Palace Bonvecchiati - Venice

This guest did not leave a comment.

Great value for the money in Venice!! Perfect location and very accommodating staff. I read many other reviews before selecting the Palace Bonvecchiati and while not all the reviews were perfect, our visit was nothing other than wonderful!

The hotel is gorgeous and within about a 5-7 minute walk from both the Rialto Bridge and San Marco Sq (if you can figure out the best route which took us a day). The staff wasn't friendly. When we checked in they put us in a handicap room overlooking the air conditioning unit. The bathroom (given it was accessible) looked nothing like the photos. I […] also was offended because I have a relative in a wheelchair and she many times has found herself in situations were the handicapped room she reserved was given away. Regardless, I called down and asked for a different room. He called back 5 minutes later and said they had one room available but it had 2 twins next to each other instead of a double bed. We took it. The room was very large by any standard, not just European. The bathroom was big and elegantly designed. When we inquired about a side trip to Murano they said they have a boat that takes people for free and puts you on a tour and they arrange to get you back. We went with a couple other guests. When we got off, we asked the driver how we get back and he said, he didn't know ask the glass tour guide and that man said take a taxi (about $60 euros) or a water bus. So they drop you off but don't arrange for you to get back. We went on the tour and took a bus back after walking around the town. All in all, the hotel was the nicest of all the 4 star places we stayed on the trip. I loved the actual space, just didn't like how the whole room assignment was orignally handled. Just another note, we took a gondola ride, it costs $80 euros for 30 minutes but well worth it. Apparently, they all charge the same amount. Read more

Yeah, Venice is an old city, a city-museum in itself, but that doesn't mean I want an old Venetian Style hotel. If you want to enjoy Venice, but pay very reasonable rates for the most modern and gorgeous hotel in touristy Venice, then this is the place to be. A 7 minute walk from the number 1 and number 2 waterbus station. Here's a tip. If coming from […] the airport, take the number 5 bus to Venice. The last stop is Piazzala Roma (I think that's the name). Once you're at Piazzala Roma, buy the round-trip ticket for the Waterbus. Take the number 2 waterbus if possible, or the number 1. Get off the Rialto Bridge stop. Follow the site's little map to walk to the hotel. If you miss a street or two, just ask one of the shopkeepers or mailman where is calle de Ferrio and the hotel shall be found. Your luggage better have wheels or you'll have a nice sweaty workout trudging your way to the hotel. Loved the room. Don't worry about the view since you'll be too busy trotting around Venice anyway. Also, the hotels that are on the Grand Canal, guess what? It's a 50-50 shot you'll get you'll get the canal view at the other hotels, and it's a decent chance you may get a view of the small side canal from this hotel, but seriously, who cares? The bathroom is great and is accessible for handicapped folks as well (no, I'm not physically handicapped, but most of these Venetian hotels are not handicapped-friendly and that can be a major asset to a wheelchair bound person). The elevators are spacious. The Superior room, which is generally smaller than the other rooms, is still a very nice size and comfortable. The bed is nice and I even had a great dream while sleeping on it. Granted, being American, I'm used to huge hotel rooms, but this room really was big, especially for European standards. The hotel is deemed 4 stars, but you can't really improve it aside for the 2 little dings that I'll mention at the bottom. 5 stars is what it should be at. Very teeny negatives: If you run the Read more

Modern, clean, stylish, and in a great central, yet quiet location.

We had deluxe rooms for our stay and thought they were wonderful. They were clean, fresh and light. The hotel staff were always helpful and polite. Breakfast was the standard buffet and whilst the room was on the small side we didnt have a problem with this. The location was fantastic - a short walk to the rialto bridge in one direction and St Marks […] square in the other. Would recommend staying here. Read more

We booked 2 rooms. One of the rooms were a single room which they claimed to be double after we complained we had to spend one night in the single room, but received a much better room for the following 2 nights. We had to pay expenses for TV/Internet which we did not use and when we complained the Hotel Manager was adamant that we pay for this unused […] serives. The service I received from the hotel staff was appalling. The location is very good though. Read more

Excellent hotel. Modern decor, clean spacious rooms, excellent variety for breakfast. Three mins from either St. Mark's Square or the Rialto Bridge, ideal location for vaperettos and main sights. Staff are courteous and knowledgeable.

Excellent hotel. Fantastic big room for venice. Breakfast was ok. Conceirge were ok as well but could have facilitated late check out for the price of the hotel. Also, reccomendations of restaurants and cost of gondola ride and water taxi very expensive at hotel. You can get a better price from right outside the hotel. Central location. Would go back […] but do my own thing next time. Read more

great location: 2 blocks to san marco's sq. very comfortable, brand new hotel. we had a great time. all the modern amenities, great free breakfast.

The only hard part was finding the hotel (which was not easy in Venice). Once we found it, we loved every aspect. The hotel has a modern interior, clearly contradicting the surroundings but in a great way. The room was exceptionally comfortable, including the bathroom and closets. The fitness center had only a few pieces of cardio equipment but it was […] top shelf and very roomy. Once you learn you way around, you realize how convenient the hotel really is (halfway between Rialto and San Marco), and we heard no room noise at all. The staff could not have been more helpful regarding restaraunts, directions, etc. All in all, a wonderful hotel experience. Read more

Wow, I was really impressed. The staff & facility were excellent and the location was super. The only real challenge was locating it on a map as Venice is filled with street names that start & end at odd places, only to find that the street continues around another corner.

