Hotel San Gallo

Great Location - Small Cozy Rooms San Gallo Hotel is a small family-run hotel very close to St.Marks Square. Location - If arriving by train, take water taxi No.2 to St.Marks and from there, it’s about a 5-minute walk with only one small bridge to cross. The other option is to get off at Rialto but there are quite a few bridges on that route, so avoidable if you have luggage. The location is perfect for taking in the sights as everything is a short walk away. Lots of nice restaurants and bars in the area (and not just the tourist traps on the main square). Checking in - I booked a room in the annexe which was just around the corner from the main entrance. The hotel lobby is on the first floor without a lift, so if you have luggage and are booked in the annexe, leave your luggage on the ground floor and head up to the lobby. Check-in was a breeze. I was then escorted to the annexe section which is a separate entrance. These rooms are also on the first floor and there’s no elevator but that isn’t a huge issue. Room - The room was really small but cosy - perfect for one person, might be a bit of a struggle for two. There was a TV, minibar, closet, safe & a small desk with a kettle. The air-conditioning worked exceptionally well and I was super grateful for it as it was very hot outside. There are plug points at the desk as well as near the bed. All the rooms are non-smoking but the annexe has a little terrace where one can step out for a cigarette. The bathroom was also tiny but the water was nice and hot and the water pressure was great. WIFI connectivity was good and speeds were about 40Mbps. I would definitely pick this hotel again if travelling solo.

Just a three minutes away from away from St. Mark square! The price was also great and the host are wonderful people. You have access to breakfast and coffee every morning. It also has a beautiful rooftop terrace as well. Highly recommend!
