Hotel La Calcina

Wonderful small boutique hotel. Excellent service, helpful staff and great breakfast in beautiful garden by Gian Luca who makes everything special. Location is central to everything but quiet. Highly recommend!

Amazing venue, historical with a literary tradition. The rooms have AC. We had a corner room, so we had a view on 2 canals, which was incredibly beautiful! The staff is multilingual, very competent, reliable and extremely friendly. The private garden is lovely, and the breakfast was delicious. A great find !

As a last minute find, this place is brilliant. The staff are really friendly and welcoming, it has great connections to the centre and a walkable distance from most iconic places in Venice. There is also an easy transport connection. Number 2 will take you on the scenic route if you have time or one stop across the canal to the southern part with some local restaurants. The area is less crowded but still really close and there is a stop just outside, which will take you directly to the airport. Overall we are really pleased with our choice for the two night stay, the breakfast, the rooftop terrace and for Concierge suggestions on places to visit. Grazie!

This was the perfect location- on the water out of the busy tourist area but an easy walk to everything. Loved the views from the roof deck. All the staff were friendly and helpful from reserving a water taxi from the airport, making dinner reservations, answering our many questions, taking luggage to our room to storing our bags on the day we left. We want to mention Lorella at the front desk and Kowsa (not sure how to spell his name) at meals. We were very well cared for.

Lovely property on the quiet side of town. Easily accessible. Excellent service from an attentive staff. Restaurant is quite good. Only comment is get better Pillows.

Das Hotel liegt direkt an der Zattere mit perfekter Aussicht auf die Giudecca. Das Zimmer hätte etwas größer und das Bett etwas länger sein können. Aber dafür hatten wir einen fantastischen Ausblick. Das Personal war durchweg äußerst freundlich und man fühlte sich jederzeit willkommen. Bei unserer Ankunft bekamen wir einen kühlen Prosecco (Es hätte auch ein Kaffee sein können.), den wir im hübschen Garten genießen konnten. Eine knappe halbe Stunde später, es war noch nicht 11Uhr, war unser Gepäck bereits auf dem Zimmer und wir konnten uns nach der Anreise frisch machen. Das Frühstück war typisch italienisch und man konnte auch Rührei, Speck, Käse und Kochschinken bekommen. Besonders erwähnenswert ist der durchweg sehr freundliche Service gewesen! (Kellner, Rezeption und Zimmermädchen) Wir können das Hotel uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen.

Staff are outstanding- professional, helpful, attentive. Breakfast is vast and fresh including something for everyone’s tastes. Decor is well maintained and the place is maintained to royal standards. Their spritzes were the best I had around Venice. AC works very well. Would. It be a hotel for small children - not bc unfriendly, but is more upscale and quiet.

Staying at La Calcina was a delight from start to finish. We were greeted by Samuel, who made check-in very easy and welcomed us with a much appreciated Rossini. He continued to be very friendly and engaging throughout our stay.The whole reception team were a pleasure to deal with. The staff in the restaurant were also a real credit to the hotel. Vera , Mary and all the waiting staff were delightful and provided excellent service. We dined on the restaurant terrace three times and had excellent service each time, including a very busy service on the night of the Redentore fireworks. Our room was beautiful. It felt very Venetian. We had amazing views across the Giudecca and were able to watch the fascinating activity on the water. The hotel is in a brilliant location. The journey from the airport was straightforward and quick. You are very close to Zattere water bus stops, making getting around very easy.It has a stunning position on the waterfront and feels away from the usual tourist hustle. However, it is a short, direct walk to Accademia Bridge, so you are close to the centre. Overall , it was the perfect place to stay and we can't wait to come back.

Very nice Hotel especilally the panoramic room. Notice that the rooftop could be used and provide an awful view.

Great location, great breakfast, bar and restaurant. Would go back for sure. Staff is beyond friendly and helpful.

Jättemysigt hotell med mycket bra service! Fint läge vid kanalen. Inte jättelångt att gå från tågstationen. Jag bodde i ett enkelrum med externt badrum i samma korridor, var inga som helst problem då det också fanns ett handfat på rummet. Härlig frukost där man beställde det man ville äta (alltså ej buffé), fanns det mest att välja på. Första och enda hotellet jag varit på som faktiskt följde sina egna miljörekommendationer och inte bytte ut handdukarna när man lämnade dem på handdukshållaren. Skulle gärna bo där igen!

We had the best time in the hotel. Location is wonderful, quiet and close to everything. Staff was amazing and very helpful. Our room was big and very clean with beautiful view from the canal. Excellent value for your money with great breakfast.

The location of the hotel is great and staff were really friendly and helpful. The rooms are clean and well decorated but were quite small but probably typical for Venice! The restaurant served some lovely food and the breakfast buffet was well stocked. Would certainly recommend.

The location is good. The service was wonderful, kind and helpful. Where I was aware that I had selected a room with a twin bed, I had thought that the bathroom would also be in the room and not across the hallway. Guessing the hotel is refinishing things room by room. My private bathroom was literally all 3 fixtures :sink shower toilet all overlapping each other. Use your imagination. It was, however very clean but wasn’t at all comfortable. The room, was sweet and had some antique charm but, honestly, the time it took to literally tack the aged border to the wall, they could have painted the room, it would have been better. It was a surreal experience, but the staff were very nice. The breakfast was good.

Chambre jolie, bien décorée, calme et très propre.

Not the best stay. Call it bad luck. Door key broke in the lock, no second key. No hot water first day. Second day it was luke warm. We-go didn’t work. Breakfast was so so. staff were friendly but if you don’t want to worry or think about anything we would suggest looking elsewhere. We payed full price for our three days but left for the last two days and took the hit, but we’re glad we pulled the shoot.

