My second time staying at Hotel Flora, and I’ll absolutely be returning. The location is ideal, and what stands out even more is the service. Everyone who works there is friendly and helpful, from the front desk to the breakfast room. A special shout out to Marco who provided us with detailed information to navigate the vaporetto stop and it’s schedule.
We were just coming back to Venice from an 8 day bicycle tour in the Dolomites, and we were very tired after that. Hotel Flora was a welcoming and comfortable place for us to recover and rest, and to enjoy our time in Venice. This was our first trip to the city, and we were very pleased with hotel choice and location. All of the staff was friendly and helpful. We want to give special praise to the evening desk colleague, Marco, who gave us some excellent restaurants to try, and suggestions for things to see. Grazie!
Our stay in July 22 -25 was the second time in Hotel Flora and once again it was perfect.
The ideal location for visiting Venice , a very friendly staff a beautiful house , a romantic garden.
Whenever we visit Venice again: ONLY Hotel Flora
Only positive things to say about Hotel Flora! What an absolute gem. The hotel is beautiful, the ambience sweet, and the personnel are incredible and so helpful. We received so much help finding the best restaurants in the city and one of the women in the reception spent hours on helping us find an alternative way to Croatia when our ferry was cancelled from Venice. Can’t recommend enough!
We had such a beautiful stay at Hotel Flora. The location was fantastic, and the service was exceptional. Marco was extremely helpful and served as a great tour guide, spending time helping us discover the best attractions and how to get around. It was truly a pleasure.
We enjoyed our stay in June 2024; the hotel is an oasis of calm and greenery yet so close to the heart of Venice. The team were all unfailingly helpful and patient, the breakfast delicious, our room elegant and quiet. We look forward to staying again.
Lovely & very comfortable hotel, very convenient location, and warm friendly staff. Breakfast and cocktails in the garden were charming. Very happy with my stay.
We stayed at Hotel Flora for 2 nights. It was conveniently located near San Marco Plaza. The hotel was beautiful and the front desk service was amazing. I loved the mornings eating breakfast in the beautiful patio. I would definitely visit again.
We absolutely cherished our time at Hotel Flora. The location, the lovely house, the peaceful courtyard, and above all, the PEOPLE, and the kindness they exude at every turn. This may have been the most pleasant hotel stay I have ever experienced. Thank you Hotel Flora, we love you!
Our stay, as always, was a great delight
The charming , accommodating staff always makes our visit special
The hotel, gardens, rooms and its services constantly comfort us.
Hotel Flora is very special
What a find, we have stayed in Novacento a few times and due to mobility issues, we decided to book Hotel Flora this trip. Both hotels have a warm family feel, taking care of their guests on an individual personal basis. You are a person, not a number, which you often experience at the larger hotels. The staff were all very chatty, helpful and accommodating. Location wise, it cannot get better, being at the heart of Venice. We loved the bar/breakfast room, outside patio area and both our rooms. The hotel is very clean and tidy. Give it a try, you will not be disappointed.
My friend and I stayed five nights at Hotel Flora. We love this hotel! A peaceful haven off of a busy and beautiful street, so close to everything. The room was lovely, the garden was charming. Staff were kind and helpful, the food and drink were delicious. Highly recommended!

Loved Hotel Flora. A perfect, quiet oasis right in the heart of Venice City. What we enjoyed most was our aperitivi in the garden before dinner, what a treat! The staff at Hotel Flora are friendly and genuine and made our stay a real pleasure. Grazie a tutti!
Our first trip to Venice. Lovely hotel near the Piazza San Marco and the high end shopping area in Venice. Restaurants abound within a short walk. We had a room which overlooked the garden area, and pretty much as picture perfect as you’d imagine. Staff were very helpful, and breakfast was a delight in the charming sitting area.
The Hotel Flora is a wonderful Hotel in the heart of Venice. The staff were extremely helpful, kind and attentive to all our needs during our stay. Not only did they provide advice about things to do in Venice but they even helped with securing last minute restaurant reservations. The rooms were spacious and clean. The morning breakfast had everything you needed to start your day off on the right foot. The bar staff made great drinks and the lounge area was cozy and classy. Overall staying at the Hotel Flora you felt like family. I would highly recommend staying here if you plan to visit Venice.
