The Hotel Canaletto is a three-star, 38-room hotel between the Piazza San Marco and the Campo Santa Maria Formosa, in a house where the Venetian painter Canaletto once lived. It's convenient to shopping and within easy walking distance of the Rialto Bridge.

Some rooms have canal views, and all include free Wi-Fi. You can even bring your pet at no extra charge.
