My wife and I came off a 12 day cruise on the Norwegian Cruise Ship, The Spirit. We wanted to stay an extra night in Venice. We looked for a convenient and reliable place for an overnight stay. We found this retreat house to be spiritually refreshing with comfortable beds & a delicious breakfast buffet. The staff was fluent in... More

Given that finding reliable accommodation in Venice is not always easy, this is a clean and reliable option in a convenient part of the city. Away from the tourist hordes of San Marco, yet still close to many of the cities attractions, its location is Don Orione's best feature. The rooms are fairly spartan but spotlessly clean (no TVs or... More

It's a religious guest house. No television. No safe. No fridge. There wasn't even a soap tray in the shower. The only decoration was a crucifix. There is no pool, no bar, no restaurant etc. It took us 2 hours to find the place, as it's nothing like as grand as suggested by their web site. I paid 140 euros... More

In many ways this hotel seems to be a hostel for the non-backpackers. Furnishings were sparse but adequate. Clean, spacious and the bathroom in the room was large with a tiny shower. Noise level was good and the staff was very accomodating. Breakfast was provided and was good. Best part of the hotel was its location near the Zattare water... More

Our room overlooked the courtyard, so it was away from any street noise. We enjoyed the church bells in the morning at a not unreasonable hour. The breakfast pastries were delicious, and... More

My husband and kids traveled to Venice. This location provided large, clean, cool, and comfortable rooms. The breakfast was good and we enjoyed the location. The staff was very accommodating and kind. For a Venice hotel it seemed very roomy. Plus it is incredibly quiet and peaceful!

We only stayed here one night during a 3 week trip to Europe. We found this to meet all of our needs well: clean, good location, helpful staff, working AC and wi-fi and a decent breakfast. Its located on a quiet street but very close to public transport boats on both ends of the street. I would stay here again... More

We stayed here for four nights and were very pleased. If you are coming from Marco Polo Airport and take the Alilaguna, get off at Zattere and walk directly up alongside the Gesuiti Church for about 400 feet and you will be at the door. If coming on the Vapporetto down the Grand Canal from the railroad station, get off... More
