We have booked and paid a non-refundable double room at Domus Cavanis via AGODA. But since it was a high season (between Christmas and New Year time), the Domus Cavanis Hotel* must have been overbooked, so we got a room in its sister hotel, at Hotel Belle Arti*** without any extra payment or charge. (Please note when you book a... More

Domus Cavanis it's a normal place, nothing special but it's OK. It has everything you need: perfect location, cleanliness, good heating, hot water, nice breakfast, silence (if you don't have too noisy neighbours). But nothing more, for example you have to make the check-in and breakfast in an other hotel, near the place, in Domus Cavanis you can't find any... More

This is without doubt the worst hotel I have ever encountered. It quickly becomes evident in Venice that securing return customers is low on the list of priorities. The 5 or 6 receptionists encountered at this hotel were nothing short of rude. They did their very best not to speak to me at all, and when pressed for information would... More

If you want to spend about $200 American dollars (which is cheap in Venice.. so I now know) and don't mind a teeny-tiny bathroom/shower... the flattest pillows I have ever seen and no air conditioning, the location is terrific. I will admit that the only reason I booked here is because all the other reasonably priced (less than $300) per... More

I would highly, highly recommend Domus Cavanis for anyone looking for budget yet comfortable accommodations in Venice. It is a 1-star 'pensione', but it's facilities and amenities might as well be 3-star. The lobby, breakfast (delicious and with unlimited espressos, yum!) and rest area are actually at another (3-star) hotel, the Belle Arti--which is 10 steps in front of Domus... More

the hotel is one of the most pathetic ones I have come across. we booked a quadruple room with clear instructions on 4 beds not bunks yet they gave us child sized bunk beds. Husband and myself travlling with our 60+ aged parents and it was a nightmare. This hotel single handedly ruined mine and my parents experience of venice.... More

there must be better hotels in venice than this one. although the location is wonderful, even at $110/night, the room itself was not very nice. I agree that the reception staff treated us like the step-children of the larger hotel, giving us the run around when we had a complaint, taking three days just to talk to someone in charge,... More

This hotel is great if you're on budget, but would like to stay in a decent place close to San Marco square. The hotel is across the street of the main Belle Art hotel, where you check-in and go for breakfast. It's cheaper than Belle Art though, we paid 90 EUR for triple room with breakfast per night. This hotel... More

Stayed at the Domus Cavanis in March, for the price i payed ( 40 euro per night) it was excellent value for Venice, and would certainly stay again. I arrived early at the Belle Arte for check in and my room was not ready, so sat in the lovely garden area of the Belle Arte, i got talking to a... More

cons: * rooms in this hotel vary dramatically in sizes. unfortunately the one that we stayed in was incredibly small: besides furniture and bathroom there is about 4 sq meters extra in total. * the thermostats in my room doesn't work, and we were frozen one night (with A/C on) and sweating the other night (with A/C off). * one...
