Guest Reviews
- Jekaterina (9/5): -
- Amanda (10/5): Lovely stay , I would definitely stay there again - Great service and Breakfast from Sunil and Barbara was extremely helpful when it comes to Venice. Great to have that personal touch. Hotel has a great central location, I recommend looking it up on street view so you can workout which restaurant it is above . In all a fantastic stay . Nothing we didn’t like - but be aware it has a lot of steps to enter the hotel and no lift. Sunil is on hand to help with you bags though .
- Lizzy71 (8/5): Ideale per il mio prossimo fine settimana a Venezia! - Posizione eccellente, colazione discreta, struttura storica ristrutturata internamente con gusto e attenzione al dettaglio e mantenendo l'anima veneziana.
Molto apprezzata l'assistenza telefonica della Customer Care che ci ha fornito ottimi consigli per la visita alla città, ristorantini e visite culturali. Pur essendo gentile, il signor Sunil parlava solo inglese e non italiano.
Da migliorare l'ingresso delle parti comuni dell'edificio, in particolare la piccola corte interna che andrebbe più curata con vasi di fiori e il gusto che contraddistingue "La villeggiatura".
Piccolo frigorifero in camera leggermente rumoroso.
- Stephen (9/5): -
- Louis (9/5): Allez-y - La maison de charme est très accueillante, surtout Barbara ! la chambre était très spacieuse, très propre et idéalement située pour visiter Venise à pied. L'insonorisation entre les chambres devrait être améliorée (surtout le sanibroyeur) et le petit déjeuner manque d'originalité et de renouvellement
- Rob (9/5): -
- Brendan (10/5): Perfect for 2 - Fantastic holiday. Away from rhe hustle of a hotel was a quaint romantic location perfect. Staff were fantastic Bothing
- Elitsa (10/5): - Beautiful property, great location and amazing hosts!
- Helen (8/5): Lovely base for our stay in Venice - It was exactly what it said it was!
Staff very welcoming and friendly Nothing
- Paweł (9/5): Świetnie spędzony czas - Obsługa na znakomitym poziomie. Zawsze pomocna i podpowiada super opcję zwiedzania miasta. Polecam
- Garabatos (8/5): Perfect location to spend 2-3 days in Venice in a nice and comfortable accomodation. We really enjoyed the family and pe - Location was perfect, just 5’ walking from the boat and just next to Rialto Mercato.
Very clean, good breakfast and Suny & Barbara were super helpful hosts and very friendly! Our room (Standard Double) was on the attic and it got a bit warm in the evening, but there is nothing bad about this property!

- Cecile (5/5): - Emplacement
Barbara est top. Rentrer à 21h15 du resto, le monsieur qui gère les lieux, descendant en caleçon et marcel!!!!!!
pour voir ce que nous faisions, avec un regard très désagréable!
Nous buvions juste un verre d’eau!

- Kemeri90 (9/5): Super BNB à Venise - Super accueil et chambre spacieuse, petit dej plus que correct. Chambre mal insonorisée, on en entend la chasse d'eau des chambres adjacentes
- Roberto (10/5): - Personale gentilissimo, struttura pulita e accogliente. Colazione abbondante e molto buona. Letto molto comodo.
- Evelina (9/5): Venezia indimenticabile - Ottima posizione a due passi dal Canal Grande, Rialto, antico mercato del pesce.
Piano alto di antica casa veneziana ristrutturata con grande gusto.
Camera spaziosa, luminosa, pulita e dotata di tutti i comfort.
Colazione buona con tempi comodi.
La cosa migliore è stata senza dubbio l’accoglienza, la disponibilità, la gentilezza e la competenza della responsabile: veramente eccellente! La colazione può essere ancora migliorata
- HelenB725 (10/5): Friendly, warm and welcoming - We arrived late due to delayed flight and Sunil was there to welcome us and was always on hand to ensure we were taken care of as needed
- 835olenad (10/5): Comfort and coziness - The hotel has a great location. It is close to the fish market, the Vaporetto stop, and many restaurants and snack bars, as well as the famous Rialto Bridge. The location of the hotel was perfect - near all the carnival events, yet quiet and cozy at the same time. The staff was friendly, and we felt comfortable. Our room was clean and cozy. The breakfast was delightful. We would love to come back here. We recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to visit Venice.

