"This is an excellent slice of old Venice at a fraction of the usual Venice cost. It's just a block up from the priciest real estate of the Riva degli Schiavoni, but you'd never know it." Full review
Lonely Planet
"The real luxury is the classic Venetian salone (great room) garlanded with 18th-century stucco, where breakfast is served and cushy chairs make for rainy-day cosiness." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"La Residenza started life as a 14th-century palazzo built in the Venetian Gothic style. Restored in 2001, the bedrooms are now elegant and comfortable with period furnishings."
Rough Guide
"This fourteenth-century palazzo is a low-budget gem (in Venetian terms), occupying much of one side of a quiet square just off the main waterfront."
Time Out
"Occupying the first and second floors of a grand if rather faded Gothic palazzo, La Residenza possesses a genteel old-fashioned air and offers great value for money." Full review
Fodor's
"Most rooms at this renovated Gothic-Byzantine palazzo are spacious and elegant, with imitation period furnishings and 18th-century paintings as well as modern amenities." Full review

Insight Guides
"Revamped with a contemporary twist: a glass-roofed lobby now forms part of the Ridotto, a private casino that was once the haunt of Casanova."
Lonely Planet
"Venice’s favourite ridotto (gaming hall) circa 1648 is now a solid bet for a glamorous stay along the Grand Canal." Full review
Travel + Leisure
"17th-century pedigreed palazzo at the mouth of the Grand Canal, with sweeping views of San Giorgio Island. Articles Hotel Couture from Christian Lacroix." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"Incorporating the carefully restored Ridotto theatre, this elegant hotel also has a renowned restaurant on the Grand Canal."
Rough Guide
"The ground-floor rooms on the waterfront side of this famous and gorgeous four-star hotel look over to the Salute and are kitted out in traditional Venetian style."
Condé Nast Traveler
"The Benetton family acquired this 100-room Venice hotel in the 1990s, and have since incorporated three adjacent buildings." Full review
Time Out
"The lobby and bar area is a fussy mix of classic and modern, the rooms in the main building are untouched by the design revolution, while those on the Grand Canal are ultra-traditional Venetian." Full review
Star Service
"Situated in a sensational location one narrow cobblestoned path south of Piazza San Marco, cantilevered over the Grand Canal, this is one of the larger, more popular hotels here." Full review
