NOVECENTO BOUTIQUE HOTEL VENEZIA ©2003 - All Rights Reserved
It’s hard to believe we’re approaching 20 years that we’ve had the pleasure of staying at either Novecento or Hotel Flora. Our first stay was in 2005 and we’ve been back 13 times since then. Gioele and Heiby have treated us like family ever since. We’ve made Novecento and Hotel Flora our “home” whenever we visit Venezia. The hospitality of the staff is impeccable and, with appropriate notification and patience, there’s virtually nothing they won’t do to help make your visit comfortable and enjoyable. If you’re more inclined to stay someplace small, then Novecento is your choice. If you’re inclined to a more “traditional” hotel, then the Flora is where you want to stay. The wonderful thing is that, as a guest at Novecento, you can enjoy the amenities of Hotel Flora. We always love to stop in and visit our favorite staff member, Stefano, who serves us a drink and a snack with a wonderful smile on his face. He will be sorely missed when he retires.
Several times before at Romanelli’s Hotel Flora, this time at Novecento. Calm and quiet, super and family like service, Splendid location, close to so many essentials and easy transportation back and forth to Marco Polo, high value atmosphere. We were also kindly invited to a free taxi tour to Murano during Venice Glass week and a visit to one of the major furnaces. Special thanks to wonderful Nazanin for all her warmth and helpfulness! Do we recommend? YES!
Exquisite!
Our stay at Novecento couldn’t have been more perfect! Ideal location and the place is just so cozy and romantic. Our room was wonderful; we also enjoyed the common rooms, for quiet reading in the morning or a cup of tea and cookies before calling it a night. Breakfasts in the garden were lovely, and the staff members were all so friendly and helpful. We took advantage of the complimentary tour to Murano, which was terrific. The staff also was very helpful in making reservations and booking our transportation, ensuring a completely smooth vacation experience from start to finish. Finally, a welcome package that included a voucher for a glass of Prosecco at their Hotel Flora was a very nice touch, and a nice way to see their other property nearby. We will absolutely stay at Novecento whenever we come to visit Venice, and will highly recommend to friends.
Delightful staff! Top notch hospitality. Everyone was very helpful and so refreshing to talk with. The property is beautifully charming and very comfortable. The location is spectacular – very close to everything and no loud square below your window to keep you up at night. Comfy bed. Great AC (It was boiling hot while were there) The delicious breakfast was artfully served every morning. The pitcher of cold water and fruit available through out the day were perfect for a quick pick-me-up. The location allows for easy access to many major sights and is close to the vaporetto for anything farther, like heading out to Murano or over to Lido. Grazie Mille! We highly recommend this hotel.
Many thanks for the delightful hospitality of the Novecento! This was our first visit to Venice and our stay at your superb boutique hotel was amazing! The amenities, breakfast, service and decor was wonderful! Our best wishes and continued success to Novecento!
This is by far the best hotel we have ever stayed in. The location is perfect, right in the heart of Venice but tucked away in a quiet part with a square on one side and the Grand Canal on the other side. The inside is stunning and relaxing with the decor, music, refreshments. The breakfast is amazing, just delicious and I am struggling to describe how amazing all the staff are. They check every day if you have plans, know what you are doing, need any help. They check you have had enough to eat, are comfortable etc. Its a very personal service and we were very relaxed staying there. Although no staff there after 4pm I did not have any issues with that. I had the number for them and the sister hotel with staff was a few minutes walk away. Thansk you for a wonderful stay!
We had a lovely four night stay at Novocento earlier this month (May 2023). The location was perfect: near to San Marco but on a quiet side street. The staff was very helpful, particularly Nirvana. We certainly would recommend Novocento to friends & family.
Piacevole soggiorno le persone che ci hanno accolto, reception e colazione, sono molto gentili e simpatiche. Ottima colazione, ottimo materasso e profumatissima doccia con massaggio dorsale. Grazie
P.s. ovviamente camere e sale comuni molto puacevoli e rilassanti

From the telephone conversations we had with the Hotel before we departed for Venice we knew that we would be receiving a warm welcome, and so it proved.
