"Clean hotel 10 mins from Venice's main bus station"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on May 5, 2012
The rooms were clean and spacious. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The included buffet breakfast consisted of eggs, cold meat, cereal and fresh baked croissants. This hotel is great value! It is a 10 minute walk from the Mestre bus/train station, next door to a supermarket and close to kebab/pizza restaurants and some pubs. It is very easy to get into central Venice. There is a bus right across the street that comes every 10 mins and takes about 12 mins to get to the main bus station in Venice. It costs a little over a euro one way and you can get the ticket at the reception (along with vaporetta tickets). Keep in mind though that st.mark's square is about a 35 min walk from Piazalle Roma ( the bus station). Unless you want to lug your bags through the narrow, busy streets and (many) staircases of Venice and pay a fortune for a dump, I would recommend staying in the Mestre area and this hotel was great value for the money.
"Venice May 2012"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on May 4, 2012
We stayed 1 night only and were very happy with the hotel. Dont forget to get you key from Hotel Luca as the Casa Dolce has no reception. The feeling of the hotel is as you were resident of Venice. We highly recommend it.

"Great Hotel for a great price!"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on May 4, 2012
Exceeded my expectations! Was upgraded to a bigger room for a very low price! Room was right on the canal where you could see gondolas pass by every few min. Made us feel like we were 100% in Italy! Hotel service was good and it was a short distance away from Saint Marks Square. Our breakfast was included and free wifi and free printer was very convenient for us. Would highly recommend this hotel for anyone on a budget, who is looking for a nice hotel!

For visitors arriving by rail or by bus, Cannaregio is Venice’s front door and the start of the Grand Canal. It sees a lot of passing traffic in terms of canal boats and visitors en route to San Marco, but is otherwise quieter and less touristy than central Venice. Points of interest include the Ghetto area (the original Jewish enclave) with its museums and the majestic Ca d’Oro palace, one of the iconic buildings of the Grand Canal.
see all hotels in Venice"Very nice hotel in Cannaregio neighborhood."
Very nice hotel in the Cannaregio. Not too far from the St. Alvise vaporetto stop. Wonderful staff, very kind and accommodating. The first night we got there, we wanted a drink in the bar, which was going to close in 25 minutes. The bartender happily made us drinks and when we started chatting it up with some other folks, happily stayed open an extra […] hour and kept making drinks. Can't say enough good things about the place. The only negative is that as you can see on a map, it is quite far from the "major" sites in Venice, which also has its benefits (less tourists, less nose, etc.). You'll find that walking all that distance to St. Mark's and Rialto quickly gets old, so plan on learning the vaporetto system well. Read more
"One of the cleanest places in Venice"
The neighborhood surrounding Residenza Cannaregio is just that, a neighborhood, with local watering holes and little restaurants. While not the closest location to the main sites in Venice, it is well-placed for the boat to Murano/Burano and close to the train station. We stayed for three nights and the service at the hotel was impeccable, it almost […] didn't even feel like Italy! Read more
"Wonderful hotel!"
Everything was AMAZING!!!! Great breakfast, great room with the canal view!!!! Loved it!
"Nice hotel"
Great service, just a bit far from the main St. Marks Square
"Lovely 4-star with character"
This hotel is lovely, and has great service. The original wood beam ceilings are visible throughout. The restaurant is only open for the full buffet breakfast, and the bar is open only for drinks until 11PM. They have rooms that are directly on a canal and allow you to watch boats and pedestrians pass by. Other rooms open to their beautiful courtyard. […] The location, however, is a bit off the beaten track in a residential section of Venice. You can take a water taxi, as the hotel has a pier right off the lobby! The water taxi from the airport, however, costs over E100. If you choose public transportation, as we did, you will have to take a taxi or bus to Piazza Roma, then a water bus (4.2 or 5.2) to St. Alvise pier, then walk over 1/4 mile dragging your luggage up and down over two bridges (20 steps each) to the hotel. The hotel is difficult to find the first time, and there are no public phones in this residential area. Alternatively, there is another waterbus company, Ilaliguna, which runs a bus from the airport to the next pier over. The hotel is about a 30 minute wald from St. Marks Square. Read more
"Residenza Cannaregio- It doesn't get any better."
Great hotel, very clean, large rooms, modern bath, great breakfast buffet with large selection of hot and cold choices. Helpful and courteous staff offered dining choices and a glass blowing tour at no charge. Away from the crowds but only a 30 minute walk to St. Mark's square. Vapporetto stop is just 2 blocks away if you care not to walk. This was […] by far the nicest European Hotel we have stayed in during our 5 visits to Europe. Read more
"Residenza Cannaregio - beautiful neighborhood"
We arrived at night by water taxi from the airport. What a breathtakingly beautiful ride! This hotel is in a wonderful neighborhood but it's a longish (albeit quite enjoyable) hike down to Piazza San Marco! We stayed for three nights until our cruise departed. The hotel stay was enjoyable, the staff was friendly and the ambience welcoming. We'd be […] happy to stay here again on a future visit to Venice! Read more
"Very nice hotel in true Venice neighborhood"
The hotel is located in a quiet residential neighborhood of Venice. Although a walk from the train station and Plaza Roma, it is well worth it. Same with the San Marcos Square. You can walk to the tourist sites but be away from the throngs of tour boat tourists that overwhelm the areas around San Marcos Square and the Rialto Bridge. A little surprised […] that a hotel of this quality did not include breakfast. I would stay there again or recommend it to friends. Read more

