Canal-side boutique hotel in Dorsoduro with private dock
Location & Access
Overlooking the San Vio Canal, this 17th century Venetian town house lies in the Dorsoduro district, 250 meters from both the Academy of Fine Arts and the Peggy Guggenheim Collection. The hotel has a private dock that allows water taxi and gondola access directly at the entrance, eliminating the need to carry luggage over cobblestones. Accademia Vaporetto Stop is 250 meters away, and boats to Giudecca Island leave from the nearby Zattere pier.

All rooms provide flat-screen satellite TV and free Wi-Fi, with some offering a balcony overlooking the canal and others featuring modern furnishings. The rooms are furnished with characteristic Venetian furniture and modern comforts, including tea and coffee making facilities. Guests can choose from classic double rooms, superior rooms with canal views, and quadruple rooms suitable for families.
Dining & Breakfast
Breakfast is a varied buffet that includes fresh pastries, cereals, fruit, and hot options such as eggs and pancakes. In the summer, guests can enjoy a cocktail or traditional spritz on the terrace overlooking the canal. The hotel also offers a bar with a selection of drinks and light snacks, as well as breakfast in the room for those who prefer to dine privately.