The best way to summarise our visit is to say that it felt like we were staying in the home of friends and not staying in an hotel.
Very comfortable and a great location.
We shall be returning!

Our stay at the Novecento was amazing! The property is beautiful and located very close to the Piazza San Marco and only a few feet from a vaporetto / water taxi stop. Staff members were fantastic, especially Nazanin and Nirvana. The breakfast was also high quality and delicious and served by very friendly staff. I would recommend this hotel to anyone. Thank you for making our stay so special!
Lovely hotel! It has a great location, the staff were all very friendly and helpful, the breakfast was superb and the rooms are beautifully decorated. Would definitely recommend and return to Novecento Hotel.
We were only in Venice one night, but were so glad we found Novecento. The staff was extremely welcoming, and our room was unique and beautiful. We also enjoyed the very lovely breakfast which was included!
It felt like we were staying in someone’s beautifully appointed home. Exceptionally friendly and helpful staff, beautiful accommodations, fantastic breakfast, and unique experience. Could not recommend more highly!
Accueil formidable et personnalisé, conseils avisés, petit-déjeuner extra servi à table, emplacement juste parfait, petit hôtel ravissant… notre séjour mère/fille hors saison restera un merveilleux souvenir. Merci à toute l’équipe du Novecento d’avoir largement participé à la magie de Venise !
Perfect place – great location, property, friendly and helpful staff, great breakfast. Would definitely stay here again!
Hidden little gem with the best breakfast I ever had in Italy. Super friendly and helpful staff. Next time again!
We just love the Novecento and Hotel Flora , it’s the very friendly staff, the good authentic taste of the hotel and also the ecological aspect of these hotel.
When we stay in Venice, we stay of course to your house:)
Novecento has become our “second home” when we travel to Italia. My wife and I stay here nearly every year when we come to visit her family in Sacile 75km North of Venezia. The hospitality exhibited by Gioele and Heiby is always boundless and the service from the staff is always impeccable. We’ll be back for sure.
A True Charm in Venice!
I visited Venice for the Biennale (Arts) and stayed at this charming boutique hotel for 7 days. They were very responsive prior to my arrival and throughout my stay (via WhatsApp). Convenient to all the activities/venues; encountered their outdoor antique market, nearly at their footsteps; do ask for their local recommendations on either food/shopping/even vineyards; last but not least, I think it’s the staff and the aesthetics that makes this boutique hotel so unforgettable. Thank you! I will be back for sure!

We stayed at this beautiful hotel for five nights and I wish we could have stayed longer. Absolutely fabulous! We enjoyed it very much. Thank you team of Novecento!

Once again, a beautiful gem hidden in a lovely part of Venice. A walk in one direction takes you to the water, where taxis can drop and collect you; a walk the other way takes you to a small square. You are two mins from restaurants and bars in either direction, as well as a short walk from Acadamia one way and St Mark’s the other. The hotel is very quiet with a pretty little garden at the back for breakfast. The owners and staff could not be nicer and do everything to make your stay special. I would highly recommend – this was our second stay at the hotel and we will be back again. Thank you for making our trip so great!
We have stayed here before , the staff were very friendly but there was building going on nearby and the room was very noisy if we go venice again we will try to find a quieter hotel
Una estancia increíble…los asistentes del hotel inmejorable y un desayuno exquisito!!!
Volveremos..
Nous avons passé 3 nuits inoubliables dans un établissement bien tenu et très calme. La situation est parfaite. La literie très confortable. Le petit déjeuner est copieux et servi dans une belle porcelaine. Un grand merci pour l’organisation de la visite d’un atelier sur l’île de Murano, c’était magique.
Nous avons apprécié ce dernier week-end de carnaval avec une belle ambiance.
Je reviendrai avec plaisir les beaux jours pour profiter du magnifique jardin.
Merci à tous
We stayed at Novecento for a night and only wish we could have stayed longer. What stuck out about the hotel was how personal it is – from the initial note we received about our upcoming stay to the attentive staff that gave excellent recommendations. The location couldn’t be better: on a quiet street a short walk from Piazza San Marco. Our room was comfortable, cozy, and tastefully decorated. Thank you for a lovely stay.
