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."

"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
