I stayed at this hotel 25 years ago with Rick Steves travel book recommendation!!
It was awesome to return and we had a wonderful stay. Great staff! And Mr Rossi was fabulous to look up which room was 56 years ago!!
I paid a lot for a very small single room but the location can't be beat of you're spending a lot of time at the Basilica and Dodge's palace like I was.
Don't take their restaurant recommendations. But apart from that, very helpful staff
This is a lovely, very clean hotel. Our room had a beautiful little balcony over a canal where gondolas passed below. Morning breakfast is basic but well done and all we needed to get started for our day. The front desk staff was very helpful and carried our luggage up the stairs for us - despite other reviews that complained about this. Excellent location! Would stay here again!
Very charming however I stayed in the renovated rooms. Had a balcony and lovely room. Staff was excellent. I traveled alone and they were so helpful. The only problem was there is no elevator and I stayed on the 4th floor. I am a senior citizen so it was painful walking up and down all of the stairs.
