Clean, heating was perfect (it was freezing outside), quiet, decent breakfast, great espresso and very helpful staff. I was travelling alone with three children (12,... More

The rooms are simply furnished but quite comfortable and... More

Our 1st time staying in Venice and we think we made a great choice to stay. Clean comfortable room average breakfast but reasonably priced. The best thing is the position so central. We found the staff very friendly and extremely helpful.

This was the 1st Hotel we stayed in Italy, I would highly recommend this Hotel. The staff was very nice, everything was done by email. There was a slight language barrier but as long as you are friendly you can understand and figure out what everything means. The Breakfast was amazing especially after a long and tiring traveling day. We... More

Nice hotel, very pleasant stay but wifi is only available on the first floor, although they do provide free internet at a computer by the lobby, wifi is paid for and only available on... More

So friendly and welcoming! A warm haven to return to after a day out in the cold January weather. Hotel well situated near S. Marco and waterbus stop. Largish room clean and comfortable with good ensuite facilities. Staff very accommodating and helpful. Our stay at the Fontana was altogether a pleasant and heartwarming experience. Would definitely return!

It is in a perfect location and it was easy to walk around to nearby restaurants, bars and the sights. We were greeted by a friendly gentleman, he was helpful and helped us to book restaurants and the orchestra... More

very convenient to the wonderful city of Venice. Our room was very comfortable, wonderful crisp sheets, roomy and bright bathroom. Everyone at the front desk and Grandmother who was always there were pleasant, helpful and spoke English (except Italian grandmother). We would stay there again.
