HOTEL PALAZZO ABADESSA

We absolutely loved our stay Palazzo Abadessa. The staff, location, breakfast, and hotel decor was excellent. Particularly we loved the courtyard which was a quintessential Venetian experience. The only critique was that for our final night there we switched to the 'small classic room #14', which was uncomfortably small and the bed was hard as a rock. I'd recommend any of the larger room which are certainly worth the higher price. Overall we would highly recommend and will stay again if ever in Venice.

This is a fantastic hotel with great staff especially Barwin who organised our water taxi pickup, gave us directions and suggestions for tours. Our room was small, but we only slept in it. Very close to restaurants and shops, Loved having breakfast i( plentiful) in the lovely garden. Would definitely recommend this hotel

The establishment is a picturesque epoque house featuring Murano chandeliers and silk wallpapers. Had the most romantic weekend getaway with my significant other. The staff were great and helped with table reservations. Arriving to the 4-5 meters high guest room wherein complimentary Zonin prosecco was waiting was a nice and tasty welcoming gesture. Complimentary afternoon cocktails at the garden was also a nice chance to see other guests. The hotel (as anything in Venuce) was easy to reach from Ali Laguna (public water transport departing from airport) pier by foot although I would recommend co sidering taking the costlier private water taxi (arranged by the hotel staff upon request) just for the experience. The palazzo has personality and characteristics which definitely took our first time visit to Venice to another level in comparison to if we had stayed at a more modern high-end hotel.

My wife and I had planned to take a symbolic wedding ceremony in Venice. We had a look at a lot of hotels and eventually chose Abadessa Palazzo because of the beautiful interior, own garden and very pleasant staff who helped us with the organization. The hotel met all our expectations, we had a good time here and happy went on a honeymoon. I would like to thank Michele, at the time when the ceremony was almost cancelled due to circumstances he agreed to help us, gave a amazing speech in italian. Michele, thank you from all my heart

A beautiful Venetian hotel in the mainly residential area of Canareggio. About a 40 minute walk from the piazzale Roma. The hotel sits off a small, quiet, residential square 1 block back from the Strada Nova. Walk up either of the two narrow streets and after a few twists you're in the square and looking at the gate to the Palazzo Abadessa's lovely garden. At the other end of the square is the bridge over a canal to the fondamenta Priuli. From the bridge you can see the water-based entrance to the hotel. The reception area and desk are small and in keeping with the hotel's focus on its guests. The ground floor is dominated by a beautifully appointed hall with tables, chairs, and sofas. You can take breakfast, afternoon tea, and drinks here. The double stair case on the left of the hall ascends to a gallery-landing and on to the upper hall with the room doors off it. This upper hall is delightful and filled with Venetian art books, furniture in-keeping with the age of the hotel and is almost like living in a National Trust property. Bedrooms vary in size and facilities. Ours had a small entrance hall with a low door to the huge bedroom and a tall door to the roomy 2-person bathroom. We had a view of the square. The hotel offered us a complimentary bottle of tasty prosecco. Great, friendly staff were happy to help with any queries we had and were accommodating when we eventually checked out and returned after a damp morning to reclaim our bags. I'd love to stay at the Palazzo Abadessa again.
