Apart from the fact that i would absolutely reccommend the Bauer in everyway, the position of this hotel is amazing. We where next door to everything there is to see and do in Venice. Amazing canal view, next to San Marco's square, just a minute from transportation to all destinations in Venice. The hotel itself is a Gem and decorated... more

Wife and I stayed for 3 nights in a 1-bed suite. Overall, you get what you expect to get at a high-end Venetian hotel: classic decor, impeccable service, a bit of refurbishment needed here and there...all at a very high price. Venice in general is one of the most expensive places on earth, so a high-end hotel in Venice will... more

The Il Palazzo was a beautiful hotel in a great location. My fiance booked it for our honeymoon, and arriving by water taxi was a surprise I will never forget! The staff were attentive and the hotel was a quiet and peaceful haven in a perfect location. All of that said, the Il Palazzo had a few little, easy-to-make changes... more

We arrived in Venice on the Orient Express and wondered how our hotel would top that. It certainly did! Our first suite (room 115) was on the Piano Nobile and very grand, with silk walls and huge Murano chandeliers, but it looked onto a brick wall. The next morning, as soon as I mentioned that "a view would be nice"... more

A Wonderful hotel in a fabulous location , 2 blocks from Piazza San Marco. Quiet and peaceful. Comfortable. A wonderful, friendly cheerful staff. Beyond our expectations! Great food! Beautiful inside and out. Water taxi brings you and your luggage to the front door , where the gondolas are waiting for you. Near shops and cafes. more

We have stayed at many different hotels during previous visits to vednice, but this time we decided to splurge and get a historic hotel in an amazing location. We stayed twice at the Bauer Il Palazzo during this cruise in and out of Venice. At the begining of our trip we had three junior suites that were all different but... more

We stayed at Bauer when came to visit the Biennale Arcitecture exposition last year. And I never had to regret the choice! The hotel manages to keep and trasmit the genuine antique Vanetian atmosphere and to combine it with top-class modern levels of comfort and service! If you want to get a full immersion into the spirit of this wonderful... more

We stayed in Bauer for 4 nights including the New Years. The stay was a perfect Venetian vacation. The place has a sense of a genuine palazzo without being rusty. Location is hard to beat. Right on the Grand Canal with St Marco Sq only a couple of blocks away. The staff was very attentive and constantly delivered as expected... more

We always stay in five star hotels and we expected the Bauer Il Palazzo to be one but were disappointed. I read through the other reviews and will agree that the location is fantastic and the 7th floor breakfast and view are amazing but the rooms and staff at the front desk need to be spruced up. Our room was... more
