This is an apartment in a 500 year old building. On the canal, large space with extra TV room. Nicely furnished small bathroom but nice. Very nice staff, and we were on the 4th top floor and there are no elevators. 54 stairs. Excellent buffet breakfast for 15 euros. Good Italian Venice experience.

Historic house well converted with Garden and glimpses of the Guidecca canal . We had a spacious suite ( short of shelves) with selection of books and were pleased to dine in the adjoining Hotel Calcina indoor and canal restaurants .

Lovely old Venice feel. Room was dated but comfortable. Bathroom was down the hall, a little inconvenient, but not a problem. The bathroom was tired, the shower did the job, but it took a little bit to get the water running warm. There was a lovely sitting room where you could sit with your wine and listen to the music the hotel played. The hotel is close to the Accedemia bridge and you can walk to just about everything from the location. The breakfast at the restaurant in front of the hotel was a great way to start the day. Location of the hotel was easy to find as its right off a water taxi stop (Zaterre)-might not have that spelled exactly right.

If you want to be a little away from the crowds, want large rooms, quiet, and superb staff, then come here. Oh, and excellent breakfast. Reception and dining room is shared with neighbouring pensione: this works perfectly—we got a stay in a private area with all the services of a hotel. Will return for sure. Lovely also out of season in misty October with distant fog horns on the Giudecca canal.
