Frommer's Review

You won't get a more choice location: right on the Grand Canal, across from Harry's Bar, 1 long block from St. Mark's Square, and all of it thoroughly renovated from 2001 to 2003. That said, only 10% of the rooms actually overlook the canal; these tend to be midsize with ornately painted headboards and closet doors and nicely done bathrooms with heated towel racks. Some good news: When they're not booked, the staff can block off the large sitting rooms of suites to turn them into canal-side doubles. Standard rooms without the view are more simply furnished but share the same tall ceilings and windows to let in that fine Venetian light. Several lounges feature windows on the canal, and the bar service, restaurant, and breakfast move out onto a canal-side terrace in warm weather (in winter, a piano bar operates in an inner lounge warmed by an open fire).

Facilities:
Venetian/Italian restaurant; bar; concierge; tour desk; car-rental desk; limited room service; babysitting; laundry service; dry cleaning (same day); nonsmoking rooms
