- Nicolas (9/5): tout c'est extrêmement bien passé et l'hotel est tres bien - l'emplacement à 3 minutes a pieds de la place saint marc était parfait, la chambre était très confortable , très propre tout comme la salle de bain , de plus le personnel était extrêmement sympathique particulièrement l'homme qui nous a accueilli et nous a parlé français l'épaisseur des fenêtres , nous étions au premier étages et c'était un peu bruyant la nuit.
- Jennifer (7/5): A perfect location to stay in Venice - The location was perfect very close to St Marks Square but in a quiet street the room was tastefully decorated and clean. The air con did not work although the weather was cool so we could open the windows and we could only get 1 channel on the TV.
- Tsvetomir Velikov (8/5): -
- Michael (8/5): - Top Lage und immer super Stimmung am Platz!😃

- Karen (10/5): Would recommend this hotel for location and friendly staff. The breakfast was excellent. - The location of the property was excellent, right beside St Marks Square and also the Vaporetto stop. Staff and owner were very welcoming and helpful. Really lovely breakfast on the 3rd floor and the lady who served it was so nice. The room was very traditional and beautiful and the bed was extremely comfortable. My husband had difficulty with the stairs so they organised a full tray to be brought to our room for him which was above and beyond. Loved everything, however it was my birthday on the 2nd day we were there so even a wee handwritten card at breakfast would have been a nice touch.
- Valentyna (10/5): Чисто, уютно, вежливый персонал, местоположение-идеальное! - Вежливый персонал, очень чистый номер! Местоположение- ТОП🥰 в номере убирали каждый день! был так же в номере чай в ассортименте, и водичка газированная и обычная. в перешей доступности ВСЕ достопримечательности! персонал отеля дал отличные рекомендации касательно самых лучших ресторанов! Максимилиан на ресепшене был очень вежлив и заботлив! Отличный отель! всем рекомендую ✅ минусов нет
- Maddox (10/5): - Staff very friendly and helpful! Perfect location NA
- Weston (8/5): A person getaway in Venice we stayed two nights thoroughly. Enjoyed the location. - Centrally located and well maintained. Unbeatable for the price and location. It actually rained one evening and we woke up to leaks in the bathroom as they were apparently renovating the roof. We met the owner that every day and everything was cleaned up by the time we returned back to the room with the more leak. Would highly recommend we will be returning. The rooms are a bit on the smaller side but well appointed for the basic needs. No laundry available
- Arnaud (9/5): Séjour agréable et parfait - Nous avons séjourné 4 jours dans cet hotel. idéalemement situé à proximité du palais des Doges. hotel style venetien dans un calme parfais. personnel agréable. j'y retournerai sans aucun doute

- Núria (10/5): -
- Margot (8/5): - Wie waren schon mehrfach da.bimmer wieder schön. Auch das Nebenhaus Frühstücksraum ist extrem klein
- Ticho (7/5): - Great location near Piazza San Marco. Kind staff. Bathroom could use renovation. Location is quite noisy at night because of the bar that is located nextdoor.

- Günther (7/5): - Lage TV, Betten, Frühstück
- Emma (10/5): - It was such a lovely property in a great location in Venice. The staff were so friendly and allowed us to leave our bags there on the day of check out until our train in the afternoon. We would absolutely stay here again. The host also gave us some brilliant local recommendations.
- 佳子 (8/5): -
- matthias (6/5): -
- Stanislav (8/5): - Fantastic location, 2 minutes from San Marco and 1 minute from San Zaccaria water transport hub. Right next to a small square with good restaurant, pizzeria, pastry shop etc. Yet very tranquil, hidden in narrow street. Very friendly staff, clean rooms, comfy bed, good breakfast. Good value for money. Sometimes an unpleasant smell in the top floor room. Possibly from a ventilation shaft in the corridor or bathroom.
- María (9/5): -
- salvatore (10/5): - Il confort della stanza e la vicinanza a piazza San Marco e la gentilezza dello staff
- Tate (8/5): Such a fantastic stay, really comfy, warm and cosy! - Very homely and classic Italian decor!
- Ana Iss (10/5): Estancia Maravillosa de 10!! - Fuimos a pasar un finde semana a venecia con nuestra hija pequeña y nuestra experiencia con Locanda ha sido de lo mejor ,ubicación perfecta cerca de todo pero a la vez tranquilo,habitación espaciosa y limpisima igual que el baño, las camas tanto la nuestra como la de la niña súper cómodas con sabanas de calidad,vamos si vuelvo a Venecia con los ojos cerrados volvería!!!
Y mil gracias por todos los detalles que han tenido con nosotros,hace que un hotel de 4 estrellas se convierta para nosotros en uno de 5!! Me gusto todo!!!
- Michaela (10/5): - Looked like the photos, was great overall
- Kathi (10/5): -
- Katharine (8/5): Great location for seeing Venice as well as visiting Burano & Murano - The shower cubicle was small for the size of the room and the way the doors opened made it the tightest squeeze to get into of any shower I have ever used!! Such a shame especially when I’ve stayed here before (but in a different room) and have recommended the hotel to friends previously.
- Jennie (7/5): -
- ALPER (5/5): -
- Robert (10/5): - Wyjątkowe miejsce, które bardzo polecamy i do którego na pewno wrócimy :). Czysty piękny pokój w stylu weneckim z ładnym widokiem. Bardzo miła obsługa i przesympatyczny pomocny Pan (właściciel hotelu), dostaliśmy mapkę i polecono nam najlepsze miejsca do zjedzenia w okolicy. Codziennie jest dokładnie sprzątany pokój, dobre śniadania i miła Pani obsługująca. W pokoju jest klimatyzacja. Lokalizacja jest dużym plusem, wszędzie jest bardzo blisko i na tramwaj wodny i na plan Świętego Marka, cała okolica hotelu jest świetna. Jeśli się jeszcze zastanawiasz czy warto to naprawdę jesteśmy zadowoleni z całego pobytu w hotelu i w porównaniu do wielu przeglądanych ofert to trafiła się perełka.