After a long day of exploring magical Venice, it was such a pleasure and comfort to return to that quiet, friendly oasis called Hotel Flora. The service is top notch. Wonderful people! Great breakfast. Perfect location. The garden looked so inviting, however since it rained most of the time I was there, I was unable to enjoy it. Which is why I must return! Thank you Hotel Flora and the wonderful staff for making my stay in Venice so enjoyable.
It is not the first time at Hotel Flora, Kristina and I have been guests several times over the years and it doesn’t stop surprising us the atmosphere which is kind of magic, the garden, the breakfast room…you simply would not want to go out. So we keep coming! This last time we have particularly appreciated improvements in the rooms, impeccable the one we have got and everyone is always so friendly, relaxed and very professional. What else, can’t wait to be back! Giacomo, Kristina
We loved our stay at Hotel Flora – from the moment we arrived we were welcomed into such a gorgeous space by such friendly hosts. Our room was lovely, breakfast delicious & we enjoyed cocktails in the bar at night. Fabulous location & the Inside Venice guide provided was a great resource for exploring the city. We’ll be back!
A magical oasis in a wonderful city … I can’t imagine a better place to stay while in Venice. Kind, attentive staff. Lovely, historic building. Perfect location … it’s perfecto!
A wonderful, enchanting, quiet and dreamy place in the middle of the hustle and bustle of Venice. Tradition meets style, commitment meets class. Probably one of the most beautiful places to start and end your day in Venice. The friendliness and warmth of the host family and their staff is unsurpassable…
Thank you for a Venetian dream…
I recently had the pleasure of staying at this charming hotel in the heart of Venice for my special birthday weekend with my family. From the moment we arrived, we were enchanted by the romantic atmosphere and the beautiful garden that welcomed us.
The staff at the hotel were not only friendly, but also incredibly pleasant, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere during our stay. Their hospitality made us feel right at home.
One of the highlights of our stay was the delicious Italian breakfast served in a beautiful breakfast room that felt like a step back in time.
All in all, our stay at this hotel was nothing short of magical. From the romantic setting to the friendly staff and delicious breakfast, every aspect of our experience was memorable and wonderful. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone who wants a special and unforgettable stay in Venice.
We had a wonderful stay at the unique, beautiful, comfortable and convenient Hotel Flora! Our family of 4 would absolutely stay at this hotel again on future visits. Extremely helpful and pleasant staff made for a very enjoyable stay.
Thank you for your warm welcome and excellent service. The room was very comfortable and quiet and we really enjoyed the breakfast and evening drinks at the bar.
Thank you so much for all you did for our stay in Venice. We came to Venice without plans to just be able to explore. While we did that, you all were so helpful in filling in the gaps in what we needed. The rooms was great, the bed was great. We had a nice evening in the bar one night. We enjoyed the tour to see the glass work. If all hotels were as professional, attentive, and comfortable as yours, it would be a great vacation every time. I would recommend your hotel to anyone
We had a wonderful time at this charming hotel. The personnel who work there are fabulous and helpful, and multilingual. Leonora at the check in desk was particularly helpful and friendly. Kelloum in the bar was also very nice and outgoing. The breakfast was great and we could relax each evening with a drink in a quiet atmosphere. Just an excellent place to stay
We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Flora – the staff were so friendly and helpful, the breakfast was lovely, and the cocktails in the bar were just what we needed after a day of walking around beautiful Venice. It rained the whole time we were there (it was January) but we were never disappointed and have only wonderful memories of our time there. The location was ideal – very central but still quiet, the rooms were cosy and elegant, the Christmas lights were still up which gave a magical feel to everything and we couldn’t praise it highly enough.
We had the most wonderful time at the hotel Flora! Even from entering the property you have a feeling of returning to a friends house! Everyone was extremely helpful and joyful! Hotel Flora is as beautiful and charming as Venice and we can’t wait to come back! Thank you for the unforgettable experience!
I only have wonderful things to say about this hotel. The staff was accommodating and lovely. Breakfast was delicious. Morning staff was gracious and helpful. I would recommend this hotel
We stayed at hotel Flora for 4 nights and I can only recommend this hotel. All the staff was very friendly and helpful, the location is amazing and the rooms are very calm.
