I stayed here for 3 nights in April with my mother in a Gold Leaf Superior Room. I booked online directly with the Hotel Monaco website. It was quite expensive but our stay was outstanding. Our room itself had no view because I think I booked the most “basic” room. I think we looked out to another building/wall. But we didn’t come to Venice to lounge around the hotel room, so I think if you want to save a bit of money, and you aren’t trying to impress your roommate, just get a room without a view. Yes, it’s small (about 22 square meters), but it’s still very comfortable. The room decor is like a grand Venetian style, not modern, which I actually really enjoyed because it matches the atmosphere of the city. I loved the minty pistachio green and gold and fancy swirls. I loved the greenish Murano glass lamps in the bedroom and bathroom. The bathroom has a pocket door. There was turn down service each evening. There was a box of chocolate wafers in our room as a welcome gift. The view at breakfast is fantastic! If it’s warm enough you can eat breakfast outside. If not, you eat breakfast inside, and there are indoor tables with clear views of the canal. Breakfast foods include really lovely fresh cut fruits (not mixed together!) breads, jams, scrambled eggs, yogurts, pastries, croissants. If you want to order a sunny side up egg, that would be an additional charge. Hotel Monaco offers a complimentary speedboat shuttle to Murano island and tour of the Murano glass factory. You just have to ask the concierge. No other hotel guests happened to want to go to Murano at the hour we did, so we had a private speedboat ride to and from Murano which was amazing. Hotel Monaco’s location is perfect. It’s literally steps away from St. Mark’s Square. If you like window shopping luxury goods, or actually shopping for them, this hotel is just steps from Brunello Cucinelli, Tiffany & Co, Celine, Golden Goose, Dior, Louis Vuitton, Hermes, and Loro Piana. These aren’t places where I shop, but it was lovely to walk by their windows each morning and evening. We ate lunch at Hotel Monaco for our last meal in Venice, and it was nice, but I was not very impressed with the food. I thought the pasta was a bit bland compared to the meal I had at Osteria Enoteca San Marco. I shared a Mediterranean blue lobster with white asparagus and hazelnuts as a starter, and had linguine with lemon, Scamorza cheese, ragout of scampi and capers as my main course. So I would recommend a cappuccino and cake at the hotel restaurant in lieu of lunch or dinner. Having said that, lunch was packed, and if you would like to dine there, be sure to make a reservation. This was a luxurious hotel and I would certainly recommend it and stay here again if I could.
