Staying at Al Ponte Antico was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel like royalty. Matteo and his team go above and beyond to ensure every guest feels welcomed and cared for. The location is perfect—right on the Grand Canal, with stunning views of the Rialto Bridge. The hotel’s terrace is a dream spot to enjoy breakfast or a sunset drink, offering a front-row seat to Venice’s charm. Our room was impeccably clean, beautifully decorated, and full of thoughtful details. The breakfast was one of the highlights—freshly prepared and served with a personal touch that made each morning special. If you’re looking for a truly Venetian experience with exceptional service, this is the place to stay. We’ll definitely return on our next visit! Highly recommended!

“It's a place with a soul, classy and sumptuous”
It was like in a movie, everything was perfect. The staff knows you by name (even when they change shifts), the owner takes care of you and even carries your suitcases. He also cooks the best scrambled eggs I've had for years. His wife is charming, caring and friendly. If possible, I would like to go there every year!

“Best hotel in Venice”
Owned by a couple matteo and barbara.. love their friendliness and the delicious eggs prepared by matteo and the handmade pastries by barbara... the staff knows all the guests by names... only 9 rooms available at this quaint venetian hotel. Location is perfect and 2 mins away from the Rialto bridge. Everything is within walking distance. Highly recommend this hotel. Lovely views from the terrace .

“10/10! We will return!”
Chose this hotel from the many others in Venice based on the incredible reviews and yet we were still blown away by the service. All the staff so friendly, greet guests by name, nothing is too much trouble, made reservations for us, happy to give tips and a history lesson whilst making the best spritz's in town! The terrace and view is incredible, found ourselves marvelling in it every breakfast, afternoon drink and post dinner night cap, such. an escape from the busy alley ways to watch the daily activity on the grand canal. The breakfast is lovely with homemade pastries from the hotel owner and freshly cooked eggs. Room was spacious, comfortable, dark and quiet, and the bathroom lovely with a good shower. Already planning our return trip.

“Amazing Venice Hotel and Location”
The whole experience, with Matteo and Barbara and their colleagues Alex Louise and Thomas, was exceptional. The location is perfect, the breakfast was lovely and all the staff are so attentive and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. We have found a gem in Venice and will definitely go back and recommend family and friends. The view from the terrace is the best in Venice!