Hotel was clean and the rooms were large by European standards. Staff was helpfull and the complimentary breakfast was very good with meats, breads, cereals and fruit. Staff was able to arrange tours and water taxis without any problem. Good place to stay and you can walk to the more crowded areas during the day.
"spacious room, delightful neighborhood"
friendly bartender, good air-conditioning, poor lighting in the upper loft area of our suite...decent convenient breakfast...very workable...

"Quiet and delightful"
The Residenza is located in a quiet and delightful section of Venice. It is primarily a residential area, away from the busy, tourist areas, but with lovely restaurants. The hotel itself was originally a monastery. The rooms are wonderfully quiet, and the general character has been maintained (complete with the cloistered garden). The rooms are well-appointed […] and modern, complete with internet. Our stay was absolutely delightful. Read more
Our location was great as we were away from the hustle and bustle. The courtyard was a nice place to relax. It was a short walk to the vaporetto on both the Grand Canal and St Alvise. The surrounding neighborhood was very quiet. Our boys really enjoyed going to the near by piazza to play with other children. For us the location was excellent but if […] you like to be in the middle of the excitement stay in San Marco. We stayed in a loft with a nice view of the canal below. The beds were soft for our taste and the pull out couch was what you would expect and no different from what you would find anywhere else so I did not grade down for this. The room was clean. The hotel staff at the front desk was very pleasant and helpful (and English speaking). They made good recommendations for restaurants and helped with reservations. There are not a lot of options for food or gelato in the immediate area due to the neighborhood location but you can find places to eat within walking distance and without taking a boat ride. Read more
Old carpet, bedding, towels. We suffered bed bug bites. Told the staff, they did not want to even consider it. It's equal to a Motel 6 in the US. Overpriced for the quality. Internet did not work (although they advertise their WiFi). The staff said "This is the problem with All the Americans computers!" We never understood what they meant by "American […] Laptop!" Read more
"Hidden Gem"
This hotel is located in a quiet out of the loop neighborhood. Great place to come "home" to after a hot, muggy day of exploring Venice. When you dine in the local restaurants you are likely to encounter more locals than tourists. Area just has a great vibe. It is also convenient to two nearby vaporetto stops so the hustle and bustle of "famous" tourists […] attractions are easily accessible. I would stay there again Read more
"Terrific out of tourist location!"
I would return to this hotel in a heart beat! It was a bit out of the tourist area, and we loved that....much more residential. We were there for almost a week...and felt at home. Try it...!
"Good way to experience Venice"
Nice hotel, great breakfast, quiet location within reasonable walk of all major attractions. Good overall value.

