Wonderful location. Perfectly maintained / clean / well kept.

Staff was very helpful although not on duty at all hours (which was fine for us).

Room temperature was lovely - air conditioning fine and quiet.

Shutters gave us a dark bedroom - easy to sleep in.

Location was perfect for easy access to canal travel, nearby restaurants and shops.

I already wrote a Google review, I cannot sign up good things about this place. Definitely be sure to get the room with the balcony if you can. It is probably the best room in the entire city. Of all the hotels we walked by while we were staying there was none that came quite as nice as this one. Highly recommend!!

Can’t say enough about this great little find.
It is truly a boutique hotel less then 10 rooms but very gracious size compared to most of Europes hotels we are a family of 3. The staff and management triveso are excellent. Perfectly located on the canal but actually tucked in a corner so limits noise for the most part. Everything at. Your door step and you can take the water bus just a 2 min walk.
The special room treats made it extra nice.

Our Host which I’m going to call T since I don’t remember how to spell his name was so helpful and kind. He gave us directions on our map on how to get around and noted many places to go see. We will definitely stay here again. The hotel is a bit hard to find it in the middle of a restaurant, but it’s perfectly placed.

We absolutely loved this hotel - Had the double room on the canal and it was one of the most romantic and whimsical and lovely rooms I’ve ever stayed in. The photos simply dont do it justice - you are staying in a 16th century palace right on the canal and you feel it. Everything is tastefully decorated and put together, the AC works really well, its highly well equipped, and the lad behind the desk was so kind and gave us amazing recommendations all through the city. Plus, the location is absolutely ideal. We will definitely be staying here again, as soon as possible.

This was our second time staying here and at this rate, might be the only place I ever wish to stay when visiting Venice. I cannot say enough great things about the proprietor of this property. He is so warm, welcoming and accommodating. He is also extremely knowledgeable and passionate regarding the art and history Italy has to offer (not just Venice). Seek out the opportunity to speak with him, you will not be disappointed. We just got home but are already looking forward to returning to Venice and staying here again in the future.

This was a great little spot, accessible to the ferry back to the airport and the street it's on is not too crowded. We had the option of self check in, which was very convenient (and appreciated after our adventures). The room itself as ADORABLE, beautifully decorated, and super clean/quiet/comfortable. Highly recommend! Don't forget a small amount of cash for the tourism tax for venice :)

The staff is AMAZING - the host is there and guides you so well as he seems to know every street in Venice. The location is good and very close to everything if you walk. The train station is 20 mins away walking, water bus would take you the same amount time and it is located in a quiet street right next to the Rialto Bridge. Do ask for directions before coming as with all the visitors you can easily get lost. Lots of places to eat nearby and easy walk to the water bus provided you have your phone for navigation as there are so many streets and easy to get lost in Venice as a city. This is a family run hotel with 8-10 rooms on one floor and easy access but no elevator but have the option to sit on a chair to go up and down if you need it. It is very Venetian style and cute and loved our stay here. The host and cleaning staff and very sweet and perfect family run place which gave us a unique experience of what locals have living in Venice. Totally recommend it.

The hotel was in a good location, exactly like the photos, and very clean. We had the canal view room which was nice to watch out the window. The absolute best part was the service. There was a typed list of area recommendations with a corresponding map. They had taken the time to number and star each location. The concierge was so welcoming and even offered to draw up a walking tour for us. His enthusiasm was so pleasing. There were many guide books of Venice also available. A Nespresso machine, biscotti, and complimentary sparkling wine were beautiful touches. I highly recommend!

The location was good for walking around Venice. Plenty of options for dining, shopping and relaxing. The staff was very accommodating and helpful, providing maps and suggestions for things to do and where to eat. WiFi was good - consistently during our stay. Cell service was good as well. The room was clean - one “strange” amenity was the shower. It basically flooded the entire bathroom floor during each shower ( I think by design). Towels had to be laid out to walk in the bathroom after a shower. Overall a nice boutique hotel!

A lovely canal hotel. Some rooms having the view. All rooms tastefully Venetian styled in the 16 th century building. Nicely centrally located. Modern bathroom. If the price fits then proceed.

The room we had was lovely! Full of perfectly clean and charming detail. The communication from the host was great and there was even a map with their recommendations left on the desk for us. The stairs up to the room was steep so not ideal for those with mobility issues, however, I noticed there is a mobility chair lift. Overall excellent I would recommend and stay again !

Staff responded quickly when we had some issues with checking in and shutters and sink.
Room was clean and tended to daily.
All our questions were answered by staff even though not on site. On last day staff took our luggage downstairs and across first bridge as we headed out to airport offering water and snacks.

The hotel is very convenient. Located on a small canal near the vaparetto stops and a 5 minute walk away from Rialto bridge and 10-15 from St. Mark’s square. Also located close to some delicious dining options.

