Stayed in the junior suite in mid-August. Almost everything about this hotel was fantastic: Location, staff, cleanliness, bar and restaurant, views, etc. but the air conditioning was woefully inadequate for summer weather. We called the concierge a couple of times about the temperature of our room, but the coldest it ever got, even late at night, was 76°F/24°C. The room was luxurious, but we never got a good night’s sleep due to the hot room.
This gorgeous historic building has AC in your room! But the roof top is permanently closed. If you are looking for a romantic hot tub looking at the grand canal you will be disappointed.
My wife and I spent 9 days in Venice and each was a treat. We spent the entire time at the Palazzo Stern. It was a great experience. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The hotel was easy to reach and right on the Grand Canal. It was nice not to have to carry our luggage around the small streets of Venice. Very accessible to all the sites, especially with one of the Vaporetto stops right next to the hotel. Very close to local restaurants and cicchetti bars. Next time we come to Venice, we will be returning to the Palazzo Stern.
We stayed here instead of San Marco district and were so happy. Venice is smaller than it looks and very walkable, we only had to walk 5min and were at the accademia bridge to go into San Marco (pictured is the view from the accademia bridge). Plus because it is in the dorsoduoro district it is a way better value for the room. The bathroom was AMAZING and all marble. The room was beautiful as well. The hotel was an old palazzo so there is art and history all around you (pictured). The terrace had a nice view of the water, breakfast was super easy (we just walked out to the terrace and ordered. when we checked in they told us what breakfast was included with our reservation). The staff were great! Easy to navigate the hotel and city with English. Our tour guides picked us up from the hotel lobby and walked us in to the rest of venice without issue.
I had an exceptional stay at Hotel Palazzo Stern. The rooms were extremely clean and surprisingly spacious, offering both comfort and elegance. The staff were wonderfully kind and attentive, always ready to help with a smile. The location is unbeatable, right on the Grand Canal, with breathtaking views that make every moment feel special. A perfect Venetian experience - I can’t recommend it highly enough!
