Rough Guide "This extremely plush four-star residenza, a few metres upstream of the Rialto Bridge, is one of the best small hotels in the city."
Time Out "In a 16th-century palazzo on the Grand Canal, with views over the Rialto bridge, Al Ponte Antico's exquisite little balcony overlooks the water, as do some doubles and suites." Full review
OysterUpscale

Afar Magazine "We've stayed at the Hotel Al Ponte Antico now three times, and love it for the staff and location but the highlight is the patio: sitting out and having cappuccini in the morning and wine at sunset." Full review

Frommer's "Yes it’s expensive, but this is one of the most exclusive hotels in Venice, steps from the Rialto Bridge, with a private wharf on the Grand Canal—to indulge your James Bond fantasy, look no further" Full review

DK Eyewitness "The Giorgione is extremely comfortable and well situated – only a ten-minute walk from Piazza San Marco, and five minutes from the lively Rialto market."
Rough Guide "This plush four-star, not far from the Rialto Bridge, has a more personal touch than many of the city’s upmarket hotels – it has been run by the same family for many generations."
Time Out "Just off the busy campo Santi Apostoli, the Giorgione exudes warmth. A 15th-century palazzo joins the newer extension around a flower-filled courtyard with a lily pond." Full review
Star Service "A pleasant 15-minute stroll from Piazza San Marco, this midrange family-run hotel possesses considerable Venetian charm." Full review
Frommer's "The best rooms overlook the private brick courtyard, a shaded breakfast nook with a small, decorative pool, a hushed oasis save for the splashing of the fountain." Full review
Fodor's "Comfortably appointed rooms in a quiet corner of Cannaregio charm guests with their traditional Venetian fabric and furnishings." Full review
