to get started.

Great B&B and lovely food in the restaurant underneath.

Michelle, United Kingdom

The location was great! It was a short walk to everything. The owner was wonderful and very helpful.

Melissa, United States of America

Great location, very well maintained room, nice staff, simple but very tasty breakfast.

Leonard, United States of America

Location, service, clean, host was a huge help and stayed connected with us the entire time to ensure safe visit.

Jay, Canada

The location and the cleanless of the room. Loucas was very friendly and always available for any information requested.

Dimitris11, Cyprus

The property was conveniently located a short walk from Realto Bridge (close to vaporetto and Alilaguna stops). Room was furnished in Venitian style. I liked nice cool floor. Bathroom was decent size and in good order. I was a bit concerned about not having 24-hour staffed front desk (we didn't stay much in B&Bs before) but the owner was waiting for us when we arrived (we notified him beforehand about our arrival time) and provided his contact information in case help was needed. When I accidentally locked myself out of the safe, I called him (told him this was not urgent) and he showed up quickly. Overall, we had a good stay and I would stay there again.

Tamara, United States of America

central location, reasonably neat room, pleasant hosts

Jacqueline, United States Minor Outlying Islands

We had a great stay at Barababao, I do see myself returning here and would recommend it 100%. If you are after somewhere swanky and in the lap of luxury this won't be for you. If you want somewhere perfectly located, easy walking distance from st marks square and the Rialto bridge, spotlessly clean and with the perfect host - then this is the place for you. We had a wonderful room, with Windows on 2 sides, so we could get a great view of the world outside the b&b daily bustle. It's not the quietest spot, but is central Venice not a leafy vale in the countryside. Luca, the host at the b&b is quite a character, and as a Venetian he knows the lowdown on everything Venice - a what's more, he's happy to share it with you at any time and is always just a phone call away. Oh, breakfast - beautiful fresh strawberries and apricots and fab pastries - a touch of decadence to start the day. Thank you Luca, we had a wonderful stay at Barababao.

Sarah, United Kingdom

The food and the service of the Restaurant next to this property was of an very high standard

Anne, United Kingdom

The owner (Luca) is fantastic - very sociable, easy going, hospitable, always ready to help. The location is just in the middle of everything. The room is nice with a private bathroom and a hair drier is provided. Tasty breakfast. We advise this property to everybody who is planning a trip to Venice! Thanks to Booking.com

눉The toilet seat is a bit broken, meaning that it feels a bit like a carousel. The bathroom is quite small. The walls are relatively thin.
눇Fast WiFi, good location close to the Rialto bridge, reasonably quiet, friendly host. We had to check out before breakfast and the host told us to get a substitute breakfast at a nearby place, for free. Very friendly. Big bed, good pillows, large room.

“Fantastic location and great hospitality”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Double or Twin Room
- • Stayed 3 nights
눉The B&B rooms are on the second floor/storey of the building, which means if people smoke outside on the ground floor, the cigarette smoke wafts up to your room. The smell is very faint, but still noticeable. Unfortunately there is not much Luca can do about people smoking outside the building, so if you're very sensitive to light cigarette smoke, then this is something to consider.
눇If you would like to stay in a hidden street 5-minutes away from the Rialto bridge and start your mornings with fun chats and coffee with your host, Luca, then this place is a perfect fit! The breakfasts are typical local style - sweet jams, fruit, and pastry, coffee - and the conversations with Luca in the morning are lively and interesting. If you'd like to know anything about local Venetian life, current affairs in Italy, where to eat and visit (and where to avoid), he is your guy! You can't get this kind of personal touch in hotels, so - for me - the hospitality alone is worth staying here. As for the room, they are of decent size and, for a B&B, I think Barababao is an excellent value. Remember, this is a B&B not a fancy four or five-star hotel, so you have to think of staying here as the same as staying at an Airbnb. There is hand soap and towels, etc. but you'll have to get your own shampoo and special toiletries etc. from the grocer or pharmacy. Thankfully, nothing is far away, so you can find ATMs and pharmacies are usually within a few min walk. The place has really good wifi (I always had a strong connection), air conditioning, clean and well-kept rooms, and the quaint four-room B&B gives you a more local "I'm living in Venice" feeling. It is also in an exceptionally central location - very easy to get to the Rialto waterbus stop, and the F. Nove waterbus stop direct to the airport is only a 10-15minute walk away. (My flight arrived late, and I had to walk from F. Nove stop to Barababao by myself late at night and I found it just fine. Got there in 10 minutes using Google Maps with no problem. The host was also very nice to check-in with me at such a late hour, phoning to make sure I was alright and did not have problems getting to the B&B.

“Pleasant B&B with nice owner close to Realto Bridge”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Double or Twin Room
- • Stayed 3 nights
눉There was a restaurant in the courtyard where our window was looking so in the evening things got rather loud (there was live music) but they shut down around 11 pm so this was not too bad.
눇The property was conveniently located a short walk from Realto Bridge (close to vaporetto and Alilaguna stops). Room was furnished in Venitian style. I liked nice cool floor. Bathroom was decent size and in good order. I was a bit concerned about not having 24-hour staffed front desk (we didn't stay much in B&Bs before) but the owner was waiting for us when we arrived (we notified him beforehand about our arrival time) and provided his contact information in case help was needed.

눉The pillows were lumpy and there was only three of them for two people. The toilet seat was broken. The curtain fabric was thin so the sun light came streaming in first thing in the morning. The 3 doors to get to our room were hard to unlock.
눇The location was good. Lots of restaurants, cafes and shops everywhere.
