The Charm Suites

Centrally located in Venice, steps from Guglie Bridge and Palazzo Labia and a short walk to Rialto Bridge and St. Mark's Basilica. Pet-friendly and family-friendly, it sits near San Rocco, Ca' d'Oro and Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari.

A small, urban hideaway with just a few air-conditioned rooms that mix hotel comfort with apartment-style kitchenettes. Rooms feature showers, flat-screen TVs with cable, laptop-compatible safes and desks, and limited housekeeping.

Tour/ticket assistance and an on-site tour desk make sightseeing easy. Pets are welcome and babysitting/childcare is available (surcharge). Wireless internet is offered for a fee, and the kitchenettes let you self-cater between canal strolls.

Practical services for short stays: dry cleaning and laundry, luggage storage and a front-desk safe deposit box. Wireless internet access is available (surcharge).

Rooms with kitchenettes allow light cooking and self-catering. A short walk leads to nearby cafés and local Venetian eateries for seafood, cicchetti and classic regional flavors.
