Third stay at this hotel over twenty years. In good weather, the location is excellent. This time we were there in raw, cold December and it seemed too far from good restaurants long after dark. Formerly, though, we loved being directly on a small, working canal where we could watch local commercial maritime activity in a quiet, interesting neighborhood. The hotel is only a five minute walk from the Accademia Bridge and vaporetto stop, extremely convenient. As for the hotel, the staff couldn't be nicer. Extremely important in Italy, the beds are perfectly comfortable, made with good linens. All is immaculate, and there is a nice bar adjacent to the lobby for nightcaps after returning from dinner. Breakfast is exceptional, almost extravagant, with every choice you could want as well as freshly made omelettes to taste.
United States of AmericaWe loved the location. The breakfast was excellent and the staff went above and beyond. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to friends.
United States of AmericaIt was in the center of the city. Close to all the activities and restaurants.
United States of Americawonderful location just outside the crowded area but close enough to feel all the energy. I also felt at home with the staff making us feel part of the family. I would recommend this hotel without any hesitation.
United States of AmericaExcellent location for those with an interest in the arts. Just a few minutes to walk to the Gallerie dell'Accademia, the Peggy Guggenheim collection, many others. Short walk to the the Santa Maria della Salute . Art galleries, shops, restaurants abound in this ‘artsy’ welcoming & slightly less touristy area.
United States of AmericaHotel American-Dinesin is a lovely property. The staff were exceptionally kind and helpful and always concerned about our comfort. The breakfast was delicious and full of diverse options. The location is ideal as it is near San Marco, but not in the fray of the crowds.
United States of AmericaWonderful small balcony over the canal, with a lovely view.
IsraelStaff was exceptional. Breakfast was great. Location is the best. Room overlooking the canal was a dream.
United States of AmericaThe staff were great and very friendly. The room was clean and well maintained.
Saudi ArabiaLocation is everything in Venice. It is right on a canal for water taxi access, within easy walking distance to all the sites, beautiful views, and great restaurants. We loved it 10 years ago and it’s even better now, having been completely renovated. Very good breakfast. Best staff. Take a water taxi to/from the airport or train station; it might be the most wonderful thing you do in Italy — besides eating 😉.
