Excellent location at foot of Rialto bridge + 25m from water-bus stop. Excellent helpful staff. Clean. Good-size room. Special thanks to front desk staff SEP-4 afternoon for rebooking train despite rail strike thereby avoiding a disasterous + expensive impact to our holiday.

Location perfect, room fantastic, breakfast very poor

Needed more electrical sockets. There was just one. A kettle would have been nice to make coffees in the room

Location. Staff who were very attentive. Air conditioning. Complimentary water taxi to the island of Murano which was a nice surprise. It runs every half an hour. Fabulous view from our windows as we chose to pay a little extra for a canal view. Well worth it as it was so entertaining to watch the busy canal in operation.

Surely staff are aware that the first room they gave us was a dud :(( Annoying that we had to pack up and move and then porter waited around for a tip even though this was our second move. I would advise to do water taxi to get to hotel with luggage.

The first room they gave us 308 had the air conditioning blowing straight onto us in bed and I awoke with a terrible cold. Next room they moved us to was a dream compared to the other. Nice bathroom and amenities. Great location and staff thankfully understood about the room.

Not enough wall plugs/usb ports. Shower is tiny.

Great location on Grand Canal steps from Rialto Bridge.

Door lock was broken and not safe and the safety deposit box was broken too. It made me uneasy to go out, especially when it did not get fixed after contacting reception.

The central position of the Hotel and view over the Rialto Bridge is superb.

Even the things that I didn’t necessarily like, kind of added to the charm of the place. My room was tiny, but functional and I wouldn’t want to change it, it was so cute. The bathrooms are like beautiful and obviously remodeled from the original. The shower is very narrow. Like I didn’t half to but it was more comfortable to stand sideways while showering! Another thing to note… again it added to the charm;) my room was on the fourth floor. So I wouldn’t take the elevator up and then I walked down a hall and down a steep set of stairs and then to my room. Which made it feel like I should just be on the third floor, but no access to the room from the third floor. So not all rooms are accessible with out navigating some stairs. They had a bell hop who brought my bags up to the room for me and probably would have helped me take them out too if I asked.

Perfect location, easy to get to and to get to everywhere else. My room overlooked the bridge and river! Stunning views. Also… excellent AC which was so appreciated during the hot hot days. All the staff are super friendly and helpful and remember who you are. Everything about this place is charming. Also is in such a busy area and I heard no sound from the street unless I opened the window. The wall paper is old school and cool and like the walls feel padded, which I think helped with the sound. I think I heard my neighbors door close twice and that was it.

The bed and pillows were not the best. The bathrooms were poor especially in one of our two rooms where it was also so small and badly repaired and maintained with a very dated 1970's style makeover. I know the hotel is very old but that is no excuse as friends we were travelling with stayed at a boutique hotel across from us on the Grand Canal which was as old but had recently been fully and beautifully renovated and was about half the price,

The location of the hotel as well as our rooms at the front of the hotel and the view from our two rooms. However, this was reflected in the price as without that the rooms themselves were not worth anywhere near what we paid.

The location and the staff

Stayed in August 2025

The rooms are in urgent need to be updated. The hotel layout is not convenient The property has so many floors and mid floors and sooooo many stairs. You can take an elevator to a floor, but then still has to go 2 flights of stairs up or down to your room. You are not allowed to use electrical equipment with more than 500W in your room. Which means no iron, no hair utensils of more than 500W, etc

The location is stunning. One of the best views in Venice. Staff was wonderful.

The rooms are pretty small, and dated. Our room didn't really have any natural light, as it was a side room and the windows had metal shutters.

You can't get a better location than Hotel Rialto. It's in the heart of the city, and an easy walk to most of the main attractions. The area is definitely crowded, but we personally like the lively atmosphere. The breakfast was great, with seating right in front of the Rialto bridge.

The location was fantastic! The staff were exceptionally polite and I enjoyed the key return feature for added security.

The only thing that I think could be improved is that the section we stayed in could use some fresh paint and a few repairs but the room was good and had a fantastic view of the canal.

The hotel was centrally located so we were able to walk to everything. There are restaurants located right outside the door so you don’t have to go far to find food.
