9/10 Wonderful! (1,001 reviews)

I booked this hotel because I found it in a list of family friendly hotels in Venice. We needed two rooms for our large family. Unfortunately they weren't adjoining but they were on the same floor and just two rooms apart. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The front desk staff was very helpful with recommendations in the area. They had a nice assortment of items for breakfast in the morning also. The location was super convenient to visit Doge's Palace and St Marks. Also convenient to a vaporetto stop.
