Le Sorelle

Hotel Description

Nestled in the enchanting district of Castello, the 3-star Le Sorelle offers an authentic Venetian experience with the comfort and charm that has earned it an exceptional 9.3 rating from satisfied guests. Located at Campiello de la Fraterna 3 in Venice’s historic Castello neighborhood, this boutique accommodation provides a perfect blend of traditional Italian hospitality and modern amenities. The hotel’s strategic position in one of Venice’s most genuine districts allows visitors to experience the city’s rich cultural tapestry while remaining conveniently connected to major attractions. Castello, the largest of Venice’s six sestieri (districts), offers a glimpse into the everyday life of Venetians, away from the more touristy areas yet within comfortable walking distance to St. Mark’s Square, the Doge’s Palace, and the iconic Venetian waterfront.

Le Sorelle, which translates to “The Sisters” in Italian, brings a familial warmth to your Venetian sojourn that larger hotels simply cannot match. The outstanding 9.3 rating speaks volumes about the exceptional guest experience this establishment consistently delivers. The hotel occupies a lovingly restored traditional Venetian building, where historical architectural elements harmonize with tasteful modern updates. From the moment you step into the welcoming lobby, you’ll notice the attention to detail that characterizes every aspect of Le Sorelle. Each room has been thoughtfully designed to provide comfort while reflecting the artistic heritage of Venice, featuring elegant furnishings and warm, inviting color palettes. Many guests particularly appreciate the authentic Venetian windows that frame picturesque views of the quiet Campiello (small square) or the charming surrounding neighborhood.

What truly sets Le Sorelle apart, as evidenced by its stellar 9.3 rating, is the personalized service that makes guests feel less like customers and more like welcomed friends. The knowledgeable staff takes pride in helping visitors navigate the labyrinthine beauty of Venice, offering insider tips on hidden gems, authentic local restaurants, and the most efficient ways to explore the city’s wonders. Mornings at Le Sorelle begin with a delightful Italian breakfast featuring fresh local pastries, robust coffee, and seasonal fruits—the perfect fuel for days spent wandering along picturesque canals and over arched bridges. After exploring the artistic treasures of the Accademia or the architectural splendors of St. Mark’s Basilica, guests return to the tranquil sanctuary of Le Sorelle, where they can unwind in comfort, perhaps sipping a glass of Veneto wine while planning the next day’s adventures. Located in the less crowded Castello area, the hotel offers a peaceful retreat after busy days of sightseeing, yet remains within easy reach of vaporetto (water bus) stops connecting you to the Grand Canal, the colorful island of Burano, and other must-see destinations in the Venetian lagoon. For travelers seeking an authentic, highly-rated Venetian experience that balances accessibility with tranquility, Le Sorelle represents one of the finest 3-star accommodations Venice has to offer.

Reviews

• Teresa from United Kingdom – 3 January 2025 (10/10)

  Everything! The whole experience of staying was exceptional.
  
  What could be improved: I cant think of any negative comments!

• Carla from Australia – 30 September 2024 (10/10)

  Spacious rooms, spotlessly clean and an exceptional host, lovely quiet spot in great location

• Maria from Australia – 5 September 2024 (10/10)

  The property was out of the way, there were many stairs but we were all fit – lol. There were canal views in each room. We would rebook this property

• Matthew from United Kingdom – 9 August 2024 (10/10)

  Great location.

• Savio from United States – 5 August 2024 (9/10)

  Good location, Good amenities. Very spacious apartment. The caretaker Rudi was also excellent and coordinated very well.
  
  What could be improved: The apartment is on the top floor so those with trouble climbing stairs etc. might want to reconsider. That was not an issue for us.

• Yu from Hong Kong – 24 July 2024 (9/10)

  We absolutely loved the location, and the view from the apartment was exceptional – overlooking the canals. It was situated in a very quiet and quaint area, but still close to main attractions, restaurants, shops. The host, Rudy, was super nice, met us at the waterbus station and even helped carry one of our luggages to the apartment. The apartment was extremely clean and tidy – it had all the amenities like glassware, cutlery, plates, etc. The air conditioning worked great, which was important as it was very hot.
  
  What could be improved: The water heater kept turning off so we had some cold showers. There is a walk up of stairs to the apartment, which we did not have a problem with, but others might.

• Joelly from United States – 16 July 2024 (10/10)

  The location is a residential area vs touristy was perfect for us. It was a 10 min walk to S Marco Square and everything else was close. Nice quiet area with amazing “locals only” restaurants and bars nearby. The close proximity to the water bus stop to take us to the airport was excellent.
  
  What could be improved: 3 flights of stairs at the end of the day was tiresome but tolerable once we entered the AC!

• Maria from Ireland – 24 April 2024 (10/10)

  The location was very good

• Andrew from United Kingdom – 15 March 2024 (9/10)

  The apartment is in a quiet neighbourhood. Seeing children going to school in the mornings was a great contrast to the thronging, touristy areas of Venice. Still, even though we had some elderly people who struggle to walk long distances in our group, we reached the Piazza San Marco in only 20 minutes.
  The apartment itself is just as in the pictures. It had everything we needed to recover from long days of sightseeing.
  Rudi was an ever-obliging guest, he met us at the pier, helped us with our luggage and explained all the necessary information to us clearly and with a friendly manner.
  We really had a lovely stay.
  
  What could be improved: The only things we didn't like are applicable to any accommodation in Venice (e.g. many flights of stairs, having to wait for refuse collectors), so it wouldn't be fair to judge the apartment negatively on their account.

• Ruth from United Kingdom – 19 February 2024 (9/10)

  Beautiful, clean and well equipped apartment in a quiet but central area of Venice. Florence, one of the hosts, was incredibly friendly, met us at the water bus stop and gave us lots of tips and explanation on the area. The rooms have amazing views and the place is really spacious – even for 6 adults!
  
  What could be improved: The location wasn’t quite where the address showed on the map – a little less central than expected, but actually very peaceful and near the water bus to the airport. Only other issue was the lack of extra pillows – nothing else to complain about and great value for money.