I have been visiting the Hotel Flora for over 25 years and it is always a super experience. Excellent service, lovely atmosphere, relaxed and informal, beautiful surroundings, especially the secluded garden which is a delight to relax in, even in winter. Central to everywhere I need to be as well. Everyone is so welcoming and with great attention to detail. After a gap with the pandemic years, it is such a pleasure to return to these lovely, familiar surroundings. Thank you to the Romanelli family and to your friendly staff.

What a wonderful and welcoming place to stay. A exemplary team looking after all our needs.
You made our wedding anniversary very special indeed.
5 stars all the way!!
PS: excellent cocktails!!!
Hotel Flora is a true gem in Venice. Imagine a Merchant & Ivory film, be it Howards End or A Room With A View, and you are right in the middle of the irresistible charm of Hotel Flora. Impeccable rooms, a skillful staff, the Romanelli family who assist you in getting the choicest and most authentic restaurants in Venice, the most sought after tickets for La Fenice or operas in palazzi you have never dreamed of. Hotel Flora comes with a price, but you don’t need to be old money to afford a stay at Hotel Flora. Just choose the right time in Venice and enjoy staying at the Avenue Montaigne of Venice (Le Figaro for Calle Larga XXII Marzio), near the churches of Santa Maria della Giglio and San Moisè and the Piazza San Marco.
We had organised a family weekend in Venice, particularly to celebrate our daughter’s 30th birthday. Hotel Flora was highly recommended by friends, and we all loved our stay. Small, comfortable, delightfully decorated, with delicious breakfast and a very inviting bar for pre dinner drinks. The hotel is also perfectly situated for exploring the city. The staff are absolutely lovely ; endlessly helpful and kind and interested in our plans. It felt like coming home every time we walked through the door.
We had a wonderful time in fall 2023 eleven days long. Hotelflora in the core center of Venice was an island of silence, beautyness serviced by a wonderful friendly team. Honestly everything is perfect, but first of all the garden, the breakfast, the bar managed all the time by an extraordinary team. To put it in one sentence: It was every day a feeling like coming home.
Many thanks!!
My second stay in Hotel, Flora, and having picked Venice for our 30th wedding anniversary, we were delighted with the hotel. We loved it, of course: location, staff, breakfast, tranquility.
the offered linked option of bespoke limo water taxi to hotel is poor value and includes a car taxi transfer and just 10 minutes on the canals; a shared vaperetto direct from airport is much cheaper and is all “on the water.”
I have stayed here for the second time now – it is such a wonderful place, doesn’t feel like a Hotel at all, very personal and incredibly beautiful. The courtyard where you could have breakfast weather permitting is stunning. The tips you get from Gioele and his team are the best. I’ll be back!!
We stayed four nights and had a wonderful time! HOTEL FLORA is a cosy and welcoming place in the heart of Venice. The ambience is typical and charming, the staff is more then friendly and very helpful. We hope to be back soon…
I was traveling solo in Venice and had a great stay at the Hotel Flora for 2 nights. The location is perfect as a base for exploring the city. The staff is really wonderful and helpful. I had an issue with my luggage lock and they graciously went out of their way to help me out – I appreciated this so much especially as I was alone! Everyone is very professional and friendly and can help out with any recommendations or booking water taxis, etc. The garden is absolutely beautiful and relaxing. I really enjoyed breakfast here as well as relaxing for a coffee or glass of wine. The room was also very clean and had everything I needed. Would definitely return next time I’m in Venice!
What a great experience staying at Hotel Flora. The Romanelli family went out of their way to make us feel welcome.
Location, room and service was absolutely exceptional.
They were fantastic hosts sitting down with us with map best places to go then walking us to water taxi to get us to Tronchetto to catch our bus to our cruise.
Truly remarkable service.
Definitely recommend this fantastic quaint hotel.
Thanks again for making our stay in Venice so special!
o the Entire Romanelli family and staff of Hotel Flora,
Thank you for making our stay truly wonderful. My husband and I were welcomed with open arms. You were kind to us and went out of your way to make us feel comfortable in your hotel and not only that, but helped us to get to know Venice. Thank you for sitting with us and showing us the Venice map,, suggesting eateries and activities, making reservations for us at different places and guiding us. Hotel Flora is very clean with lovely charming rooms, a beautiful garden in the center and great amenities. Breakfast was delicious. The air conditioning and shower were also great. You were our favorite place to stay on our 2 -week trip throughout Italy. Thank you!
