Oh this blessed house. A tiny ceramic Madonna, mounted near the front door gives heavenly approval of this miniature 11-room, charm-packed jewel. Ten minutes from the station, on the border of Santa Croce and Dorsoduro, the Hotel Locanda Salieri and its one star shine.
Furnished in dark woods and chunky antiques, the miniature hotel seems like it's a dollhouse. Rooms, though tiny, exude the finest of taste. You'll be happy to bed down among clean white walls, delicate lace curtains, oriental rugs, and soft-colored bedding.
More than half the rooms have a balcony—many overlook the Canal del Gaffaro. However keep your cicchetti cravings under control: it's tight squeeze through the original glass doors to miniscule, though wholly romantic balconies.
Bathrooms match the mini scheme, but they also gleam in every colorfully tiled corner. A sister hotel to the Locanda Art Deco and Albergo Sam Samuele, the youthful management is friendly and super helpful. |
