About the Hotel
Venetian Palace Accommodations
Hotel Al Ponte Mocenigo occupies 2 floors of a historic Venetian building with 15 rooms featuring 18th-century style furniture, Murano glass chandeliers, and original exposed beam ceilings. Rooms include high-speed Wi-Fi, adjustable air conditioning, satellite TV, and minibars. Junior Suites on the first floor offer four-poster canopy beds and views of Rio di San Stae or the courtyard. Ground floor standard rooms have cream-colored walls and soundproofing, while economy rooms provide the same amenities at reduced rates.
Courtyard Breakfast Service
A dedicated breakfast room on the ground floor serves pastries and fresh fruit. During warmer months, breakfast moves to the sunny courtyard with ancient columns and an antique wellhead. The hotel does not have onsite restaurants but staff provide recommendations for local Venetian cuisine at nearby establishments like Campo San Giacomo and Campo Santa Margherita.
Historic Courtyard Setting
The hotel features a private marble bridge leading to a characteristic courtyard with flowers, columns, and ancient statues. Guests can enjoy evening drinks in this space during summer months. The property overlooks peaceful Rio di San Stae canal and includes a private water entrance for water taxi access.
