Our room was very cozy. There was 2 double beds for us, my hudsband, me and two sons. Staffs were kind and tryed to give us lots of information. The location is fantastic. We can see grand canal and Rialto bridge through two big window in our room. I want to strongly recommand this hotel to people who go to... more

My Daughter & I stayed here in December, we had a very good welcome, & shown to our room on the 2nd floor. It was a very pretty room albeit small. The location is perfect right by the Rialto Bridge, with all its streetside bars & restaurants. From the outside it looks dreadful & when we got off the water... more

This hotel is steps away from the Rialto Bridge, facing the Grand Canal. It's in the center of a strip of restaurants that have tables on the canals. It's a great location to start exploring the city. There are good places nearby to eat, buy souvenirs, get some gelato, and take a gondola ride. The staff of the hotel was... more

In February those of us who do not have a very large budget can afford to stay in wonderful locations such as the dreamy Hotel locanda Ovidius. Situated right in the historic and architectural heart of the old town, starting with the picture postcard famous Rialto Bridge a stone throw away, it boasts views over the Grand Canal from its... more

Stayed one night (for carnival) in January 2008. The location is fantastic with views over the grand canal and right by Rialto bridge and by street cafes etc. However, we had an economy room (as part of a deal with Easyjet). We were offered an upgrade for 30 euros but decided to use the money towards a meal instead. The... more

Stayed at the locanda Ovidius for three nights in November 2007. We stayed in a double room over looking the Rialto. A lovely hotel in a good location, with exceptional views and spacious rooms. Had room 102 which had an awful shower (no water pressure and temperature a little varied) my sister had room 101 which had a lovely bath... more

We stayed for five nights in room 202, which is a very good sized room overlooking the canal, with a generous bathroom. The view is undoubtely spectacular, but came at a supplementary cost of Euro 100 per night. The location is ideal - near to the Rialto bridge (less than 60 metres) very close to the waterbus stops (opposite the... more

Booked a standard double room, but must have been upgraded as the room we were given far exceeded our expectations. Large room with lovely spacious bathroom. Overlooked the Grand Canal, for far less money than you would normally pay for a canal view in Venice. Everything was very clean. Breakfast was very good, continental style. Hotel staff very friendly. Good... more

Stayed in the Hotel Ovidius for three nights at the end of September. Had read many of the reviews of the Hotel on trip advisor, and they weren't too far wrong! Booked the room through the hotel website, which worked out much cheaper. Arrived there before check in time at 2pm, but were allowed to leave bags in storage until... more