Merci pour la qualité de votre accueil. Nous avons vraiment apprécié notre séjour chez vous.
En espérant pouvoir reprogrammer un nouveau voyage à Venise, nous n’oublierons pas votre adresse.
Tous nos remerciements à l’ensemble de l’équipe pour la qualité de son service et pour vos conseils.
We had booked into the Novecento, which was unavailable early October, but the Hotel Flora was charming and the staff was very attentive. There was one waiter at breakfast, I don’t know his name but he was always cheerful and making happy conversation. The hotel is very central and just a few minutes walk from St Mark’s Square. Highly recommended!
Lovely stay! I was only in Venice for one night but the staff at Novecento made me feel very at home and gave great tips for things to do and see in the city. The room was nice and breakfast was delicious. Great value for a central but quiet location
While we were disappointed that we were unable to stay in our usual place (i.e., Novecento), Hotel Flora is still “in the family” and Gioelle and the staff are always such wonderful hosts. They took fantastic care of us during our two stays with them…2 days on the front end of our vacation and 2 days on the back end. We hope that they’ll be able to open Novecento back up when we return for our annual trip to Italy next year. COVID cancelled our trip in 2020 so it was good to get back after a 2-year absence. The “silver lining” from this COVID situation was that there were NO crowds throughout Venice (a wonderful experience!!!)
…and Stefano’s service from the bar and kitchen was impeccable!!!
I booked my stay at the Novecento for a spring weekend, to get in and enjoy Venice before vaccinated tourism would take over the city again. I had been wanting to stay here, or at Hotel Flora, for some time and was glad I was finally able to do so. Novecento is in a centrally located, but very much tucked away, quiet corner. It was a join to come back to after exploring the city. I did some teleworking during my long weekend and the upstairs salon took the edge off having to work–I did not feel like I was missing a holiday, because I was in such beautiful surroundings and felt a part of the Venice morning.
Special thanks to the very attentive–but not obtrusive or obsequious–hosts and staff.
If you are able, do take advantage of the INSIDE VENICE suggestions, which made for a unique agenda on my fourth or fifth trip to the city. There is always something new to discover and I enjoyed having more authentic recommendations.
This accommodation felt like a luxury when I booked it, over my normal hotels, but I will now need to make it a habit.
(“joy to come back to” NOT “join”)
Estremamente curato. Posizione eccellente. Colazione molto gradevole. Personale attento. Grazie per il soggiorno e speriamo presto in una prossima occasione!
In una calle centrale, ma tranquillissima brilla questo piccolo gioiello. Professionalità, cortesia, attenzione al dettaglio tipici di un grande albergo con l’attenzione al cliente e quell’atmosfera e calore tipico di “casa lontano da casa” che solo una struttura come questa riesce a trasmettere. Complimenti per quel che avete creato, si vede la passione per questa (nostra) bellissima professione, che mai come in questo caso premia più di ogni cosa. Siamo felici di aver trovato il nostro nuovo indirizzo di riferimento in questa bellissima città e non vediamo l’ora di ritornare.
Carissimo Alessandro,
grazie per aver condiviso con noi questa vostra bellissima recensione che non può che renderci orgogliosi, ancor di più se a scriverla è una persona competente e attenta come te! Siamo davvero felici che abbiate trovato a Novecento la vostra “nuova” casa a Venezia!
Vi aspettiamo!
Heiby, Gioele e tutto lo staff
In questo tempo così strano, dove per il covid siamo sempre così limitati, poter stare un weekend al Novecento è stato respirare bellezza e unicità, così vicino a casa nostra ma allo stesso tempo capace di portarci lontano, in un’atmosfera di arte e oriente.
Grazie a Gioele e lo staff, che hanno reso il nostro soggiorno delizioso, una piccola oasi di “normalità” in mezzo alle restrizioni. Non vediamo l’ora di tornare!
Carissima Virginia,
grazie per questo bellissimo commento e per aver riconosciuto ed apprezzato la nostra intenzione a rendere il vostro soggiorno un po’speciale in questi tempi particolari.
Non vediamo l’ora di ritrovarvi!
