Porta San Tomaso

Great area, clean hotel, very charming.

The location and breakfast were excellent. The hotel could be kept a bit more clean and tidy. We visited a few similar hotels around the Grand Canal, and all were similar in price and much more cleaner, bigger and better looking. Having no elevator was a huge issue, as we had to go up and down with our luggage. There was help with a porter taking things up, but not when coming down.

Pros: Ideal location, building is stunning in a historically luxurious way, bathroom was huge and water pressure was superb. Cons: Room did not match any photos online when booking and was slightly disappointing compared to the photos of the example rooms. Carpeted rooms. Library and terrace bar were not open as incentivized.
