Hotel Description

Welcome to the Venetian Experience, a charming three-star hotel nestled in the heart of Venice’s artistic Dorsoduro district. This well-appointed establishment has earned an impressive 8.6 rating from satisfied guests, reflecting its commitment to quality service, comfortable accommodations, and authentic Venetian hospitality. Located at Calle del sangue o del bracheta in Sestiere Dorsoduro, the hotel offers a perfect blend of accessibility and tranquility away from the busiest tourist areas while maintaining proximity to Venice’s most treasured attractions.

The Dorsoduro district is renowned for its cultural significance, housing some of Venice’s most prestigious art collections and academic institutions. From Venetian Experience, guests can easily stroll to the acclaimed Gallerie dell’Accademia, which showcases Venetian paintings from the 14th to 18th centuries, or visit the innovative Peggy Guggenheim Collection featuring modern masterpieces. The hotel’s strategic location also places guests within walking distance of the iconic Grand Canal and the charming Zattere promenade, where you can enjoy breathtaking views across to Giudecca Island while savoring a gelato or spritz at one of the waterfront cafés. The vibrant Campo Santa Margherita, known for its lively atmosphere and local restaurants, is just a short walk away, offering authentic dining experiences and a glimpse into everyday Venetian life. For those interested in exploring further afield, the vaporetto (water bus) stops are conveniently accessible, providing easy connections to St. Mark’s Square, the Rialto Bridge, and other renowned Venetian landmarks.

What sets Venetian Experience apart, as reflected in its impressive 8.6 rating, is the hotel’s thoughtful combination of traditional Venetian elements with modern comforts. The interiors pay homage to classic Venetian style with details such as Murano glass fixtures, terrazzo flooring, and rich fabrics, while ensuring all contemporary amenities are provided for a comfortable stay. Each room has been individually designed to maximize comfort while maintaining authentic character, many featuring windows that open to reveal picturesque canal or street views. The attentive staff at Venetian Experience pride themselves on their personalized service, offering insider recommendations for exploring the lesser-known treasures of Venice beyond the standard tourist itinerary. Their knowledge of local restaurants, hidden campos (squares), and artisan workshops allows guests to experience Venice as a local rather than a visitor. The hotel’s breakfast service receives particular praise from guests, featuring fresh local pastries, Italian coffee, and seasonal fruits—the perfect start to a day of Venetian exploration. Whether you’re visiting Venice for its renowned art, architectural splendors, or simply to wander its labyrinthine streets and canals, Venetian Experience provides an ideal base from which to discover the timeless magic of La Serenissima while retreating to a comfortable, welcoming haven at day’s end.

Reviews

  • Mariyan from Bulgaria – 22 July 2024 (9/10)

    The room is very nice, big, good air-conditioner, small fridge, coffee machine, big terrace and very nice bathroom, very nice big bed. Very good location, in front of a square Santa Margarita, there are a lot of pizza and cafe, restaurants and a big super market. I have been also the previous year.

    What could be improved: Nothing!

  • Erin from Australia – 10 March 2025 (9/10)

    The host Andrea is AMAZING. We were contacted the day before via whatsapp with travel options and with intricate details of how to get to the accomodation. We were provided entry codes in advance, including photos of each step of how to get there and in. She also gave us restaurant recommendations and was highly communicative and kind. We are travelling from Australia with our 5.5month old baby, so when I messaged asking for Laundromat details I was provided detailed instructions on how to get there. Finally, I annoyed her again to ask for a later check out as we are getting the train after lunch, this was not a problem either. This level of kindness is unmeasured and I cannot say enough good things about Andrea or the accomodation. Great location, plenty of shops and restaurants around but it's not noisy. There was a great selection of snacks and drinks in the room as well as complimentary items in the bathroom, awesome little touches.

    We will 100% be back here if ever we decide to come back to Venice – when the kids are older and can carry their own bags across the bridges!

    What could be improved: Nothing. Everything was great!!

  • Kendall from Canada – 4 October 2024 (9/10)

    The room is big and the bed is good. There is a good food option right outside.

    What could be improved: The only thing I didn't like was the washroom. It close to the room. But not in the room. It is private so not really that bad. The light above the door was out so it was a little hard to see. All minor issues. Every good overall

  • Julia from Poland – 26 September 2024 (9/10)

    Very clean, well equipped, great location. All in all great value for the prace

  • Emma from United Kingdom – 20 September 2024 (9/10)

    Big comfy bed, lovely bathroom, surprise communal area and balcony, great location right on the square, easy check in

    What could be improved: Nothing!

  • Ruoyu from Germany – 28 August 2024 (9/10)

    Nice, affordable and neat. The owners are hospitable and helpful. We have enjoyed our stay there.

    What could be improved: The bathroom is separate from the room. But it was OK for us.

  • Meri from Germany – 30 July 2024 (9/10)

  • Jevgenijs from Sweden – 18 July 2024 (9/10)

    What could be improved: N/A

  • Roslyn from Australia – 9 July 2024 (9/10)

    Good apartment near restaurants and access to everything on foot.

    What could be improved: We were fully warned and the property was very forthright about the bathroom being a seperate room but in retrospect this is not my ideal. I’m sure it wouldn’t be an issue for younger people.

  • Marcin from Poland – 16 May 2024 (8/10)

    The location is amazing. It’s very easy going place. The room is cute, for people with not much expectation like us it was perfect. First of all, clean, really helpful owner, the energy is really really good. The fact of having own bathroom but outside the room is also very okay. It’s right behind the rooms doors. I would recommend this place for everyone who’s focused on exploring the city cause it’s really really good pitstop in the middle of all attractions:)
