Wow where do I begin, this hotel is absolutely beautiful and historic. You feel like you’re staying in a museum. It’s actually a house that’s been in the family for centuries, yet everything is in pristine condition and was still functional. The bed was comfortable, and the room was very clean. The location is great, because it’s a short walk to the train station and within a 20 minute walk to St Marks Square. The host was also incredibly kind and helpful. We will stay here again on our next visit to Venice and will recommend this place to other’s as well.

Jacqueline United States of America

A beautiful historic Bed and Breakfast, unique with very large rooms/suites and common areas. In a great location not far from train station, with local character.

Giuliana United States of America

These folks know how to take care of travelers. We experienced kindness and caring that went far beyond expectations for regular hotel professionals. After a day on the streets, we always looked forward to coming home to Antico Portego. Loved our room and garden views. Friendly neighborhood with good restaurants and shops. Good mattresses and quiet place to sleep.

Judy United States of America

Giorgina, the property owner, was so kind and friendly. She gave us a very warm welcoming. The atmosphere was so nice. I'll definitely stay at the same place next time I go to Venice.

Mohammadreza Iran

Giorgia is an excellent host. We felt very welcome and she is very accomodating. We were even allowed to leave our heavy luggage at the Antico Portego after Check Out, until we had to catch the train.

Lisa Italy

The place is amazing and the owner is so nice. Highly raccomanded!

Francesco Italy

Really unique and beautiful hotel. Room was amazing, high ceilings, really beautiful furniture. Like a palace. Also we had nice balcony. Owner of the place was nice and welcoming. There was free water and some croissants downstairs. We even played chess. And location is close to everything. Also a lot of places to eat nearby.

Ninaida Estonia

The accommodation is beautiful, spacious and serene. The owner, who is warm and attentive, is justifiably proud of it, and will make you feel welcome and honoured to stay in an interesting and very convenient part of the city.

Sean United Kingdom

Spacious and very clean room, very friendly and efficient staff, good places to eat nearby, easy access to the vaporetto.

Paul Australia