Heiby, Gioele e tutto lo staff
We had booked Novecento for a family trip with our three children (age 18, 14, 11) in August 2020. The hotel was recommended in our local travel-guide “Ein perfektes Wochenende in Venedig”. We cannot explain how Gioele has made every effort to welcome us and to give us thousands of recommendations what to do best in Venedig and where to go for lunch, dinner, a drink… The whole team gave us always the feeling to stay with dear friends. That’s absolutely much more than we have ever seen in other hotels!!! And normally we travel a lot! The hotel itself is very stylish and you immediately get a warm feeling once you come in. Also the breakfast in the very adorable and charming courtyard is fantastic and you have to “push and motivate yourself” to leave it for exploring the city.Thank you for the really fantastic support which made our Venice trip an unforgettable experience! We already recommended the hotel to our friends – and will be back as soon as we visit Venice again! Thank you so much!
Sehr schönes und ruhiges Hotel mit tollen Frühstück. Der Wirt gab uns hervorragenden Tips für unsere Abendessen,
We had a great time in our first stay in Venice especially in this beautiful Hotel Novecento. The team was great and so helpful. the ambience with its oriental touch was very aesthetic. It was our first but definitely not our last stay at the wonderful Novecento.
We loved everything about Novecento! The location was perfect and staff were amazing – so helpful and gave some great recommendations for restaurants and places to see. Rooms were lovely, so quiet and beautifully decorated. Delicious breakfast in the tranquil garden was a great way to start the day.
Cannot recommend highly enough!
What a beautiful jewel in the crown of Venice. Hidden away in the heart of Venice, the Novecento is a real delight. Even in these difficult Covid-19 times, it was a real joy to spend a few nights here and you would hardly know that we were in the middle of a worldwide pandemic. The warmth and friendliness of the Romanelli family was ever-present and their restaurant recommendations were second to none! We will definitely return – pandemic or not!! Thank you for such a lovely stay. Much love, the Dowsett family. xx
I had a really great time in Novecento hotel, room was wonderfull and staff very helpfull. I was glad I was able to bring my dog as well, so kind!
The hotal is small, exactly was i was looking for. Hope to come back in a short time
Davvero un gioiello!
Io e mio marito siamo stati a Venezia moltissime volte, direi che finalmente abbiamo trovato l’hotel del cuore in cui tornare in futuro. Location perfetta, arredamento di gran gusto e molto curato, pulizia perfetta, colazione super varia anche in questi tempi di Covid, ma soprattutto la gentilezza e disponibilità di Gioele e di tutta la “Romanellis family” sono impagabili! Sempre pronti a darti consigli, sono stati molto attenti e disponibili! Super consigliato
We had booked the Hotel Flora for our family trip to Venice in July, but were redirected to Novecento because of the Corona pandemic. What a lucky coincident! We found the Novecento to be a charming, stylisch, centrally located and yet most private little hideway in a city that is (normally) so crowded and busy. Even though it was our first time to see La Serenissima, Gioele and his team gave us the feeling of being at home with dear friends. Regardless of all the difficulties the pandemic must have caused them when reopening the hotel, their hospitaliy was flawless. We also appreciated their guidance regarding where to go and what to do, which added tremendously to our Venice trip being an unforgettable experience – for parents and children alike…! We will definately be back, thank you so much!
Gioele and the team were really kind and helpful throughout our stay. They were always quick to reply on email or what’s app while we were there helping us to book restaurants or to give us tips of where to go next. The hotel was charming with clean and comfy rooms and it is a perfect location very near st marks with nearby vaporettos to take you anywhere you want. They have a partnership with a glass factory in murano that they organised us to go to – this was a highlight of the trip!
Eccellente!
L’albergo ci è piaciuto da ogni punto di vista: ubicazione centrale, accoglienza, disponibilità e gentilezza dei gestori e del personale, pulizia della stanza e dotazione. Lo abbiamo già consigliato e ci torneremo.
Novecento is a jewel in the heart of Venezia.
Its staff is super friendly and helpful.
The location is perfect.
I also love the fact you are a plastic free hotel : we must help our planet and everyone must do the best.
