What reviewers say

Visitors consistently praise the hotel's stunning Grand Canal location, excellent staff service, and the enjoyable breakfast on the terrace. However, some guests found the bathtubs difficult and potentially dangerous to get in and out of, while others were disappointed with room assignments or the continental breakfast quality.

About this place Hotel Palazzo Stern

Hotel Palazzo Stern, a boutique stay in a Gothic palazzo on Venice’s Grand Canal, gives guests a canal‑side terrace, a rooftop terrace, and rooms that mix period furnishings with modern bathrooms. The hotel sits on the Grand Canal in Dorsoduro, right beside the Ca' Rezzonico vaporetto stop. Inside, the rooms lean into the building’s history with period furniture, but the bathrooms are all contemporary. Palazzo Stern is marketed as a mainstream, gay‑friendly hotel in the top price range, not as a niche gay hotel, and it shows up in guides as a comfortable spot for same‑sex couples. A short walk takes you to Campo Santa Margherita, Dorsoduro’s go‑to evening spot with a handful of bars. If you arrive by water taxi, it can drop you right at the canal entrance near the hotel.
