Lonely Planet Review

Quotes You don't have the top postcode here, but you're only a few minutes' walk from St Mark's Square. This friendly, modest hotel has a variety of rooms (with and without bathroom), so there should be something to suit.

With the abundance of pale wood furniture, this hotel definitely has an IKEA feel. The rooms are fairly basic, but clean, and the pastel walls make a change from the usual Venetian fabric offerings. As far as views go, you can see the canal from some rooms - this is infinitely better than a back view. The 23 bedrooms and breakfast room are spread over four floors. On the first floor there is a relaxing seating area with red sofas and an unusual large stone engraving on the wall by a late Venetian artist. There's a terrace overlooking the rooftops on the fourth floor, and if you climb another small flight of stairs (vertigo sufferers need not apply) you can see the top of St Mark's Basilica and the campanile (bell tower).

Author Tip

Campo Santa Maria Formosa, a large handsome square, is just on your doorstep. Visit the 16th-century Palazzo Querini-Stampalia, home to a fascinating array of contemporary design including silverware, fabrics, glassware and period furniture that belonged to the Querini family.

Curious Fact

The year before Ettore bought the hotel, his daughter Silvana was born, so he named the hotel after her. She is now an English teacher and her sister Sandra runs the Locanda.
