My wife and I stayed at this boutique hotel at the end of October for several nights and found it to be awesome. The entire establishment with its modern design was impressive- from the large bedroom to the upscale bathroom (latest in shower and sink hardware) to the sitting and breakfast area. It seemed much larger on the inside than the outside.

The service was impeccable and the rooms were very clean. We stayed on the second floor- nice and quiet. And, there was coffee and tea in the hallway, just a few steps from our room.

The Ca' Pisani also had a restaurant on the lower floor and they served an excellent breakfast (came with the room). It offered a wide assortment including cheeses, eggs, bacon, cereals and fresh fruits.

Located in Dorsoduro section just behind the Accademia Bridge and across from the Guggenhiem Museum, the hotel was surprising central to most areas. You have easy access to everything from the San Marco Plaza to the non-tourist areas and away from the main crowds.

Bottom line, I encourage you to stay at this hotel.

The hotel Ca' Pisani is perfect in every way. The entire hotel was spotlessly clean, the design and decor are amazing, the location is perfect, and the staff were very helpful and friendly. We stayed there for four nights in September. Our room was a good size and had everything we needed, from dressing gowns and slippers to toiletries. The bathroom was spectacular! The breakfasts were also excellent - substantial and healthy. The owner, Marianna, held a “happy hour” for the guests on the Friday we arrived, when she took time out of her busy schedule to talk to each and every guest who attended. She gave us some wonderful recommendations for restaurants which we tried and were not disappointed. Although the hotel is within easy walking distance to most of Venice’s wonderful sites and only a short walk to the water taxis, it is in a quieter and less crowded part of the city. We would certainly recommend this hotel to friends, and if we have occasion to go to Venice in the future we will definitely stay at Ca Pisani.

Super friendly staff, great location, big room and bath - especially for Venice - just loved it! I would definitely stay there again, and recommend it to anyone going to Venice. Especially loved the automated black-out shades in the room...very nice touch. Breakfast was included, and offered a nice selection.

We stayed at Ca' Pisani for 5 nights in early September. I'd stay there again and recommend it to others. We felt it was a very good value for the price. It's an historic building, updated with modern amenities anywhere you'd want them, which made for a charming, comfortable stay.

Location: Dorsoduro was a welcome reprieve from the crowds of San Marco and the Rialto. It also felt much less touristy than San Marco and was very quiet. The hotel is easily accessible from either of two Vaporetto stops, which made getting around the city very convenient. Also, the Accademia bridge is literally a one-minute walk down the street, so walking to the big sights like the Doge's Palace and Piazza San Marco is simple and fast.

Room: We upgraded to a junior suite from a deco superior. The extra space was very welcome given we stayed for quite a while and we had large suitcases for our two-week trip. NOTE: we booked the deco superior and were later offered an upgrade via email from the hotel. The upgrade offer was less expensive than if we had originally booked the junior suite. If you're travelling in the off-season, it could be worth it to book a smaller room and see if they have upgrades available. However, I'm sure this depends on vacancy and there are no guarantees.

Bed and linens were very comfortable and the room was kept impeccably clean. The bathroom was well appointed and also incredibly clean. The best part, however, was the SILENCE. Not just quiet, silent. We never once heard a noise from either other rooms/hallway or from outside the hotel. The quietest hotel room I've ever stayed in. Great for nursing jet lag. The blackout shades were also a big help.

Breakfast: Very good. There was a wide variety of fresh fruit and pastries/bread, along with cured meats, cheeses, cereal, yogurt, and scrambled eggs and bacon for us Yanks. More than adequate to get you started on a day of sightseeing. Hours were long enough to accommodate early risers and those of us who like to sleep in a bit.

Service/Amenities: The all-day coffee/tea station in the hall on each floor was really nice to have. We enjoyed having a cup of coffee while getting dressed before breakfast. There was also a big bowl of beautiful apples for the taking - made a nice, healthy snack!

The service was fantastic. Housekeeping did a wonderful job and were very pleasant, which isn't always the case in hotels! The front desk staff was very helpful in making/confirming dinner reservations, arranging transportation, etc. Venice has a reputation for having not-so-great food, but the staff pointed us in the direction of some locally partonized places that were fantastic (and you won't find in your guide book).

Overall, a very nice, very comfortable, very charming hotel. The only reason I give it four stars instead of five is that the room (furniture, floors, etc.) was a little worn. Nothing shabby, but it's almost time for an update. Still, I'd stay there again and reiterate the great value for the price.
