Ca' Formenta Review

In a residential rather than tourist area of Venice, Ca' Formenta offers high-quality services in a thoroughly removated 15th-century building. Front rooms have a wonderful view of the lagoon. The 15-minute stroll along the waterfront between Piazzo San Marco and the hotel is through a genuinely "local" part of the city, with plenty of cafés and restaurants. One of the rear rooms has direct access to a pleasant rooftop terrace with tables.

    This hotel is in the perfect location in Castello, easy to find, far from the madness of tourists, yet just 10 minute leisurely walk to San Marco.
    The hotel was very clean, breakfast was plenty and the staff was very helpful and friendly, but not overly, just the right amount.
    My single room was small, but since I was hardly ever in the room, I had more than enough room.
    I would definitely recommend this hotel!