"Ressinzza Cannaregio"
Beautiful hotel with spacious rooms and a wonderful breakfast. Eggs, bacon, croissants, fruit and something for everyone. Having to walk with a cane, the trips into town over numerous bridges was difficult, but the rooms made up for it. Shopping was exquisite with Murano glass and Venetian masks were exquisitel. Plenty of options for gifts!
"A unique experience"
We arrived for 1 night in Venice; who knew that the day we arrived Venice would be literally under water. It had rained so much, that the walkways were flooded with a foot of water. We purchased water boots just to walk around Venice and to reach our hotel. Once the water resided and the rain stopped then my wife and I were able to enjoy the beautiful […] and colorful city of Venice. The hotel was in very good shape. The hotel is clean, our room was really big and comfortable. The area were the hotel is located is quite. We also enjoyed that it was close to the "BILA" supermarket were we could buy snacks. Read more
"Lovely Hotel"
Wonderful hotel. Excellent deal. Great room - very spacious and well equipped, modern and cozy. A little hard to find as it is in an out of the way, but authentic and beautiful area of Venice. I would highly recommend staying here, but make sure you have a map before you embark!
"Experience venice by living on outskirts"
Picked room for price. However, after realizing price of breakfast which we thought was included, we realized the hotel might not have been such a deal. Located to the northeast of the Rialto and central venice, it is certainly one way to experience benice..by walking through half of it to get to your hotel. There are other hotels near the rialto for […] about the same price and will save you the 45 minute walk. For a plus, it is close to the boat docks which go out to the northeast islands like murno and cemetria(sp?). Pros - Nice interior and room furnishings Price of room was okay Cons - No free WIFI Far from Rialto Difficult to find unless you ask a local Expensive breakfast Read more
"Overall... good"
The front hotel staff was less then friendly. There's free wifi in the lobby, 4 euro/hour in the room. Two twin mattresses pushed together in the double room left an uncomfortable gap. The neighbourhood was lovely and the room itself was nice so we were overall happy with our stay.

"Enjoyed our stay"
Hotel was a little off the beaten path, but was clean and comfortable. We had a canal view room. Could hear some sounds from the hotel. Breakfast was great. Employees were very professional and helpful. Thought it was good value and would stay there again.
"Exceptional Deal for Venice"
We absolutely loved our stay at this hotel! We had a huge duplex suite for three people that overlooked a very quaint garden courtyard for a relatively decent price. We always had to ask for directions or about tourist attractions, and the staff was always friendly and very knowledgeable. The location is especially great if you do not want to be in […] the heart of the tourist regions. It is located in the more local, residential area so it was definitely quieter and cheaper than the main areas. A five minute walk will get you to a vaporetto stop, and a 15 minute walk will get you to the border of the tourist areas. The buffet breakfast was very delicious and extremely hearty. Lots of variety of meats, cheeses, eggs, breads, pastries, fruit, cereal, and yogurts. There were juices, tea, and coffee as well. I would definitely return to the this hotel and recommend it to others! Read more
"Not easy to find, but what is in Venice..."
This was a great hotel in a neighborhood and would definately stay there again. It was quaint and had a great breakfast. It was clean and quiet which was important to us.
"Great Loaction, Service, Ammenities and Value"
Nice location in a quite, charming neighborhood with easily access to/from the airport (Orange line to first stop, Madonnna de Orto then a 10 minute walk). Charming old building that has been updated with modern ammenities. The morning breakfast was standard fare but yummy! I don't think the reastaurant or the bar were ever open when we were there but […] didn't miss them. I can't wait to return to Venice and will definitely stay at Residenza Cannaregio again. Read more
"Off the beaten track in Venice"
A wonderful hotel in an area of Venice where people actually live, rather than just being a tourist center. Gives you the feeling of what it would be like to live in Venice. You do have to be somewhat adventurous about traveling to stay there, as you will be doing a lot of walking and hopping on and off the "vaporettos" to get around.
"Nice Hotel"
Vebice is confusing so finding the hotel was difficult, once found everything was great

"Great Property off the Beaten Path of Venice"
This was our favorite of the 5 hotels we stayed at in Italy. Very up-to-date but with unique character (rough hewn beams on the high ceilings, a soothing courtyard, etc.) It is definitely away from the touristy areas - but once you figure out the Vaporetto system (use the S, Alvise stop on lines 41, 42, 51, or 52) you'll be able to get around quickly […] AND be able to relax when you get home at night.

