Historic Venetian Accommodations

Palazzo Marcello Hotel Al Sole occupies a 15th-century palace overlooking Rio del Gaffaro. Air-conditioned rooms feature free WiFi, flat-screen TVs with satellite channels, minibars, and tea/coffee makers. Some rooms offer canal views with gondolas passing throughout the day, while others face the internal courtyard with Venetian rooftops. Private bathrooms include either showers or bathtubs, hairdryers, and complimentary toiletries.

Breakfast and Bar Service

A buffet breakfast is served daily from 7:30 AM to 10:30 AM in the internal garden courtyard or breakfast room. The selection includes sweet and savory items, homemade cakes, and fresh fruit. The Bar Marcello operates from April to October (5:00 PM to midnight), serving cocktails, drinks, and bar snacks in a setting with original Venetian tapestries and historic coats of arms.

Courtyard Garden Setting

The hotel features a quiet internal garden courtyard with outdoor seating, a rare amenity for Venice properties. This space serves as the breakfast area during favorable weather and is available for guests to use throughout the day. Common areas include a reception hall with stone columns, wooden beam ceilings, and colorful floor tiles that maintain the building's original Venetian character.

Central San Polo Location

Located in Venice's Santa Croce sestiere, the hotel is 5 minutes from Piazzale Roma (bus/car terminal) and 10 minutes from Santa Lucia train station. The surrounding San Polo district contains Scuola Grande di San Rocco and Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari church. Water bus stops along Canal Grande provide access to Rialto Bridge (20 minutes) and St. Mark's Square. Campo Santa Margherita, known for pizza shops and nightlife, is within walking distance.

Concierge and Transport Services

The 24-hour reception provides tourist maps, city information, and assistance organizing transfers. Services include discounted parking at Piazzale Roma, airport shuttle arrangements (surcharge), and luggage storage. The staff can arrange boat tours to Murano, Burano, and Torcello islands (from €25 per person) and provide information about local universities (Ca' Foscari and IUAV) located nearby.

“Staying here feels like discovering a well-kept secret, a family palazzo tucked along a quiet canal, yet remarkably close to the train station. The internal garden offers a serene escape, a perfect counterpoint to the city's vibrant energy. I found the blend of historical charm and modern comforts particularly appealing, and the staff's local insights made navigating Venice all the more rewarding.”