I think I like staying at the hotel more than I like Venice. The staff is wonderful, the atmosphere is welcoming, calming and relaxing–an oasis. I have stayed here 3 or 4 times and each time has been a pleasure. The best breakfast I’ve had in any hotel and a prime location. But it was the staff which made this particular stay so memorable–everyone seems to have a vested interest in providing the best for the guests. I will definitely return and recommend to friends.
We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Flora in Venice which was part of our 2 week family trip to Italy in August. Was a great way to start our trip. Had a very friendly welcome and were given nice maps of the area. Everyone works seemed happy particularly the waitstaff at restaurant. Rooms were accommodating and clean. Breakfast was delicious and in a lovely garden. The location is superb and near many sites and shopping. Very lovely stay. Thank you.
What a wonderful and unexpected surprise!
The hospitality and the desire to truly help your guest was top notch!
Breakfast in the courtyard was such a treat.
I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone.
I had the most fabulous stay at Hotel Flora in July 2023. This is the first time I’ve returned to the hotel and indeed Venice in 17 years and I have to say I was not disappointed. Everything was truly fabulous, and I instantly felt all my stresses leave me and I had a wonderful relaxing 3 days. The staff are so friendly, helpful, and clearly have a first-class team working behind the scenes. I’m totally in love with this hotel and especially the garden, a perfect retreat to escape from the hustle and bustle of life. I look forward to returning very soon. Thank you, Hotel Flora.
Hotel Flora is a lovely hotel with beautiful garden and bar tucked into an alleyway not far from the Piazza San Marco. This was the first visit to Venice by me and my husband and we arrived the day before the Festa del Redentore celebration. We very much wanted to have dinner during the Festa where we could see the fireworks, and the front desk was able to get us a reservation at a wonderful restaurant on the water with the very best views of the amazing fireworks! Thank you for making this experience possible. It was the highlight of our trip and we will never forget it.
We loved this hotel! We did not want something on the major canals, but near them, and Hotel Flora was in the right location for us. Tucked away in a little alley of its own, right off of a street full of high-end designer shops, we felt very safe. Pierangela and Nicoletta were so welcoming! They helped us with everything and anything we needed, including reserving an earlier breakfast for our quick day trip to Padua., and escorting us to our transfers by private taxi. Our room was a nice size for a European hotel, and our bed was very comfortable (#44). The pretty view of Venetian rooftops from our window was magical. Although the bathroom was small, it was clean and good enough for us to be happy. The breakfast was delightful in the quaint courtyard covered with beautiful plants. We had perfect weather, so we enjoyed eating outside each morning. The bar area has an old world charm and serves great drinks and snacks -again, such great service. We truly loved it and would definitely stay there again.
Thank you for a wonderful time in the marvelous Hotel Flora. All the staff was super friendly and helpful in fulfilling our wishes. The hints for trips that suit our preferences were perfect, so we had a outstanding time in beautiful Venice!!
The hotel with the very nice rooms, the magical garden and staff that loves what they do is really special and we will definitely come back!
The true Venetian experience. Genuine interest in your experience of the hotel and Venice. Restaurant recommendations that are not just because of some relationship but because they are known to be sound, authentic places to eat.
Wonderful, knowledgeable staff who are proud of their city and it’s own special dialect.
Dear Diego,
Many thanks to you, the Romanelli Family, and all your staff at the Hotel Flora. We were so happy during our stay with you, and we look forward to returning some day soon.
Your hotel and your magical courtyard are absolutely beautiful, and your amazing staff are super welcoming and so helpful with every detail. We are especially grateful to your breakfast staff for providing allergy safe dairy free foods for our daughter, and to the lovely concierge who found us a last minute water taxi to the train station – and then walked us through all the passages to the canal where the boat was waiting.
Your kindness and service far exceeded anything we could have hoped for during our time in Venice! Many thanks again.
Kristen Knoebber
Hotel Flora is a fantastic hotel with very friendly, hospitable, and helpful staff that I would recommend to anyone traveling to Venice!
My wife and I stayed at Hotel Flora in May 2023 for two nights and we will certainly be back as soon as possible. Everyone at the hotel was extremely friendly, helpful, and kind and the hotel itself was perfect. We had arrived late due to travel issues and the staff were very accommodating and even had breakfast brought to our room so that we could rest after our long travel day and showed a genuine interest in our comfort which was very kind. The staff are terrific ambassadors of Venice, are extremely knowledgeable about the city, and were very helpful when giving us suggestions and advice about what to do and where to visit during our time in that amazing city.