"A quite Spot in Venice"

"Residenza Cannaregio"
The Residenza Cannaregio provides a quiet refuge from the insistent energy of Venice. All major sites are readily accessible by foot or vaparetto. But the hotel itself is in a calm corner of the city, and arriving there after a day of trecking through Venice was a relief. The staff is friendly and helpful. The breakfast is an impressive array of quality […] foods. The room is quite comfortable. Our only criticism was with the pull-out second bed, which had a very thin mattress on open springs, and was so uncomfortable that we abandoned it for the floor. If you are planning on lodging more than three persons in the room, you should discuss alternatives with management, or go elsewhere. Read more

"Residenzia Canareggio"
This hotel is on the outer canal so very quiet. Ideal for a good night's sleep, but very handy to the Vaporetto at StAlvise, so a boat ride or walk to the attractions of Venice not a problem. Service staff, breakfast , cleanliness of rooms all excellent. We would definitely use this hotel again.
"Very Impressive"
This was a lovely hotel set in a quiet location away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Venice but within easy walking distance of all the main sightseeing areas. Some excellent good value restaurants nearby also contributed to a lovely relaxing stay at this hotel. Staff were very helpful and kept in the background almost giving the feeling that […] you were in your own private venue ! Read more

"Excellent"
I can't fault this hotel. Will be going back.
"Amazing experience"
We stayed in this hotel for one night. It was gorgeous. from entering the door, we could feel hospitality .what was amazing that the hotel upgraded our room to a garden suite. What a perk! The bed was comfortable and the breakfast was one of the best! Additionally, the hotel has nearest access to the water bus station linking to Murano island and 15 […] mins walking distance to the central railway station! It deserves it's ranking for sure. I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel to all of you! Read more
"Nice, out of the way, good food near by"
We enjoyed our stay at this hotel. It is far away from the main attractions, but that can be nice in high season when Venice is so over crowded. Once you are hip to the Vaporetti, it is easy to get around and walking is minimal. Probably a bit overpriced considering the location and there was nothing exciting about the decor but the rooms were sufficient […] and large. Read more
"Residenza Cannaregio"
I enjoyed our stay at this hotel very much. It was located in a quiet residential area. It was a nice break from the chaos in the tourist area. The hotel itself had a very nice atmosphere and the staff were very helpful. The breakfast was very decent.
"Very friendly and helpful staff and good location"
Three good things about the stay: 1) Staff was very friendly and helpful during the entire stay. Recommended very good restaurants that was outside of the super touristy neighborhoods. Fixed opera tickets and made recommendations etc 2) Clean rooms, nice bed, very good breakfast to be in Italy (not only sweets) 3) Location outside of the most touristy […] places. It is always short distances in Venice so good to stay at a part of the city with less tourists Read more
"Great hotel - but very thin walls"
My wife and I loved the hotel, but the walls really are paper thin. The conversations on either side sounded like they were in the room
"Quiet location, yet close to all the action!"
This stylish, affordable hotel is in a great, non-touristy location. It has great staff, spacious rooms and a decent breakfast buffet and is only a few minutes walk to restaurants, shops and bars, and the all-important water buses. It would have been handy to have been informed about how to get to the accommodation by public water bus - instead we had […] to catch a water taxi, which ended up costing 60 euros... A few simple instructions and a map would have been suffice. To save yourself this expense, contact the hotel prior to your arrival so you know the directions. We wouldn't recommend walking from the train station to the hotel if you are carrying with you heavy suitcases, as there are quite a few steps and bridges along the way. Nevertheless, even with luggage, it's a maximum 20 minute walk from the station to the hotel (but much quicker and less stressful by water bus)!! Otherwise, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would certainly stay there again if we ever returned to Venice. Read more
"hotel residenza cannaregio, venice"
very nice hotel, clean, well mannered staff and really comforatble once you are there. but slightly difficult to find, bit far away from central station and with no water taxi, might be difficult to reach there with big luggages. would be helpful if they could provide assistance from central station for those who reach there.
