You'll need to book well ahead to secure one of the seven rooms or suites in this extremely popular hotel.
Fodor's "This 16th-century palace inn has lined its Gothic windows with tiny white lights, creating an inviting glow that's emblematic of the hospitality and sumptuous surroundings that await you inside." Full review
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
"Guests get plenty of personal attention at this intimate, family-managed property, and the free breakfast includes homemade pastries, crepes, eggs, fruit, and cold cuts." Full review
Lonely PlanetTop choice
"A smiling host greets you at the padded, golden reception desk and whisks you up large, unabashedly lavish rooms with enough gilt to satisfy Louis XIV." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"A joyful pastiche of Venetian style both in its bedrooms...and in the central living room which gives on to a delightful balcony with a view over the Grand Canal and bridge." Full review
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
Condé Nast Traveler "Once you recover from the surprise that staff magically knows your first name from the moment you arrive, you’ll be bowled over by the décor." 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

Fodor's "This welcoming, family-run pensione is housed in one of oldest palaces located in one of the oldest parts of the city."
DK Eyewitness "This old-fashioned, former osteria (tavern) claims it was established in 1288. The rooms are charming and comfortable, although some share bath facilities."
OysterBudget
"Rooms are homey and charming... what this hotel does provide, is free breakfast and an exceptional location." Full review
Let's Go "Located in an 800-year-old palazzo just steps from the Rialto Bridge, Pensione Guerrato’s palatial halls lead to reasonably sized rooms that tend toward comfort rather than fussiness." Full review
EuroCheapo Editor's Pick
"Perhaps a bit of a cheapo splurge, the lovingly-run Guerrato offers 20 spotless rooms furnished with antiques and curiosities from far-flung travels." Full review
Frommer's "Rooms are simply but classically furnished, with wood floors, exposed beams, air conditioning and private bathrooms—some rooms still contain original frescos, possibly dating from the medieval inn." Full review
Lonely Planet "A prime Rialto Market location amid gourmet bacari makes Pensione Guerrato the Holy Grail for visiting foodies, and newly restored apartments are equipped with kitchens." Full review
