We stayed at the Dona Palace for five days at the end of July 2008, and were so happy we chose this hotel. Check-in was a breeze, and the front desk clerk was extremely polite. Our room (33) was large, and air conditioned. It was a welcome relief from the mugginess outside. I was a little worried at first because... more

We were due to stay at the Dona Palace in Venice for the Ratadore festival and also to celebrate our wedding anniversary. On arrival we were upgraded to their sister hotel - Ponte dei Sospiri just next door. This was a suites hotel - very small and with only about 6 rooms which was amazing. But what we saw of... more

Stayed here last year post cruise for 3 nights. The hotel was a hidden gem tucked away behind st marks square. The room was enormous with 3 sets of floor to ceiling windows overlooking the canal we could see the bridge of sighs from our room.The staff were very helpful and the breakfast was nice Would stay here again for... more

We stayed in this hotel from July 11-July 14th. The location is amazing. Just two minutes from Piazza San Marco and smack bang in the middle of the San Marco district but you would never know it. It was so peaceful, once you closed the door we heard absolutely nothing apart from the occasional early morning "traffic" on the canal... more

I stayed at this hotel in August 2007. This hotel is a beautiful quiet gem right around the corner from St Marks Square. Upon arrival in our room we found a welcoming letter greeting my travel buddy and I as Mr & Mrs. That was amusing considering we are both female, and no, we're not those kind of friends :)... more

We stayed in Room 51 at the Dona Palace for two nights on our honeymoon. The room is at the top and can be reached by private lift from the 4th floor (or stairs). It has a private rooftop terrace with a full size jacuzzi tub. The room itself was extremely unique and large, with a modern bathroom. The decor... more

Stayed here in May for 6 days. Excellent location, just off St. Mark yet within short walking distance from the "non touristic" areas of Venice. Room and bathroon were big for average Venetian rooms. Breakfast OK, it's a continental breakfast extended with scrambled eggs. I do agree with other comments advising some variety, every day was exacly the same. Staff... more

Stayed at the end of February 2008. Location was fantastic, only about 3min walk from St.Mark's Square. Hotel staff very friendly and efficient. Room large as was bathroom and very clean. Stayed on bed and breakfast with a typical buffet style breakfast which was fine. Brandy and coffee in the bar before bedtime was a treat in lovely surroundings. We... more

My husband and I stayed at the Dona Palace for three nights in late April/early May. We had just come from Amsterdam and Prague, where we stayed at two lovely hotels. Dona Palace was, to say the least,tremendously disappointing for the ranking it has been given and for the money that we paid for a junior suite. While the room... more