We will certainly be back as soon as we can! Thank you Hotel Flora, you are the best!
This was our first time at Hotel Flora and it will not be our last! The staff is so friendly – Ciao to Stephano! I had a peaceful time in the garden enjoying a drink and reading – what a perfect respite during a fun but busy vacation. Everything was clean, the hotel was easy to find and the location is perfect. And – I LOVE that you are so committed to running a plastic free hotel. Grazie mille to all!
This was our 3rd time at the Hotel Flora. Each time, the staff have been so helpful and friendly, it has made our stay in Venice a real pleasurable experience. Great location. Unfortunately for us, this time the weather did not permit us to spend much time in the garden, but hopefully next time we will be able to relax outside more. Until then, good health and happiness to everyone at the Hotel Flora!
If I had only one word for Hotel Flora, it would be PERFECTION. Everything was wonderful, from the welcoming and helpful staff, to the lovely comfortable room, to the relaxing garden, delicious breakfast, and great location. When I return to Venice, this is where I will stay. Many thanks to all on the staff for providing everything we needed to enjoy our time in Venice. Grazie Mille!
Amazing stay in Venice at Hotel Flora!
We stayed 3 nights in May 2023. The hotel is greatly located and hidden in a charming alley of San Marco’s district. Its secret garden is a gem and a game changer for breakfast and aperitivo. The food (breakfast selection) was delicious. And the staff is incredibly nice and helpful (with a genuine family touch).
We would love to come back!! Many thanks to you all.
Anne & Ivan
We stayed at Hotel Flora for four nights. The location was wonderful, our room spacious and the bed incredibly comfortable. The courtyard garden was a great treat; a lovely place for a quiet evening drink and for relaxing in the peaceful green shade. The staff were all incredibly charming, helpful and thoughtful and made our stay very relaxed and easy. We felt genuinely welcomed and would be very happy to return.
We have stayed 3 nights at the hotel after a recommendation of another friend of mine who has also visited the hotel. We absolutely adored the style, the warm and cosy atmosphere of the hotel and our room (we had the family suite) and the staff has been without any exception very friendly (genuine friendly, not artificially) and efficient. We will definitively come again to this hotel next time that we are in Venice.
Thank you very much and look forward to visiting you again soon!
Outstanding!
The Family are warm and welcoming.
The rooms are large and comfortable.
The breakfasts are substantial and delicious.
The bar has terrific grappa.
The location is superb.
Thank you very much.
We hope to be back soon.
LOVED this hotel! The sweetest, most helpful family, beautiful rooms, gorgeous views and the best location. Couldn’t have been better for our family of 4. Will definitely be back! Thank you.
We had an absolutely LOVELY stay at Hotel Flora! The hotel is charming, but the staff really makes the visit. They were extremely helpful with small questions, restaurant recommendations, and helping to arrange a water taxi to the airport at the end of our stay. We had drinks in the garden in the evening, and loved the delicious breakfasts every day. We took a trip to one of the Murano glass factories, and recognized the glass chandeliers- this same family produced the lovely glass light fixtures throughout the hotel, it really tied our visit together. The location is wonderful, and I haven’t felt this cared for at a hotel in a long time. If ever back in Venezia, this is the only place I would stay!
I’ve been a guest of the Romanelli family and their wonderful staff since 2000, starting with the boutique B&B “Novecento.” I love the Hotel Flora so much. If I were blindfolded, just walking in I’d know immediately that I was in the Flora, such a special warmth and ambience and lovely aroma in every space. I stayed three nights while my clients chose to stay in a 5-star hotel on the Grand Canal. I spent a small fraction of what they did and slept soundly and with the gentle sounds of birds. I will return to the Flora again and again on my regular business trips to Venice.
Absolute and utter PERFECTION! My cousin and I enjoyed every moment of our stay. The hotel is completely gorgeous, lovely beds, great showers, delicious breakfast (the best croissants I’ve ever had in my life), and just an overall sense of quiet luxury. The staff was superb – words can not express how kind, warm and helpful they were. I will never stay anywhere else in Venice.