- Navigator21663658164 (10/5): Perfect place to stay! - We had a lovely experience staying at La Villeggiatura. It was beautifully clean and the room was perfect. Barbara and Sunil looked after us incredibly well, Sunil with the breakfast and welcoming us when we arrived late and Barbara helping us with plans, journeys and restaurants. The location couldn't have been better, we would definitely go back there again.
- H9095OIcarmenv (10/5): Excellent - Hi!
If once again in Venice, than, certainly, once again at the excellent, cozy and very very central La Villeggiatura!
- SUSAN (10/5): We are so happy we stayed at La Villegiatura. It was a lovely stay and a great time in Venice. - Great location, beautiful comfy rooms. Very nice continental breakfast. Barbara and Sunil are very friendly and accommodating. Sunil made sure we had wonderful coffee and a great breakfast. Barbara was awesome and gave us some really good tips for restaurants and sightseeing.
- karmensita (9/5): cozy - excellent and excellent (everything)!
- Helga (9/5): -
- claudia (9/5): - Arredo e centralità
- Phuc (9/5): - 1. Good location. Close to Rialto Bridge and St Mark's Square. Lots of good restaurants nearby.
2. The host was friendly and helpful.
3. Room is spacious and clean. 1. I just wish there were a bit more options for breakfast. But regardless, it was pretty good.
2. Also there was no elevator and we had to climb quite many stairs to get to our room. But I understand it is pretty common for hotels in Venice to not have elevators.
- timhenry69 (10/5): A fabulous place to stay in Venice for couples or family minutes from the Rialto bridge - La Villeggiatura is the perfect place in order to enjoy the delights of Venice. Located minutes from the Rialto bridge it is easily accessible by foot to excellent local facilities, including shops and bars, immediately on the doorstep. The water taxi stop at Rialto Mercato, a few minutes walk away, gives access up and down the Grand canal.
The property is in a delightful Venetian building and offers beautifully decorated accommodation with spacious rooms ideal for couples or the family. The breakfast is fantastic and really sets you up for the day.
To top it all the staff are fantastic and really helpful and Barbara who manages the property is a delight and a font of all knowledge re Venice and happy to give advice on where to visit and where to eat.
- drhaseebr (4/5): Location was good however Brakefast needs to be improved and - Brakefast was not good at all. Eggs were cold , juices were of poor quality and very fee items in it. Room was full of mosquitoes and very hot despite opening of windows.
- iang58 (10/5): Extremely helpful host - Excellent stay. From arrival, Barbara could not have done more to make us welcome. She provided us with 2 x daily walking routes for our stay so that we could make the most of Venice.
The room was quiet and comfortable, good bed and en-suite facilities. Location is perfect near the Rialto Mercato and the street has a small selection of restaurants/bars.
- ScarlettOHara13 (10/5): Top place to stay for a weekend in Venice - A wonderful place to stay in Venice. We really enjoyed being in a central location that was also quiet.
It was very comfortable and welcoming.
- Rebecca (9/5): A wonderful place to stay and explore Venice from - The location was excellent. Close to St Marks, The Rialto etc and close to the non-tourist areas too. Lots of local restaurants close by. The Rose Bar next door was perfect for an aperitif. Milk in the room for tea
- Mirco (9/5): Tolle Unterkunft für ein Wochenende in Venedig - Freundliches, helfendes Personal
Sauberkeit Frühstück könnte etwas mehr Auswahl bekommen
- GuilhermeW224 (10/5): Perfect experience - The staff was incredible, the place was perfect cleaned and the infrastructure inside the room was complete.
We truly recommend Villeggiatura as your choice.
- Yonna (10/5): Superb little hotel, wonderful staff! - The breakfast was very good and Sunil went out of his way to ensure every need was met. Barbara is Venetian and has excellent knowledge to impart to visitors. We have visited Venice many times but Barbara recommended places to see that were new to us. Everything was perfect. A loft would be amazing as the stairs up to the hotel are a killer but, being Venice, this cannot happen. We felt much fitter after a week!!
- vy2 (10/5): Beautiful little gem in a vibrant area of Venice. - This beautiful little hotel is a perfect place to stay in Venice. Barbara and Sunil are the perfect hosts, knowledgeable and keen to ensure you get everything you could wish for from your visit. The rooms are comfortable and spacious, the breakfast plentiful and delicious. Barbara, being Venetian, is extremely knowledgeable and a fountain of enthusiasm for everything her beautiful city has to offer. We enjoyed our week long stay very much and thank them both for making it so special.
