Palazzo Marcello Hotel Al Sole – A Favorite for Families in Venice

Each air-conditioned room is decorated in a classic Venetian style and includes a minibar and flat-screen TV. Superior rooms offer views of the Tolentini Canal and the bridge outside the hotel. Private bathrooms are soundproofed and families can request connecting rooms.

The buffet breakfast includes homemade cakes, fresh fruit, and a selection of cold cuts and cheese. In good weather, breakfast is served in the quiet internal garden courtyard. The bar offers drinks and wine, and special diet menus are available on request.

The hotel sits 450 metres from Piazzale Roma, the main bus and airport terminal, and a 10-minute walk from Venezia Santa Lucia train station. Guests can walk to the Scuola Grande di San Rocco, Chiesa dei Frari, and Campo Santa Margherita within minutes. The area is quiet yet close to restaurants and shops near the Tolentini Canal.

The 24-hour front desk provides tourist maps, local travel advice, and assistance with restaurant reservations and water taxi bookings. Luggage storage before check-in and after check-out is free of charge. The hotel offers a shuttle service, electric vehicle charging station, and accessible parking for guests arriving by car.

A quiet internal courtyard with garden furniture provides a relaxing space for outdoor dining or evening drinks. The building's 15th-century architecture and interiors reflect the history of the Marcello family, who once lived here. The courtyard is also used for the daily buffet breakfast during the warmer months.
