My sister and I stayed here earlier this month and we very much enjoyed our stay. Venice was 30+ degrees and sunny, so it was nice to have air conditioning and a portable fridge (i.e. very small) with cold water in it. The staff were very polite, friendly, and helpful across the board. They made some good recommendations of places... more

My husband, daughter, and I just returned home after spending five nights at Oltre il Giardino. We are already planning a return visit for early next year. Oltre il Giardino is located on a small canal behind the Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari church, in a quiet location not overwhelmed by large groups of tourists but close to excellent restaurants... more

We stayed in a Junior Suite - the "Blue Room" for 5 nights in May 2008 at EUR 250 p/night and were very happy with this boutique hotel. We arrived quite late at night in the rain, after a long train trip and lugging our suitcases up and down the bridges from the train station. We were greeted by Emanuelle... more

My husband and I stayed at Oltre Il Giardino for five nights in May, 2008, as we were in Venice for part of our honeymoon. We absolutely LOVED everything about this hotel -- I don't even feel it's accurate to call it a "hotel" - it's more like staying at a Venetian's home -- a really NICE, beautiful, private home.... more

This was my first visit to Venice and did a lot of research on where to stay. I wanted somewhere central, but quiet, and I was prepared to pay a fair bit to get somewhere special. Oltre Il Giardino won hands down, and the reality turned out to match the dream. The standard of service was exceptional, but friendly and... more

this property is centrally located in san polo and is an easy walk to most attractions and the best restaurants. we bought a 3-day boat taxi pass but only used it twice as it was more pleasant and convenient to walk and explore the charming streets. the room we had on the top floor was spacious and furnished with a... more

This B&B will exceed all expectations. The place is beautiful, the building is perfect, it is exceptionally well run and the staff are tremendous. It is centrally located, yet wonderfully quiet, intimate but not intrusive and the breakfasts are to die for! You will not find a better B&B/hotel in Venice. What more can we say? more

Wonderful place, wonderful people. Our third visit to Venice and previously we have stayed in a 5 star hotel on the Grand Canal. This time looking for something more personal (better value) we came across Oltre Il Giardino after much research. We stayed in the green suite on the ground floor – it was beautiful. It has its own little... more
