"Good Location"

We stayed at the Principe a couple of years ago and knew pretty much what to expect. All of the rooms are different and interesting. Some of us received larger rooms and we were not altogether (on the same floor). Perhaps, we should have requested this; their were 8 in our group. Sometimes the staff could be a bit inpatient but overall the staff at the desk appeared to do their best to accommodate our needs. The hotel is clean and quiet. We felt safe and enjoyed our stay. Would I go back--yes-- and, make the necessary request to have the very best experience. The hotel should really get access to the internet. We could see that they had the equipment but nothing was connected. Connection to the interact would have been a nice perk.

You must see the glass factories and visit the island of Burano. The food and shopping were great.

When in Venice

Hotel is close to both the train and bus station and directly situated on the Grand Canale. The breakfast room overlooks the Grand Canale and you can watch the boots going past. Outside are lots of shops and it takes about 30 minutes to walk to San Marco or just take the boot. The room was specious and clean. I would stay there again.

Take the fast direct boat DM to Murano. It leaves by the train station and takes only 15 minutes. It runs every half an hour. The boat from San Marco has lots of stops and takes about an hour.

Nice hotel

Quiet, clean, good service, good breakfast. Near train station and quieter parts of Venice. Fairly long walk to San Marco but exploring along the way is part of the experience. Would recommend the hotel.