The front desk staff was so nice and helpful. Hotel super clean, good breakfast. Great neighbourhood!

Beautiful corner room with a view.

Charming hotel in Venice overlooking the Grand Canal. The staff is fantastic, very helpful and knowledgeable of the area. The rooms are charming, comfortable, with all the modern amenities. The breakfast provided was a great way to start the day. You could walk to a couple blocks and use the bridge to get to San Marco or a couple hundred feet away catch one of the water buses.

Amazing venue, historical with a literary tradition. The rooms have AC. We had a corner room, so we had a view on 2 canals, which was incredibly beautiful! The staff is multilingual, very competent, reliable and extremely friendly. The private garden is lovely, and the breakfast was delicious. A great find !

nicht gefallen: unendlich laut, auch nachts, schlechte dämmung, auch schlechte fensterdämmung UND KEINE Klimaanlage bei diesem Preis??????????

Stunning hotel in an amazing location. We stayed in the top floor room which has views from 3 different sides and was worthy of a 5* hotel. Top quality breakfast included and every member of staff we encountered were so helpful and professional.

Genuinely friendly and competent staff!

Very well managed up-market small hotel. Pleasant tasteful decor. Quiet atmosphere. Excellent breakfast service. Exceptional staff: they clearly enjoyed taking care of the guests. I suspect that the only reason the hotel doesn’t have 5 stars is because it doesn’t have an elevator. This is not a problem as luggage is taken to and from guest rooms by helpful staff.

Staff were great, we moved rooms and nothing was too much trouble ! Convenient setting and close to most of the areas of interest !

I booked this hotel for my mom for 9th June, 2025 via Expedia. I even got a message in Expedia by the reception staff telling how to reach the destination. When my mom went to the hotel for check in, the night staff there said they don't have the reservation. My mom called me (overseas) and my brother and we tried to talk with the staff. His name is Anthony, and he clearly said that there is no reservation. I sent the email and message of confirmation to hotel's email. He then said that it is a fake Expedia. I was shocked, as I have used the same link to book hotels in Santorini and Rome and they both were confirmed. The staff then insisted us to pay for the night. I asked him to call the manager may be and ask him about this as there might be a confusion. He said his manager does not work until next day evening. He said to pay now and then talk to the manager tomorrow. I told him that we just booked for the night and my mom is leaving to Rome tomorrow. He just kept on saying that we have to pay. Later, I don't know what happen, he said he will check another computer and was talking to his manager. He then at last came to my mom and said that he finally found the booking. This was terrible. I was on the phone with this staff for hours and he at last did not even apologise. I don't know whose fault was this, hotel or Expedia but I think there is a way to handle this situation and I can clearly say that he was not handling it well professionally.

Professional and very kind staff. Location is ideal because directly on the water and not overrun by tourists. Nice property with high attention on guests.

My second stay at La Calcina was like my first some two years ago. It was a complete hotel experience with friendly, super-polite and considerate staff; tasteful interiors, comfortable beds. The location on Venice’s Zattere is unbeatable, free from crowds and offering beautiful vistas. The included breakfast was delicious and wholesome. A beautiful time at a beautiful place.

Alle waren sehr freundlich

Staying at La Calcina was a delight from start to finish. We were greeted by Samuel, who made check-in very easy and welcomed us with a much appreciated Rossini. He continued to be very friendly and engaging throughout our stay.The whole reception team were a pleasure to deal with. The staff in the restaurant were also a real credit to the hotel. Vera , Mary and all the waiting staff were delightful and provided excellent service. We dined on the restaurant terrace three times and had excellent service each time, including a very busy service on the night of the Redentore fireworks. Our room was beautiful. It felt very Venetian. We had amazing views across the Giudecca and were able to watch the fascinating activity on the water. The hotel is in a brilliant location.

We have been going to La Calcina for years and have enjoyed each stay. The property has excellent location with fantastic views of the Guidecca canal. It is located in a relatively quiet area of Venice and yet has easy access to all the main sites. The staff is very friendly and the rooms have a lot of the old world charm.

Friendly and helpful staff, walkable location and near a Vaporetto stop. Breakfast options were plentiful.

Had a wonderful experience in this hotel. Great location, close to transport and to the main attractions. Lovely spacioius rooms and fantastic breakfast. Staff were also very helpful and friendly!

We absolutely loved this little gem, just off the beaten path in Venice but still on a canal with spectacular views. A short walk brings you to the thick of things in central Venice, where hotels like this would fetch three times the price. The staff was so welcoming, we didn't want to leave!

Excellent location, old school European Hotel!

L'Hôtel est très bien situé en face de l'île de la Giudecca, le personnel est attentif aux demandes éventuelles et le petit déjeuner tout à fait satisfaisant.

Nice quiet area of the city at night but beautiful and convenient

La Calcina hotel was perfect for our needs. Quiet, boutiquey hotel away from the bustling area of San Marco, but very conveniently located! Easy walking to all the sights and restaurants. Waterbus station right there. Food was very good. We will definitely stay here again!

Este lugar tiene mucha magia. Su staff es muy amable (recepcionistas y meseros -Vera-fabulosos). Felizmente regresaría. Una observación, quizá el desayuna podría ampliar su variedad.

Very nice hotel. Room very comfortable. Bathroom was very nice, great views (we were on the top floor). Reception staff were excellent and very helpful. The restaurant staff (breakfast and dinner) however were quite unfriendly, unhelpful and disorganised which was disappointing given that all other aspects of the hotel were quite pleasant.

Great location, great breakfast, bar and restaurant. Would go back for sure. Staff is beyond friendly and helpful.

朝食が朝8時から、と遅い。滞在中の大半は朝食を取らずに出かけることに。
