Floating gondolas, the chime of ancient church bells, and romantic piazzas make Venice such a treasured Italian destination. Splendid Venice, part of Preferred Hotels & Resorts and a member of the Preferred Hotel Group, was built during the 16th century. Located between St. Mark's Square and the landmark Rialto Bridge, this historic hideaway features 165 guestrooms. The hotel has been completely refurbished, maintaining a traditional Venetian presence coupled with contemporary appointments. Walls are cloaked in pearl gray with hand-painted wisteria accents. Lush velvets and cool silk textiles, which cover headboards and furnishings, add a most luxurious touch. The hotel's private docks jut out into the canals, allowing guests to disembark from gondolas and water taxis with ease.

Stayed here for family vacation. Really nice boutique hotel located very centrally on a side canal and close to the key sites to see. Staff was great hotel is charming and clean. Terrific breakfast buffet and lobby bar for evenings. Completely recommend.

The breakfast was sufficient, and the hotel was spacious and very clean. Its location is excellent, as it is very close to the city center and within walking distance of most attractions. The rooms were clean, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. After arriving in central Venice, it may be a bit challenging to reach the hotel on foot, but taking a water taxi through the canals adds a unique and enjoyable experience.

Favorite hotel. Right on a canal with gondolas going by all day. Took water taxi right to hotel dock. Perfect location. Steps from San Marco Piazza and 5 minutes to Rialto Bridge. Very best staff. Sophisticated Old World charm with modern rooms. The best!

Beautiful hotel. Room was just perfect for what we needed. Breakfast was just what we wanted to set us up for the day ahead. Was lovely to sit and watch the gondolas go past the window. Less than 5 mins from Rialto bridge one way and St Marks the other.