- 794grainneo (10/5): Enjoyable stay in La Villeggiatura - This accommodation was excellent and very central to all attractions.
A very large and pleasant bedroom with ample storage space.
The hosts were very friendly and helpful. We had breakfast on the last morning which was very good value.
We would book this again.

- Katy (9/5): -
- Marieke (8/5): Geweldig verblijf gehad op zo’m mooie locatie midden in het centrum! Uitgebreid ontbijt en aardig eigenaar met veel tips - Toplocatie!! Klein minpuntje was denk ik de sanibrouilleur
Maar tegenover de locatie en de service te verwaarlozen!
- AdaH310 (10/5): OUR HOME AWAY FROM HOME - So happy to have chosen La Villegiatura as our home away from home during our vacation stay in Venice. Barbara was very welcoming and with a sunny disposition that made us feel like family.. This place is a gem nestled in a perfect spot, very quaint , with breakfast included and all the amenities needed to make it a perfect vacation . If you are on the fence on where to stay, look no more, this is certainly the place you want to be! We are looking forward to staying there again on our next visit! ! Thank you BARBARA for all of your suggestions to places not to miss and excellent dining suggestions!!! Hope to see you and Sunil again on our next vacation to Venice!

- P8798YUdavidd (10/5): Wonderful stay in Venice - La Villeggiatura is very well located, close to Rialto Mercato but just far enough away to avoid the crowds. We received a friendly welcome from Barbara, who gave us helpful advice on places to visit whilst in Venice. The room was excellent, traditional in design, and spacious and very comfortable. Good air conditioning and very quiet at night, Sunil prepared a hearty breakfast every morning, which was very reasonably priced. We enjoyed the mixed seafood hors d'oeuvres at Ostaria al Garanghelo next door and they were also very friendly. Gelato was on hand across the street, and a variety of cafes, eateries and shops. La Villeggiatura is up three flights of steps within an internal courtyard, which was no problem for us, but may be challenging for those with mobility issues. We stayed four nights and would definitely recommend the place, and maybe come back for a second stay one day.
- Ilian (9/5): -
- Monika (9/5): -
- Niclas (9/5): -
- Aurélie (9/5): - Le personnel est vraiment très gentil et vous explique les principaux points de visite selon votre budget et planning. Le petit déjeuner est copieux, de type continental. Le service est impeccable.
Les chambres sont au calme. Je recommande vivement !
- Breann (10/5): Magical! - Amazing location, such a cute neighborhood. Incredibly kind and helpful people. Our flight was cancelled last minute and they helped us with our bags and make new arrangements. Also a wonderful and charming breakfast in the morning. We wish we could have stayed longer and will stay here when we come back to Venice!
- Alireza (10/5): Exceptional -
- Rivas (10/5): Exceptional -
- David (10/5): Exceptional -
- W968BZarlenes (10/5): A Hidden Gem - Our stay at La Villeggiatura was very special. The room was very comfortable and had everything that we needed. Everything was very well thought out and immaculate. Barbara and Sunil took care of all of our needs and made sure that we had the best transportation to the hotel and back to the airport. Using the water taxi, we arrived in twenty minutes directly from the airport and the hotel was virtually a few steps from the dock. With only 6 rooms at the hotel. it is very quiet and feels like home. Can't beat the location with only a 10-15 minute walk to St. Mark's Square. There were several restaurants on our street as well as a place to buy supplies like bottled water.
- George (8/5): Very good -
- Rachel (8/5): - B&B, not hotel
Lots of steps up to the entrance, but did get some help with our bags.
A/C in room was poor and room was not cool enough
Pillows terrible.
Overall, ok place to stay while in Venice.
Barbara was a good host - very helpful information and was pleasant to work with!
- Narges (6/5): Lots of Stairs, no Elevator - Our room was clean and the staff were very friendly and helpful. However, the hotel has a lot of stairs and no elevator, which makes it difficult for anyone with heavy luggage or knee problems — I wouldn’t recommend it in that case.
Breakfast was very basic and could be improved.
- Carolyn (9/5): Brilliant would go back. Just be aware of stairs - Location in Venice very convenient within walking distance of everything close to Rialto Vaporetto stop. Plumbing noise a little off putting in the middle of the night
- Antoine (8/5): Very good -
- Susan (10/5): Highly recommend! - Barbara warmly greeted us on our first day and helped orient us to Venice. Breakfast was wonderful with a nice selection of sweets and savories. Sunil who served us coffee and managed the staff cleaning was so kind and accommodating. Location excellent. Room beautifully decorated and bathroom and amenities were excellent. Lack of elevator but understand that this is Venice and that we were staying in a very old building that has lots of historical charm.
