Stay here if you can!!!

Hotel Al Ponte Antico was outstanding. The service by all of the staff and owners was first rate. It was like staying with family friends. The hotel is perfectly located just 5 minutes walk from everything in Venice. We picked the hotel for the bar and breakfast room and we were so impressed. Our stay was like having a palace all to ourselves with assistance from the most passionate hosts you will ever meet in the hospitality industry. We highly recommend the hotel. The balcony over looking the Rialto Bridge and Grand Canal was truly fabulous.

You should stay here. We have never been at a hotel that made us feel more at home. Our stay at Hotel Al Ponte Antico was magnificent. The owners and staff of this hotel went out of there way to make us as comfortable as possible as well as removing much of the stress that comes with travel. They were the perfect hosts. The hotel is beautiful. The location is perfect, and the food is amazing. We highly recommend staying with them if you are looking for a wonderful experience in Venice.
