I spent 3 incredible days in Venice with my husband, celebrating our 4th aniversary. The hotel was recommended by one of our friends and we were not dissapointed at all. Venice is a beautiful city, the kind that you could easily fall in love with. And Locanda Sturion is the perfect hotel in Venice: its inside looks are very well... more

I and my husband stayed in this hotel in May 2008 for romantic week end! It was marvellous! Very good hotel for reasonable price! The location is perfect, the room was nice even if we did not have that nice view you can enjoy from the breakfast room. We had a very nice trip to the Murano island for free... more

We stayed at the Locanda Sturion for three days in July, 2006. At first we were daunted by the staircase--we had our two daughters with us ages 8 and 11--but began to look at it as a positive. We were eating enough pasta and gelato to gain weight, but after sightseeing and those stairs we managed to lose weight! The... more

My husband and I stayed in this hotel in July, 2006 and had a wonderful time. The only negative I found was the large flight of stairs. But, if you want the best view, you need to go up! If you can at all afford the rooms overlooking the canal - do it! The view was absolutely breathtaking out the... more

A great central location with fine views of the Grand Canal and Rialto Bridge ( from the dining area and front rooms). However, this hotel is located on the third floor and there are 70 ( yes 70 ) stairs up to hotel reception. If you are unlucky, you will get room 5 together with a bath that is too... more

I have read mixed reviews of this hotel but the only criticism that is justified refers to the 70 marble steps up to the reception - if you have bad knees stay somewhere else. Once you have climbed to the hotel the staff are friendly and helpful and the view from rooms 1 and 2 is the only one you'll... more

After a day of train travel, we arrived in Venice. Venice was absolutely beautiful and we were excited to get to our room for a shower and to cool off....we were sorely disappointed. We were faced with carrying our luggage up 6 flights of stairs. Our room was long and narrow and HOT! We had to sit around the air... more

Had room overlooking the Grand Canal and Riolto Bridge for 180 Euro's -- you just can't beat that !!! And the room was large and wonderful, the staff friendly and helpful, the breakfast great, and the internet free and fast. Yes, there are 70 steps up, so this is only good if you don't need an elevator, but I thought... more

We stayed here for three nights in June, having chosen it for its size (small often means more character) and convenient central location. However, the dreaded 69 steps make it less convenient, since you do think twice about popping back to the hotel – plus there’s the initial shock of seeing all those steps above you as you struggle up... more