- DayTrip42297555571 (8/5): Well worth staying in magnificent boutique hotel! - The beautiful rooms and shared spaces are magnificently designed. Very well-curated. Bathrooms are so Italian in design. Very contemporary coupled with old world tradition.Perfectto! Service for rooms - did not take away dirty tea cups at end of each day. Very well located!
- Danielle (10/5): - They were very helpful about planning our days (water buses and routes), arranged a water taxi to the airport. We had a great stay in Venice.
- Timothy (10/5): Enjoyed Our Stay In Venice - We really enjoyed our two night stay. The location was convenient to everything without being in the super busy areas. The hostess Barbara was very helpful with directions, transportation and a recommendation for a great concert. The room was spacious and we liked having a coffee maker and access to filtered water. Breakfast was simple but filled us until lunch. It was a little warm while we were there (75 F) and although they have AC they weren’t allowed to use it before mid-May (city ordinance?), so the room was a little warm at night even with the windows open. You do have to take stairs up to the third floor, but they helped with our larger luggage. Overall we were very happy with our stay and would recommend!
- Rakesh (8/5): - Nice ambience, great staff and friendly staff
- Justyna (10/5): - Lovely stay, amazing hosts! Highly recommended!!
- I9095PDdennisp (10/5): Stairway to Heaven - We spent 4 fabulous nights at La Villeggiatura. Barbara the manager went above and beyond our expectations to be sure our experience in Venice was exceptional and it was. The property is spacious and grand. Our room had everything to make our stay comfortable including a remote controlled skylight and mini fridge. The location is absolutely perfect with short walks to major attractions like the Rialto Bridge and St Marks Square but away from the noisy tourist areas. In the morning we joined the other guests for a large selection of delicious breakfast items. We often skipped lunch because we were still full from breakfast. We absolutely loved staying at this wonderful B&B and highly recommend it as one of the best choices for your stay in Venice.
- vilio2022 (10/5): Amazing place - Our second time here, same impression: great location, amazing services, best place for exploring Venice. Barbara, always a pleasure to chat and look for advice, Sunil, ready to help on anything regarding breakfast/housekeeping. We’ll surely be back again!
- 128tillyd (10/5): I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! - I would highly recommend La Villeggiatura! The staff are incredibly friendly and exceptionally helpful. They genuinely care about their customers and went above and beyond to provide any service they could. Their response times were fantastic—very quick, even replying at the end of the day. They also gave me excellent advice on travel from the airport to the hotel. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
- adrianmari0g (10/5): An exceptional place for a relaxing stay - A lovely place very close to the Rialto Bridge, the markets, and not far from Piazza San Marco. Although situated in an old building, the apartment has been exquisitely refurbished making it very comfortable. Our room was big with comfortable beds. Breakfast was lovely! Barbara, our host was extremely helpful and accomodating.
- prunellak2025 (10/5): wonderful stay at La Villeggiatura - La Villeggiatura is a wonderful find - v central and excellent value. The rooms are gorgeous, quiet and v comfortable. Barbara and Sunhil are v gracious hosts and are able to recommend good restaurants close by. This was our second visit and we will return. Highly recommended :)
- Allison (10/5): - Breakfast could be better and better stocked. Manager / owner were polite and tried offering transportation advice early on to and from the airport. Not much to do when raining though as this is not typical hotel. Would recommend staying if you are a physically fit adults who don’t mind stairs and little amenities.
- Allen (10/5): Wonderful visit to the city of Canals, Cathedrals and Cappuccinos! - The breakfast was awesome. It was nice to eat a good breakfast before going out to walk 4 or 5 miles every day. The staff was so helpful offering suggestions of things to see and places to visit after we fueled up for the day. If there could have been less stairs to get to the B&B, that would have been nice. But we realize that most of the places to stay in Venice are the same so we feel we choose wisely for this property.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Wonderful experience. The knowledge Barbara can offer (and did to us) is above and beyond any Venice trip we've had in the past. I can't recommend enough.
- Attilia (8/5): - The location was ideal, walkable to the water taxis. We did a lot of walking and enjoyed all the beautiful sights of Venice.
Barbara was very helpful and knowledgeable.
