I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, with a mix of historic details and modern amenities in the rooms, fantastic service, and a lovely location close to the water bus stop. The dining experience was outstanding, offering delicious food in a peaceful setting. The only minor downsides were the lack of communal space due to a large table in the location and the absence of some extras in the rooms.

The hotel rooms were on the small side, but very comfortable and well-furnished with a big balcony offering views of the bustling city. The service was exceptional, with friendly and accommodating staff despite the occasional noise from slamming room doors. The hotel's location in the heart of Venice was fantastic, close to all major attractions but tucked away from the tourist crowds. The dining experience was top-notch with delicious food served in a beautiful garden setting.

Despite the beautiful and spectacular design of the rooms, the overlarge furniture made them feel cramped and inconvenient. The service was top-notch, with lovely and knowledgeable staff providing excellent concierge service. The location, although overwhelmed by a huge table, was still great and convenient for exploring Venice. The dining experience, though amazing, lacked variety in options. The hotel's facilities were lovely and well-maintained.

My stay at the hotel was truly exceptional. The rooms were incredibly spacious and filled with thoughtful touches, like a bowl of cherries on arrival and every complimentary bathroom extra imaginable. The only downside was the lighting, as it could be better for early morning pack-ups. The service was top-notch, with extremely attentive and helpful staff. The location was perfect, away from the crowds but close to all the city's attractions. The dining experience was outstanding, offering a wide choice of delicious food in a peaceful setting. Overall, the hotel exceeded my expectations in every aspect.

I felt like I discovered a hidden gem at this hotel in one of the most beautiful cities in the world. The rooms were filled with thoughtful touches, like a bowl of cherries on arrival and every complimentary bathroom extra I could think of, but it might be a bit loud if you are sensitive to noise. The big balcony was a nice bonus, even though the space is not very spacious as it's converted from a private house.

The service was extremely attentive and constantly helpful, but there were occasional disturbances like slamming service room doors throughout the night. I appreciated being amongst one of the first to stay at Palazzo Venart, and the hands-on approach of the staff made me feel really welcomed.

I couldn't have asked for a better location. Perfectly situated if you wish to stay away from the crowd while still being close to the best attractions of the city. Being able to get married at this gem of a hotel on the Grand Canal was a dream come true.
