I would recommend a hostel or a halfway house as a step up from albergo doni. I was horrified to be greeted by a musky smell of an unkempt building. This hotel was not clean and the decor was horrendous. I would like to see a safety report from a building inspector as I am quite confident that this place... More

excellent localization, 2 min from St Marco, 1 min from the motorboat, easy access from airport and station, good price for budget travels, but we got a very very cold room. My GF got cold after first night. There was a heating system in the room but it heated only the air for a bit (walls very cold, no central... More

My mum had stayed here twice in the past and highly recommended it because of its exceptional price - only 90E a night for a double room (shared bathroom) - and location. It's a few minutes' walk from St Mark's and close to the canal boat stops (easy access to the train station and airport). While it is a little... More

My husband and I stayed for 2 nights at Albergo Doni. The B &B was easy to find, and minutes from St.Mark's square. It has a lot of charm too. We stayed in a very romantic room that faces the canal - we could hear the gondeliers in the evening as they passed by. The room had a shared bath... More

This was a great location for exploring Venice. Room was basic but fine - and nice to hear gondoliers singing beneath the window. Staff pleasant and friendly. Don't wear socks walking in the halls or to the bathroom though as floors were pretty slippy and I managed to have a bit of a nasty fall. Pillows are hard so was... More

Great location and that's it. If you are going to stay in Venice pay a little more and get somewhere that you will be able to get a good nights sleep. Stuffy. mosquitos. towels in need of replacing. poor service from night staff. don't try to turn a light on in the dining room at night (only wifi access area)..... More

For the solo traveler who only intends to be in the room to sleep, I would recommend staying here. The single room would not fit more than 1 person if attempted. A ceiling fan kept the room at a decent temperature at night (when it was about 72-75 degrees outside) although I am not sure how adequate it would be... More

If the location and the rate is your only concern otherwise please find another hotel More

It's old and a little tired but very homey and well priced and felt like the Venice I knew 25 years ago. The gondoliers sing outside your windows every morning as they prepare their boats for the day's work and you're only a few steps away from San Marco, San Zacarria, good shops, and a host of wonderful restaurants. We... More
