Great location and wonderful hospitality for a great trip to Venice!
Pros:

The location was excellent - super convenient to vaporetto and walking -
Nice quiet neighborhood, very clean,
Warm attentive staff. Breakfast was good and they offered to prepare things to order.
Also, on our last night I wanted prosciutto and melon, which is not on the bar menu. The chef agreed to prepare it for me and the charge was extremely reasonable.

Cons:

I think that using booking.com, we were placed in one of the lower priced rooms - but the price was lower than booking directly, so… also, many people smoke in the courtyard and the smoke would come right into the room if we left the window open. The gym is pretty small and closes early at night - usually didn’t need it, as we were walking and climbing bridges all day, but seems that they could keep it open longer.

Pros:

A modern and comfortable room inside a traditional Venetian building.

Cons:

Facing the church roof and not the canal is sorrow.

Fabulous stay in Venice
Pros:

Loved the location, so convenient to the vaporetto (and also the traghetto), as well as for exploring the Dorsodouro; the facility is sparkling clean, our room opened onto the courtyard and was so pleasant. The staff went above and beyond to cater to our every desire; the included breakfast was hearty and there was plenty of variety. The dedicated arrival by water taxi was absolutely worth the price; having someone waiting as you get off a long flight, assist with luggage and deposit you into a beautiful Riva water taxi really starts the visit off with a bang. Staff recommendations for dinner were very good, and assistance finding an excellent guide at short notice are very much appreciated. Transfers back to the main train station were equally smooth. We ate dinner one night at the hotel restaurant; the grilled sea bass was cooked to perfection.

Cons:

The bed was quite firm; but I’m sure that if I’d thought to ask for a mattress topper one would have been provided asap.

Very nice location. Staff is great and helpful, always pleasant. Room is great and spacious, breakfast has good selection. Highly recommended! I lived the live music as well in the restaurant at night. Walkable to lots of places or just take water taxi! Will go back again!

Great visit to Venice
Pros:

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Sina Centurion hotel; the staff was the best part of the visit, they were polite, attentive and always available to assist with any question or asks for assistance. The hotel is across from the very busy San Marco area but close enough to either cross over with a gondola or short walk via the Academia bridge. The hotel has a nice small terrace overlooking the grand canal and the food and drinks were very good; we had lunch at dinner at the hotel, both were very good. The rooms are comfortable but Venice sized, comfortable beds and very quiet neighborhood so sleep was very easy. Overall great hotel in a good location made even better by a great staff.