It’s been a week since we’ve been at Flora Hotel and I’m still missing everything!: the staff, so nice and warm, the breakfast, our room with such beautiful furniture, the garden (although we couldn’t enjoy it very much because it’s winter), the location so close to plaza San Marco, ponte Rialto, Gran Canal… I hope we can come back again sometime! Grazie!
We were at the Hotel “Flora” during Carnival week.
The hotel is very cosy and nicely furnished.
The staff are very friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed this time.
And of course the central location is excellent! My wife and I can only say the best.
We had a wonderful stay at HOTEL FLORA.
The Romanelli family and their team made us feel like family!
The breakfast was so lovingly prepared, the service excellent, the location charming, I especially loved the patio!
The beds are cozy with wonderful down comforters!
I’ll definitely be back. THANKS to EVERYONE!
Our family of five stayed at Hotel Flora for two amazing nights. This hotel was a highlight of our Italian holiday. The staff was above and beyond. From storing our luggage to restaurant recommendations, the staff did everything they could to make us feel like Hotel Flora was our Venetian home base for our time there. We had three rooms and each was incredibly comfortable. Two looked out over the beautiful secret garden. The garden was a wonderful place to have pre dinner drinks or nightcaps. They even had wonderfully warm blankets put out to beat the chill of the November nights! The breakfast was delicious and the service could not have been better. My only regret is that we only had two nights to experience this absolute gem of a hotel.
Fabulous, comfortable stay in a convenient location. Staff is very helpful. Comfortable bed. Breakfast quite tasty. Lovely outdoor patio for Happy Hour. Highly recommend.
My husband and I chose the Hotel Flora based on our daughter’s recommendation. The staff was truly wonderful and responsive to our every request (restaurant reservations, water taxi, etc). The location is perfect – on a quiet alley near Piazza San Marco. We will definitely recommend Hotel Flora to our friends traveling to Venice, and will certainly stay there again on our next trip to Venice.

Hotel Guests October 2 -4, 2022
Our second time staying at the Hotel Flora and it will not be our last! Everything about the hotel is just so lovely. When we dream of Venice we dream of the Hotel Flora.
We stayed at Hotel Flora one night in September 2022. The desk staff were courteous and helpful. Our room was large, comfortable and beautiful, and looked over the garden. We were refreshed in the morning after a good night’s sleep and a warm shower. Breakfast was adequate but not remarkable, some improvement could be done in this aspect.
We spent four wonderful nights at the hotel in August and we would not hesitate to book there again. Every member of the hotel staff was warm and eager to be helpful and when our airline lost our stroller, they went above and beyond to find a stroller for us to borrow for a few days (I think it belonged to the Romanelli’s, who own the hotel). Aside from the warmth of the entire staff, the hotel is exceptionally well-located, just off the heavily beaten path, making the ambiance quiet and calm, but keeping us in the heart of the San Marco district. Our room was spacious and comfortable; the garden and bar are very inviting; the breakfast was very satisfactory. We feel very lucky to have stayed there. Years ago my wife and I stayed at Novecento, their sister hotel, and loved it. This time, with our 4 year old, the Flora was perfect. Thank you so very very much. We hope to return some day!
Lovely hotel in a great, central location.
The garden really made it special – a place to escape the heat and bustle of the city and relax. We enjoyed pre-dinner cocktails in the garden.
Breakfast was generous and good quality. Staff were always obliging and cheerful.
I liked that they were trying to reduce single use plastic. My only criticism is that they washed towels everyday even when I hung them up indicating that I didn’t want them washed to be environmentally friendly.
Hotel Flora is a dream – except, it’s REAL. I’d stay here again a thousand times over. Everything about the place: the design, hospitality, food, drink, location, I loved it all.
Staying at Hotel Flora MADE our trip to Venice. From the incredible dinner recommendations and warm, generous daily greetings of the owner, Gioele Romanelli (3rd generation) , bottle of prosecco in our room with shuttered window looking out onto the ivy walled garden, to the kindness of Nicoletta at the desk, to the amazing Steffano in his second decade of chasing pigeons and serving us the incredibly delicious breakfasts in the beautiful garden every morning, We couldn’t imagine a more wonderful and warm and lovely hotel experience than we had at Hotel Flora and we would recommend it to anyone staying in Venice.
By the time we left we truly felt sad as though we were leaving a paradise filled with family members and memories we will never forget.
