We were here with the entire family. All of our rooms connected on the top floor and I forget how many there were. This hotel is very old and is in need of upgrades. this was our first trip to venice. While the city itself is something to be seen at least once, i would pass on the hotel. The... more

Stayed with my wife for our Christmas holiday and couldn't have been more pleased given some of the criticisms of the hotel we read prior to our visit. I can't speak to those reviews be we thoroughly enjoyed or stay. We had a partial canal view room which was very spacious and well appointed. Also the view couldn't be beat--there... more

When trying to decide on a place to stay in Venice I had a very hard time deciding. I narrowed my choices down to The Gritti Palace, The Daniela, and The Bauer Il Palazzo. I am SO ELATED I CHOSE THE GRITTI!!! You may be trying to plan a special trip of a lifetime, as I was. The other hotels... more

The last time we stayed at the Gritti Palace was in January 2000 and it was nothing short of opulent and divine. This visit was a different story.

I stayed at the Hotel Gritti Palace in 2004 just before the Atens Olympics and I enjoyed the hotel except for the fact that I got stuck in the hotel room bathroom for 2 hours! There was a phone in the bathroom but I was too embarrased to call the front desk and tell them I was stuck! The rooms... more

Venice is beautiful any time of the year, and in September can be glorious. Was just there to check out the architecture biennale, and in the hotel fan into a very famous american fashionista who happened to be staying there as well. but no surprise, Gritti attracts a very posh crowd, international, and yet remains still small, chic, and classic.... more

this is just the best place to stay in venice. The staff did everything to make my self and my little dog feel welcome. The food is expensive but it's worth the experience. It isn't cheap but if your looking for a palace hotel this is the one. more
