Antica Locanda Sturion Residenza d'Epoca

Interesting historic building, friendly staff, central location but in a quiet side street (no noise at all), delicious breakfast, comfortable bed. Lovely view of the Grand Canal from the breakfast room. The bedroom actually had a bath, rather than just a shower, and that was the main reason we chose it. We noticed no problems with the area.

The view in room one was amazing. The staff was friendly and helpful with everything from a steamer to helping with our lost luggage. It was very clean!! Loved having coffee ready by the staff in the morning! Yes, the building is historic but we had comfy beds, great air conditioning, and hot water. Nice location as well. The breakfast was simple- nothing fancy but it was nice to start out with fruit, yogurt, eggs, or a croissant before heading out for the day.

Everything! Yes, also the stairs ;) The house itself is very old and therefore there is no option to install an elevator. But after this workout of climbing the stairs you earned yourself a good pizza! ;) The room had a nice size, and everything was clean. The decoration reminded me of a Venetian Palazzo and the bed was super comfy. The breakfast was very good: at first it doesn't look that much, but they serve you to the table a bread basket with a selection of bread, and if you want an omelette or a fried egg to keep everything fresh. Toast and jams are available buffet style as well as OJ, water, coffee, fruits and yoghurt. The staff is so nice and helpful and provide you with information on the city and where to go for ice cream or to dine. The location is absolutely excellent and right next to the Rialto Bridge in the heart of the city. We would stay there again in a heartbeat! Thank you for everything!

Mattress and pillows nice firm. Breakfast is top knotch, with a view over Grand canal to match, and staff throughout very friendly, with particular mention to the filipino breakfast manager who I unfortunately forgot to ask his name. AC was perfect for the peak humidity and heat and an extra hair dryer was provided. Location was perfect and room on top floor was quite and private.

Location is fantastic!! It is really easy and quick to walk to the top Venice sights from the hotel (Rialto bridge is literally just outside it). We loved the style of the hotel too as it felt Venetian and thought had gone into it. Staff were very friendly, always with a smile on their faces :) Breakfast was lovely, continental style, not the largest selection but we were very full by it each day! The stairs didn’t bother us at all, it’s Venice so we’re already walking most the time and doing steps for the bridges, so an additional staircase really didn’t seem significant!
