Plus: excellent location, quiet, clean rooms, very friendly service Minus: breakfast is of low quality (super market desserts and pies, bad coffee, canned fruit salad, nothing fresh), 3 flights of stairs It is a good choice, definitely recommended!

Talk about an authentic place to stay! We, too, lugged our bags up all those stairs to the reception area, wondering if we had made the right choice -- and can assure you that the service here is excellent, the views amazing, and the breakfasts delicious. We bought a $10 bottle of wine from the hotel each night, and sat... More

This hotel was hard to find, but worth looking for. Rooms are really lovely, floors are tilted, you can feel the history here. Very clean. Hotel manager was really nice, helpful and friendly too. I would definitely stay there again. Breakfast was served on a roof terrace with a view over Venezia.

Stayed here with my wife for 3 nights. Staff were nice and very helpful. We had the choice of two rooms. One was tiny but was ensuite the other slightly bigger but the bathroom was down the corridor. We opted for the ensuite but due to the room being so small we were tripping up over our luggage. Also the... More

I had a group of 13 staying at the Locanda Antica for 2 nights and when we arrived we walked past the entrance. (Dark green door with a simple plaque that reads "Locanda Antica") When we entered the foyer it looked to be under renovations and I became a bit jittery. After I made it to the front desk (4...

We stayed 2 nights in the Carpaccio Room. Venice is expensive & this was the best we found for 150 Euros a night. Location is fabulous, its just behind San Marco Square. We were welcomed by a pleasant receptionist, she quickly checked us in and informed us about the breakfast & other facilities. The Air-Conditioner & wifi in my room... More

An authentic hotel in the centre of Venice just two minutes from St Mark's Square. We returned yesterday from a two night stay in this hotel and having read some outragious reviews were a little apprehensive. However, our room, although small was very clean and tastefully decorated. The bathroom also excellent. We had a fridge and small TV and the... More

I just spent five nights here and I am happy to rate them highly on Trip Advisor. They deserve a top rating for service, comfort, atmosphere and breakfast. The only negative would be the three full flights of stairs that must be climbed. The location is perfect - two minutes from St. Marks Square and walking in the evening is... More

I cannot praise them enough, we had 3 great nights there in December 2011! 3rd and 4th floor of an old Patrician house, huge room, seems newly renovated, looks just like on the website. The first night we were the only guests, it was mid December and off season, they only have about 10 rooms. In spite of this there... More
