It was the oldest building we had stayed in over our travels across a Paris and Italy! But it was a gem! It was in the third floor with no elevator - however, it was very cool (built in 1659) and not what we were expecting. Just good to relax after walking the streets of Venice all day! Great area and close to San Marco Piazza and all the other attractions - convenient public water bus to the property works well as well given that private water taxis are expensive! Great directions given by the hosts!

Our stay at Hotel San Gallo was perfect. Such friendly and thoughtful staff, some of the best accommodation service we received across all of Italy! Cannot beat the location, very clean, plentiful breakfast served on their rooftop terrace, cute bar in the foyer to enjoy a beverage too. They provided a much appreciated breakfast pack for our early morning flight which was outstanding. Very much recommend staying here. Thank you for a wonderful and memorable stay and experience! :-)

If you are after convenience and want to save time, this hotel is a nice choice. It is only 5 minutes walk from the S. Lucia train station and easy to find. Their staff speak really good English and they gave us an informative introduction upon check in. They are very welcoming and friendly. The room is clean and with new modern decor. The breakfast provides a variety of choices. Overall it’s one of our best experiences staying in Italy during our two week visit there.

We liked everything! It was clean, modern and had the most comfortable beds in all of Italy. All the other beds we had in other locations were very hard. These were much softer and more comfortable. Location is very central to all of Venice. Isabelle was a great host! We got lost finding it and she met us and showed us the room and answered all the questions. She even arranged for a water taxi and walked us down to meet him. Very fast internet, too.

We arrived are were upgraded to the best windows on San Marco square which provide one of the best views you found imagine in such a beautiful city. The facilities were as expected and on the luxurious side. The reception staff answered all questions and queries with consideration of the individuals needs and plans. The room was large and the bathroom exquisite. Very venitian and well worth a visit. One of the better hotels I have stayed in in Italy.

This must be the best accommodation for our trip to Italy. For a 1star rated hotel it was located in the best location with everything you need in a room and a terrace overlooking a very beautiful quiet canal. The staff suggested a fantastic restaurant just outside the hotel. There was a ferryboat just about 300m away and made this hotel even more a perfect location. If we ever visit Venice again I will not choose any other hotel...best best best!!

The place is situated very close to the centre of Venice. Moreover, I must appreciate fast answering of host in case unexpectedly problems with heating system. We visited Italy in March. The appartament is situated in district of Venice, where is not so many tourists as in the others districts. The fish shop with fresh squids, octopuses and crabs is next to this apartament.

The best hotel I have ever stayed in! Should be rated as 4 star boutique hotel for service alone. They cannot do enough for you...A true retreat in the heart of Venice. The daily menu served from 3pm is a light homemade meal. As a handbag traveller was amazed to find mosquito plug in the room along with strong aircon and perfume plug. That alone is service.

I very much liked this property, it was my final stop across Italy & it was by far the best room. It had amazing decor throughout the room/hotel, modern bathroom & a comfortable bed. The location was good however a little hard to find as you are not allowed signage. Other than that I can not fault the hotel.

Perfect location. Great to see Tallest bell tower from room. But, would’ve assumed the rooms were nicer based upon pictures and $$$. Stayed in nicer cheaper rooms around Italy (maybe Venice more expensive on avg.). I may try a different place if I ever get back, but that’s a great back-up.

Very nice hotel. More comfortable than usual 3 star. It is a real luxury to live 2 steps away from Accademia bridge and start your day in the very heart of Venice. And I was their in January and it was warm inside which is also very important for the hotel in Italy in winter.

Fantastic spot on the grand canal just steps from the Rialto bridge. Basic room was nicely decorated. Our room had a bathtub. Only bathtub in several days in Italy. A nice one at that. In an area with lots of action late into the night.

The staff were kind and helpful! It was the first place we stayed in Italy and we were happy to be given the tips of where to go and what to eat. It was in a very good location too being so close to the Rialto! It was also clean!

Perfect location, especially the train station as we were travelling down the East coast of Italy after our stay in Venice. The hotel was spotlessly clean and our room was cleaned every day. Really good breakfast options too.

We stayed in six different hotels or B&B’s during our two weeks in Italy and this was our favorite. The room is clean and beautifully decorated, large in size, and breakfast was amazing. No regrets!

I would stay at this property ten times over. Beautiful hotel off the beaten bath. Quiet. Also near the best fresh pasta place in all of Italy. Very good gnoccheria is next door go try it!

This was a great hotel! The room was lovely. And they have the best black out curtains! This was also the best breakfast out of all of the hotels we stayed at in Italy. Highly recommend.

Location was perfect. Close to attractions, but far enough from the madness and crowds. Best breakfast AND coffee out of the three hotels we stayed at while visiting Italy.

One of the best properties in Italy and Europe. Excellent location, wonderful staff and nicely decorated rooms and hotel. Highly recommended ...
