Duodo Palace – A Favorite for Families in Venice

Duodo Palace sits in the San Marco district, a 5-minute walk from St. Mark's Square and next to Teatro La Fenice. The hotel has a private water gate that allows direct water taxi access to and from the property. Guests can take a water taxi from the airport or train station straight to the hotel door, bypassing the bridges and narrow streets.

The 28 rooms are set in a restored 17th-century building with original frescoes on walls and ceilings, and Murano glass chandeliers in public areas. Deluxe rooms offer canal views or views over Venetian rooftops, and some include private balconies. Bathrooms feature marble finishes, and all rooms have air conditioning and satellite TV.

The on-site restaurant serves a daily continental breakfast and local cocktails in the evening. The lounge bar offers traditional Venetian aperitifs such as spritz and prosecco. Guests can also order breakfast in the room or choose from a snack bar and wine/champagne list.

The concierge desk arranges exclusive private excursions and guided tours of Venice's historic sites through hotel partnerships. Staff can book tickets for local events and festivals, and provide information on walking tours and gondola rides. Babysitting services are available for families, and luggage storage is offered for late departures.

The hotel has an elevator serving multiple floors and wheelchair-accessible rooms with emergency cords in bathrooms and raised toilets. Family rooms are available, and children can be accommodated with extra beds on request. Soundproof rooms and a shared lounge area with TV provide quiet spaces for all guests.
