Reviews and Ratings
The hotel was absolutely beautiful, clean, and quiet despite the busy area. The largest balcony with a table and chairs was a great touch, but the room by raffelli always wearing a smile stood out. The service for exploring Venice was incredibly helpful and friendly, and the private pier made the arrival experience special. The dining at Hotel al Ponte dei Sospiri had a very good breakfast selection with lovely views of the Bridge of Sighs. The facilities were modern and well-kept, providing a great stay with some value for money.
The hotel's location is excellent, with easy access to St Marko Square and charming water taxi service right at the entrance. The rooms have a mix of old-fashioned charm and tired decor. The service is incredibly helpful and polite. The dining experience offers fresh ingredients and cheerful service, though some noise issues in the rooms could be a concern.
Stepping into the heart of Venice, our stay was a delightful blend of charm and romance, offering classic Venetian decor and stunning views of the interior canals and alleyways. While the room was a perfect birthday treat for my partner, with its spacious layout and elegant furnishings, the ambiance was truly special. However, the loud location near a bustling market affected our peace and quiet at night.
The hotel exudes shabby elegance in the heart of Venezia, offering quiet rooms despite the bustling surroundings. The beautiful antique furniture adds to the authentic charm, while the maintenance could be more attentive to details. The relatively small bathroom, although elegant, requires a deeper clean to enhance the overall experience.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were extremely clean, and Raffaele was very friendly and accommodating. The room was spacious and nice, and I would definitely stay here again. Being located above an independent restaurant added to the charm of the stay.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were huge, beautiful, and ornate, with a little balcony, clean, and light. I especially appreciated the bathroom facilities designed for disabled people. The service was top-notch, with staff going above and beyond to make us feel like rockstars, even providing room service. The location was exceptional, allowing us to explore St Mark's Square without the crowds, and the staff were very service-oriented and helpful. The dining experience was superb, with attentive service and fabulous dishes. Overall, a wonderful experience!
