Our Picks
6 hotels · Updated February 2026
Giudecca
A brilliantly designed hostel and hotel on the island of Giudecca with sweeping San Marco views from the rooftop terrace, a vibrant bar, and an unlikely combination of budget pricing and exceptional location that makes it one of Europe's best-value Venice stays.
Dorsoduro
A gorgeous Neo-Gothic palazzo directly on the Grand Canal in the Dorsoduro sestiere, with a terrace hovering over the canal surface, exposed stone interiors with antique furnishings, and a quieter, more residential location than the San Marco hotels.
San Marco
A charming boutique in an Orientalist-influenced palazzo near the Accademia, with individually designed rooms inspired by 1930s Orientalism, a courtyard garden, and thoughtful service. Exceptional value for a San Marco address of this character.
San Marco
A small, independently run boutique hotel in a 15th-century palazzo near Campo Pisani, with characterful frescoed ceilings, antique furnishings, and a genuinely intimate welcome that distinguishes it from the more anonymous luxury properties.
Cannaregio
A magnificently frescoed 15th-century palace in the Cannaregio sestiere — away from the San Marco tourist intensity — with extraordinary Giambattista Tiepolo frescoes, a canal-side terrace, and the kind of authentic palazzo atmosphere that most Venice hotels merely aspire to.
Castello
A modest but well-reviewed hotel in the residential Castello neighbourhood with direct views across the Giudecca canal to the lagoon, a friendly local atmosphere, and remarkably low prices for what is, in effect, a waterfront Venice address. Perfect for those who want authentic Venice over luxury.