She answered my questions with patience.
The breakfast was enough and really enjoyed the cappuccinos prepared by her assistant…I apologize don’t remember his name.
We did find the room hot, it was unusually hot in Venice and the a/c was turned off.
We could open the windows but the mosquitoes would come in. We opted for a fan.
- Sunil (9/5): It was a lovely short break that exceeded our expectations. - Great location. Staff were great. Barbara and Sunil were super hosts. Can't think of anything.
- Yvonne (10/5): Incredible in every way - LOVED staying here! Staff was SO nice and helpful. Rooms are beautiful and just as pictured. Breakfast in the morning was lovely and it was great to chat with fellow travelers staying there. Felt very safe staying here traveling as a young solo-female.
- Janet (9/5): Superb -
- Onali (10/5): - Barbara and Sunil were very kind, friendly, helpful and hospitable during our stay and gave excellent service and directions to visit the city of Venice in 1 and half days.
- Terry (10/5): Perfect location, awesome hosts - Perfect location for exploring Venice and the hosts were awesome super helpful - would defo stay again
- Lauren (7/5): Unique place to stay in Venice. - The location was excellent, close by to vaporetto stop and with lots of good restaurants in close reach.
The room itself was very spacious with private bathroom. Nice aesthetic and fairly comfortable bed.
Host was very welcoming and helpful in giving directions around Venice/places to try. She was also kind enough to help carry my suitcase down the stairs at the end of trip ( be advised it is a third floor walk up).
Breakfast is provided every morning in the common area. There were cereals, pastries, fruit, boiled eggs etc. It was a nice opportunity to chat with other guests. Noise is probably the only issue. It's a very old building- part of the charm- but that comes with poor sound proofing and pipes that sound like they are roaring whenever someone uses the bathroom. You can also hear guests in other rooms. I ended up putting in ear plugs to block it out to sleep.
- Pam (10/5): Exceptional -
- Patricia (9/5): Very friendly hospitable staff. Rooms are very clean and comfortable, just a lot of stairs. - Barbara and the team were amazing, they could not do enough to help from advising on Restaurants to getting to the airport. The rooms were very clean and Tidy and there is always someone there to help. There are a lot of stairs to the property travelling with my 83 year old mother I was concerned that several of the hand rails were coming away from the wall.
- Olga (10/5): Exceptional -
- Malini (9/5): We had a lovely stay with my 9yo. Would recommend to others - Lovely place very close to the water taxi stop/ gondolas/ markets and restaurants. Old building but nicely done interiors. Family room was very big and very comfortable beds.Breakfast was lovely too! Barbara was super helpful in helping us plan out our days in Venice with some very useful tips. If you have big luggages maybe difficult to pull through stairs but the staff onsite helped us!
- Andrew (9/5): Superb -
- Apoorva (9/5): It was great. If we are coming again, we would chose it again. - The location is amazing, and the staff is very friendly. It is on the third floor walk up.
- Carherine (10/5): Exceptional -
- Stephen (7/5): Good location, the room was quite enough. Probably wouldn’t stay there again because of the entrance being dark and ding - Location Three flights of stairs.
- Lakshminarasimhan (7/5): Good stay but over rated - Location was excellent with connectivity for water bus & taxis. Rooms were clean and spacious for a family of 3. Felt a bit over rated in booking.com. I booked seeing the 9.1 ratings but actually it was 7+ only
Almost 3-4 floors you need to climb especially with luggages
Pretty old furnitures and you touch it would break easily
Air conditioning wasn't sufficient during the summer and need to get an extra fan to complement
Breakfast was disappointing as there was nothing except bread, cheese and fruits. Nothing warm or cooked
Barbara the lead staff seems to go a bit far in the name of suggestions and advice though we never asked. Personally felt her one way conversations were sarcastic and going over board.
Overall okayish and an over rated hotel.
- Anthony (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing Location, wonderful staff, clean and comfortable room. Everything was great.
- Sarah (10/5): Exceptional -
- Alexandr (10/5): Exceptional - Very friendly personal and nicel location
- Arash (7/5): Good -
- Margaret (10/5): - Our stay was wonderful. Great room, lovely breakfast, fabulous location. Barbara was absolutely incredible. She went above and beyond in giving us helpful tips and helping us figure out how to navigate our way around Venice to see the sites. Only drawback was that it is on the third floor but that seems to be quite common in Venice. Was a truly magical city and would absolutely stay here again.
