Hotel Barocci and its wonderful staff will not disappoint you in your adventures to Venice. Arriving on water taxi on the Grand Canal is somewhat like a fairytale. It heightens the imagination and brings out the wonder in an adult. Its small on approach, but sweet. out room was canal vew upon request and was so worth it. Just to look out every once in a while and see what was going on on the canal. the business of everyday, the quiet nights. magical. The staff will help you with what you need. the breakfast is more than adequate with cappuccino and even prosecco if you choose. Scrambled eggs well cooked with crispy bacon was my main go to. my husband loved the yogurt parfaits he made with fuits and granola. plenty of meats and chese ad bisquits too. The terrace at the top of the hotel is perferfect for an evening drink, and to gaze out at the lights bouncing off the water. But even tho the pasta we had was to perfection, the food and snack choices were not so good. Drinks were also limited on the terrace, But the first floor bar was a full bar and always someone to serve you. The location is a little out of the way until you find your path to St Marks, Dorsoduro Bridge or the Rialto. Consider it fun watching all the other people wondering where they are and wondering how to get where they are going...Thats Venice Most importantly enjoy it, and must do St Marks square after dark. Enjoy the big bands. Spend the money. sit and have an aperitif or cappuccino. Its a memory you wont forget. Never be in a hurry If you find the little MARTINI BAR on one of the little side streets, good food. All the restaurant's around the square are good you wont be disappointed But this is about the Barocci. It a great choice.It also has a really sweet private back courtyard for breakfast or to just sit. I cant say enough about all of the stafing at the desk and on the phone and in the reservations dept, and of ciurse the hosekeeping and kitchen. All wonderful

“Stay here!”

A beautiful boutique hotel right on the grand canal. Take the orange line from the airport right to the St. Angelo stop. Every interaction with hotel staff was fantastic! The front desk staff was super helpful and patient with all of our questions. The rooms and public spaces were super clean.

“Lovely hotel, great staff and good location”

Generally this was a great stay. The staff are all friendly and efficient. Hotel very clean. Good location and right next to a stop on the river. Breakfast was fine. Can walk to the main sites within 15/20mins. But the shower was awful, kept going between boiling hot and cold constantly pul… more

Generally this was a great stay. The staff are all friendly and efficient. Hotel very clean. Good location and right next to a stop on the river. Breakfast was fine. Can walk to the main sites within 15/20mins. But the shower was awful, kept going between boiling hot and cold constantly pulsing. This was the same every time we used it. Such a shame as otherwise the hotels lovely.

“Think Twice.”

I gave this a fairly high rating on Agoda. This is a very well located hotel. We have stayed before. Clean, excellent breakfast, excellent service in bar/lounge with friendly staff. However, we had purchased a kilo of excellent Sardinian cheese in Lucca which we brought with us to Venice to bring home to USA. We put it in “ mini bar”(lots of room). We checked out and checked our bags while we went to a favorite restaurant for lunch. Upon returning we realized we had left the cheese in the room. We inquired and were told such items are brought to front desk. Apparently not. My wife, with front desk staff member returned to room. No cheese. The front desk staff contacted maid who said nothing was left in room. Ok, we are out 40 euros. But stealing the cheese? We will be looking at other accommodations in future. As said nice personnel in bar. Clean rooms. But can’t tolerate liars.
