Hotel Casa Petrarca

I do recommend casa Petrarca. The location could not be better. Everything is so close. Our room was very spacious, we had two great views. One to a small canal, and the other to the street. We had comfy beds, and two chairs from where we could see the gondolas passing by. I got the room I requested Valentina. I was so happy when she reserved that room for us. Casa Petrarca was spotless, very clean. Valentina was a great host, always attentive and friendly. She recommended us places to go and restaurants when we asked about them. Thank you Valentina for a wonderful stay! We will visit again!!

The location of the hotel is fantastic. 10 minute walk to the Rialto Bridge or St Mark's Square. Although not large, the rooms were clean and well maintained and I doubt you will get big rooms in this type of location. Breakfast was nice and plentiful - eggs, meats, yogurts, croissants, etc. and fantastic coffee. We would definitely stay here again if (when!) we return to Venice and Valentina was the best host. She was really helpful and gave some very good tips of places to go.

This was our fifth visit to this lovely little Bed and Breakfast a short walk from the Rialto waterbus stop and an even shorter walk from St. Mark's Square. It is an ideal location from which to explore Venice . There are 7 rooms that are all different configurations and prices. We always choose to stay in the largest double room that overlooks a small canal. The delightful host Valentina is multi-lingual so whatever your nationality you can be sure of a warm welcome that you can understand. The owner does not live in, but if you arrive 'out of hours' Valentina will ensure that you can easily gain access to your room. We love staying here but if you're coming for the first time you need to understand that each of the rooms are different in their outlook and configuration.