Thank you so much!
I loved the vibe of the hotel! The location is excellent, it’s so quiet, the beds super comfortable, the breakfast was good… and of course the team made us feel very welcome and at home. I would definitely book again or with one of their sister hotels in Venice. Thank you Novecento!
Charmantes Hotel im Herzen von Venedig. Schönes, sauberes Zimmer, romantischer Patio zum Frühstücken, wird in Coronazeiten am Tisch serviert. Außerordentlich freundliches und kompetentes Personal mit prima Sightseeing-Tips.
Gerne wieder.
Les grands parents et leurs deux petits enfants venus de France , en pleine saison difficile avec l’épidémie. Un havre de quiétude, de gentillesse, de vie vénitienne raffinée et plaisante. Et de bons souvenirs pour tous.
Tout ce qui rend l’atmosphère inoubliable et des hôtes charmants, attentifs ; beaucoup plus facile pour passer des journées de visites et de promenades. Merci sincèrement.
Piccolo hotel molto particolare ed accogliente, riservato e silenzioso. Arredamento tra l’epoca e l’etnico, dove predominano tappeti, drappi, stoffe e legno scuro. Solamente 9 le camere, ognuna diversa dall’altra, ognuna un esclusivo e luminoso angolo dove godersi momenti di puro relax. Cassetta di sicurezza, climatizzatore, piccolo frigobar, wifi, led tv e musica jazz di sottofondo. Sanitari moderni, prodotti da bagno (non ho trovato cuffie da doccia… probabilmente non ne forniscono essendo plastic free) ampio box doccia ed asciugacapelli. Elegante e piacevole il salotto del piano superiore, particolare ed ospitale quello a piano terra. Colazione non molto varia ma curata ed in linea con la qualità della struttura. Personale cortese e disponibile. La sensazione è davvero quella di trovarsi in una casa intima e curata, certamente in un hotel dal carattere unico.
What a perfect little hotel. Lovely interior with very good recommendations for the day. We were well catered for our stay. Great rest for tiring days. We loved Rosa Rossa. Keep up the great work and your personal attention.
Our first time in Venice, and to have found this wonderful gem of a hotel was wonderful luck! Charming, cozy, authentic. The Romanelli’s welcome you like family to their own home. The staff is exceptional, the breakfast marvelous, the atmosphere genuine. Look forward to staying again in the future.
The Novecento is simply unique. Nice people, perfect service, great location and an exceptional interior. I discovered the Novecento some time ago. In the meantime I have been there three times. And I am sure that I will choose the Novecento for my next stay in Venice. Thank you very much for the great hospitality!
Wonderful 3 nights at Novocento. Couldn’t have been better. Hotel perfect. Thank you!
My comment is very brief and clear: You are running this gem of a Boutique Hotel in a Perfect way and I Hope to See You again every year. Warmest regards from Hamburg! Dr. Veit Becker
Aqua alta tests everyone. If a hotel can remain operating, cheerful, tidy and able to find restaurants to feed their guests, you know you have found a gem. This was our fourth stay. We visit the biennale every other year and it never occurs to us to look for an alternative. Price/value aside, the rooms are spacious, quiet and comfortable and the location is perfect for getting around without being in the middle of the madness. And the breakfast is near perfect. We hope that the Romanellis continue despite the disasters. If so, we will be there again in 2021.
Yet again the perfect home away from home! A huge thank you to Nirvana, and all the other team members whose names I have forgotten. From the easy arrival in the morning (just in time for a first Cappucino) to the great restaurant recommendations (of all kinds of restaurants… from simple and authentic to high-end), to the wonderful room. This was not my first time at the Novecento, and it most certainly wasn’t the last. Also, I LOVE the fact that you have dedicated yourselves to going plastic-free. Mille grazie.
We had a marvelous time at the Novecento. For a more complete review, please see our article at:

Small but beautiful boutique hotel. Best stay and staff were friendly and attentive.
Will be back again at Novencento.
Un angolo di quiete e pace, torneremo e consiglieremo agli amici di passare da voi!
