Hotel Pausania, Venice

Venice's Hotel Pausania was once an aristocrat's residence. With its attractive canalside location, it is now an elegant hotel offering three-star accommodation in a conveniently central location in downtown Venice (Venezia). This atmospheric Gothic palazzo is bursting with charm and character, having been carefully restored to offer 21st-century comforts while preserving the original details - these include the ancient stone staircase, a handful of beautiful coffered ceilings and an original stone well.

The Hotel Pausania has 26 tastefully furnished rooms, all with private bathroom, cable television, radio, direct-dial telephone and a minibar containing snacks and drinks. Rooms are air-conditioned in summer and heated in winter and well-appointed bathrooms contain a selection of complimentary toiletries plus a bathrobe and a built-in hairdryer. Every room is individual and each has an integral seating area; many have pretty, typically Venetian views.

There is a bright and airy communal sitting room on the second floor of this hotel in Venice, as well as a welcoming ground floor bar where guests can make use of the free internet access. An Italian-style breakfast is served in the morning on the shady veranda, which looks out on to the hotel garden. Children are welcome here; there is a babysitting service plus an outdoor play area and under-threes stay free of charge in their parents' room.

This Venice hotel has 24-hour service on the front desk and a porter is available around the clock to assist with baggage and show you to your room. There is also a useful currency exchange and a left luggage facility.
