Perfectly located and perfectly lovely!

I researched for a hotel near Piazza San Marco because my husband cannot walk long distances and much of what we wanted to do was located in the vicinity of the piazza. Hotel Cavalletto e Doge Orseolo Was PERFECT. You walked out the non-water side door off reception, went a few steps up a small bridge and once over the bridge were in the piazza! If you made a left out of the door you found yourself in the lovely, tiny streets of Venice and you really could not get lost because you only had to find your way back to the piazza to easily find your way to the hotel. Make sure to take an early morning walk before the influx of tourists for the day - it’s magical! The room was lovely albeit on the smaller side, very clean, and the bathroom was very nicely sized. Overall, the service was excellent. The daily included breakfast was wonderful, with a delightful array of choices. This hotel is part of a group of hotels in Venice, and one nearby hotel also has a delightful restaurant - San Marco Restaurant- where you get 10% off. We ate there and it was excellent. The location is just steps away from the piazza and easy to get to from the piazza. Considering the proximity to the piazza we found that the prices were fair and the food was fresh, delicious and well-portioned. We would stay here again and highly recommend.

The property is conveniently located close to San Marco square and restaurants! The staff were amazing and helpful but there was NO Air Conditioning as the hotel only uses AC June through September ! So in May, it was extremely hot with no AC! Also, I was bit a lot while sleeping and the rooms are ridiculously small. BEST: location WORST: small rooms and No AC

Conveniently located

Hotel is conveniently located. AC was not working, but when expressed concern, we were provided with an electric cooler that worked great. We only stayed one night, so we made it work. The shower water pressure and temperature control need improvement. Overall we would consider staying there again.

Good location.

Convenient location. Good view from room. Room a bit dated but I think the hotel was undergoing renovation. Bar seemed to be closed. would have been good to have been informed of renovation before visiting. Good choice of food at breakfast but breakfast area was a bit cramped and only one coffee machine so often a queue.

2 STAR HOTEL, NOT 4 STAR!

This hotel is far to be a 4-star hotel. I"d give them 2 stars. We stayed for 2 nights and paid a fortune for mediocre quality. The room didnt have any sockets where we could change our phones, there where only 2 usb ports behind the tv. The furniture was literally falling apart and the bathroom was not properly clean. We as the receptionist for a room swap and we were given a different room that looked much better than the previous one, but at midnight we realised that the room was getting too warm, we tried to disconnect the heater but it was blocked, the ac was not working and we were told the hotel has a central ac system, not individual to each room. I asked for a fan and had to wait more than 30min. The fan was somehow trigging the heating system and the room quickly reached 29c. I had to argue with the receptionist whom initially told me there was nothing he could do. I had to ask the hotel technician to come and have a look but he was not able not able to turn off the heating. After more arguing with the receptionist we were given a new room at around 1am... very tiring experience. No recommended.

NOT so great!

Not so good unfortunately! The room was not at all as advertised. I think they crammed three twin beds in a tiny room last minute for us. On our last night they offered to move us into the room that I had originally booked but too little time left to spend time packing up. That wasn’t the worst part, 80 +degrees out, even warmer in the room and NO air-conditioning,it was so stuffy and hot in our tiny room. They found a fan for us the second night and a portable AC that wasn’t vented so it blew out cool air on one end and super hot air out the backside, so it wasn’t helpful. They said it was a government mandate that they could not turn in AC until April 30th. However other hotels had AC, and the booking we made clearly said they have AC. It was a must have when we booked. Next, I heard super loud bang out our door and when I looked out the bellman were dropping luggage down the stairs, they rolled all the way down. Yikes, we made sure after that to handle our own bags. Okay, so that was the three bad things, but the location was great if you want to be in the middle of all the cool sites, the breakfast was also very good. The price that we paid was not even close to worth it. We would not stay here again or recommend.

Close to the Basilica and square. Staff was very nice and helpful. We were able to store our bags and walk around until it was time for our early check in. We had a little balcony that opened up to the canal which was great!! Bathroom was spacious with a deep soaking bathtub. Bed was comfortable as well! Only stayed one night but would definitely stay here again. Property was dated but that is to be expected with a historic building right on a canal.
