Besides being in a great location and spotlessly clean, its the little things that make this hotel great. The tea and coffee making facilities in the room are great. Not a European tradition I know, but it makes all the difference. They have a proper hairdryer and not one of those toys with no power, attached to the wall. The... More

I recently spent 3 days at this hotel. The hotel is charming the staff was extremely helpful at front desk and breakfast room. Had a great room that was at the end of the hall which had access to an outside terrace that was delightful with sofa, chairs and tables. Great for having a glass of wine in the evening... More

Venice is truly one of the most magical places in the world. Not any picture I have ever seen does justice to the beautiful city built on water. As my water taxi entered the canals for the first time, I felt like I entered another planet. I was instantly in love. Hotel American Dinesen only complemented our perfect three day... More

A good hotel at an excellent location - close to il Ponte dell'Accademia. The restaurant is serving breakfast only - the breakfast was good, but not special. And there are enough opportunities to have a good brunch closeby.

Well... unless you visit the place, you will not understand the words I write. Venice is no doubt, one of the most beautiful cities and Hotel American Dinesen is also another example to illustrate this. Very beautiful property, very clean and very wonderfully managed by a great team of hotel staff! From check in to check out everything went very... More

We stayed for 2 nights in a Canal View Room with Balcony on third floor. Room was very well appointed and had a jug too to make cuppa which we found a bonus in Italy. Breakfast was included & great value too. The staff were very professional & friendly especially the porter who took my extremely heavy bag up 3... More

We found the location to be perfect. It is on Dorsoduro on a quiet side canal within sight of the Grand Canal. The Accademia is just a block away so you not only have the vaporetto stop there, you also have easy access to San Marco via the Accademia Bridge and all sorts of directional signs leading you "home" as...

We chose this hotel for its excellent reviews and availability of quadruple rooms. Indeed, we were very pleased with our superior quad room on the top floor. It was plenty of space for our family of four (two kids, ages 11 and 15.) We had 4 single beds and a spacious modern bath. Wonderful balconies and windows. The view from... More