We had an incredible stay at Hotel Flora. Everything was perfect, the rooms, the staff, the garden, the bar, the location, all details and recommendations. You can discover the real Venice thanks to them, and at the same time you can feel at home. We will recommend you to all of our friends, and we will come back for sure.
Besides all the fabulous aspects of the hotel that others have commented on, I’d emphasize how thoughtful, helpful and kind the staff are. You feel looked after and there’s a sense of the warmth you only really get from a family-run hotel.
Hotel Flora is an absolute gem….an oasis in the midst of the crowded street of Venezia in the summer. We booked our entire family to stay, twenty of us including our eight grandchildren. The staff at the hotel were universally welcoming, kind and tolerant of the level of activity that our mere presence created. Our seven rooms were delightful, some with two extra beds for children, but each one furnished with the charming antiques, fabrics and glass of Venice. We loved our daily breakfasts in the garden and congregated again in the garden for cocktails before dinner. Eight Shirley Temples every night. The wait staff were so kind to the children. Thank you so much Hotel Flora for the best family stay in Venice. We will always return to stay with you, but you will be relieved no doubt to know we may be alone!
Grazie mille!
Deborah Wotherspoon, Richard Lister and family
In a very convenient location — everything is walkable from here in the city — and an enchanting Venetian setting, the Hotel Flora was fabulous for my family. The breakfasts in the garden were a delightful start every day. The kind staff cares deeply about its guests and truly went above and beyond in their assistance.
Thank you, wonderful Flora, for a magical and unforgettable week.
We had the absolute BEST stay at Hotel Flora! Our stay here was my favorite of our entire European trip. The hotel is very charming and clean. We loved the morning breakfasts in the garden/patio area. The staff was extremely helpful and provided assistance with dinner recommendations and reservations, as well as making sure that we made it to the train station for our departure on-time. Thank you so much for all of your help and for making our stay so enjoyable. We will be back.
I don’t believe I will ever stay anywhere else in Venice again. Hotel Flora is the perfect location, filled with the perfect staff, and has the most charming bar I have ever had the pleasure of spending an evening in.
We loved our 3-night stay at the Hotel Flora – it was the nicest place we stayed during our 3-week European trip. Staff were very friendly and helpful, rooms were comfortable and cool, garden breakfast was delightful, and location was perfect for our needs. We can’t wait to go back. We’re recommending it to everyone we know. Thank you so much!
This hotel is truly a hidden gem! Wonderful, warm, friendly staff who cannot do enough to help make your stay delightful! The breakfast was amazing, the walled garden utterly enchanting and the bedroom beautifully cool and comfortable. We have been lucky enough to travel all over the world to some of the most beautiful locations one could imagine – but the garden here at Hotel Flora, was I think, one of the most romantic settings we have ever been to. We cannot recommend Hotel Flora highly enough and thank the Romanelli family for making our wedding anniversary in Venice so very special. With love and gratitude… Sarah and Jeremy xx
The Flora Hotel is a dream place to enjoy Venice. I have spent beautiful days in this hotel. All the staff are adorable, they made me feel like family.
Breakfast is delicious and served in a romantic garden. The location is perfect, very close to Piazza San Marco. When I return to Venice, I will stay again at the Hotel Flora. I recommend it 100%. I have great memories of all the staff and this beautiful style hotel.
Thank you for 3 wonderful days. We loved it and our dogs Romeo (pug) and Koda (Volpino) loved it. A beautiful hotel and garden. Hope to stay again in 2024 with all our children and children in law. So nice people who work at hotel Flora. Thank you for it all
Thank you, the staff of Hotel Flora and the Romanelli Family, for the most wonderful stay at your hotel. We arrived at the hotel after 17 days of travel in Italy; and this was our sanctuary at the end of our amazing Italian adventure. From the moment we arrived at the dock, the staff greeted us warmly and assisted with 5 days of wonderful experiences. The location of the hotel is near all the main attractions; however, it is an oasis in the sea of tourist! The garden is so lovely for the morning breakfasts, or to enjoy while having a cocktail in the evening. Their Hot Chocolate is not to be missed (no matter the temperature outside!) Take advantage of the staff’s extensive knowledge of Venice and let them arrange adventures through Inside Venice! We enjoyed everything they set up for us! The staff is so professional and courteous, you feel as though you are visiting an “old friend”. They are also very helpful should you get lost during your visit (as we did). FYI, the application for MAPS is much more accurate than Google Maps in Venice! You can not go wrong with a stay at Hotel Flora; we hope to return one day.
