Excellent boutique hotel in an amazing location! Only 5 minutes to Saint Mark’s Square, and in the opposite direction 5 minutes to the Rialto Bridge. This hotel is incredibly clean and has wonderful staff.
Beautiful hotel in the perfect central location to all the main attractions. I would recommend to pack light as its a 5-10 min walk from the ferry terminal and there is no lift in the hotel. Staff were lovely and I would definitely recommend this hotel to friends

Liked: Staff & service
The front desk staff was great luggage storage is available but not really secure. The initial room we checked into smell of smoke and the staff was quick to change our room. Please note this hotel does not have a lift, any large suitcases, you’ll be lugging it up and down the narrow staircase.
Location of this hotel is very convenient to Rialto water taxi and easy to find. Also very close to St. Mark’s square. Lots of wonderful shopping and restaurant choices all around. Rooms comfortable, had a lovely canal view. Staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was wonderful.

Great Air Conditioning! Bathroom in our room was snug but functional. The location is beautiful right between Pont Rialto and Piazza San Marco.
Awesome location, literally we were 2 min away from all the good attractions in Venice. Would definitely come back there. The team treated us super nicely and everything was perfect every day.
