Venice is a picturesque destination that is as popular with newly-weds as it is with tourists in search of the must-see canals and life on the water. The Dorsoduro area is a quieter district than some other tourist zones, and has become a favourite of many visitors to the city as an introduction to the canals, museums and local restaurants. Below are five hotels that win high praise from online reviewers.
Centurion Palace
If you want to feel rich, take a private water taxi to the door of this majestic hotel on the Grand Canal. When making reservations, try to get a room with a canal view for the ultimate Venice experience. Rooms reflect a surprisingly modern and eclectic design in an Old World setting. The hotel has a private garden and gourmet restaurant specializing in Mediterranean and “creative” cuisine, according to the hotel’s website.
Hotel Palazzo Stern
Hotel Palazzo Stern is just steps from St. Mark’s Square. The hotel’s 24 rooms reflect a more traditional Venetian style, so if you want authentic, romantic Venice, ask for a room with a terraced balcony and canal views. You also might enjoy having breakfast on the hotel’s terrace.
American Dinesen
This is another hotel where you can experience terraced room balconies with spectacular views. The facility has a private loading wharf so you can arrive by gondola or water taxi in front of the hotel. Many tourists note that this place, for the quality of rooms and location, is a hidden gem of a bargain.
Charming House
Charming House is a tiny boutique hotel offers contemporary design and is near the Peggy Guggenheim Collection gallery. The interior mixes a love of art with modern sensibilities. Tourists note that the site offers peaceful surroundings and an indulgent breakfast buffet./
Hotel Moresco
Hotel Moresco boutique-style hotel is less than a five-minute walk to Piazzale Roma. You can indulge your sweet tooth here with complementary cookies and tea served daily, according to tourists’ reviews online. You may want to ask for a room overlooking Rio Nuovo and enjoy breakfast in the hotel’s garden. Guests note that there are plenty of good restaurants nearby to enjoy, and they praise the hotel’s location for convenience.
