There are 30 guest rooms at this three-pearl property in the heart of Venice -- everything from the Rialto Bridge to Piazza San Marco are within a five-minute walk, making it an ideal base for exploring the city on foot. Rooms are traditionally elegant, like many mid-range hotels in the center of Venice, though details like Murano glass mirrors and chandeliers appear classic rather than dated. Due to the size of the property, there are few facilities on-site, but breakfast and Wi-Fi are included in the room rate. Those wanting a similar hotel with the option of a kitchenette should check out the nearby Ca' del Campo Hotel, though rates will be higher and rooms are a bit less charming.

A former Venetian palazzo, the mid-range Locanda La Corte is a traditional decorated hotel that's centrally located in the city's Castello district. Set back from crowds, quaint footbridges separate romantic canals here, although navigating them can make for tricky arrivals -- though the hotel has its own water taxi dock. Classic furnishings are more homey than opulent, but original ceilings and floors are beautifully restored. The 18 rooms are large for Venice, and come with satellite flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, and AC, but note that there's no elevator. Guests get a discount at the restaurant, which serves fresh pastas, plus a free buffet breakfast. Meals are served in the charming outdoor courtyard, weather-permitting. Hotel Ca' Dogaressa is farther from sights, but nearer a vaporetto (water bus) stop, with no bridges to cross.

There are 20 spacious rooms in Pensione Guerrato, a family-run budget hotel. There's nothing modern or luxurious here, but the property is atmospheric and historical, dating back to 1227. Rooms are homey and charming, but only offer basic amenities -- they even lack a TV. What this hotel does provide, is free breakfast and an exceptional location, just steps from the Rialto Bridge, Grand Canal, and many other top Venetian sights. Grand Canal views come at quite a premium in Venice, so despite the lack of facilities here, rates are a good value considering the excellent location.

Hotel Anastasia is a 17-room, value property that has a central, canal-side location within a five-minute walk of St. Mark's Square/Piazza San Marco.

A quality breakfast is served in the beautiful interior garden during the warm months, and guests can also bring drinks from the bar into the garden during the evening.
