    The view from the bar area of the grand canal was fantastic.

    this remains a blank space as everything was perfect.

    Breakfast perfectly presented and served in a magnificent room. Same goes for the hotel restaurant that, with only five tables in an historical room overlooking Canal Grande, gave us one amazing experience in quality of food and service. Worth the trip!

    The air conditioning was limited but understandable within the older building of Venice. The main room was comfortable for sleeping but the living spaces only had fans which helped but couldn't keep up with the hot humid days.

    It was like stepping back in time from the moment you enter through a drawbridge entry when arriving by water taxi. This gorgeous 600 year Venice Palace was well maintained with a few modern amenities. Don't look for a lift here, the amazing porters help with your luggage up the many flights of stairs to your period inspired rooms with updated bathrooms and WiFi. The staff was very friendly and helpful with all my questions and even helped me find my way when I was lost in the confusing streets of Venice.

    My first night wasn’t great, as the AC wasn’t working in my room (August in Venice is as hot as you have been warned it is!!). I was quickly upgraded the next day to a beautiful room with working AC. Great service from the reception team- thank you.

    Incredible views of the Grand Canal (watch the sunset from the balcony of the hotel bar), and a real slice of history: you get a real sense of how the (wealthy!) Venetians lived here. The staff here are all super helpful.

    It could be hard to find as Venice is kind of a labyrinth. For the price, it didn't include breakfast, but there is option to buy separately if you want to have breakfast at the hotel.

    I liked the size of the room and the view to the Grand Canal. The bed was comfy and the room was very very spacious.

    Communication before after and during the booking was excellent very efficient and reassuring. They were able to accommodate our requests giving us the perfect room to suit our needs. Little Aaran is autistic loves to hug and can get very upset when things don’t go his way. The reception was especially patient accommodating and very kind in how they worked with us, never making us feel like an interruption but welcome guests. The breakfast parlour is a lovely experience with the high ceilings; we miss our macchiato in the morning! Not to mention the lovely scrambled eggs the recipe which I now have. The property is historical and much care has been taken to retain its heritage. Very quaint quirky and reminiscent of its pisani heritage. The little touches in the bedroom of various objects adds to the feel of being back in time. Well done to a staff and management to your dedication to presenting this piece of history ever so genuinely with delicate care and loving attention. We miss you all!

    Beautiful old palazetto hotel right in the Grand canal, Venice. Third time we’ve stayed here. Great location near Accademia Bridge. San Stefano plaza with bars and restaurants close by and not too crowded. Spacious suite with coffee machine and minibar. The man on reception was particularly lovely and so helpful as was the barman in the beautiful bar overlooking the canal. The breakfast was well worth having and the breakfast staff ere also very obliging

    - The room definitely doesn't look like the photos on booking. It looks a tier below that. - The bathroom smelt foul, like sewer. Even as soon as we checked in. I assume the pipes and sewage system are a complicated topic in Venice. - A bit of noise at night, from either the ventilation system, or just old things creaking, like furniture and walls/structure. I guess this happens in most hotels in Venice. - No door knob locks on the internal doors of the room or the bathroom.

    - Staff is very kind - Location is decent, A bit far from Train Station but close to many points of interest. A bit far from the best rated restaurants though. - The room is enormous.
