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

Concierge "Perhaps most inviting of all, after a hard day's sightseeing, is the palazzo's gorgeous walled garden, with its centuries-old trees and shady walks."
Fodor's "At this late-16th-century palazzo, you can experience gracious hospitality, a luxurious atmosphere, and unusually spacious guest rooms." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The garden is the first thing that strikes you on arriving at this beautifully restored palazzo."
Rough Guide "This gorgeous residenza d’epoca is a meticulously restored palazzo behind the church of Santa Sofia."
Time Out "A beautiful shady walled garden is laid out in front of this privately owned 16th-century palazzo." Full review
Travel + Leisure "In a 16th-century palazzo behind the Ca' d'Oro, it's every bit as fancy as the Grand Canal hotels, but thanks to its location, on a secondary canal, costs less." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"Lovingly restored, the 13 rooms and suites have superb antique furniture, brocade-covered walls, and ornate Murano glass chandeliers." Full review
OysterUpscale
"Occupying a former 16th-century residential palace on a canal (with a private dock), this charming upscale hotel features beautiful, decadently decorated interiors with definite wow factor." Full review
Lonely PlanetTop choice
"Evenings seem enchanted in this opulent 1540 palazzo, where staff fluff pillows, ply guests with prosecco, arrange water taxis to the opera and plot irresistible marriage proposals" Full review
