2 days of easy walking.
Pros:

Close to the San Marco Tourist area and Gondola services. Can walk most anywhere in short time from this Hotel. Breakfast was good. Staff is helpful and ready to provide service. Water Taxi picks up in front of this hotel.

Cons:

Outside tables for dinning, were absent, maybe they don't support outside dinning, or maybe the space is not good for that kind of setup.

Overall an amazing stay in Venice!
Pros:

This was our 1st time in Venice (2nd time for my spouse. The Staff was super friendly and helpful. The location was excellent, walkable to all the sites and sounds of Venice. Our room was spacious for our family of 4. The breakfast was a highlight, tasty and plentiful, always with a great cappuccino! The drive-up water taxi dock was so cool 😎, very nice touch. No walking with luggage involved at all. Amazing!

Absolut empfehlenswert!
Pros:

Das Frühstück ist ausgezeichnet! Und das Personal ist sehr hilfreich und aufmerksam :)
Mein Zimmer war im Erdgeschoss, aber zu einem Innenhof und insgesamt sehr ruhig, leider nur etwas kühl, weil die Heizungen abgestellt waren.

Perfect stay in Venice for our honeymoon!
Pros:

Everything was amazing! The room was perfect and was easily accessible to the 'main' areas of Venice while feeling like you weren't in a 'tourist' location. Would recommend to any family or friends!

Cons:

Nothing. Everything was perfect!

Dorsoduro dreams
Pros:

Lovely hotel in the more residential Dosoduro area of Venice. Very quiet section,especially at night.
You are around the corner from the Peggy Guggenheim home/ museum. That should give you a sense of the area.

We had a room with a small terrace and it was splendid to sit out there in the late afternoon and watch the gondolas go by or the groceries being delivered by boat.

Pretty room, photos are reasonably accurate, helpful front desk, no real cocktail lounge..

My only suggestion and caveat: the shower floor is slippery. Grab bars are cheap.

Loved it here

A hidden gem!
Pros:

This hotel was excellent. Great location, close to Accademia bridge and Vaporetto station. Moderately priced with a few rooms for 4 people! I booked 3 other hotels before I found this gem! It was exactly what we were looking for! Complimentary breakfast (which was great), modern and large family rooms! I would book this hotel again!

Excellent find. Great staff and great location.
Pros:

Lovely, quiet location but not far to walk to the centre and near the academia bridge. Well worth paying for the rooms with canal view, which also gets the sun on the balcony late afternoon/early evening. Lovely decor and clean throughout. Staff very friendly and attentive. I wasn’t expecting the breakfast to be up to much but it was very good, lots of choice and all very tasty.

Cons:

Bed was a little hard but not overly so. Quiet location but could hear the service vehicles in the morning. I am being over picky here. Overall it was great.
