Top Venice Hotel Reviews

Hotel Rialto

Hotel Rialto

8/10 Good
"Excellent location for a first time visitor. Located right at the Rialto Bridge, you’re steps away from the vaporetto to the airport or train station. You can easily walk to anywhere in the main neighborhoods as the hotel is so centrally located. Breakfast options were limited, but the coffee and pastries were excellent. The staff was helpful and kind. Would stay here again."
