Hotel Canal & Walter - Historic Gothic Palace Near Santa Lucia Station with Garden Breakfast
Located in Santa Croce's laid-back district, this 3-star Venice hotel occupies a late 15th-century Gothic palace. The property features 17 rooms across two wings, each equipped with satellite TV, minibars, safes, and independent climate control. Hotel Canal & Walter offers a continental breakfast buffet with hard-boiled eggs, cold cuts, cheeses, and pastries, served in a garden setting during summer months. A 24-hour front desk, tourist assistance, and lobby computer are available for guests. The property stands 2 minutes from Piazzale Roma's transportation hub and 5 minutes from Santa Lucia Train Station. St. Mark's Square, housing the Basilica and Doge's Palace, is accessible within 25 minutes via walking and vaporetto service.
Pros
18th-century Venetian furnishings and Murano glass mirrors enhance the classical interior
Private garden with flower beds and trees for summer breakfast service
Views of Grand Canal or Canal Dei Tolentini from many rooms
Central location near major transportation hubs and tourist attractions
Cons
No elevator in the historic building
25-minute journey required to reach St. Mark's Square area
“In my opinion, this property, housed in a historic Venetian building directly on the Grand Canal, wins on location, just a short walk from the train station. It appears to offer a continental breakfast in a private garden, and I see that it's near major attractions like St. Mark's Square, but some rooms seem to need refurbishment.”
