Highlights
Location: On the Grand Canal, 2 min walk from train station
“Hotel Canal & Walter's prime location right on the Grand Canal puts guests steps from Venice's bustle. The building's historic character is appealing, and a garden offers a spot for breakfast. However, some rooms may need attention, and be aware of potential noise given the central area.”