This hotel was a cool and calm oasis in the centre of a very hot and busy city. The location was extremely central which meant nipping back on foot during the day to cool off or rest was easy. Staff courteous and helpful when required but otherwise unobtrusive. Lovely breakfast with fresh fruit salad etc.

great location

My wife and I had a very comfortable stay at the Palace Bonvecchiati. It is very luxurious and very convenient (literally 200 metres from both St Marks square and the Rialto Bridge). Highly recommend this hotel!

Really nice from most perspectives. But to bring out the two things that bugged me, 1) What is this about charging for internet, and not even wifi) 2) twentyseven degrees in the room, couldn't do anything about it. Other than that great quality at a good price.

The Palace Bonvecchiati is a clean and modern hotel in location that is great to head out from each day (and to come back to at night). It's less than 10 minutes relaxed walk from public waterbus stop at San Marco, and less from Rialto Bridge (if you come that way). Yet you are back from the crowded places. The comfortable rooms are kept spotless, as […] the common areas. The coffee at breakfast could be better (you can order a cappuccino or other, than being given the default black stuff), but that's the only down tick. The staff are very helpful indeed. All in all, especially for a first visit, near all the main sights, look no further than this place. Read more

Concierge wasn't bothered about helping us with luggage on arrival. Given a disabled bedroom & told hotel was full despite booking it 3 weeks in advance through hotels.com

Our initial room smelt of drains and sewage and there were pubic hairs all over the bathroom, not what you want on your anniversary. We complained and were upgraded the following night but had to endure one night in horrible conditions. The hotel was nice, breakfast buffet very good and staff helpful, the spa was very nice. However rooms were not that […] nice and it is very expensive for what you get. Plus you are limited to 30mins in the spa which I think is extremely unfair. It is a nice hotel but for the price you pay its extremely disappointing. I stayed in a hotel in Florence before going to Venice for half the price for a night longer and it was a lot nicer. Would advise to look elsewhere puerly down to the cost - not good value for money. Expected a lot more for the price. Read more

Palace Bonvecchiati was our final stay after 7 wonderful weeks away. What a great position this Hotel is in right between Rialto Bridge and St Marks. We arrived by train into Venice and caught the vaporetto to Rialto Bridge turn right when you get off across one set of stairs, take first left down a narrow lane and follow it for about 400 meters and […] then you're there. Don't be afraid to ask along the way if you aren't sure, everyone is very helpful. The Hotel is modern and very stylish, the bed very comfortable, not much room for suitcases. The bathroom was large and the shower is quirky, an exhaust fan in the room would have been good. Breakfast is great and the terrace overlooks a small canal so you can watch the gondolas going by. We had dinner at the restaurant one night and the food was fabulous. I would definitely recommend this Hotel, it was really good and the staff were very helpful. Take a trip to Murano Island while you're there, it's worth it. Read more

It's excellent hotel. I spent comfortable time during stay. Breakfast is also good.

Just got back from Venice and thought I would share a few opinions on the hotel. Fantastic location, lovely clean, fresh and well presented and I could not find any fault. I would definately use this hotel again and I can't give it a better recommendation than that.

Grate Hotel and position.!! I book room 1 day before trip, so I can complein.. we get a room on first floor with view on air conditioner ))) --- nice. I'll be back . Recommend !! Denis

->Great location.. 2 mins walk for rialto and max 3-4 mins walk for san marco... -> Good rooms with all the modern aminities -> Nice buffet breakfast.

Very comfortable hotel, have already recommended it to friends who will be staying there next week. Great location, room and service.

Buena

Hôtel très bien situé, chambre très confortable et spacieuse, accueil parfait : à recommander !!

Bodde där i 4dagar för första gången i Venedig! Hotellet har bra läge men långt ifrån den standard en fyrstjärnig hotell kan erbjuda! Rummet vi bodde på rum 365 som var handikappanpassad varför just vi fick det rummet fast vi hade bokat 2månader innan resan har jag ingen aning om. Vi bad om att byta till ett annat rum, men det var redan fullbokad! Synd […] för oss men vi var ändå inte på rummet så ofta. Spa avdelningen är ett skämt. Frukosten var ok, uppmärksam personal! Men åker jag tillbaka till Venedig blir det inte denna hotell igen. Tyckte helt enkelt inte det var värt det vi betalade för. Read more

O quarto que fiquei tinha um cheiro de retorno de esgoto muito evidente, único pecado desse magnifico hotel

O Hotel é muito novo, decoração muito chique, limpo e com café da manha muito gostoso! Além de tudo é bem localizado! Perto da Praça de Sao Marcos.

Très satisfaisant à tout point de vue.

zeer goed en netjes ontbijt kon beter qua kwaliteit. teveel zoet en koffie niet lekker. fruitsap limonadesmaak verder alles zoveel je wil conclusie : aanrader prijs, kwaliteit

Hotellet har en perfekt beliggenhet i forhold til alle fasiliteter i Venezia. Svært imøtekommende og hyggelig personell som gjorde alt for at vi skulle trives. Hotellet virket nyrenovert med lyse farger og topp Italiensk design. Meget høy standard. Sett i forhold til pris og beliggenhet kan hotellet virkelig anbefales.

Hotellet lå dejligt centralt i gå -afstand til alt. .Meget rent og pænt på værelset og morgenmaden var super. Venlig og hjælpsomt personale.

Tres bon hotel . Tres bien placé par rapport a la plce Saint Marc

Hotellet ligge i hjertet af Venedig - ud til en lille kanal. Det er muligt at sejle til hotellet i en vandtaxa. Betjeneingen er venlig og hotellet er smukt indrettet. Værelserne er af høj standard.

Väldigt trevliga rum med bra frukost och en service som var utan tvekan femstjärnig.

Es gibt keine Kritik war perfekt!!!
