- Area description
- This hotel is located in the heart of Venice, just a stroll from St. Mark's Square and Rialto Bridge, but has a calm, secluded position despite the large number of tourists.

The Renaissance style Santa Maria Formosa church, with its baroque bell tower, gets its name from the appearance of The Blessed Virgin in the form of a "formosa" or shapely, beautiful woman.The same area hosts the prestigious Querini Stampalia Foundation, with its rich and much-used public library and a considerable gallery of three-hundred paintings by artists from Veneto, including G. Bella, Palma il Giovane, Palma il Vecchio, G. Bellini, P. Longhi.

Overbooked downgrade with no compensatio
They overbooked and relocated me to another hotel, but with extremely bad condition. The room was dirty, had to share a bathroom with other people (in my original booking it was a single room with private bathroom). While the hotel rate was some $220/night, the room they relocated us was more like a hostel that cost no more than $40.

Good deal, especially in off season
Once we found the hotel and got used to the idea of shared bathroom, and some of the noise from the kitchen in the morning, we appreciated the people, the location,and the price paid.

Short walk from hotel
Get a good map to find the hotel upon arriving with the vaporette - the hotel map is not the best.

Spotless hideaway in central location
I was pleasantly surprised from the moment I arrived with the friendly, yet non-overbearing staff, impeccable cleanliness and central, quiet location in the city. Even though I had a shared bathroom and all the rooms surrounded a common sitting/breakfast area, the accommodations were very comfortable and staff made sure that all requests were met with a smile and then double-checked to see if I remained satisfied. They even provided free internet service so I could stay in touch w/email! Continental breakfast was very hearty... would definitely recommend!!!

Short walk from hotel
Location was a real time saver to all various areas of interest. The S.Zaccaria water bus stop was the hub to all points of departure and everything was within walking distance, especially the Venice Biennale sites! Check out the Herby botanical products shop on the corner.. wonderful and aromatic.

リアルト橋、サン・マルコ、サン・ザッカリアの船着場に中心分に
リアルト橋、サン・マルコ、サン・ザッカリアの船着場に中心分にあり、徒歩10分程度。滞在型の徒歩観光に向いている。糺、管理人が常駐鬱していないので、ようちゅうい。
