Great hotel and service! The rooms were very nice, well-made and maintained, with great daily cleaning service. The breakfast was also very good and the bar served great drinks. The location of the hotel was also very convenient, central but in a quiet area of the city. All the staff was consistently very polite and helpful throughout our stay. I combined work and leisure and it was a perfect place to stay. Thank you!

I LOVED this hotel. I stayed closer to St. Marks earlier in my trip and was delighted to spend my last night in Venice here. Immediately, the service I experienced at check-in was superb. The room was beautiful and large. The area surrounding the hotel quiet and lovely. I only wish I had more time at this hotel.

Nice, clean, small hotel with friendly staff. However, they have a major mosquito problem. The AC in my room didn’t work and it was 24/25 at night and nothing did with the AC worked. So I opened the window as it was quite cool out, even blocking with the curtain, but I was bombarded by mosquitos. I woke up with probably 50-60 mosquito bites all over my face, neck, and arms. Not to mention these guys constantly buzzing around me at night. I closed the window quickly but by then they were inside and constantly buzzing around. All in all slept horribly for 2 nights and now have a million mosquito bites…. In November….
