The Hotel Bernardi Semenzato is a wonderful place to stay in Venice, offering a peaceful escape with spacious accommodations. The friendly staff made us feel very welcome, and the location is simply fabulous. However, the noise from neighboring rooms can be quite bothersome, especially at night, and the beds could be more comfortable for a better sleep experience.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel. It's located right in the heart of Venice, making it super convenient to explore. The staff was really accommodating and friendly, which made us feel welcomed. However, the room was a bit small for our liking, and it could be a little noisy at times. Overall, we got great value for our money, especially with the generous breakfast spread.

Our stay in Venice was truly magical, and this hotel added to our experience with its fantastic central location and friendly atmosphere. While the stairs were a bit of a challenge for us, we appreciated the chance to explore the area on foot. The value for money here is exceptional, but those with heavy luggage should plan accordingly. Overall, we left with wonderful memories and a desire to return.

I had a great time at this hotel! The location was quiet and not too hard to find, and I loved the cleanliness of the space. The breakfast was just right and the staff made me feel welcome. While the room size was decent for the price, the mattress could use some improvement. Overall, I'd definitely choose this place again on my next trip to Venice!

This hotel offers a central location and good continental coffee in the morning, but the experience was marred by uncomfortable beds and thin walls that let in noise from neighboring rooms. The breakfast options were limited, but the area had plenty of great cafes to choose from. Overall, I wouldn't recommend staying here if you're looking for a peaceful rest.

I had a fantastic experience at the hotel. Although the room was a bit small, it was clean and comfortable, perfect for a good night's sleep. The friendly staff, especially Santina, made the stay even better. I would have liked a larger shower, but it didn't deter my overall enjoyment of my stay. I'm definitely planning to return!

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel in Venice! The location was very convenient, just a short walk to many attractions and a lovely little restaurant serving delicious pasta right nearby. The staff was exceptionally kind and welcoming. While the rooms had a charming, vintage feel, they did show a bit of wear. Overall, it felt like great value for money, with a personal touch that made my stay memorable.
