Employees were very respectful and attentive. It definitely isn’t a modern hotel but I had everything I needed and was able to rest. They do ask you to leave your room key at the front desk. I was a little uncomfortable with it. But if you think about it, other hotels have master keys for housekeepers to get in. There are no elevators but they did help us with our luggage. I would go stay there again for sure.
Very good location - you could walk to/reach St Mark's Square within minutes. It was a stay for one night. The room was clean. The staff were friendly and helpful. Air conditioning in rooms could be much better especially as we stayed at the hotel in August, or perhaps a fan could be provided. Thank you.

No elevator
There was no elevator. We had to take 62 steps to our room on the third floor. The aisle on the way to the hotel looked shady. Nevertheless, Saad was most helpful.
It seems to be one of the most cost-effective and accessible hotels around Piazza San Marco. The staff were all friendly and the breakfast buffet was good quality for the price. The bathroom was renovated and felt like a 5-star hotel, and the room was clean. The air conditioning was a little weak so it was a little stuffy, but it was enough to endure the summer nights in Venice. Highly recommended
Buen hotel, cómodo, buen desayuno, y personal amable.

Didn’t like that they kept your room key every time you left the hotel. Didn’t feel safe to leave my belongings in there without knowing if someone will enter the room.
Great stay! Very nice for the price offered and in a great location. The patio was wonderful. One issue is there was no elevator and we had to trek three flights of stairs.... but there was an AMAZING bellhop (I believe his name was Assan!) who was very helpful with our bags. The decor was dated but cute and the room could've used a dusting, but the facilities were clean and updated so its silly to complain.

Disliked: Amenities
Rooms need to be cleaned better, lots of stairs so be prepared to take your luggage up. Was weird because I have never been asked what time I am checking out at any hotels ever! Location was a plus ..4 mins from the water bus stop San Zaccaria, close, no iron in room, you have to go to lobby to iron your clothes if not there is a lady there that irons for you and you have to pay her.
This property really needs some renovation. Smells like an old damaged property. The room size and cleanliness is not great at all. Bathroom is clean and renovated. No blankets were provided. There was a blanket in the closet which is used by every guest that stays there as there is no cover on the blanket. It does not fit a hospitality industry standard. They don’t even offer a complimentary water bottle. There is no elevator and if you have luggages with you good luck. Specially if you get your room on the 3rd floor then you’re definitely gonna feel it. Very very old property and the rooms have weird smell. We found a crawling bug on my bed. I forgot to take a picture of it as I was panicking. If it was first floor it would’ve made a bit more sense but I was on the 3rd floor so really didn’t make any sense. Definitely would not recommend it. Not too friendly staff. Some were okay but the rest were not so helpful. The mirror in the room has rusts all over it. It was so old you can’t even see your face properly. I was not going write anything honestly but then the review popped up so I had to. I did read about the no elevator on one of the review but I did not think it’s gonna be this bad. Not sure how this property has such a high rating honestly. Maybe because it’s right by the tourist area where the church is. The tourist area. Very much walkable a lot of shopping center but that’s anywhere you stay in this area as I realized. Good luck!
Really nice clean old style hotel in the middle of everything in San Marco area. Would come back for short stay
ps : no elevators :-)

Really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Castello, very central, short walk to San Marco. All the staff were so lovely, always smiling when they greeted you and extremely helpful. the cleaners were all so friendly and polite.
The rooms were very clean, small but comfortable. Only thing I would have liked was a small kettle in the room, I don’t know if this was available in other rooms that weren’t just ‘bed’ option. But it would have been lovely for a cuppa in the morning. We did however have a small mini bar where would could fit a couple bits to keep them cold.
Some beautiful restaurants in the square 2 seconds from the hotel, delicious food and gracious waiters.
We loved this property! It was safe, secure and in a very walkable part of Florence. We checked in with Samuel who was very knowledgeable about the city and provided us with a map of personal recommendations on where to eat, shop, visit and enjoy the views. We everything about this place was 10/10!

Walkable to everything. Just a little bit out dated if you’re looking for a hotel that’s more glam. But we stayed comfortably.

Room too small, and so outdated, bathroom too smal
A very old hotel but that was to be expected and part of the charm of staying in Venice. The room had everything we needed and the staff were very friendly and helpful.
We were able to have one family room to suit my husband and I and 16 and 19 year old teens.
It was close to all the shops and main tourist attractions.
Although this caused no issues for us there is no lift and the shower was inside a bath which may make it difficult for elderly or disabled.
We would definitely stay again ! Thank you.
