    It was great - nothing to grumble about.

    Lovely hotel right on the canal. Away from the hussle and bussle but easy to get everywhere. The hotel was beautiful and the staff were great. Lovely views and a treat to have breakfast right on the canal outside each morning. Highly recommend it.

    perfect stay
    • Business trip
    • Family with young children
    • Junior Suite with Canal View
    • Stayed 2 nights

    This is not something the hotel can control but we did not understand why some guests do not have consideration of other guests. There was a small group of Aussie and US friends who were excruciatingly loud at breakfast, apparently believing the entire dining area of two rooms wanted to hear their conversation. It was literally unbearable sitting next to them. The lack of courtesy & consideration was astonishing and this was not a young group who were unaware of their behavior, these were older couples!

    We booked two rooms here for a family stay, a junior suite and prestige room both in main building and knew in advance that the rooms are on the smaller size, esp compared to US hotel rooms. But both worked for us and not only are the rooms quite beautifully furnished in an ornate Venetian style, they are immaculate and quite functional. We loved everything about this hotel -- the friendly helpful staff at reception and in the restaurant/bar, the superb location, and that it is a small boutique hotel. Our college age kids met us there arriving via ferry from Croatia then a water bus and were able to access their room early and get some rest, while took a water taxi from the airport which is a wonderful way to arrive into Venice and to the hotel. Breakfast was excellent, bed and rooms are comfortable and hotel organized a porter to help with our luggage to the train station as the walk involves steep stairs up and down a bridge. Tourist trap restaurants abound so do your research in advance in order to avoid as there are also wonderful gems where locals dine. Hotel location right on the canal is wonderful and walkable to all the major sights but far enough away that it is quiet. Highly recommend.

    The staff was very friendly and helpful. They even offered to take us to different islands. They made a birthday cake for my wife (I didn't even ask for that). The beds were comfortable, the view was amazing, the breakfast was delicious, the location was perfect and it was quiet and peaceful. Definitely loved it!

    The mattress on the bed is divided into two parts, which makes it a bit uncomfortable to sleep in the middle. However, the bed itself is large and comfortable.

    Very quiet neighborhood, but right on the canal, with its own café, and just 5 minutes from the station. No tourists or noise — you truly feel like a local. Very cozy rooms and the best staff ever. They helped us organize our entire tour, recommended and reserved all the restaurants. My husband celebrated his birthday, and they surprised us with a cake

    We had a wonderful stay! Location was great - short walk from the train station, on the main canal. It was tucked away, so did not feel crowded at all. Check-in was quick, and our room was ready on time. We had a nice room on the main floor, with a small patio / garden area. Decor in the room was very nice ! Beds were comfortable. Breakfast was very nice. At checkout, the team was very happy to store our bags until our departure later in the day. Very pleasant experience!
