The 64-room Residenza Cannaregio is an upper-mid-range chain hotel set in a former monastery. Well-placed for those who like to escape the crowds, it’s in a quiet residential neighborhood about a 25-minute walk out of Venice’s tourist center. There are plenty of great restaurants, historic churches, and excellent museums within a short walk. Rooms are basic and spacious with exposed beams in the ceiling, although there are signs of wear and tear and the decor is a little bland.

The 30-room, mid-range Domina Home Giudecca is a charming, quiet hotel with a sunlit atrium that could be out of a Henry James novella.
