I stayed there when they had the floods. It’s more of a Bed And Breakfast than a hotel, which has its advantages. Here is my honest review. Pros- GREAT staff, normally 1 or 2 during day. Very helpful!!!! Breakfast was simple, but good. Location was excellent!!!! Older furniture that matches the decor and charming. Shared bathroom was not an issue. Same as a house. CLEAN Very quiet location Cons When the staff is not there sometimes during the day and not at night, you have no access to the small dining room. So if you are wanting to go in and relax while reading the paper or laptop, you can’t. And there’s not a typical lobby to sit down in. So your room is the only option. No TVs. To me this wasn’t necessarily an issue. I normally went for a run in the morning, came back, cleaned up, and I was gone for the day. To end, I enjoyed my stay. The staff, cleanliness and location were the key points that I normally look for.

This hotel has previously been advertised as providing AC in the amenities listed. So naturally, when I stayed here, I was under the impression there would be AC, but when I arrived I found out that there was not. It is EXTREMELY HOT, even with a fan. I do not recommend unless you are accustomed to no AC. I have elevated this to several unhelpful members of Expedia’s staff, who did not offer any solution. Keep in mind that Expedia has no interest in ensuring that you have a good experience, as their lack of service recovery has been disappointing. They did remove AC from the amenities, but have refused to make it right otherwise. We’ll NEVER book through Expedia again.

Lovely Little Hotel Near San Marco and Rialto

Venice was quite hot and consequently the lack of AC made it difficult to sleep even with the overhead ceiling fan. Hotel is lovely and at a quite reasonable price point for it's location. If you book, get detailed information about how to best access the hotel including precise directions via landmarks. It is a great location but difficult to find by Google Maps or other maps. Take water us from train station to Rialto.... it's well worth it. Easy 5 minute walk from there with suitcase trolly with no bridges to negotiate. Breakfast was simple but adequate with coffee or cappuccino offered.. with croissants, fruit, juice and hard boiled eggs...and traditional Italian fair....Hosts we're very helpful and accommodating.

Value for money hotel at a great location

Locanda Casa Petrarca is located in Rialto. It is so convenient walking distance to Saint Marco and Accademia. The host upgraded our room to a deluxe room with a canal view which is a rare bonus. The room is very clean and spacious. The host is very accommodating and cook scramble eggs for us which was not on the breakfast menu. Staff is very friendly. I will definitely recommend my friends to stay at this hotel. Value for money.

The property is small, but clean, modernized (with an elevator if needed) and very nice given it is located in such an ancient building. In the picture below the sign is a canal with gondolas going past! The location is fantastic-a short walk to St. Mark's square or Rialto Bridge, where the water taxi will take you directly to the airport. Valentina was very nice and provided us with everything we needed, including a very nice breakfast. When we left for the airport, we forgot our passports, Valentina arranged to have someone bring them to the airport. Superb visit and place, would go back tomorrow!

Wonderful service at a lovely, central hotel

I was hesitant about this hotel, but ended up loving it. We had a room with a shared bathroom, which is not usually so comfortable. But the price and location were great, so we decided to go for it and put up with a mediocre hotel stay. Valentina and her team completely turned our expectations around! Their level of service made our stay exceptionally wonderful. The room we were staying in was old fashioned, but lovely. Breakfast was delicious. We’re early birds and often ended up missing breakfast some days because we wanted to use our mornings to explore, so one time the staff actually made us a to-go bag with juice and water, and made sure we had some croissants and sandwiches to take with us! It was such a sweet gesture and really made our day. The location is also incredible. If you go one way, you hit Rialto Bridge in 3-5 minutes. If you go the other way, you’re in San Marco Square. It really could not be better. The bottom line is – this is a great hotel for travelers on a budget. Sure, it’s not the most fancy option possible – the walls are a little thin so it can be loud (but we had considerate neighbors so it was okay), of course having to share a bathroom is not so great (but you can book a private room if that’s a big problem), and maybe the furniture is not luxurious (who cares, really). If you want luxury, maybe a more expensive hotel is better. But for the price and location, plus the level of service, I doubt you can find a better option.

This hotel is in a great location - a few minutes walk from Saint Marks square and the Academia bridge. It was easy to access from the Rialto ferry stop and our room opened onto a canal which was amazing. Breakfast was nice and the room was very clean. Our hostess pointed out all the best sights and gave us a map. Great hotel for the price point.

Fabulous location within short walking distance of all the main attractions of beautiful Venice, our room had everything we needed and sharing a bathroom was not a problem. The fantastic breakfast each morning was a treat and set us up for the day. Valentina and Stefano welcomed us warmly to their hotel and recommended some great places to visit and local restaurants to have our evening meal. We had a lovely time and would return to the Locanda Casa Petrarca again without hesitation.

What a find in Venice.

We found this little Guest House (Inn) on Hotels.com. What A Find. A few minutes walk from Rialto, a few minutes from St Marks, close to everything. The service was fantastic, and Valentina and her couldn't have been more helpful. We arrived late, after they had already left, and there was cold water in the fridge in our room. Out the next day, back to the room being stopless and beds made. Breakfast is continental style, and I saw reviews saying it was small. Well just ask, and you got what you wanted. Breakfast starts at 8am, but as we were leaving around that time, they opened 30 minutes early so we could eat a On the orange line back to the airport this morning, and realised I had left my charger. Again, no trouble, just " give me your home address, and I'll post to you". Highly recommend this to anyone. Only really small downside, was that due to the restricted space, there was no sofa / lounge area to chill when back, however, if the choice was an extra room for income and a lounge,I would also choose to have the extra room. Great little place, and so very welcoming.

Great staff, great location, great place!

I wanted to take my parents to Venice during our European trip. While the weather was cold from the snow (which I enjoyed), the location was very nice and exceeded my expectations. The manager Valentina was very helpful in providing us tips and suggestions (listen to her!!!). The breakfast provided was great to get us through the day and ready for an early dinner. You are centrally located between the Rialto and San Marco Square which I thought was great. If you are bringing heavy luggage, I recommend using their porter service (try to negotiate pricing). If you can, try to upgrade to the Superior room. You get a nice view of the canal and your own bathroom. All in all, Valentina and the staff made it a very great experience and the cleanliness and helpfulness is what is motivating me to write this review.

Close to everything we needed.

Only spent 3 days here but could have spent much more. The staff was very helpful and great with directions, which we really needed. On the day we departed they called a porter for us. I'm not going to say the room was spacious but we didn't need much more. The hotel was full but there were only 7 rooms so we had a slight wait for breakfast. One suggestion if going to Venice. Bring something on your phone that will give directions because you are going to get lost.
