This is not really a hotel. There was no front desk, and no elevator. It was hard to find. If I ever return to Venice, I would not stay there again.

Stefano was so helpful and responsive to my texts.
Very helpful. Cleaning lady was very friendly. Great location.
Boutique style hotel, washroom was nice and modern, room is small but view was great. If you don't mind Boutique style hotel this one is perfect.
Walking distance to everything.
AC was strong too, good for hot days in Italy.

Although was a short stay of two nights, this place was nothing short of amazing. I traveled with my 74 year old mom and 16 year old. 4-5 minute walk from the San Marco station and convenient shopping and dining a few steps away from the place. Stefano was prompt in his responses and I honestly felt like I had my own personal concierge. Even arranged a taxi pick up from the water door the day of my departure and provided clear instructions on how to get to Burano. Place was clean and quaint, just have to prepare to walk up a short few flights of stairs since no elevators, but so worth it. I give Stefano’s place and level of service my highest recommendation.

First time traveling to Venice with family (15 and 8 year old)
Room and bathroom were spacious, extremely clean and updated with 2 windows overlooking the canals.
There is no reception area so it’s basically a self check in with instructions being emailed to you prior to arrival detailing the process of locating the building, room number and all codes needed to enter the front door and to access lockbox where your room key is located.
There is NO elevator so pack light as you will be carrying your bags up the stairs to wherever your room is located.
Stefano (owner/manager) made contact as soon as room was reserved and kept in contact throughout my 2 day stay responding almost immediately to questions asked and was extremely helpful when I needed information.
Hotel was a 5 minute walk from the San Marco Vallaresso stop (fastest most direct route from water taxi to and from Venezia San Lucia train station). The guy on the water taxi had us get off at one of the earlier stops, even though I showed him the information provided by Stefano, and that lead to a 20 minute walk navigating the different streets, alleyways and bridges of Venice with luggage.
Location is excellent…lots of restaurants and shops nearby and gondola rides located barely 2 minutes away.
No restaurant on property but cute cafe downstairs right around corner.
Would definitely recommend this location!!!

Stefano was so helpful from the time of check in till we left. We needed to catch the water taxi at a very odd hour early in the morning and Stefano helped sort the pickup for us within minutes and stress free. Thank you for all your help and for our wonderful stay at Palazzo Orseolo.

Great value for money: excellent location (2 min from San Marco), nice view, clean. The room is a bit small and basic, but if you don’t plan to spend much time in the hotel - as most tourists in Venice - it is definitely worth going there.

5/10 at best.
Palazzo Orseolo was at best a 5/10. We are not big fans of P/O. The gondola was about the only highlight of P/O.
Vertical access throughout Venice was a challenge. P/O has no lift.

Great location and very nice and helpful stuff. The cleaning personal are going great job to make the place more appealing.
However, the room was small, no wardrobe, closet or dresser to put your cloths in. The mattress is not good and squeaky. The pillows were hard as rock. I asked to change for the softer and it was done quickly. The bathroom is tiny and you have to really squeeze yourself into a shower. The shower head is very low. My husband is 6.4 and really didn’t fit under the shower head. The wholes in the shower ceilings is another surprise … Perhaps the owners and management can improve the quality of the rooms for the future guests.

Great location it’s an apart hotel not a hotel exactly so you won’t find a sign outside
The breakfast is included and to your room which is great maybe a little more variety would be better but the apartment was so beautiful and spacious so it’s great

This hotel is perfectly located to restaurants, shops, sight seeing and water taxis. The staff was so helpful and stayed in touch with us days before we arrived to provide directions to the hotel. It is not easy to find. This hotel was clean, quiet and perfect for our stay.
