My boyfriend and I are going to be in Venice for 2 nights in April and are looking for a place to stay. We looked on vrbo.com and have emailed the Ablergo Guerrato but would love anymore suggestions from the Rick Steves' bunch. Any help is greatly appreciated. : )

I have been to Venice several times. My favorite hotel (considering price and location) is www.hotelsangallo.com
Located right off of Piazza San Marco.

Guerrato is great. We stayed there in 2003 and will be going back this May. Do a keyword search for Guerrato to see more specifics about this place.

Stayed at Guerrato last April and will stay there again. Good breakfast and is very close to vaporette stop at the market -- you don't have to fight the crowds at Rialto Bridge. It's also in an area where locals tend to shop and mingle.

I have used www.venere.com when looking for hotels in Venice and elsewhere. There are many choices in various price ranges. You pay at the hotel and venere has a liberal cancellation policy.

Brooke,
We stayed at a lovely hotel called Hotel Arcadia. Breakfast was included, very clean, safe and very nice staff. It is located in the Cannereggio section of Venice.

I stayed at the Hotel Ala a few years ago and long to go back. Great location, our room overlooked a canalito, and fabulous breakfasts. It may be a bit expensive but well worth it.

My recommendation is the Al Teatro B&B. We stayed there last year and are booked there again in April. Only 3 rooms...book the Amber Room, which has a balcony. All rooms overlook a canal. Great breakfast, too. And it's in a great location, a 5-10 minute walk to St. Mark's Square. http://www/bedandbreakfastalteatro.com

Just got back from Italy and the first two nights Sat-Sun we stayed at the Hotel Bernardi. It was my first trip to Italy so after staying in 5 different towns(in one week)what was I thinking....I liked this place. Culture shock for me sharing a bathroom and leaving the key at the desk when you leave,tiny CLEAN rooms, laundry hanging out the window in the morning. What could be better. Walk to anywhere.