This unique and intimate hotel situated in the very heart of Venice is, at the same time, a quiet and peaceful location within steps of the Canal Grande and directly across from the Guggenheim Museum. The nearby Ponte Accademia bridge crosses the canal to Dorsoduro and leads directly to the Accademia. As artists looking for Renaissance Art to view, we were able to simply walk and arrive at all of our many destinations within a half hour from the hotel. We even walked to view the 2019 Biennale of Contemporary Art at the Arsenal and the Giardini. When returning to Novecento in the afternoon, refreshments were always available such as coffee, tea, pastries etc. and the “honour system” Bar. The intimate courtyard garden is beautiful at this time of day. The guest rooms were wonderfully appointed with intriguing furniture and fine works of art.. Breakfast choices were excellent and included not only a generous array of traditional Continental buffet choices but custom-ordered omelettes and cappuccino. Ours was a 10-day stay and the hotel staff provided excellent recommendations for restaurants, services and locations that we would otherwise have missed.
Very highly recommended. We shall return ourselves !
Linda and Peter.
We loved staying at your lovely hotel, as it felt very private and cozy yet with all amenities we could have wished for. We will definitely recommend and return to it, as it seems the perfect place for us to stay – after having tried various alternatives over the years. The only suggestion we´d like to make with regards to your environmental friendliness is to replace the little plastic packed portions of Nutella at the breakfast with a big jar or suspender the guests can take their portions of. Thank you for having us.
Dear Leily,
Thank you for the kind words. We are very glad to inform you that we have just replaced the little Nutella packages with a big glass jar. Step by step, we are making all the necessary changes to improve ecological sustainability. We await to have you back soon, please consider Novecento your home in Venice! A warm wish from all the staff and Romanelli family. Yours, Gea
Wonderful, small hotel right in the centre, but far away from the crazy crowds. Very nice people and service. The hotel tips for restaurants are fantastic and made the trip very special. This place is highly recommended. Thank you!
Dear Giovanni,
Thank you for the much appreciated feedback. All that cares to us is to make our guests satisfied and comfortable, we are happy to read that you had a gratifying stay at Novecento. Hoping to have you back soon, we remain at your complete disposal. Kindest wishes from all the staff and Romanelli family. Yours, Gea
Novecento was an absolute dream! From the unique decor, to the warm reception from everyone hosting/working at the Inn, our stay was an extraordinary welcome to Italy. Of the five places that we stayed throughout our 17-day trip through the country, hands down, Novecento was tops. We couldn’t recommend it more!
Dear Kimberly,
What a pleasure to read your lovely words, it couldn’t make us more proud! We are so glad you enjoyed our taste and touch, we truly thank you for sharing your gratification. Awaiting to have you back again soon, we send you a warm wish from here. Kindest regards from all the staff of Novecento and Romanelli family. Yours, Gea
Novecento and its “bigger brother”, Hotel Flora, have been our “go to” hotels in Venezia since 2005, with Novecento being our primary place to stay. The proprietors, Gioele and Heiby Romanelli, and their staff always take wonderful care of us during our visits. There is no issue too large or too small that they are not willing to help with, be it transportation arrangements, dining recommendations, advice on what to see and do in Venezia, or simply a casual conversation about the goings on of life. So long as Venezia is “above water”, we’ll be making Novecento our home away from home.
Hemos pasado dos días en el Hotel Novecento y nos ha encantado, tanto que estamos deseando volver a Venecia y poder disfrutar mas tiempo en este precioso hotel. Nos recibió Renata maravillosamente, nos hizo sentir como en casa. Al día siguiente Nirvana también fue muy amable, todo el personal es realmente simpático y te facilitan lo que necesites. El hotel es elegante, acogedor, decorado con un gusto exquisito, y se nota que se ha puesto mucho amor al hacerlo. Es muy confortable. La situación es céntrica pero en una zona tranquila. El desayuno exquisito, todo casero y delicioso. Su lista de direcciones para conocer la ciudad es perfecta, ayuda mucho a encontrar lo mejor de Venecia. Para nosotros ha sido el hotel perfecto. Felicidades a todo el equipo, propietarios y personal . ¡Muchas gracias! Volveremos!
