Hotel Casa Petrarca  

- Location is great - The place is very simple, clean e friendly - Owners are attentive

- the bedroom is very small. There are other rooms that seem to be larger and is not necessary to share the bathroom

location; staff; breakfast included

small room; no television, radio or clock; window blocked by construction tarps so room was dark

very good staff,good location,clean.

140euro is a little expensive for a 10 m2 basic room even its venice.

Staff were so lovely and helpful and obviously love what they do. There is a lovely authentic Venetian feel to the place, definitely like staying in someones home. It is located down a very quiet street but yet so close to the madness of St Marks Square. If you want to be close to everything then it is a great place from which to explore.

The hotel is good value for money (for Venice, which is not cheap). Its location is absolutely first rate and we will not hesitate to recommend it to our friends.

The scaffolding that builders had left outside our room. We understand the hotel is trying to get rid of this problem, but it does make at least one of the rooms very dark.

Shared toilet to far away and had to walk past everybody who was having breakfast. Shared toilet was with 5 other rooms not 1 other room. Very small room and very little breakfast. More for backpackers.

Casa Petrarca was a wonderful place to stay in beautiful Venezia! The location is hard to beat in my opinion, less that 5 minutes to Piazza San Marco, 10 minutes to the Rialto bridge. The room was small but very comfortable and clean, though next time we would probably opt for a room with a ensuite bathroom. The breakfast was delicious, fresh fruit, amazing croissants, assorted meats and cheese, yogurt etc., and the dining room is so picturesque, above a canal. The owners were so friendly and helpful as well. We would stay here again!

Service, service, service! I thought this hotel was a little pricey for what we got (room-wise), but the service was outstanding. I can honestly say that the coffee & croissants they served were the BEST I've ever tasted, and that includes in Paris. The breakfast room is quite small, but they really make sure you have everything you want, from juice, coffee, toast, fruit, yogurt, etc. to fresh-baked croissants and pastries. Really felt very welcomed and appreciated as a guest. We were given helpful advice & suggestions for what to do to make the most of our visit, including restaurant recommendations. Really impressed with the level of attention given to us during our visit. Would absolutely go back and recommend to anyone.

The room was a bit small and I didn't like the shower much, due to its tiny size. The window in my room opened to face a wall, which wasn't very nice - other than that, it was fine. A bit tough to find on the first visit, but after that, I thought the location was ideal.

The location was fantastic, between San Marco square and Rialto bridge, but still a quiet lane. The proprietor Valentina was very welcoming and gave us good advice about the locality. Breakfast was in a small cute dining area, adequate. Would stay there again.

It's a simple hotel with simple room but it's very well located; the staff is very nice and attentive (they got in touch and explained how to get to the hotel, once finding your way in Venice is not so easy to whom is going for the first time!); good breakfast

Superb location - easy to find when following the detailed email instructions given to us by the owners when booking. Breakfast - simple but filling for the day's sightseeing ahead. Service - Never too much trouble for the owners to help guests out with directions, recommendations and other issues.

Nothing specific. If I went back, I wouldn't book a room with a shared bathroom but that is simply down to personal preference. As it stands, however, it is good value for money. Therefore, if you're on a budget and happy enough, I'd have no qualms recommending it.

Location betrween St Mark's Square and the Rialto Bridge. Very friendly and helpful staff. Good breakfast. Clean. Helpful instructions about reaching the hotel.

Nothing to dislike.

Friendly, helpful staff, who gave us excellent tips on where to dine and provided us with a map when we arrived. The location is fantastic and our room had a great view of a pretty little bridge over a canal. Quiet, traditionally decorated rooms at an excellent value and a good, traditional Italian breakfast.

Nothing! It was great!

Great family run hotel for a budget stay. The staff were excellent and very attentive. We were given tips on things to do, places to eat and he best place to take a gondola ride! Not to mention excellent location, 5 minutes from all the main tourist sites, water taxis and convenient to get to from the airport.

Can't really complain but if there was something, the showers were not that great. Took a while for the hot water to come and was weak.

Staff was very helpfull starting from the beginning of our vacation. They showed us where to go, how to go, where to eat and all necessary information. Location is very good, it's 3 minutes to S. Marco and 5 minutes to Rialto Bridge by walk. Rooms were clean and also big enough.

Owner is very kindl and breakfast was also really grrreat! Perfact location is the greatest point. 3minutes on foot from St Marc. Wi-fi is working well, as well.

It was very well located. Hotel is 2-5 munites to main square and the most of the main streams. Staff was very friendly, they helped us a lot.

Location is excellent. Very close so St. Marco square.

Difficult to find. It is hidden between a narrow street.

The location was great. It was small an intimate. They provided a really nice atmosphere and a good breakfast. The owner/staff were first rate and friendly. I would advise anyone to stay there unless they have the cash to spend on a five star hotel.

Wonderful people,great service,excellent location...our stay was fantastic

It was central and very breasonably priced

Difficult to find

It is located perfectly, close to major sites, but in a quaint out of the way spot. Also, Valentina and Stefano were delightful, warm, helpful, and a pleasure to be around. They made you feel at home.

Rooms were very small, even by Italy standards.

The staff were very friendly, breakfast was included and every room has en suite facilities. The location was excellent, the hotel is in the centre of eveything!

Fantastic staff. Valentina was incredibly helpful.

The location of the hotel is 5 star, close to all city's points of interest. The breakfast - in particular the coffee was very delicious. The staff hotels were very nice and friendly, they were all ready to help in case you need it.

The wifi connection was rather ppor, you must go to the public area in order to stay connected.
