Hotel American Dinesen

On Venice’s San Vio canal in Dorsoduro, the hotel sits in the city’s Art District. Steps from the Peggy Guggenheim Collection and the Accademia, it’s within a 15‑minute walk of St. Mark’s Square, the Grand Canal and Teatro La Fenice.

This 30‑room, four‑star property offers air‑conditioned rooms with minibars, LCD TVs and safes. Superior canal‑view rooms come with balconies and some offer partial Grand Canal vistas. Bathrooms include tubs or showers and bidets, and there’s a terrace and garden overlooking the canal.

Complimentary wireless internet across public areas and in rooms, 24‑hour reception, concierge and a private dock for water taxi and gondolas. Enjoy a bar/lounge, snack bar/deli and a breakfast room. Limited onsite parking is available — and balcony rooms let you wake up to canal breezes.
