"The hotel was in a great location for taking the water taxi and traveling the quick walk from the drop off point. The room was very clean and the staff were sweet and very accommodating. We only wish we had more time to stay and enjoy more sights from this quieter yet central location."

"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."
