| The hotel personnel was very friendly, and seemed sincere in there wanting to create a nice stay for us. Daniele went beyond the call of duty while helping us recover our backpack which we left behind on public transport. After a couple weeks of working things out, he was able to send it to us, which had everything intact - except for the cheese, salami and tomatoes which we purchased on our last day in Venice, which was probably for the best. The hotel is in a quiet, 'typical Venice location, away from the touristy area which is basically around the corner - about a 10 minutes walk. We were very happy with our stay, and even after having stayed in a 5 star hotel during our last stay in Venice (during which we brought the kids); we would chose Ca' Dogaressa as our preferred Venice hotel. |

| The rooms are very clean and in a very good state of decoration. A few rooms look directly onto the canal but ours didn't. It is located in a very quiet area close to the historically important Jewish ghetto but is only a few minutes walk to the Grand Canal and fairly close to both the train and bus stations. The staff were very friendly. But the real selling point for us was sitting right by the canal's edge having breakfast whilst watching people (few of them tourists) and boats going past - it was lovely! |

| The hotel is an easy walk from the station, and easy to find if you have a map. It's among a group of rather sad looking buildings on the edge of the Jewish quarter, and you have to go into the side street to find the hotel. Initial impressions aren't great - the carpet on the stairs leading up to the room was faded and dirty, for example, but the room, while tiny, was elegantly appointed and the bathroom spacious and spotless. Although it's a bit of a hike to the center of town, the vaporettos stop just outside, and being a bit away from the crowd is a pleasant part of the experience. |

| Great location in the quieter Northern district of Venice. We enjoyed breakfast by the canal. |

| The Hotel and it's staff were 1st Class, the rooms are spotless and the breakfast by the canal side is the way to start any morning. Lovely Sun Terrace on the roof to watch the Sun set. Thanks again we will return |

| The room downstairs is beautiful, but the aircon unit in the building hums, and if you are a light sleeper like me it will concern you. We got the owner out and he could do nothing about it, which is a shame, as it would otherwise have got a higher score. |

| Ca'Dogaressa is a wonderful hotel--lovely room, good breakfast, charming staff! We were upgraded to one of the two suites overlooking the canal, which we loved, but also took a peek in the regular double rooms. All are spacious for Venice with lovely furnishings and great bathrooms. The location is perfect--not too far from the train/Pza. Roma but a little off Strada Nuova so quieter. The staff is very helpful with good English language skills. On our second morning tables were set up alongside the canal for breakfast. We could have spent all day there watching the boats and soaking up the sun. There are only seven rooms so reserve early. We will be back! |

| This is a really lovely little hotel with very friendly and helpful staff. Very convenient for the station and just far enough away from the main tourist attractions to be bearable. |

| A wonderful spot for a break in a wonderful place....just off the main thoroughfare through the centre of the island and within a very short walk of a couple of Vaporette stops. Delightful owners and staff |

| It was a nice and very well kept hotel - close to the train station, somewhat far from the Piazza San Marco though. The owners/managers were friendly. The rooms were very well decorated as well as very clean. We got the only room on the ground floor - right next to the reception. There was a little bit of early morning hustle/noise - but we were able to sleep through it. They served very good breakfast with the option of having it in the room or the dining hall or outside - by the canal - which was awesome! |

| Our first stay at a B&B. It was a wonderful experience. Staff was riendly and helpful. The owner gave his personal attention, and this was appreciated and especially welcoming. Location was great. In a quiet part of town, near a small canal. It was nice to come back to a peaceful place for the night after a busy day of sightseeing and being around other tourists. Our room was downstairs and a little small with no view. We didn't mind this because we came back exhausted to our room each night. A little noisy because it was next to the front desk and breakfast room. Easy walk to restaurants, shopping, sites and to the water taxi. Close to train station. Our stay in Venice could not have been better and we particularly enjoyed the Ca'Dogaressa. Recommend it highly to others. |

| This hotel is near the train station and right by a water bus stop. The staff was unbelievably helpful and the service was unreal. I would suggest this hotel to anyone planning a trip to Venice!!! |

| The friendly owners and the cosiness of the place more than make up for the small rooms. Easy access to the vaporetto, away from the hustle and bustle of more touristy areas. The only issue was thin walls -- not good when a man next door wailed all night...likely drunk. :) |

| I could not have been more pleased with the accomadations. The rooms were nicely appointed and spacious. Poalo, was a very gracious host and seem to put his heart into his hotel. It made my stay in Venice just perfect! Grazie!! |

| Ca´Dogaressa hace honor a su puntuación media en esta web. Es un pequeño pero cómodo y coqueto hotel al pie del Cannaregio, muy fácil de localizar tanto si se llega a Venecia por estación de tren o autobús como desde el transporte Alilaguna del aeropuerto. Habitación no muy grande pero muy limpia y cómoda. El desayuno no es muy variado, pero sí abundante. Y el personal es muy agradable y profesional; Paolo, el simpático dueño del establecimiento, proporciona una cálida bienvenida (y además se defiende en español). La localización no es muy céntrica, pero es un barrio muy tranquilo con paradas de vaporetto al pie del hotel(en ambos sentidos) y muy cercano de todo lo visitable en el antiguo Gueto Hebreo. Sin duda, una de las mejores opciones hoteleras de Venecia por relación precio/calidad. |
