Excellent
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Room door was a bit suspicious regarding locking mechanism. “Do Not Disturb” light kept switching off. Unable to control AC/Fan due to overtaking building temperature control. Room felt stuffy at times and had to open windows with screaming children in the courtyard. Often times we could hear dishes clanking as there was a kitchen downstairs.
Bathtub/shower had mold and multiple cracks. Felt uncomfortable showering in the restroom.
Walls are lined with fabric and they are noticeably dirty.
Our room was extremely large which allowed great space for luggage and lounging. Hôtel was in great distance of restaurants and cafes. It was also very close to popular attractions.
As soon as we checked the bed, there was hair all over every blanket and sheet. There was stains on sheets and yellow stains on matress cover. We asked if we could get the sheets changed, they asked us to leave so they could change the sheets. We left, came back 4 hours later.. they only changes the top blabkets without changing the stained sheets. I had to reauest more clean sheets so that i could do ut myself.
The property was in a great location, surrounded by tourist attractions and great restaurants.
The staff where friendly and you could leave your bag on the last day of travel before going to the airport.
Would stay again
Perfect location; short and easy walk from San Zaccaria waterbus stop (no bridges to cross), then 5-10 minute walk to San Marco and 10-15 minute walk to Rialto.
Plenty of restaurants and shops locally.
Nice and clean hotel with big rooms and very clean.
Friendly staff.
Recommended for mid-price in Venice.
The room was clean, comfortable and decorated to have a nice classy feel. Loved the jacuzzi. The staff at the restaurant were very nice and took good care of us at meal time. Location is excellent, right on gondola row and close to St. Mark Square. Not a dock at the hotel but only 4-5 minutes walk from the dock.
Average hotel overall.
Overpriced due to its location - biggest advantage. Interior is old fashioned Venician style- not my favorite, but spacious. Service - did not feel it at all
Au Principi was amazing, very nice central location, beautiful rooms, great restaurant along the water(highly recommend) and philippe did his all to make sure we had all we needed. 10/10
Great location. Quiet at night but durning the day we had the first floor room and the kitchen staff sounded like they were in the room. The Shower took a little to figure out but once we did it was fine
Staff we helpful. perfect place location wise
we suggest not getting a room on the ground floor
Walking distance to all main attractions. Far from the hustle and bustle when you need a break.

This was in an unexpected location and a good bit of a walk from the primary ferry terminals. Not a problem if you know what you're getting into. I expected to be able to be dropped off right at the door but it's not accessible by the private water taxis. Family of 5 with 3 weeks worth of luggage was a spectacle. Turns out that it's a nice quiet location and reasonably close to activity but you can get out of it as well. I would likely stay again now knowing what i'm getting into but probably not with a family of 5. Room is small - even in the 5 bed suite but a nice place overall and super friendly staff - i simply had a different set of expectations going in and it was rather off and VERY pricy for the room.
