Perfect location
Pros:

Excellent location only a few minutes walk from St Marks square / Doges Palace / Correr museum etc.
Rialto water bus stop is right outside.
Bedroom and shower room was very clean.
The hotel room decor is in the Venetian style.
Receptionists were all very friendly and extremely helpful.
Breakfast was great.
Perfect hotel for a city break with shops, bars and restaurants close by.
Classic Room:-
*Pillow was too firm - just about bearable.
*Extra blanket was in the linen box in the room - if needed.
* USB port on the dressing table

Second stay at this Hotel, perfect location, clean rooms
Pros:

My second stay at this hotel as a solo female traveller. I stayed at the Ca’ Rialto room 502. Everything was very clean and the shower water pressure is excellent.
I asked for extra pillows for the bed and room slippers which were provided with no issue.
I like the fact with the Ca’ Rialto that you don’t have to go through the reception to enter and exit the building. It has its own separate entrance.
Room was quiet and served its purpose. This is my go-to Hotel when I visit Venice. It is also very competitively priced. Superb location for the Ali Laguna transfer straight to the airport and from this hotel you can walk pretty much everywhere.
I have breakfast at the nearby cafe `Rosa Salva, just in front of the San Salvador church, and lunch/dinner at Rosticceria Gislon which is also very close by.
Thank you for another wonderful stay.

A great stay in Venice
Pros:

Fantastic location with easy access to all major attractions. Generous size rooms that were clean. Breakfast in the morning had a great selection to choose from with the staff very attentive to make sure things never ran out. The front desk staff were very efficient and friendly and were always willing to assist. We would stay here again

Pros:

Its a pretty old hotel. Very good location, easy to get to from the train station. But the bathrooms were old, had a lot of mold in the shower area. There was a lot of disturbance from the streets, very noisy around 4 am in the morning. This hotel is definitely not worth the price.

Pros:

Italian people are not quiet, the room we had was on first floor and evenings and early mornings were extremely loud even with the window closed it sounded like they were yelling at each other setting up the stalls beside the hotel, desk stafff and restaurant staff were all amazing and very informative of the area for transportation and food suggestions

Pros:

It’s an older property that appears to be maintained nicely. The hotel boasts of “having a unique experience” when staying here. They are correct. It is very unique especially if you are accustomed to modern-looking hotels. The bathroom is modern, but tiny and the furniture reminds me of a doll house from my youth.

Look Elsewhere...
Pros:

Awesome location! There you go, that's my 1 plus. Yes, Venice is old but this hotel I think was last updated when Venice was founded! Very rundown inside (don't let the pics of the exterior fool you like it did me!), seriously outdated. Rundown carpet, tiny bathroom. No outlets (had to get an extension cord to plug into the bathroom just to charge my phone) in the walls or around the bed. Had to take the elevator up 2 floors & then carry my bags up 2 more flights of stairs!! Bed was seriously uncomfortable. Breakfast was ok. If location is all you're concerned with, enjoy your stay. But if you want anything like modern conveniences then look AND BOOK elsewhere!

Pros:

The roof top terrace is wonderful with an amazing view. A great place to relax and take in the atmosphere. The staff was great, accommodating and friendly. I was a little disappointed by the room itself, not a lot of space or place to open up luggage. The view from our window was a creepy back lane. The hotel itself was very strange.. stairs going up and down and all around.. there was no straight shot to your room. I have never experience anything like it. Definitely NOT a place for anyone with mobility issues. It was convenient to walk out the door on walk and have dining and shopping right there.

Pros:

The hotel is right next to the Rialto Bridge so you can't get any closer. The views from our room were spectacular. The staff was excellent and there are restaurants and shops walking distance from the hotel. Will stay here again.

Don’t recommend. Find a better hotel! There are plenty of good ones!
Pros:

Not a horrible place. The location is central (far from the train but central to the surrounding things to do). The breakfast was very good. The hotel room was old, shower was tiny, and bed was uncomfortable. I know it’s an old city! But the carpet on the floor, the fabric walls, etc made it seem dusty and just not great when sharing a space with a previous guest. The worst part was the bellhop carried our bags down the hall and then opened his hand for a tip. My husband had €20 so he asked if the bellhop had change. He came back with 2 €10. Boy.. you did that on purpose but €10 for walking our bags 20ft is a bit much!!! He got his €10 but it felt super slimy and weird. We have yet to have that experience in the other hotels we stayed at! This was the worst hotel in the four cities we stayed at in Italy. If it wasn’t for location and breakfast I would give this place 2/5. I wouldn’t recommend. I’d find a better hotel. There are so many to choose from in Venice!

Pros:

Really great place to enjoy Venice for a couple of days. The hotel has a vaporetto stop just outside the front door. Its location is immediately next to the Rialto bridge, and is close to everything. The staff were very knowledgable and helpful. One fella on the front desk was a little “gruff”, but not enough too put a damper on things. The room was a little dated / historical. The bathroom had been recently renovated . While the area outside is very busy, it was surprisingly quiet inside, a good endorsement for the quality of the windows and shutters. We also enjoyed the panoramic terrace a couple of times to have a drink and “people watch”

Loved the location. Breakfast was cold and beds were hard and not comfortable. Elevator was also out of service while we stayed there.
