Wonderful Venice Hotel

While the location is about a fifteen minute walk from San Marco Piazza, the hotel is located on the main canal in its own small neighborhood. What sets this hotel apart from the many in which we've stayed is the front desk staff. They seem to know all there is to know about Venice, and did a wonderful job of making our stay in Venice all the better. This would be just the right hotel for a first time visitor.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Ca' Formenta. The receptionist upgraded our room to one with a view for no charge, and the rooms were good sized for the price and very clean. Location was nice, about a 10 - 15 minute walk from St. Mark's square. Breakfast was good. Really couldn't say a bad thing about Hotel Ca' Formenta. Will definitely stay there again if I go back to Venice.

Delightful taste of Venice

We are a retired, Canadian couple, and have done a lot of travelling over the years. We loved everything about this hotel - the staff were wonderful and most helpful, the breakfast was great, the rooms were lovely (both decor, convenience, and cleanliness!), the location was good - we wished we could have stayed for weeks! My only suggestion would be - if arriving by vaporetti with luggage - don't get off at the Arsenal vaporetti stop, as it is rather strenuous lugging suitcases over the 2 bridges. If you go on to the next vaporetti stop, ( I think Giardini) you can stroll through the public gardens, turn left, and walk right down Garibaldi street, which is a wide, main thoroughfare. It is a little bit farther, but we found much easier with luggage. We would recomment this hotel highly!
Wonderful, small, friendly Hotel

Ca' Formenta is a great little hotel, just 10 minutes away from St Marco's Sq (approx 6 bridges!). Small and personable, with really friendly and informed staff, all of whom speak excellent English. Room was a little small, but very clean with roof terrace. Continental breakfast was good quality and plentiful.
Staff stored our bags all day from 9am until 6pm. Wished we had stayed an additional night, but would definitely go back to Ca Formenta.
