Hotel Guerrato

10/10 Excellent

"Nice spacious rooms, great location"

Hotel Cavalletto e Doge Orseolo

8/10 Good

"Our room was absolutely beautiful overlooking canal and gondolas- but ac wasn’t working it was hot - they kindly offered us another room but without the same beautiful view - so we declined - they brought us a fan which helped a ton ! Great location and staff was super nice - only complaint they were redoing room next to us and loud workers as we were trying to take a nap"

Palazzo San Luca

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent clean and conveniently located air conditioned hotel with cheerful, helpful staff. As it was our first time to Venice we particularly appreciated being met at the airport and assisted by Francesca. Be aware that in Italy when you’re on the 3rd floor that’s North American 4th and there is no elevator. Francesca carried our bags up and the daily trips up and down certainly strengthened our legs! Would definitely recommend this hotel."

Venezia Palazzo Barocci

10/10 Excellent

"First day there, no hot water for shower. Had choice to take a shower in another room or pack up everything and take another room. We did the latter which was a big waste of time. Find out they knew of the problem prior day yet they still gave us the room. Location was ideal. Breakfast was first class. Check shower before you unpack."

Duodo Palace Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"**Charming historic gem in the heart of Venice** Staying at Hotel Duodo felt like stepping into old Venice. The building is historic and full of character, and the interiors are beautifully decorated with real attention to detail. Every corner feels elegant and warm, exactly what you hope for in a Venetian hotel. The staff were wonderful. They were kind, helpful, and welcoming from the moment we arrived, and they made our stay feel easy and personal. The location is the hotel's biggest strength. Piazza San Marco is just a short walk away, and you're surrounded by shops, cafés, and restaurants. Almost everything we wanted to see was within walking distance, which made exploring the city a pleasure. It's a great base for first-time visitors. A few things to know before booking: breakfast isn't included and costs about €20, so you may prefer to try one of the many cafés nearby. The hotel isn't right at the water taxi stop or the train station, so plan for a walk with your luggage when you arrive. The rooms also don't have blackout curtains or dark blinds, and it gets very bright early in the morning. Light sleepers should bring an eye mask. Overall, Hotel Duodo is a lovely, centrally located hotel with beautiful décor, plenty of charm, and excellent service. The small inconveniences are easy to manage, and I would happily stay here again on my next trip to Venice."
