Locanda Casa Petrarca

I stayed there when they had the floods. It’s more of a Bed And Breakfast than a hotel, which has its advantages. Here is my honest review. Pros- GREAT staff, normally 1 or 2 during day. Very helpful!!!! Breakfast was simple, but good. Location was excellent!!!! Older furniture that matches the decor and charming. Shared bathroom was not an issue. Same as a house. CLEAN Very quiet location Cons When the staff is not there sometimes during the day and not at night, you have no access to the small dining room. So if you are wanting to go in and relax while reading the paper or laptop, you can’t. And there’s not a typical lobby to sit down in. So your room is the only option. No TVs. To me this wasn’t necessarily an issue. I normally went for a run in the morning, came back, cleaned up, and I was gone for the day. To end, I enjoyed my stay. The staff, cleanliness and location were the key points that I normally look for.

Location is very good. Breakfast is great. Property is old and ragged. Room extremely small that I have to put my suitable on bed to open. Not kettle or drinking water in room. I won’t recommend it at all

Venice was quite hot and consequently the lack of AC made it difficult to sleep even with the overhead ceiling fan. Hotel is lovely and at a quite reasonable price point for it's location. If you book, get detailed information about how to best access the hotel including precise directions via landmarks. It is a great location but difficult to find by Google Maps or other maps. Take water us from train station to Rialto.... it's well worth it. Easy 5 minute walk from there with suitcase trolly with no bridges to negotiate. Breakfast was simple but adequate with coffee or cappuccino offered.. with croissants, fruit, juice and hard boiled eggs...and traditional Italian fair....Hosts we're very helpful and accommodating.

Loved it, room is small, but has everything you need and very clean and comfortable. The breakfast was lovely and the breakfast room so quaint and the position unbeatable, quiet yet close to everything.

Good locationa and clean Beds a little saggy Breakfast not great and limited sometimes meats and cheese not put out Ssuprised to be asked to pay for second cup of espre

This hotel has previously been advertised as providing AC in the amenities listed. So naturally, when I stayed here, I was under the impression there would be AC, but when I arrived I found out that there was not. It is EXTREMELY HOT, even with a fan. I do not recommend unless you are accustomed to no AC. I have elevated this to several unhelpful members of Expedia’s staff, who did not offer any solution. Keep in mind that Expedia has no interest in ensuring that you have a good experience, as their lack of service recovery has been disappointing. They did remove AC from the amenities, but have refused to make it right otherwise. We’ll NEVER book through Expedia again.

The rooms are alittle small but it’s in a great location and the couple that own the place are so nice and friendly ,they make you feel like home 😊😊😊😊

This property is in a great location and has a very lovely breakfast! The rooms are very small but fine.

Locanda Casa Petrarca is located in Rialto. It is so convenient walking distance to Saint Marco and Accademia. The host upgraded our room to a deluxe room with a canal view which is a rare bonus. The room is very clean and spacious. The host is very accommodating and cook scramble eggs for us which was not on the breakfast menu. Staff is very friendly. I will definitely recommend my friends to stay at this hotel. Value for money.

The property is small, but clean, modernized (with an elevator if needed) and very nice given it is located in such an ancient building. In the picture below the sign is a canal with gondolas going past! The location is fantastic-a short walk to St. Mark's square or Rialto Bridge, where the water taxi will take you directly to the airport. Valentina was very nice and provided us with everything we needed, including a very nice breakfast. When we left for the airport, we forgot our passports, Valentina arranged to have someone bring them to the airport. Superb visit and place, would go back tomorrow!
