A really great Venice hotel
Pros:

The property is well cared for, clean and organized. There is an organic produce stand a few doors down and the hotel serves a full breakfast every morning. It’s charming and quaint in a tasteful way. The staff helped me get to know the WaterBus system which is essential for getting around Venice efficiently. Staff also helped me research and schedule a train ride to Padua. So kind and helpful!

Cons:

Nothing displeased me.

Historic stay
Pros:

Nice location, though not on the main canal it was still accessible and close to several places we visited. Our gondolier even pointed it out by name on our tour as the most historic hotel! The staff was wildly kind and helpful. We were only in one night but I'm sure we would have enjoyed staying longer.

Pros:

Kleines aber feines Haus. Angenehm ruhig in Dorsoduro und trotzdem einfach zu erreichen. Zu Fuß vom Bahnhof in 20 Minuten. Per Vaporetto Station Ca' Rezzonico sehr bequem ohne Treppen. Die Gegend ist geprägt von feiner, charaktervollen Authentizität. Tag und Nacht sehr freundlich an der Rezeption. Kompetente Beratung und Service. Signore Mauro kennt sich aus! Zimmer sehr schön eingerichtet. Frühstücksbuffet nicht riesig, aber vollkommen ausreichend. Qualität frisch und gut.
Wir würden jederzeit wieder gerne kommen!
Inklusivservice: Führung und Vorführung auf Murano Mocenigo Glass Factory klappte prima und war sehr interessant!
Vielen Dank für alles!
