We booked a week in Venice for may 2013 in September 2012, using Tripadvisor to select our hotel. Once again the Tripadvisor contributors information was spot on. The service at this hotel is first class. Everyone working there is always helpful, smiling and friendly. From the time we made the initial contact with Giovanna, through to Anka organising our water... More

Wow! We love this place! We are currently staying in a great room on the 2nd floor, Marco Ricci. The room is is 17th century Venetian style, with a great bathroom too. The mirror is a TV too! Amazing! The view is not over the canal, but tou can see it to the left out if the window. The common... More

We stayed at Hotel Canal Grande for 4 nights at the end of April to May. This part of Venice (in my view) is the best part, as it is away from the hetic tourist bustle and is still easily accessible to every part of the trourist sites via water bus. the stop for the water bus is a few... More

The staff was incredibly helpful and kind. Even loaned us an umbrella for a rainy day (even after we had checked out). Room was quite nice and quiet. Breakfast was great. Location was great -- close to the rail station. Enjoyed the stay very much.

Their customer service went the extra step with every interaction - giving as much detail as they possibly could so you knew where you were going, which buses/water taxi's to take etc The hotel itself was ideally...

Excellent hotel in all ways: lovely room, charming view over the canal, friendly staff, reasonable breakfast (Venice not generally being great for food), good value, spotlessly clean, quiet etc.etc. Can't fault it.

The first thing to like about this hotel is its close proximity to both the Santa Lucia railway station and and the bus drop off at Piazzale Roma, with only a short walk to each. However, this does mean a longer walk of around 15 minutes to Rialto and nearly 20 minutes to St Marks. The hotel itself is magnificent,... More

This place was a jewel! We were upgraded upon arrival with our choice of two different suites. I cant believe the luxury! The bed was very comfortable, looked like a King and Queen should be sleeping in it the way it was decked out. The bathroom was lined with marble, and beautiful fixtures. It had a very nice living area.... More

A few weeks before my trip to Venice, the person with whom I was traveling and the travel agent who booked my cruise were dragging their feet about finding a hotel in Venice for three nights before the start of the cruise. I went to Travel Advisor and immediately booked the Hotel Canal Grande which was ranked #3 out of... More
