I booked this hotel having studied all of the trip advisor reviews and it’s true, it is a fantastic hotel. Everything exceeded our expectations. We arrived by water taxi (95 Euros) from the airport late in the evening and were greeted by name. Our room, 103, an inside room facing the beautiful bar was lovely. I had worried that we... more

Having booked this hotel based on the reviews on Trip Advisor I was confident the hotel would be what we were looking for. The many great reviews still do not do this hotel justice. The hotel is beautiful and charming, location is fantastic and the service is absolutely impeccable. Having stayed in many hotels in Europe I have never experienced... more

I've never stayed at a hotel with better service. From the staff greeting you by name when you arrive, to the owner (Matteo) making you whatever you want for breakfast, or making a dinner reservation on your behalf... these people really know how to make your Venetian holiday enjoyable. Antique styled rooms are well appointed, with nice clean reasonably new... more

Well, where to start? From being greeted by name by all the staff upon first arriving by water taxi at the private water gate, to the beautifully furnished room and the ridiculously scenic views of the Rialto bridge and Grand Canal from the terrace where we ate the owner's fantastic fresh omelettes every morning (eggs from his grandmother's farm -... more

After disembarking a 12 night Mediteranean cruise, we had one extra night in Venice before returning home. We wanted it to be special. And it certainly was. The Al Ponte Antico is a beautiful hotel. The location is great. The views of the canal and Rialto bridge are wonderful. But the most outstanding feature to this hotel is the owner,... more

We stayed at the Hotel Al Ponte Antico for two nights, and I did a ton of research prior to booking a hotel in Venice for our first trip to this amazing city. I read through all of the tripadvisor reviews, and read all of them for this particular establishment. As I browsed through each review, I thought to myself... more

We were treated like royalty. Being greeted by name as our water taxi pulled up to the private dock was just a taste of the wonderful hospitality of Matteo and his staff. The rooms are fabulous, the location can't be beat, the breakfast is marvelous, but what made our stay truly remarkable was the attention we received from everyone at... more

Unbelievable service and location! They were marvelous in all areas of their establishment! We were greeted by the owner and given a short tour with details of the restoration of the property. It was absolutely beautiful! Our very large suite had a king and a also a queen sleeper in a separated sitting area. Our three windows opened directly onto... more

We had a 4 day stay. All the detail is covered in previous reviews. The terrace location, atmosphere and views are superb, the Spritz's are refreshing. I travel on business worldwide and choose the tried and trusted chains and receive good but impersonal attention, the Al Ponte Antico is the exact opposite with a very personal service. The management of... more
