Scene

A small hotel with terraces and breakfast room

The Hotel Rialto Venezia has a simple lobby with checkered floors, big couches, and carnival masks on display behind the front desk. The building offers multiple terraces for guests, including one next to the canal. The sunny, golden-hued breakfast room consists of wall-to-wall mirrors, with some guests complaining that it is too small and report having to wait for a table.

Location

Location next to Rialto Bridge and host of other attractions

Conveniently located in the heart of Venice on the Grand Canal, Hotel Rialto Venezia overlooks the famed Rialto Bridge. It is also near a vaporetto stop (Venice’s water bus transportation system) and only a 10-minute walk away from Piazza San Marco. Guests here can have breakfast while gazing upon the landmark bridge. An array of restaurants, bars, and shops are part of the surrounding neighborhood.

Rooms

Rooms with old-school style, some offering Grand Canal views

The 79 rooms at Hotel Rialto Venezia are old-school European, featuring patterned wallpaper, carpets, and bedspreads with a matching color scheme that can feel gaudy depending on personal tastes. One room might be outfitted in sky blue, for instance, while another has a reddish palette. Glass chandeliers, tufted headboards, and minibars are welcome touches along with exposed wood beam ceilings, while some bathrooms are in need of updating. Junior suites are offered as well. More than a third of the rooms provide a view of the canal.

Features

Beautiful sights and free outdoor breakfast, though elevator service is limited

The sweeping views of the Grand Canal and Rialto Bridge are a highlighted feature of the Hotel Rialto Venezia. There is a lovely outdoor canal-side terrace along with a restaurant and bar. The hotel provides elevator service as well, but it does not reach all floors. During the warm months, breakfast can be eaten outside after guests partake of a free buffet with coffee service. Wi-Fi is available for a fee.
