- Breakfast room overlooking the Grand Canal
- Located just a few minutes walk from the Rialto Bridge
Step back in time with this delightful 14th century palazzo, once home to the Venetian Realista painter Giacomo Favretto, and now a popular choice with Citalia guests. Historically important, Hotel San Cassiano Ca’ Favretto was also the residence of noble families. Today it is a Residenza d'Epoca, or listed building. The San Cassiano's public rooms are beautifully decorated to embody a traditional Venetian style and the pretty breakfast room overlooks the Grand Canal.
In addition to the few minutes' walk to the Rialto Bridge, an unusual yet interesting sight nearer to the hotel is La Peschiera, the site of Venice’s six centuries old busy fish market. Hidden away in a quiet street, this unique four star hotel lies on the edge of the Grand Canal, sitting virtually opposite Palazzo Sagredo’s waterfront façade with its exemplary Veneto-Byzantine and Gothic arches.
The hotel has 36 rooms (official rating 4 star). Child prices apply to ages 2-11 years. Minimum stay 2 nights arriving on a Friday and Saturday.

This 14th century building has an eclectic mix of glass ornaments a former residence that is now being used as a hotel.
I cannot state how friendly and helpful the staff were, they were full of smiles, even under their masks.
They suggested restaurants and sights to see as we stayed there for 2 weeks for our 24th wedding anniversary, so all the suggestions were very welcoming.
Overall the people of Venice are some of the friendliness we have ever met and we can only state that we would have no hesitation in recommending this hotel for anyone visiting Venice, it's location to the Rialto Bridge and Saint Marks Square was very convenient too.
Venice itself felt very safe and there are a huge array of restaurants that wont break the bank.

This review is a little late in coming, due to, believe it or not, my forgetting the name of the hotel !. I found the lovely little map that the Hotel gave me and felt compelled to review.
I booked this hotel for a surprise weekend away for my sister and I as she loves Venice. The hotel was initially a little difficult to find, but a local restaurant gave us perfect directions and we found it. Out front there was a little court yard that had a lovely table and chair and when we went into the reception, we were blown away by the decor and the friendly service of reception. Our room was really beautiful and we asked if they could separate the bed which they did to give us two singles. The bathroom spotlessly clean and well stocked with fluffy soft towels.
The hotel does not offer dinner and we went back to the restaurant that directed us to eat, sorry but cannot recall the name of that either but beautiful. It was right and first left out of the hotel.
The one person I would like to single out, although all the staff were perfect is Earnesto, who was the bar man and general porter. The bar is small but very well stocked and has a really good atmosphere. He made it and we met other people in the bar and had two really pleasant evenings.
The restaurant faces on to The Grand Canal and is a beautifully decorated light room. There is a little balcony over looking the canal, which wasn't open as we traveled in December. You could how ever go and look out but just no tables. The breakfast had a really fabulous choice and was a buffet we really enjoyed it.
The hotel is near the Rialto but far enough away from St. Marks Square that the prices in the surrounding shops, bars and restaurants are far more reasonable. I absolutely loved this hotel and would return in a heartbeat. Well done all of you and sorry it has taken me to long to write this review.

We booked this hotel for a last minute weekend in Venice and it was such a good choice!
The location was great, near Rialto.
The neighbourhood itself is quite and cute with nice restaurants around.
There are accepting animals, great for our little dog.
Our room was big, confortable and super clean.
In our price was included the breakfast. A large choice of food and a nice room with a terrace to eat in the morning.
On the ground floor the little terrace offer a magical view on the canal where you can enjoy a drink or just seat to admire. Thanks to all the staff who were super nice, especially Sean!
We highly recommend this hotel!

It is difficult for anyone to go anywhere, at the moment, but this is the place I most want to come back to. I have been to Venice many times and this is the best place to stay. The staff are very friendly and helpful, and the hotel is luxurious, comfortable and beautiful. It is the soul of Venice, and I look forward to returning soon.
