from the airport and literally disembarked onto the hotel patio, at which you can take breakfast. The rest of the hotel,... More

Had a great 4 night stay at this lovely hotel, a former palace recently refurbished cleverly combining both traditional and contemporary styles. It is conveniently close to the Vaporetta (waterbus) stop at Piazza San Marco. Breakfast on the terrace was a delight with a wonderful view across the Grand Canal and gondolas. The room was very clean, comfortable and had... More

The rooms were worn out and should be urgently renovated. They were decorated in a very standard business-like fashion, and were quite small, which is usual for Venice. The staff at the reception was very unfriendly, and the concierge was neither kind nor helpful. However, the hotel's location is great, right next to the Plazza San Marco. And the breakfast... More

My husband &i have just had a fantastic 4 day trip with my parents staying here. The staff were very attentive and helpful. We had lovely rooms on 3rd floor, we didn't have much of a view but breakfast on the terrace in the sunshine every morning more than made up for that. We booked a B&B package and breakfast... More
