Advantages: Awesome location Disadvantages: Food prices very high
...the Internet, I found the Hotel Monaco & Grand Canal. **LOCATION**
The location of the hotel can't be beaten. It is just under 2 minutes walk from the Piazza San Marco (St. Marks Square), and it overlooks the Grand Canal. The restaurant, which I will talk about in more detail later, has seats right on the waterfront. If you know Venice, and know of Harry's bar, the hotel is right next to it. If you don't know Venice, Harry's bar is one of the most ... ...**GETTING THERE**
Access to the hotel is very easy. Of course, you can just walk in from the street. It is very close to the San Marco water bus stop too, which is extremely convenient. From the airport however, you can spend up to 2 hours waiting for, and catching the bus. These can be very crowded from the airport too, and certainly isn't a comfortable ride. Of course, arriving in style is essential at a hotel like this, and so a private water ...

Beautiful little hotel
Advantages: The decor, the breakfast, the friendly staff, Disadvantages: Some rooms are a little on the small side, but this was no big inconvenience
...standard double room in the Ca' Dei Conti hotel (on expedia) for 3 nights in early January 2008, as a romantic break for my boyfriend and I. We fell in love with the place!. The hotel is incredibly easy to find by public water bus, you just get off at the San Zaccaria stop and follow the directions given on the hotel website. It's situated only a few minutes walk from St. Marks Square, but is incredibly quiet and secluded, so there is no noise or ... ...you go off of the tourist path a bit. All in all, I can't wait to go back to the Ca' Dei Conti. It's definitely one of my favourite hotels that I've stayed in and I recommend it to everyone who is looking for a hotel in Venice. ...

Hotel Carlton Grand Canal- Great Location
Advantages: close to bus station Disadvantages: deceptive hotel website pictures create a disappointment when visiting this small hotel
...room are quite deceptive; the Carlton Grand Canal Hotel is a crummy looking hotel with tiny rooms but apparently this is to be expected in Venice- it is also useful to note that there are many dilapidated looking buildings facing the canals and this is becuase the owners are reluctant to spend vast amounts of money on restoration as the canal facade detriorates rapidly from the harsh elements (salt water etc). However this shouldn't deter people ... ...impressive with black mould round the bath. Staff can be unhelpful. On a positive note the breakfast was good. It would have been useful to have board games or pool table in the hotel as some afternoons can be very very hot and it is common for shops to close for the siesta- when travelling with kids this facility would have been very useful. On the whole I would probably try another hotel in future. Having the train station opposite the hotel is ...

My opinion of the hotel.
The hotel was extremely comfortable and homely. The welcome received from not only Mateo but all the staff was very touching and we were treated like friends and not just guests. Would I recommend this hotel to others?
ABSOLUTELY. ...

LITTLE GEM HOTEL IN VENICE CALLED LA FENICE
Advantages: location location Disadvantages: the staff
the hotel is famous for the artists and authors who have stayed there. The hotel is located just five minutes walk from St. Mark's Square. so a brilliant location only problem is finding it the first time as the directions to the hotel given by the hotel seem very complicated and not easy to follow. It is only 15 minutes from Rialto bridge and even closer to Acadamier so a perfect location. It is located in a quiet thoroughfare so no street noise ... ...by special arrangement only. The hotel ambience was very much in keeping with Venice and has a quantness about it there is a little garden you can have your breakfast in and drinks in the evening although it is quite nice it is not beautiful.. The bedrooms were spotless and there were lovely clean towels and crisp sheets. the shower head was almost as big as the shower but hot water was there so all good and the room while a bit on the small side, ...
