Frommer's "Just off Piazza San Marco on the street leading down to Harry's Bar, this luxury hotel may be Venice's oldest inn, converted into a hotel from a convent in the 1200s." Full review
Concierge "The "location could not have been better—literally steps off the Piazza San Marco" at this hotel."
Insight Guides "Countless refurbishments mean that it does not look its age, and as part of the Baglioni group it now has all modern extras to go with its traditional luxuries."
Travel + Leisure "A 900- year-old palazzo—the oldest in Venice—located steps from the Piazza San Marco." Full review
DK Eyewitness "A recent addition to the Baglioni Hotels group, this sophisticated and surprisingly spacious hotel once hosted knights en route to the Holy Land."
Time Out "In a 15th-century palazzo, this hotel has little remaining period decor, with the exception of the original frescoes and stucco decorations in the conference room." Full review
Star Service "Amid Venice's most fashionable shops and prominent art galleries, 100 meters from St. Mark's Square and next door to the Hotel Monaco, this is Venice's oldest hotel, dating from the 11th century." Full review
Jetsetter "Hand-painted frescoes, Murano glass chandeliers and objets d'art combine at this 12th-century Venetian palazzo." Full review

Frommer's "There are few other places in Venice -- the only one that comes to mind is the Cipriani next door -- where you can relax as completely as you can here and yet quickly be in the midst of it all." Full review
Concierge "Spacious and tranquil... best features are the ground-floor spa, with its extensive range of Daniela Steiner beauty treatments, and the pretty garden with pool."
Travel + Leisure "Quiet Giudecca—the only “downtown” Venetian island not connected to the others by bridge—has lately become the center of the exclusive Venice scene." Full review
i
Be sure to make use of the saunas, Turkish hammam, and a roster of treatments that use Daniela Steiner products.

"A marvellous choice for those who love its relaxed artsy, residential vibe but rather distant from the centre for those who resent the boat trip to where it’s all happening." Full review