The hosts were very welcoming and friendly and helpful with advice. Our flight arrived at 930 am and when we got there we were able to check into our room early and offered cappuccino and croissants. The rooms very nicely decorated. They were quiet. Bed was comfortable. Breakfast very good with lots of options. Fresh fruit, meats, cheese, yogurt, breads and eggs cooked to order.
Location central and easy to walk anywhere. We would definitely stay here again if we return to Venice. This was a second stay for our friends staying here as well, a first for us.
Starting from the warm welcome when we checked in, the staff at Novecento made us feel like we were old friends staying at their beautiful home. Nothing was too much trouble at this neighbourhood gem, located a 10 minute walk from St Mark’s square and in a side street adjacent to a square filled with cafes and restaurants in one direction and a pretty shop lined walk with artists, bridges and gondalas the other. The hotel was quiet and private, and yet we still felt the friendliness of our hosts. I’d love to stay here again on a return trip to Venezia! Thank you for making our stay so special.

Another Lovely Stay
This was my second stay at Novecento and it continues to live up to all expectations. This time it was the middle of summer – last time it was the dead of winter – but both experiences were just as lovely. The hotel is very central but quiet and its ‘off the beaten track’ location is perfect, the warm hospitality, beautiful interiors and excellent service all contributed to a most enjoyable stay. My room was large and totally quiet, the common areas of the hotel are comfortable and the breakfast generous and delicious. The staff were extremely helpful and kind. I could not fault Novecento and will definitely stay there on my next visit to Venezia. Grazie mille.
Francesca Hynes, Sydney (Australia)
We were made extremely welcome from the moment we arrived. Nothing was too much trouble and everyone was so helpful; whether it was with suggestions for places to eat or offering us boots on our last night because of the risk of flooding due to the high tide. The breakfasts were excellent and we really appreciated that everything was available for us when we had an early, pre-breakfast time departure on the final morning. A really tranquil place to stay, yet close to all the main sites and attractions. The complementary afternoon coffee and cake is a lovely touch. Thank you for a super stay!
Eine Wohlfühloase in mitten des Trubels der Straßen.Ein modernes retro hotel.gemütlich und ruhig,aber trotzdem nah zu allen Sehenswürdigkeiten.den Markusplatz erreicht man in 10 min.das Frühstück ist mit liebe gemacht und sehr lecker.auch der nachmittags/abend snack hat uns immer gerettete.das ganze team ist sehr zuvorkommend.mann ist wie in einer familie aufgenommen,ohne aufdringlich zusein.
Den kleinen Garten/Terrasse haben wir geliebt.
Ein Geheintip für venedig.wir kommen auf jedenfall wieder.
My husband and I had a wonderful stay at the Novecento for is 40th birthday treat this month. The hotel was in a great location, the rooms were spacious and comfortable (and immaculate!) and the staff couldn’t have been nicer or more attentive. We would love to visit Venice again in future years and when we do, we will definitely be coming back to the Novecento. Grazie mille for a wonderful stay!
Relaxing treat for my birthday
We had an absolutely lovely stay at Novecento and loved the cake with afternoon tea. Beautiful room, very peaceful and plenty of books to read after a busy day. Excellent location and thank you to all the staff who were very helpful to us.
We felt at home right away
Our stay could not be any better. The hosts were warm and helpful. The 24/7 reception made us feel at ease and well taken care of. Every morning we excitedly woke up to a simple but nice breakfast in a most lovely courtyard. The surrounding was tranquil and only 1 minute walk to the water. All in all, a perfect location within walking distance to most attractions but hidden from the crowd. Thank you and we will definitely be back.
A delightful hotel with delightful staff
We had a lovely stay at the Novecento Hotel, it was perfect for us, very quiet, lovely beds and linens and enough space for everything. Marisa and the staff looked after us with courtesy and understanding. It was one of the best hotel stays that I have had for some time, a real oasis of calm.
Recent Stay at the Novecento
We stayed at the hotel for three nights in July and had a fantastic experience. The hotel is in a great location and close to everything. More importantly, the staff at the hotel went out of their way to be helpful and were proactive in guiding us about retaurant choices and places to visit. The rooms and surroundings are fun, different, authentic and enjoyable. I would highly recommend this hotel and will definitely re-visit them when I am back in Venice on another vacation.
