I stayed here with my girlfriend in mid-March 2012 and loved it. The value was excellent, location second to none and Valentina was incredibly accommodating! The location of Casa Petrarca is between St Marks Square and Rialto Bridge, a 3-5 minute walk from either. When we booked Valentina was incredibly helpful with making sure we found the hotel, her directions... More

All things considered, this really was excellent value given the location, however our room was lacking. Because of the price we chose the shared bathroom- a tip for those doing a similar thing is that there is two rooms that share the bathroom- one is very close, and the other (ours) very far away. The bed was ok, not uncomfortable... More

We were very pleased we chose Casa Petrarca for our four night stay in Venice. The location is very central for St Marks Square and for Rialto - both only a few minutes walk away. This meant that if we wished we could easily come back to our room during the day, which we did to get respite from the... More

The location for a hotel in Venice could not be better. Right between Rialto and San Marco. Rooms are clean and nice, staff is more than helpfull and prices are low considering Venice pricelevel. Breakfast served in the hotel is ok. Some rooms has a shared bathroom which can be selected when booking. More

Very friendly, welcoming staff. Our room was above a busy street but it quietened enough for us to sleep piece-fully. Bed was very comfortable. Room was decorated very nicely, it felt very venetian. Easy walk to main stops. They were accommodating to us, as it was winter and the tide was rising we had to check out very early in... More

Easy walking distance to Rialto & San Marco even for an 83 yr old was perfect for our family (even dragging luggage). Our room was quite squishy for 4 of us and initially we were concerned about the noise coming from the canal & footbridge under our window but it soon quietened down at bed time. Beds were comfy and... More

We stayed here in September 2011 and found the hosts to be extremely friendly and helpful. We accidently mixed up our dates for check in and realized that we had arrived there 3 days early. The place was fully book however the hosts did everything they could to try and help us find a new hotel to stay in. When... More

great location, between Piazza San Marco and the Rialto Bridge. Large room with kitchen, very clean, comfortable beds, quiet., With a great overlook the canal. Bathroom small but clean. Breakfast simple but nice. The staff was very friendly and helpful. It made my trip to Venice so much better. More

I first stayed at Casa Petrarca in 2003 and chose to return here with my husband in September 2011. There is little to fault about this establishment - it is in an excellent location, it is quiet, clean, and the proprietors are simply lovely. Valentina and Stefano were both very friendly and helpful and prepared a tasty continental breakfast for... More
