The hotel is in a perfect location, opposite the Santa Maria de la Salute church. From the second you arrive; (they organised a private water taxi transfer directly from the Airport to the door of the hotel, an experience not to be missed!) you are treated like royalty and nothing is too much trouble. We were immediately invited into the cosy lounge for a welcome drink of our choice, all beautifully served with a selection of snacks, whilst our luggage was whisked up to the room. The charming owner, Alessio, joined us for a most informative, yet friendly conversation. The room we had chosen (116) was the Doge’s concept suite, all very sumptuous indeed – just be aware it is VERY red in décor! The room had everything you could wish for; a separate wardrobe, dressing area on entering the suite, a very large and comfortable bed, views out of the window to the church (the bells do start quite early around 8am…) and a luxurious bathroom with a double spa bath, shower and a range of such lovely toiletries, which were replenished during our short stay of 3 nights. Our room was directly off the small, yet elegant breakfast room, where an amazing range of breakfast foods were served up until noon, a definite plus for us. The extensive menu is left on the bed during the evening, with fresh rose petals and you just fill it out for the following morning. On the 2nd morning, it was our Silver Wedding Anniversary and we not only had our wonderful breakfast with Prosecco and fresh strawberries, but a lovely cake as well! The staff are all amazing and really look after you with such care and attention you feel like long time guests after 1 night, they arrange trips, suggest excellent places to visit/eat – the list goes on!
