We spent 3 days in a peaceful, warm, and very welcoming atmosphere. The location is very close to the bus station (about 8–10 minutes), in a quiet area with a view of the canal. The hosts (Mr. Matteo and a lady—his wife, I believe) were absolutely wonderful. Upon our arrival, they sent us a message on WhatsApp asking what time we would arrive so we wouldn’t have to wait outside (guests receive keys to both the entrance and their room). When we were leaving, since it was raining, they kindly invited us to stay in the room longer if our flight was later. One really lovely touch was the breakfast, which is brought to your room in a basket at the time of your choosing. You feel pampered—like you’re on a picnic. It’s a very generous breakfast (we usually ended up returning half of it!). We wholeheartedly recommend this place!

The most critical parts of our stay as a family is definitely the location and the breakfast. This place fulfilled all our expectations and more. It was very accessible after the bus stop from our parking place outside of Venice. The breakfast came in a basket and was delicious. It had everything from jam packed croissants and and type of jam you could think of. The location was on the left side of the grand canal so to go to Major locations like the San Marcos square, you had to either walk from the bridge or take a gondola. Even though this was the case, everywhere we visited was a maximum of 25 minutes away, that wasn’t really a problem since the walking in Venice was basically all sceneries. We stayed there with 2 kids and the comfort was unimaginable aswell. We got a really big bathroom either 2 queen sized beds all with canal views. The staff was also very friendly and they supplied us with anything that we really needed. 100/10 definitely would recommend for everyone.

Loved everything

Alle Corte Rossa was wonderful! The location was quick to reach by foot from the bus dropoff, and was quiet and restful at night. Canal-side views meant you felt immediately in Venice. The breakfast basket was a delight to discover every morning. Finally, the staff was helpful and welcoming.

Staying at Alla Corte Rossa was a highlight of our trip to Italy. The Hotel is within easy walking distance from Venezia Santa Lucia station and is centrally located in a quiet area close to many delightful places including the Peggy Guggenheim Museum and Cannaregio. We stayed in a very comfortable room with lovely historic ambience, comfortable beds, plenty of space and beautiful views of the canal right outside our windows (which opened with ease for fresh air and the sounds of Venice). Our host Matteo was unfailingly courteous and friendly with great local knowledge. Lisa was highly attentive and organised the most wonderful and generous breakfast baskets delivered to our room each morning filled with lovely local freshly baked goods, snacks, yoghurts and coffee with different offerings each day. Highly recommended!!

Check in was smooth and at 12 noon which was very nice.

Needed a second set of keys, as reception is not always open during the day-this resulted in one person being locked out until the other person came with the key.

Absolutely everything was great! They were really warm, kind, and hospitable towards us. Also, the room was quite large and comfortable with all of the facilities and amenities that you could wish for! 10 stars! The breakfast was amazing and it was always served on time. As for the location, it was near the train station so when you are arriving or departing, you don't have to carry the large luggages for long periods of time. It is much better to stay far from the main attractions and closer to the public transport for this reason. This is very important as you have to carry 30 kg luggages across the bridges and there is no way to pull the luggages across these bridges - you literally have to carry them because of the way how the bridges have been constructed throughout the Venice.

Matteo was very helpful and friendly and we loved that breakfast was brought up to our room every morning - fresh warm croissants. A lot of the communication was done through WhatsApp which was also very convenient for us. The room was noticably cleaned every day we were out which was a lovely suprise. The bed was firm but comfortable, the pillows were memory foam so also very comfortable. There was a fan in the room which was great as the weather was quite hot. If we were to come back to Venice, we would stay here again.

The shower head didn't seem to stay up high when the water was on, but perhaps this was my error. It wasn't a huge problem so I did not raise it with Matteo. The fridge produced a lot of heat and as we weren't using it we actually unplugged it, again not a big problem and easily solved.

Walking distance to the train station, great breakfast

The stairs are very high. It is hard to go up with heavey luggage.

The apartment was good for three people: one big bedroom, one large bathroom and a living room, where the sofa is transformed into a bed for the third person. The location is quiet, perfect for sleeping well and the breakfast is served on the ground floor (croissants, yogurts, biscuits, orange juice, cappuccino and tea...lots of choices). The bed is really soft and the bathroom is well cleaned. The room is located on the third floor so the panorama is beautiful.

The third pillow was not so comfortable and a bit harder for me. When we arrived we had to wait 30 minutes to enter the apartment because they should be finished to clean it, even if I told them my arrival time 1 hour before (and it was in the check-in time 12:45).

Really was a lovely place to stay, very clean and comfortable, great view and the breakfast basket was very quaint, I personally think this location is much better than being in the centre, it’s quiet and peaceful and still only a 15 min walk from the main centre, with beautiful bridges and scenery on your way to the centre, plenty of room. Very pleased and would stay again if I came back to Venice xx

A little bit hard to find once you actually reach the location, perhaps a “receptions sigh above the door or coming out of the wall would help - loved everything else about the room 😊
