Pensione Accademia - Villa Maravege - A 17th-century palazzo with two garden terraces and canal views in Venice's art district
Located in the quiet Dorsoduro quarter, this three-star Venice hotel occupies a restored 17th-century palazzo near the Accademia Gallery and Peggy Guggenheim Collection. Pensione Accademia features two flourishing gardens - one facing the San Trovaso canal where guests take breakfast, and another rear garden for relaxation. Each individually decorated room comes with L'Occitane en Provence amenities, traditional terrazzo flooring, antique furnishings, air conditioning, and modern bathrooms with shower or bathtub. The property offers a continental buffet breakfast with options for guests with food intolerances, served in the garden during summer months. A private dock accommodates water taxi arrivals, while the bar serves drinks and light meals until 8:30 PM. From Pensione Accademia, guests can reach St. Mark's Square within 15 minutes on foot, and the Accademia water bus stop is a 5-minute walk away.
Pros
Two rare private gardens in central Venice, one canal-facing and one interior
Historic marble columns from St. Mark's Bell Tower adorn the breakfast room
Quiet location away from tourist crowds while maintaining proximity to major museums
Private water taxi dock for direct hotel access
Cons
At least one bridge with steps must be crossed from nearest water bus stops
Small dogs only allowed, with additional cleaning fee of 20 euros per day
“What stands out here is the serenity of a 17th-century palazzo coupled with those rare Venetian gardens. Being so close to the Accademia and Peggy Guggenheim, it's perfectly positioned for those immersed in art. I found that the historical charm and modern comforts strike a particularly graceful balance.”