But what sets this hotel apart is Tiziano. Before we even arrived, he had emailed us detailed instructions on how to get to the property, which line to take on the alilaguna from the airport, and had our room ready well before the 3 PM check in time. That alone was such a relief after a long travel morning. Once we arrived, he had an entire list of recommendations of things to do off the beaten path, places to eat, and a detailed map of where to find it all. Every dining recommendation was delicious, and we saw so many lesser known attractions that we would not have known about otherwise. He went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful and could not have been more hospitable and welcoming to Venice.

This hotel might not have all the bells and whistles of others, but it was clean, had nice and cool AC after a long day of walking in the sun, and the room was always stocked with complimentary water and snacks (the cookies were also delicious)! For the price and location this property cannot be beat. We would absolutely stay here again.

Tiziano was absolutely phenomenal. Incredibly kind, informative, and helpful. He offered tons of recommendations that were awesome. The room itself was SO cute. Everything was very clean. I would stay here every single visit to Venice. The view from my room was spectacular as well. I looked right over the canal. 10/10 truly

A very lovely and cozy hotel, conveniently located near major sights and right by the canal. I stayed in six hotels in the same price range in Italy during my trip, so I can compare — and this one was by far the best. The rooms are generously sized, clean, well-equipped, and beautifully decorated with Venetian wallpaper, paintings, and Murano glass chandeliers. The owners/managers were extremely helpful and friendly. Staying here was truly one of the highlights of my trip.

Fantastic stay at Hotel Al Sotoportego

The front desk manager was absolutely wonderful to work with, very kind and helpful at all times. The room was uniquely decorated which I found to be charming and the bed was comfortable. The air conditioning worked pretty well, so that was a positive in 90°F+ weather!

FANTASTIC!
My daughter and I absolutely LOVED our stay, our hostess and our ROOM! Canal view in the BEST room…we cannot wait to return!

The room was BEAUTIFUL! Beautiful bedding, furniture and the treats with some bubbly YUM!

We also value the guest sheet with directions and recommendations for all the best to eat and drink in Venice (all the places the locals enjoy).

This was a magical place ti celebrate my 55th birthday with my daughter.

Thank you! Sweetest spot and host!

Amazing Host!!!

This was the prettiest place we’ve stayed on our Spain and Italy trip so far! Very quaint and full of charm. The check-in/check-out process was easy, smooth, and the host provided amazing directions to get to the hotel. The host was our favorite part of the hotel! He was engaging, honest, and full of life! He even recommended a place for me to propose to my girlfriend. He was truly wonderful. He also provided a map and list of recommendations (clearly marked on the map) for us to try local pizza, authentic Italian, good gelato, cicchetti, and places to visit. It was lovely to have personal recommendations from a local. The space was clean, felt authentic, and comfortable. More spacious than our prior accommodations as well. Excellent location and easy to get in and out.

Fantastic customer service, convinient location

Very good location.
Good size room to accomodate 3of us. The view from the room was not great , but we only slept there, so not really a deal breaker.
Costomer service was fantastic, we were given a lot recomendations whatvto see, how to travel , where to eat.
The downside for older travellers: the entrance staircase is rather steep and long.
Plrase also note, they do not serve breakfast at the premises (but plenty of options just a stone away)

Both the staff were extremely helpful, be sure to visit the restaurant recommended, especially Trattoria Storica, spagetti pesto, baked seabass with potatoes, then panacotta were delicious and staff very entertaining. Combo has perfect grounds to sit and chill very reasonable.
The hotel is situated in the perfect spot, very central, just 20 min walk to all sites.
Hotel is very clean and rooms are lovely with ensuite and air-conditioning, perfect to put your head down after a long day sightseeing. But no other amenities. So very reasonably priced. Thank you for a perfect stay, we woukd definitely return.

The property was nestled between the restaurants and shops and my room had a balcony over the canal. It was relaxing to watch the gondola's pass under me. Host and his little dog were wonderful. Communication before I arrived at the property was excellent as all my questions were answered. I love the decor because it gave me the feel of Venice 100 years ago, but with air conditioning and a great shower. I would definitely stay there again.

We stayed at Hotel Al Sotoportego for 3 nights. GREAT location. Lots of restaurants and shops around. The hotel was really easy to find. We took the water taxi from the airport and with Google Maps as our guide we walked to the hotel in about 10 minutes (not far at all). We arrived quite late in the day so the concierge left our room key in an envelope with my name on it and two complimentary bottles of water.

Our room was great! Perfect for a 3 night stay. No issues with cleanliness or comfort. The room had lots of charm. The air conditioning worked GREAT - it was definitely nice to come into a cool room after a long day in the sun. There was a mini fridge in our room which was awesome to have for drinks.

The concierge was SO nice. He was so willing to give us recommendations for places to eat, places to walk, directions, help buying train tickets etc.

Overall, I would definitely recommend this place to other travellers going to Venice! It was a great place to stay.
