Palazzo Keller

Hotel Description

Welcome to the exquisite Palazzo Keller, a distinguished 4-star establishment nestled in the heart of Venice’s most prestigious district, San Marco. This elegant hotel stands at 3522 Calle del Pestrin, perfectly positioned to offer guests an authentic Venetian experience while providing easy access to the city’s most celebrated attractions. With an exceptional guest rating of 9.4, Palazzo Keller has established itself as one of Venice’s premier accommodations, consistently delighting visitors with its impeccable service, refined ambiance, and attention to detail. The hotel’s remarkable rating reflects its commitment to excellence, placing it among the most highly-regarded properties in this UNESCO World Heritage city.

Situated in the San Marco district, Palazzo Keller offers a privileged location that few Venetian hotels can match. The property lies within a short stroll of the magnificent Piazza San Marco, where the breathtaking Basilica di San Marco and the iconic Campanile tower stand as testaments to Venice’s glorious past. From the hotel, guests can easily wander to the Doge’s Palace, cross the famous Bridge of Sighs, or meander along the Grand Canal. The Calle del Pestrin address places visitors in a characteristic Venetian neighborhood, where narrow cobblestone pathways wind between historic buildings and open occasionally to reveal charming campos (squares) where locals and travelers alike gather at traditional cafés and restaurants. Despite its central location, Palazzo Keller offers a tranquil retreat from the bustling tourist areas, allowing guests to experience both the vibrant energy and the serene beauty that define Venice.

Palazzo Keller itself embodies the romantic essence of Venetian architecture and design. As suggested by its name, the hotel occupies a converted palazzo, meticulously restored to preserve its historic character while integrating modern luxuries and conveniences. Inside, guests are greeted by interiors that honor Venetian traditions—think Murano glass chandeliers, rich brocade fabrics, and carefully selected antique furnishings that complement contemporary comforts. The exceptional 9.4 rating speaks volumes about the guest experience at Palazzo Keller, where the attentive staff consistently receives praise for their knowledge of the city and willingness to arrange everything from restaurant reservations to private gondola tours. Many rooms offer enchanting views of the surrounding neighborhood or glimpses of nearby canals, while all feature thoughtful amenities designed to ensure a comfortable and memorable stay. As evening falls, the hotel takes on a magical quality as soft lighting illuminates its historic features, and guests can often enjoy authentic Venetian aperitivi in intimate settings. Whether traveling for romance, culture, or simply to experience the timeless allure of Venice, Palazzo Keller provides an ideal base from which to explore this extraordinary floating city, promising an experience that lives up to its outstanding reputation and impressive 9.4 rating.

  Palazzo Keller is close to most of the interesting things you need when visiting Venice for a few days. I highly recommend it if you want a top notch experience of a high end hotel. Brand spanking new and deluxe items like the bathroom, bedding and all that makes your experience 5 stars

• Natalya from Italy – 30 March 2025 (9/10)

  A lovely small hotel in a great location. Charming breakfasts served in a beautiful dining room. The bed was comfortable, and the staff were kind and welcoming. Everything was spotlessly clean. However, I was personally quite unlucky with my room. It had tiny windows located high up near the ceiling, tightly covered with curtains and completely inaccessible. It felt as if I were staying in a basement with no light or air

• Tracey from United Kingdom – 29 March 2025 (9/10)

  The room was very clean, good shower and comfortable bed
  Great location. 5 minute walk to Accademia Bridge. 15 mins to Rialto and 15 mins to San Marco Square.
  Located just off the main thoroughfare, but easy access to bars and restaurants.
  Hotel staff friendly, approachable and made great recommendations
  Breakfast was held in a beautiful Venician room and the staff served a good cappuccino
  
  What could be improved: We had a room next to reception. Occasional passing noise. Minimal natural light

• Rebecca from United Kingdom – 28 March 2025 (10/10)

  Fantastic hotel, perfect location, straight off of water bus at S.Angelo and 3 minute walk, right in the middle of all sight seeing spots. Staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. Very comfortable bed and superb breakfast. We loved the court yard – only recommendation would be to do more with the courtyard, outdoor heaters and a mini bar in the courtyard would elevate that space!

• Samantha from United Kingdom – 15 March 2025 (9/10)

  Great location, beautifully furnished, helpful friendly staff.
  
  What could be improved: Breakfast, tables a bit squashed together, fairly limited options on the buffet but was fine. Venice is hardly short of places / food to eat.

  What could be improved: Mirrors in the rooms not positioned to do hair and make up
