Ratings and reviews
5.0 / 5.0
This is a very nice hotel. Our room was clean, with good air conditioning and quiet. Italian hotel rooms are generally very small by American standards and this property is no different, however it was comfortable for two adults. The bathroom itself is fairly big but it does not have countertop to layout all your toiletries and the shower is a bit small but we managed just fine. The shower has plenty of hot water and has good water pressure.
The staff is very attentive. The location is less than 5 minutes to San Marcos square.
They have a nice outdoor patio on a small canal where you can enjoy an aperitif before or after dinner. They offer an outstanding breakfast in a beautiful dining room.
We enjoyed our stay and would recommend the Hotel Donà Palace to anyone planning a trip to Venice.

Stayed here for two nights while in Venice. Amazing staff, and very good breakfast. Everyone was so helpful and courteous. The room was clean and the bathroom and shower was also very clean and modern. I would def come back to this hotel. It's situated in the middle of everything and about a 5m walk from the st. Basilica. Busy area with a few restaurants around.

We had a hard time finding the hotel but it was beautiful and the staff was friendly and extremely helpful. Room was big and gorgeous but we could hear noise outside until 1:30 in the morning. Sounded like people moving metal furniture around and scratching the ground. Water taxi directly from the hotel to airport was amazing.

This was my second time at Dona Palace Hotel in Venice Italy and I must say each time I am amazed at how flawlessly managed it is. My room was "home away from home" in every aspect. I love their bed sheets! Grande place and very comfortable in every manner. Thank you for making my visit to Venice so enjoyable.

I enjoyed our stay, and the location was very convenient to plaza Santa Marco. The only downfall was the bathroom grout had some mold in the shower area. The staff was very nice, and the room was roomy and clean otherwise.

This is s very nice hotel, and I was quite comfortable here. The breakfast room, bar, patio, and terrace were very nice. Elia, in the bar was a great bartender. He made me something quite tasty. I would certainly stay here again if I wanted to be in the very busy area of San Marco.

Very good experience and nice roof terrace. However, the picture representing the suite we booked is confusing, as the room looked totally different with low ceilings and modern decor, which was fine, but not what you expect from the photo.

Fantastic hotel, excellent location. Gorgeous room! Overall very nice and was very clean. One of your concierges gave me an excellent recommendation for a more authentic restaurant that was more for locals. Thank you for giving me a great experience in Venice by having such lovely accommodations.

This is a great hotel with friendly staff. Location is close enough to St Marks Square without having the noise and people traffic. Breakfast and bar were great. We stayed in two different rooms. Both well appointed. Another couple in a third room traveling with us and it was beautiful. If you are using the room with roof top hot tub, be advised it is NOT heated. Would probably choose another room there next time. And we would definitely stay here next time.

THe hotel is a great location. Staff was nice. Room is nice size and looks nice. The bed however is hard not comfortable and pillows are bad. Had problem with toilet and couldn't call down to get help. Had to go downstairs to front desk and get help as toilet wouldn't stop flushing. Very low ceilings.

Adorable hotel in a great location. Friendly staff. Very close to duomo, vaporetto, dining, and shopping. Can watch gondolas from terrace also. Very nice stay.

A beautiful old hotel located directly on a canal, allowing the water taxi to drop us off on site. A wonderful breakfast room and an even nicer garden bar. Our bartender was excellent. I paid for a suite and was happy I did as the corner room on the third floor provided an outstanding view.

Customer service could be better. Instead of saying no we don’t do that. Is there anything else I can do to help.
Honestly. Customer service poor

This was a delightful stay. The hotel was very well located, (2 mins from St Marks Sq.), quiet and easy to find. Our room was huge and warm with a comfortable clean bed, the bathroom (also warm) was a great size, clean and well stocked with towels and toiletries. Breakfast was typically continental with a bit extra (Prosecco), bread, cheeses, pastries, cereals, bacon, eggs, fruits etc. They have a lift which was also very useful. The staff couldn’t have been kinder, as a birthday surprise they gifted a cake & candle at breakfast and two Bellini bottles chilling in our room on our return, I was very taken aback they had worked out it was my birthday and it made my day, ‘Thank you’ staff at Dona Palace. They were also very helpful with any questions or needs you may have. I would definitely return here again.

We stayed here for 3 nights for my partner's 60th birthday and I cannot fault this hotel in any way
First class service and immaculately clean. We had a lovely large bedroom with tasteful decor. Room service was daily.
On my partner's birthday they gave him a little cake with a candle at breakfast and left us with a bottle of bubbly and a lovely note when we got back later in the day.
Beds were comfy and it was so quiet.
The breakfast was superb with lots of choice. Staff friendly and helpful.
The hotel is in the centre of San Marco with a few minutes walk from St Mark's Square.
So much to do and see and weather was perfect.
We will definitely be back
Hotel is first class.
Thank you for a memorable stay
