3-star canal-view hotel in Venice's city-center
Location
Hotel Al Gazzettino occupies a prime location between Piazza San Marco and the Rialto Bridge, placing guests in the midst of Venice's rich cultural heritage. A short stroll leads to the exclusive shopping street 'Mercerie', home to a variety of high-end boutiques. The hotel is easily accessible from multiple transport options, including the ACTV vaporetto service from various entry points in Venice.
Historical Significance
Housed in a historic 17th-century building, the hotel was originally a textile workshop that welcomed Turkish traders and merchants. The establishment has been functioning for over 50 years, drawing its name from the well-known newspaper, Gazzettino, that once had its headquarters across the street. This rich history of hospitality is evident throughout the property.
Accommodations
The hotel offers a varied selection of room types, including Classic, Superior, and Deluxe Canal View units, all showcasing traditional 18th-century Venetian decor. Almost all rooms provide views of a typical Venetian canal, allowing guests to hear gondola serenades from their windows. Each room includes modern conveniences like air conditioning, mini bars, and LCD TVs.
Amenities
Rooms contain private mosaic bathrooms, with large showers and towel warmers, catering to the needs of every guest. The building has no lift, giving guests a charming and authentic Venetian experience while accessing their accommodations. Fast Wi-Fi is available throughout, ensuring connectivity for leisure and travel planning.
Transportation
For those arriving by air, connections are available from both Venice Marco Polo and Treviso airports to Piazzale Roma, followed by a vaporetto ride to Rialto. Visitors arriving by train can conveniently transfer from Santa Lucia station via ACTV vaporetto line 2. The hotel assists with baggage through a hand truck available at the station and a dedicated luggage deposit nearby.
Highlights
Location: between S.Marco Square and Rialto Bridge
Historical Significance: 17th-century building
Accommodations: Deluxe Canal View
Amenities: private mosaic bathroom
“In my opinion, this property stands out for its prime location near St Mark's Square and the Rialto Bridge. The baroque decor, complete with Murano glass chandeliers, evokes a distinctly Venetian atmosphere. However, reports of guests being left stranded due to late arrival issues give me a concern.”
