Jul 15, 2008

We stayed in this hotel from July 11-July 14th. The location is amazing. Just two minutes from Piazza San Marco and smack bang in the middle of the San Marco district but you would never know it. It was so peaceful, once you closed the door we heard absolutely nothing apart from the occasional early morning "traffic" on the canal... more

I stayed at this hotel in August 2007. This hotel is a beautiful quiet gem right around the corner from St Marks Square. Upon arrival in our room we found a welcoming letter greeting my travel buddy and I as Mr & Mrs. That was amusing considering we are both female, and no, we're not those kind of friends :)... more

We stayed in Room 51 at the Dona Palace for two nights on our honeymoon. The room is at the top and can be reached by private lift from the 4th floor (or stairs). It has a private rooftop terrace with a full size jacuzzi tub. The room itself was extremely unique and large, with a modern bathroom. The decor... more

The Executive Suite is really unique & luxury thanks to the External private Jacuzzi for 2 people and the view on Saint mark's Square. It makes the stay really unforgettable. Our staff is completely at guests' disposal for any kind of service. Our Buffet Breakfast is rich in hot & cold food even with home made cakes. Thank you for...

Stayed here in May for 6 days. Excellent location, just off St. Mark yet within short walking distance from the "non touristic" areas of Venice. Room and bathroon were big for average Venetian rooms. Breakfast OK, it's a continental breakfast extended with scrambled eggs. I do agree with other comments advising some variety, every day was exacly the same. Staff... more

Stayed at the end of February 2008. Location was fantastic, only about 3min walk from St.Mark's Square. Hotel staff very friendly and efficient. Room large as was bathroom and very clean. Stayed on bed and breakfast with a typical buffet style breakfast which was fine. Brandy and coffee in the bar before bedtime was a treat in lovely surroundings. We... more

My husband and I stayed at the Dona Palace for three nights in late April/early May. We had just come from Amsterdam and Prague, where we stayed at two lovely hotels. Dona Palace was, to say the least,tremendously disappointing for the ranking it has been given and for the money that we paid for a junior suite. While the room... more

Good points: This hotel is in a great location, the staff were very friendly and helpful. The whole hotel is very well kept, very clean. Our room was on the 5th floor, so very quiet and quite spacious. Top tip: make sure you know where it is, stand in front of the Basilica in St Marks square, go down the... more

The air conditioning ca be turned on only by May 15th by law but the heating/conditioning system can be individually controlled. A phone call at the reception would have solved surely the misunderstanding. The Bar service is daily available from 4.00 pm till midnight with staff always at disposal. Water taxi prices are established by the local taxi company and...

Stayed off-season at a discounted rate. Had no problems with the hotel at all. Room was perfect and surprisingly big for cramped Venice. WiFi internet was free (you have to get a password at the front desk), and the breakfast buffet excellent. My only interaction with the staff was at check-in/out, and they were very friendly and efficient. Location was... more

Venice is a unique city in all its aspects. Even in streets...so a map is a good way to have the idea on the Hotel location. We always suggest when you are in the centre to call the Reception. Our staff will be pleased to give you more detail directions and guide you through the alleys. Part of the same...

My husband and I, together with a friend, have just returned from the Dona' Palace and had a memorable 3 night stay there during Carnival. I had done a lot of searching, but previous comments and a look at their website helped me decide in favour of this beautiful hotel. The location must be one of the best in all... more

We stayed at the hotel Dona Palace for 3 nights. It was wonderful. Easy access to all of Venice, very helpful staff, and a nice breakfast buffet. The rooms were great, with nice beds and a TV. Our room did not have a view though. However, with it's great location in Venice, we were able to have plenty of fun... more