- KAREN CRISTINA (10/5): Acogedor -

- Eileen (8/5): Very convenient and accommodating - Location was excellent, staff were helpful, room was clean. Nice and warm. We were in an annexe but very close by and recently refurbished No lift if you’re travelling with lots of luggage
- Federica (10/5): Soggiorno nel cuore di Venezia. - Posizione strategica e perfetta per girare Venezia. Vicina a Piazza San Marco e alla riva degli Schivoni. Comodo per raggiungere l’aeroporto grazie ai battelli da prendere alla Riva. Personale gentile. Possibilità di lasciare valigie anche dopo check out. Su una piazza ricca di locali e bar. Camera grande, luminosa. Bagno comodo. .
- Aksana (10/5): -
- Denis (10/5): Too short but so sweet! - The apartment has such charm, the staff are wonderful and the location is terrific. Marco made our short visit to Venice very comfortable, and the breakfast was superb. There are so many good restaurants just around the corner that choosing one for dinner was quite simple. Even in January Venice is magical. Nothing bad to say at all.
- Drouin (8/5): Satisfait de mon séjour. - L’emplacement, le cadre,la propreté. Petit déjeuner trop à l’étroit.

- Danielle (7/5): - The host was amazing! Beautiful balcony to enjoy in our room! The area was close to train transport and 5 minutes walk to San Marco. Possible mold on the ceilings
- Anna-Maria (10/5): -
- SILFES (9/5): Classic Venetian-style hotel with great location near attractions, friendly staff, many nearby shops - Locanda Al Leon has an excellent location in Venice, very close to the canal arrival point and just a short walking distance away. From here, it’s easy to access all the main tourist attractions on foot. There are many restaurants and souvenir shops around the hotel, which makes the stay very convenient for shopping and dining.
The reception staff were very friendly and helpful, and they assisted us smoothly with the check-in process. The hotel has a classic Venetian style with antique-finish furniture, which we really liked and felt added a unique charm to the stay.
The bathroom was quite small, but it was manageable and acceptable for a short-term stay. Overall, a great choice for travelers who want a well-located, traditional-style hotel surrounded by shops and attractions. bathroom quiet small.

