“This is a small, quiet, and cosy place, conveniently located near many restaurants and shops in the heart of Venice. Be prepared for a climb, though, as there are steep stairs to reach the lobby, but the charm and helpful concierge make it worthwhile. The rooms are clean and have air conditioning, and the hotel provides recommendations for places to eat and directions.”

Our recently renovated room overlooked the canal. We waved at gondolas from our window. The high ceilings and decor were unbeatable.

poor sound insulationmorning noise

i could hear other guests very clearly, especially in the morning. it was difficult to sleep in, and it disrupted my stay a bit. the noise was a significant drawback, and the sound insulation needs improvement. i think quiet hours should be implemented (or enforced).

The hotel provided a map with marked points of interest. The staff gave recommendations for local restaurants. I found this very helpful. There was coffee available in my room.

walking routeslocal restaurants

Tiziano provided maps with specific walking routes. These routes helped me experience main attractions and hidden gems. He gave us excellent tips about local restaurants. The restaurant choices resulted in superb dining experiences. This also helped me avoid tourist traps. I enjoyed great food at reasonable prices.

The stairs up to the lobby are steep. This could be difficult with heavy luggage.
