Embodying the intimate and personal atmosphere that defines the finest Venetian hospitality, Residenza Scala del Bovolo likely occupies a carefully restored historic building, maintaining the architectural integrity and character that Venice is renowned for. While the hotel maintains a three-star classification, its exceptional 9.0 rating suggests that guests consistently find their experiences exceed expectations, with service, cleanliness, and attention to detail commonly praised attributes. The residenza format typically offers a more personalized, authentic stay than larger chain hotels, allowing visitors to feel like temporary residents rather than tourists.

Reviews

  • Clara from Spain – 24 September 2024 (9/10)

    El apartamento era nuevo, cómodo, todo estaba muy limpio y la ubicación maravillosa.

    What could be improved: Todo fue maravilloso, nada malo.

  • Jonathan from France – 19 September 2024 (8/10)

    La disponibilité de l'hôte, très gentil, avant et pendant notre séjour. A répondu rapidement à nos différentes demandes.
    Emplacement idéal, au cœur de Venise, avec accès au lieu essentiel et important de la ville.
    Très peu de passage la nuit dans la rue (impasse), ce qui fait que c'est relativement calme.
    Le logement est neuf, propre, grand, tout le confort y est, avec de délicates attentions de l'hôte.
    Un bon rapport qualité/prix

    What could be improved: On entend parfois les bruits de pas du locataire du dessus. Mais ce n'est pas rédhibitoire pour le logement.