- Paola (10/5): Ottima soluzione centrale e accogliente - Posizione centralissima, camera piccola ma accogliente, ben arredata e molto pulita. Staff molto gentile e disponibile. Si sentono parecchio i rumori provenienti dalla strada e dalle altre stanze.
- Edgar (9/5): - Todo perfecto, ubicación, habitación cómoda y aislada del ruido, también muy bonita, todo impecable a nivel de limpieza, la atención por parte del chico también perfecta, nos dio un mapa y el horario de autobuses para el aeropuerto de Treviso. Faltó un espejo de pie en la habitación, por decir algo.
- Matteo (10/5): ottima esperienza - tutto niente
- Camila (10/5): -
- aanaya2t (10/5): - Ubicación... Muy cerca de puntos de interés justa atrás de plaza San Marcos
- Corine (10/5): Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans cet endroit. - L"emplacement de l'hôtel était idéal pour nous avec des restaurants proches, la chambre spacieuse et calme. Si je chipote, peut être une étagère dans la salle de bain pour poser les affaires de toilette.
- Sandra (10/5): Un lugar con un encanto especial a minutos del centro - La maravillosa localización en la que se encuentra, a penas unos minutos del puente de los suspiros y la plaza San Marco. El personal que nos atendió en recepción lo hizo de manera impecable, atenta y amable. Es la segunda vez que vamos y sin duda repetiremos Creo que nada....todo lo que puedo decir es bueno
- Malaika (9/5): Mittendrin. Wohlfühlmomente. Perfekt. - Das Frühstück war okay, eher eine kleine Auswahl, aber ausreichend. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Das Zimmer ist wunderbar herzig im venezianischen Stil ausgestattet. Die Lage ist hervorragend - alle wichtigen Sehenswürdigkeiten sind in unmittelbarer Nähe. Preis-Leistung wirklich sehr gut und sehr zu empfehlen. Der Frühstücksraum ist mir zu klein und zu eng, weshalb ich es dann vorgezogen habe, in einem Café frühstücken zu gehen. In der Nacht kann man die Menschen von den Restaurants draussen hören, aber es ist absolut im Rahmen, ausserdem ist man in einer Stadt.
- Gautam (8/5): - Excellent location near the canal and water taxi stops and very close to St Marks square. Just be prepared for small rooms and small breakfast room. I think this is the case for most hotels in the area. We found the room to be a little stuffy as the a/c didn’t work at that time of year (Oct) so we had to open the window which meant we heard all the noise from the square below through the night.
- PilGu (10/5): My family trip was excellerated by Locanda Al Leon - Location is close to the San Marco Square and delicious restaurants area. Above all, it located to next to famous local bakery. Clean and hot waters are plenty at the shower as well as their room clean is perfect. Hard to find.
- SFBW (9/5): Locanda Al Leon provided us w/ the perfect home base to enjoy Venice from. Many thanks to the staff - Locanda Al Leon is a wonderful, charming, comfortable place to stay in Venice that we enjoyed very much during our 3-night stay in September. [It is also one of the accommodations recommended by Rick Steves]. While it's very conveniently located close to St. Mark's Square and only a 4-minute walk from the San Marco-San Zaccaria Vaporetto stop, it's also quiet and nicely located just off the delightful plaza Campo Santi Filippo e Giacomo that has some good restaurants, bars and bakeries. [We especially enjoyed Ristorante Pizzeria Pesciolino D'oro just around the corner as well as the bakery Pasticceria Bonifacio.] The staff is wonderful, very friendly and helpful. Our "room" was the entire, very spacious top floor of the nearby Ca Marcella annex and included a good-sized, beautiful bedroom, nice modern bathroom, living room w/ sofa, full kitchen and TWO private balconies, each with a table & chairs (& one had a view St. Mark's Basilica rooftop)! The balconies were a perfect place to enjoy a late-night glass of wine under the stars w/ a peaceful view of the Venetian rooftops. A nice, very adequate continental breakfast was available each morning on the top floor of the main hotel building and was a much-appreciated amenity. For us, Locanda Al Leon was a fantastic find for our stay in Venice and we would definitely stay again! Like most accommodations in Venice, Locanda Al Leon doesn't have an elevator and most rooms are accessible only by a flight or two (or three!!) of stairs. Carrying your luggage up can be a challenge but thankfully the hotel's staff is very kind and helpful in assisting. Provided you able, the stairs were a small price to pay for such wonderful accommodations!
- elisabetta (10/5): - Camera e bagno molto puliti e dotati di accessori e comfort, letti comodi, personale gentilissimo e molto disponibile. Ottimo servizio post check-out che permette di lasciare i bagagli qualche ora in più e di poter utilizzare una toilette dopo aver già lasciato la camera. Ottima posizione a ridosso di San Marco e ottimo rapporto qualità-prezzo. Buona colazione in ambiente accogliente. Lo raccomando di certo.
- Laura (10/5): -
- Kirk (9/5): Overall clean, friendly, and extremely well located. - I was a little nervous about booking a room at this hotel, but it was great in the end. I couldn't even find it initially as it is very unassuming. The location was really fantastic though, and it had everything I was looking for-clean, comfortable, well located. I have a couple nitpicks... I didn't see any way to mark the room "do not enter" so a cleaning person did try to come in (after knocking and calling out, in fairness). The desk is open 8am to 9pm which could be a problem if you need to leave early or have a problem late. Wasn't an issue for me though. I thought it was drafty the first night but soon realized I hadn't closed the door to the balcony.
- Chiara (6/5): -
- James (10/5): - I like listening and looking out our windows to the plaza! Breakfast area. Much to small.
