My daughter and I stayed at the San Cassiano in July. We arrived weary after having dealt with delays due to a cancelled train. We traveled to the hotel by water taxi and were greeted at the front dock by one of the hotel staff who immediately took our luggage for us and carried it up to our third floor... more

I've been hesitant to write a review of this hotel due to all of the raving ones & feel I might insult people. At any rate, here goes. I don't get the glowing reviews. I stayed here in Dec. of '05 & did not get the"big wow" factor. The room was tiny, with a twin bed pushed up against the... more

We have stayed at San Cassiano three times now - in 2004, 2006, and 2008 and we love it. Its hidden away in a little alleyway but sits right on the Grand Canal so you are close to all the sights. We have been in three different rooms and they have varied in both size and standard but that is... more

I have always been one to accept that we, in the Trip Advisor forum, are a broad church and what suits one does not suit another. However, having read a recent review of the San Cassiano from a member from NYC, I would like to give an alternative view. Unfortunately, while in control of a not insubstantial section of the... more

The hotel is right on the Grand Canal but in a very quiet area, close enough to walk to St. Mark's but away from the horde of tourists and high food prices. Arriving by water taxi from the airport was great - right to the door. The staff was very helpful. We would stay here again. more

My wife and two young daughters had an excellent stay at the San Cassiano Ca'Favretto. This property was, for us, the perfect combination of being close to where we wanted to be (10 minute walk to the Rialto Bridge) and yet was quiet and peaceful in the evenings. Lots of good restaurants, in various price ranges, in the area. Short... more

Having never spent a night in Venice before we were not too sure what to expect however we had a lovely two nights at the San Cassiano Residenza d'Epoca Ca' Favretto. The room was on the small side but very comfortable, and considering we spent all day walking around and seeing the sights it didn't bother us at all. Also... more

I enjoyed my stay at this hotel on my first trip to Venice. On the Grand Canal with impressive views. Very near a vaparetto stop with easy access to all the sights but away from the crowds at the Rialto and St Mark's Square which was a bonus as it can get to be a bit of a scrum around... more

Just out of curiosity I checked to see if this hotel was still around as I could not imagine them staying in business and there it is -- rated the highest ratings. I don't get it. I think that the issue is that the raters are largely European - UK - and they don't have US standards. If you are... more
