Incredible location, room size, and amenities for the price. We also experienced wonderful customer service from all staff, particularly the guys at the front desk who helped us out with our airport transfer. Thank you!

This was our second trip to Venice and our first as fully self sufficient adults. The Hotel Colombina is perfectly situated just a two minute walk from Piazza San Marco. It is close enough for a quick, early morning jaunt to St. Mark's square for breakfast but just far enough away to be serene and quiet. We had a canal view room which was absolutely lovely. The high ceilings, exquisite Murano glass chandelier, classic Venetian wall coverings , and classically styled furniture create the perfect ambiance for a romantic stay in the most magical city in the world. We spent three weeks traveling throughout western Europe, and this was, by far the best accommodation for the money that we experienced

Hotel Columbia is in an absolutely perfect spot, away from the crowded streets of San Marco, but close enough to walk to the hot spots in five minutes. It rests on a canal with a view of the bridge of sighs and plenty of restaurants close by. We really enjoyed our stay here! The only issue was that there was some mold in the room and water from the shower seemed to seep through the wall into the area with the bedroom. I know that this is an old city built on water but it may be something to look at. The staff was wonderful and the live music on Thursday evening was lovely. We got loaded on drinks and linked up with some Americans and Brits. We enjoyed yelling Bona Cera to every boat that passed by.. The front desk called us a private water taxi to the train station which picked us up on the canal, it was great!
