$$$$, Castello
Fodor's Review:
Managed by the Busetti family since 1969, this fine hotel is in a restored 16th-century building, right by the church of La Pietà, where Vivaldi was choirmaster and violin master. The peaceful rooms are decorated in Venetian antique style. Generous buffet breakfasts are served in a bright and airy salon, and a lounge opens onto an old courtyard, close to a private mooring for gondolas and other boats. Better rooms have private balconies.
