We stayed at P.A. for our wedding (but didn't use it as a reception site) and had a total of 4 rooms, incl. the big suite. What a wonderful place. Service (unusually friendly, knowledgabe and customer oriented for Venice standard), Character (very tasteful decorations, authentic renovations), Atmosphere (huge and very quiet garden, yet very central; huge rooms, great breakfast, only... more

What a wonderful experience !!!!!!!!! Darwin , Guiseppe, Rolly,and Stefano were so professional during our stay. Our room was so charming and immaculate. The gardens were beautiful, and it was so peaceful sitting with my family in the morning enjoying a delicious breakfast. My teenage son fell in love with this charming palace. So convenient to use water ferry or... more

Don't really need to say too much as all the other reviews are glowing too. Had the nicest time. A quiet gem just off the main drag so very well located but nothing but birdsong and tolling bells to disturb the peace. Sweet and pretty garden was a treat to sit and have breakfast there. And what a lovely breakfast... more

We visited to celabrate my husbands 60th birthday and everything was wonderful. the hotel staff are fabulous and do take advantage of their knowledge about restaurants-the one meal that we had without their recommendation was the worst! tea, cocktails etc in the garden all perfect. We had room 11-very pretty overlooking the canal. more

If I start with the superlatives, I am at risk of being unable to control myself. This was my third trip to Venice (takiing my sister as a special treat). I booked Palazzo Abadessa on the basis of other reviews on this sight, and I am so glad that I did. Still, I was prepared to wear the "Been There,... more

A fantastic hotel, warm welcome and nothing too much trouble. Breakfast in the garden was delicious and tranquil. Lit up with fairy lights at night. A few (quiet) minutes walk away from a busy street with lovely shops, restaurants etc. Near to water bus stops. Would highly recommend it. Canal works still going on but not really invasive. more

The hotel was wonderful. It was quiet, everything was clean, and the rooms were beautiful. It was like staying in a museum. Service is great. The owner is a wonderful woman who was there every morning at breakfast. The breakfast was also good, far better than the other places we stayed. Beware the water taxis from the train station though.... more

It was the begining of our honeymoon and what a start. We were welcomed at the reception with a smile and a proseco. The entrance was throgh a fabulous garden which is uncommon in Venice. The room was splendid, huge and full of antique furniture. Knowing that we were honeymooners we found beautiful orchids in the room. The second day... more

Everyone likes the Abadessa and with very good reason. It's a beautiful small palazzo with enormously pleasant and helpful staff, and excellent value for Venice. Our room was a very large double (no 16) overlooking the garden, which I think is much the best side of the hotel to be. We liked the location because it's not too touristy, you... more
