Stayed at the Ca' Formenta with my parents for a weekend, and I have to say that the location of the hotel is really nice. Just far enough away from the tourist zones to feel more relaxed, yet still really easy to walk to most sites. And quite easy to get to from the train or bus stations. We had... more

3 adults traveling together and managed to get a front room over looking the water, even if it's across the walk way. The room was huge with a decent size bath. The only thing is the lobby is small so having breakfast, which was included, in the lobby was tight so we always went out front. Who wouldn't want to... more

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Ca' Formenta. The receptionist upgraded our room to one with a view for no charge, and the rooms were good sized for the price and very clean. Location was nice, about a 10 - 15 minute walk from St. Mark's square. Breakfast was good. Really couldn't say a bad thing about Hotel Ca' Formenta.... more

The Ca’Formenta is a small, well equipped Hotel situated conveniently for exploring Venice on foot and by water. We bought 72 hour water bus tickets and reached the Hotel by the Alilaguna boat from Marco Polo Airport which stops only two bridges from the Hotel. The journey was easy and the 1 hour 5 minute trip was a lovely way... more

We stayed at Ca' Formenta on St. Mark's (and WW II Liberation) Day and the following day. Following the Venetian St. Mark's Day tradition, the front desk presented the ladies in my group a red rose when we checked in, which was a nice touch. The staff was friendly, helpful, and fun to talk with too. Everyone speaks English. They... more