Thank You!
Dear Gioele and Heiby, Jean and I wanted to thank you for your very gracious hospitality during our stay last week. We were very impressed with how generous you were with your time and willingness to help us figure out our various walking tours and (of course) the restaurants. It was greatly appreciated! Also, we wanted to thank the rest of your colleagues at the hotel, one of whom even helped us to our water taxi at 7:15 a.m. on our last day (and made us espressos to-go very early that morning). Everyone was incredibly helpful. Lastly, I wanted to compliment you on the interior of the hotel – it was a nice mixture of old-world Venice, mid-century modern (and present-day modern), and Moroccan chic! In my own work (architecture), I tend to combine the old and new world, and I thought you hit the mark very well. The place had a great feel and I particularly enjoyed the omnipresent sound of jazz. I will happily refer your hotel to our friends! If you are ever out our way in San Francisco, let us know! Best, Ken Linsteadt
Our stay at Novecento
We arrived for three nights at Novecento on April 28th. It was a beautiful experience throughout: a charming, comfortable room; warm, wonderful staff who helped us for all our enquiries; engaging public rooms with lovely breakfast and afternoon tea; very convenient location. We want to come back as soon as possible! Florence and Paul, Brisbane, Australia.

Venice holiday 21st to 25 th July 201
We would like to compliment you on the tasteful and elegant but comfortable interiors. The rooms spotless with stunning toiletries , clean thick fluffy towels as well as beautiful linen, the airconditioner a wonderful relief after along hot muggy day! TAsty buffet breakfast and honesty bar on offer all day and night. Shall miss the morning chats on how to spend the day, where, when etc!! As well as restaurant recommendations which were outstanding, feels like we are leaving friends behind! Thanks for making our stay extra special and hope to visit this special city again. Many thanks, love Gavin and Tracy, look us up if you ever in SA
Fantastic Gem with amazing people!
Novocento was an incredible find, enhancing, if not actually making our stay in Venice! Extremely well located for all the interesting sights and restaurants, but mostly, the most comfortable bed, with beautiful crisp bed linen and towels. The breakfast, teas and pastries served in the courtyard or comfortable lounge/siting area, were perfect! What made our stay was the friendly and efficient staff and personal attention to every detail from before we arrived to our departure-Gracie miele!!
Beautiful!
I cannot rate this B&B highly enough. So peaceful and tranquil, the personal accommodation was impeccable, with original decoration and rustic features, while the communal areas were again, uniquely decorated and really inviting. Eating a delicious and filling breakfast in the little garden was a gorgeous way to start the day and relaxing in the upstairs lounge was perfect after a long, busy day! I’d love to visit in the colder months to sit in front of a roaring fire! The staff were so, so friendly and approachable and the location was absolutely fantastic! I can’t wait to return!
To Praise the Place
This was such a lovely, tucked away hotel with courtesies from the exemplary, friendly staff that simply are not found elsewhere. From the moment we arrived, everyone on all changing shifts gave us the same high level of recognition and guest treatment. From staff to food to jazz radio.com, things were thought out and appreciated.
Merveilleux séjour
J’ai passé quatre merveilleux jours à Venise avec ma petite fille et notre séjour à l’hôtel a été une réussite. Je n’ai pas regretté mon choix. D’abord un petit hôtel où vous êtes considéré comme une personne privilégiée. Ensuite, une excellente situation : la rue est calme et le Dorsoduro, que j’aime beaucoup, est tout près. Les hôtes sont charmants, toujours prêts à vous informer, vous rendre la vie facile, faire des suggestions. Bref, quand nous rentrions le soir de nos longues promenades dans Venise, nous étions toutes heureuses, comme si ns revenions chez nous. Nous étions accueillies comme des personnes appréciées et non comme des clients. C’est cela, l’hospitalité. Et quel bonheur, le soir, de pouvoir monter une infusion ds ma chambre. Un grand merci à toute l’équipe, toujours disponible et souriante.
