We enjoyed a lovely family stay in a spacious room with a nice view of the canal. The location made it easy to catch vaporetto rides to explore Venice, and the hotel’s beautiful lobby and charming decor added a magical touch to our vacation.

In my wife’s opinion, the breakfast service was a bit slow and confusing, and a play area for kids would be great.

A fine historic stay with a nice marble bathroom. the location was perfect, a short stroll to local cafés and sights. The air conditioning was efficient, a much-needed relief after a sweltering day. However, the breakfast options were awkward since there was no self-service, and the lift operation was somewhat hazardous, nearly causing an injury. On a hot night without air conditioning, we had to deal with both the heat and the mosquitoes, which made for less than ideal sleep.

Charming atmosphere in a historic building, complete with original features that add to its character. Close proximity to the Grand Canal allows for easy access to water transport, particularly the Vaporetto at San Stae.

Navigating to the hotel can be a hassle. it's tucked away in a narrow alley with insufficient lighting and unclear signage. The presence of scaffolding on the outside detracts from the aesthetic appeal, and breakfast service felt inefficient when it should have been a straightforward buffet style. Additionally, the lack of easily accessible restrooms in the reception area makes it inconvenient, especially after a long day of exploring.

Couple seeking charm and comfort

The room was spacious and had this vintage decor that captured the essence of the place,, not to mention the fine views of the canal while sipping your coffee. The breakfast staff went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed and offered us more than what was on the menu,, even bringing over some local pastries just to be nice.

It wasn't exactly cheap,, but I'd say it was acceptable given the location and vibe.

Couldn't recommend more for a weekend break

Charming hotel, convenient location, and fantastic amenities made our stay enjoyable. we loved the easy access to the vaporetto stop just 20 meters away for exploring the city and the beautifully designed marble bathroom in our room.

The room was nicely decorated and had great air conditioning, which was a lifesaver in the summer heat. However, it was pretty small and there was hardly any drawer space for our stuff. The bathroom was nice with good water pressure, but overall it felt a bit cramped for a longer stay. The tiny balcony overlooking the canal was a nice touch though!

The easy access to the canal and the perfect location made exploring a breeze! We loved being a quick 10-minute walk to the Rialto Bridge and San Marco. The room's features were fantastic, especially the view of the canal from our suite.

palazzo giovanelli e gran canal offers a fantastic location right on the grand canal, just a block from the san stae vaporetto stop. our room was upgraded and featured a beautiful marble bathroom. the service was exceptional, especially when we chatted with the friendly general manager.

Enchanting, enchanting, enchanting.

I adored my stay! The Junior Suite with Canal View was nothing short of magical, offering amazing views of the Grand Canal right from my window! Plus, the breakfast included a good mix of local pastries and perfectly cooked dishes that made every morning special.
