The Experience

Step out of the lobby into the alley, and onto a small bustling square. Pick up a paper from the kiosk, choose a cafe for a coffee and a brioche.

This homely, friendly, unpretentious small hotel is a three-minute walk from everything that matters, from St Mark’s Square to the Bridge of Sighs. Modestly modernised with a breakfast room on the landing, it‘s great if you’re on a tightish budget. The best rooms are the corner rooms, with double aspect windows and heaps of space. More rooms await in ‘Ca’Marcella’, a 100m stroll. If you come as a family and prefer to self-cater, there’s a nice new apartment in ‘Ca’Pinelli’.

You’ll not be short of advice; a member of the family is always around. The San Zaccaria water buses are extremely close, and ferry you all over Venice.

Reviews

Giuliano and Marcella are real experts at making you feel at home in their hotel and in Venice. They worked hard at their dream of running their own hotel, renovating it from nothing, and never lost heart in the process.

Janine, Sawday's inspector

Just back from a wonderful holiday in Venice which was made perfect by our stay at Locanda al Leon. It’s a beautiful house, decorated in the traditional way, and central to everything we wanted to experience. We were warmly welcomed by Giuliano and Marcella and all the staff, who shared their stories and local knowledge to make our Venetian holiday so memorable. Thank you, all.

Introducing

Marcella & Giuliano dall’Agnola

In 1997 Giuliano and Marcella fell in love with the house, renovated from top to toe, and opened the following year. Passionate about their business, they are very welcoming and kind. They live on the Lido in summer and in Ca'Pinelli the rest of the year.
