Locanda Casa Petrarca

Great location really friendly staff , the room is clean and comfortable

We found this little Guest House (Inn) on Hotels.com. What A Find. A few minutes walk from Rialto, a few minutes from St Marks, close to everything. The service was fantastic, and Valentina and her couldn't have been more helpful. We arrived late, after they had already left, and there was cold water in the fridge in our room. Out the next day, back to the room being stopless and beds made. Breakfast is continental style, and I saw reviews saying it was small. Well just ask, and you got what you wanted. Breakfast starts at 8am, but as we were leaving around that time, they opened 30 minutes early so we could eat a On the orange line back to the airport this morning, and realised I had left my charger. Again, no trouble, just " give me your home address, and I'll post to you". Highly recommend this to anyone. Only really small downside, was that due to the restricted space, there was no sofa / lounge area to chill when back, however, if the choice was an extra room for income and a lounge,I would also choose to have the extra room. Great little place, and so very welcoming.

I wanted to take my parents to Venice during our European trip. While the weather was cold from the snow (which I enjoyed), the location was very nice and exceeded my expectations. The manager Valentina was very helpful in providing us tips and suggestions (listen to her!!!). The breakfast provided was great to get us through the day and ready for an early dinner. You are centrally located between the Rialto and San Marco Square which I thought was great. If you are bringing heavy luggage, I recommend using their porter service (try to negotiate pricing). If you can, try to upgrade to the Superior room. You get a nice view of the canal and your own bathroom. All in all, Valentina and the staff made it a very great experience and the cleanliness and helpfulness is what is motivating me to write this review.

Brilliant location, great value for money, wonderful hospitality.

Hotel was convenient to major attractions literally a 5 min walk to San Manco and 2 min to the Rialto. Valentina and Stefano gave great idirections to the unusual places I wanted to see and were extremely cordial hosts!! Great choice - but know not all rooms have in room baths/wc We did.
