Ca' Sagredo

We stayed here for my 50th birthday in December and fell in love with both the hotel and Venice. We booked through Easyjet as a package. We were so lucky with the weather – bright blue skies every day. Great service from when we arrived. We got there in the morning - much too early to check-in but they got our room ready so we only had to wait a few minutes. It was nice to unpack before we went back out. Our room was on the side of the hotel and you could see the gondola station (we took a ride on the morning of my birthday) and canal if you leant out of the window. We had a large room with separate sitting area and dressing room. It was beautifully decorated – whilst a little old fashioned, it was very much in the venetian style. Very clean and we liked the evening turn-down. Service was excellent – particularly at breakfast when the server welcomed us each morning and remembered our coffee orders. Breakfast was served in a beautiful room with painted ceilings and had a good selection of hot and cold food and lots of lovely local specialities - cakes, meats and cheese. If you want a fry-up I suggest you stay in the UK! A nice touch was the vintage prosecco that was included. The hotel even provided us with a free private taxi to the islands of Murano and Burano where you got a tour of the glass factory and the lace shop. I think they hope you might spend money there but there is no obligation to. It was a nice touch. Venice itself at this time of year was fairly quiet and local restaurants and cafes surprisingly inexpensive (if you avoid the main square). Some great negronis - they don't do English measures! We also loved seeing all the people dressed as Santa Claus on the canals. My recommendation is to book a private water taxi to get there – great experience and we really did arrive in style. Coffee in the bar at the hotel was very expensive so avoid - there are plenty of places just outside the hotel. I have seen previous reviews saying that the hotel looks a bit tired but I guess we would all look a little bit tired if we were that old! We thought it was stunning and tbh, most of Venice is pretty tatty – it is part of the charm of this surreal location. We will be back!

My wife and I recently stayed at this hotel for 4 nights and it was absolutely fantastic. Firstly, this used to be a palace and so the decor, the bedrooms and dining facilities are incredible. Has a royal feeling about the place. The location is superb. Less than a 10 min walk from the ferry stop from the airport (Fondamenta Nova) and you can also use this stop to catch the ferry to Murano and Burano, 2 gorgeous islands which are a must. The hotel is also close to all the tourist sites across the city. The breakfast was delicious and served by very friendly staff and to top it all off, you’re right on the grand canal, 5 mins walk from the Rialto Bridge. This hotel is 10 out of 10 for me and when my wife and I return, which we will, we won’t hesitate to come back to this hotel. Thank you Ca’Sagredo for an amazing 4 nights!

We have just come back from a wonderful stay in this hotel., for the carnival. The hotel is in a great location. Very friendly staff, nothing was too much trouble. Our room was pleasant, and in keeping with 4 star hotel. The room had a lovely private balcony, Slightly concerned about the duck tape in the shower, which I assume was to sop any leaking water. The breakfast was really nice, and the lovely staff, especially one in particular, remembered what we had to drink from the previous day..a very nice surprise. THE HOTEL, HAS SUCH HISTORY, SUCH ELEGANCE IN THE BALLROOM..EVERY LAMP, IS MADE FROM MIRANO GLASS, A TOUCH OF SPLENDOUR. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS HOTEL.
