- 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.

I had booked a single room but upon checking in I was given a large double room which was a great surprise and I was very grateful for. The room had a full bathtub and full amenities were provided. The hotel is in a good location with a terrace overlooking the grand canal, the staff were friendly and helpful, explaining where I could find a laundrette and giving recommendations for restaurants and bars. The night doorman, who???s name I didn???t catch, was particularly friendly and helpful. The hotel is perhaps a little difficult to find but this is nothing different compared to the rest of Venice. It should be noted wheelchair users will probably find the hotel very difficult to access due to the majority of the bridges using steps for access, but again sadly this is the case in much of the city.

For 25 years now I am visiting Venice regularly (once a year), but only discovered SAN CASSIANO in 2020, but I doubt that I ever stay at any other hotel in Venice, because
- you stay in an "historical" place with antique furnished rooms and great style (take your time to admire the paintings, gobelins and architecture in the hotel).
You can enjoy a great breakfast with a few to the canale grande, Rialto is only 473 steps away.
San Cassiano has very friendly staff. Enrico and Simone at the reception were always helpful particularly to Corona restrictions. I miss them already.

Spent 4 nights at the classic Hotel San Cassiano and despite the loneliness (as due to Covid we were the only room that was busy), it was gorgeous. The staff really tried to spoil us with all sorts of amenities allowed and joined us with safety distance in conversations, discussing the situation in the city from the tourism point of view.
Breakfast was ready, umbrellas available, recommendations for delivery of meals - whatever was possible and legal. For that we want to thank them cordially.
The house itself is a jewel with view to the Grand Canal, looking at waters quiet as a private pond.

My wife and I visit each year in December to celebrate our wedding anniversary in Venice, where we married. We always stay at this wonderful hotel, not only for its fabulous facilities and superb location, but most of all for the brilliant staff who look after us. Unfortunately, due to Covid, we have had to cancel our annual trip this year, but have already booked for 2021. We are also staying in June for one night as part of an Italian road trip, but know that we won't beat this hotel on our travels, nor the majesty of Venice. We both hope that all the people at San Cassiano stay safe and well and look forward to seeing you all next year. You are a credit and inspiration for others to aspire to.