Hotel Flora is a gem ! Home away from home, tranquility middle of the Venice buzz, great hospitality and sustainability mixed in perfect way. I have never disappointed in my stay, neither has anyone I have directed to this haven. Thank you so much the whole family and crew – grazie mille!
We have stayed seven times and have sent family and friends; everyone has had a wonderful experience. the staff is patient, understanding, and helpful; the location is the “best”; and we will return.
Thank you!
Our first time at the Hotel Flora, but will not be our last! We had booked to come and stay prior to Covid and had to re-book. Our vouchers were honored and the staff at Hotel Flora could not be nicer, more accommodating and professional! Nicolletta at the front was a treasure! She helped us with everything from dinner reservations to a special treat of a trip to the Island of Murano to the glass factory. A true highlight of our trip. The garden is an oasis in the middle of the hustle and bustle of Venice and where we spent our breakfasts and our pre-dinner drinks. Our room was lovely, clean and authentic! All transportation to and from our Cruise ship in Ravenna and our flights out of Marco Polo were arranged with the help of the staff at Hotel Flora. Special thanks to Diego and Giovanni for the help with our luggage. We don’t travel light!! Grazie. Until we meet again… Shirli & Charlie Smith
This was my third time to stay at the Hotel Flora. Happy memories of my last visit over 40 years ago brought me back for another five nights. The staff was wonderfully helpful in suggesting restaurants and in making arrangements for a COVID test at the Red Cross. Breakfast was delicious; the garden a lovely way to start the day. I look forward to my next trip.
We were three women traveling through Italy and our stay at the Hotel Flora was beyond our expectations. Nicoletta at the front desk was amazing answering all of our questions! This is my second time staying at the Flora and I would do it again and again. Breakfast was delicious, service was excellent, and everything was just excellent!
Third time, definitely not the last. With the warmest recommendation for the perfectly located, intimate, cozy, lovely Hotel Flora so well run by the Romanelli family and staff!
Stayed at Flora for 4 nights. Absolutely a very nice hotel. A welcoming team at arrival – and very helpful to arrange booking at really good restaurants. The breakfast was absolutely delicious and much better that you usually will fint in Italy. And it was served at your table by kind an efficient staff in the breakfast room. Thank you – difficult to leave this hotel – will be back:)
We had a lovely time at the Flora: a very warm welcome, friendly, attentive and personal staff, very helpful ideas for cour stay, excellent breakfast in the charming garden. We felt as real guests! Thank you very much! We will return.
My second stay at your wonderful hotel. Once again you exceeded expectations. The staff is so warm and helpful – at the desk, on the phone, at the bar and over breakfast – all wonderful. You make a special city even better … not easy to do. Thank you gor your gracious hospitality!
We had a splendid time at Hotel Flora. Such a beautiful hotel in a central location. The Rooms are lovely and super clean. The Team is very welcoming, helpful, and always there to help or give some tips. Very good Breakfast in a beautiful breakfast lounge with a view of the garden.
This was our second stay at Hotel Flora and it was even more charming than I had remembered. We were warmly greeted from the vaporetto transfer (via Treviso airport, and a taxi ride, all beautifully arranged by the hotel) and were shown to a comfortable, antique-filled room whose door still opens with a traditional key. The bathroom was simple, pristine and the shower so simple to use, furnished with delicious smelling full-sized Ortiga products. The breakfasts are served in beautiful china, on crisp linen, accompanied by glass pots filled with delicious conserves, fruits, muesli and yoghurt, and the hot chocolate is delicious. The hotel nods to sustainability in a impressively understated way. There is an exquisite inner courtyard, decorated with pretty white painted tables and chairs and a calmly trickling central fountain. It is a suntrap even in early March. Here you can enjoy a quiet drink and nibbles, at any time of the day, hearing nothing but peaceful birdsong. The hotel could not be better located – again, in its own, understated way – rubbing shoulders with Gucci, Prada and Balenciaga tucked away, as it is, just off the Venice equivalent of Sloan Street in London. The hotel arranged the one of the highlights of our trip, which was a visit to a glass factory on Murano. And they made excellent recommendations for restaurant dinners. Our departure was equally beautifully arranged as we were escorted back to the vaporetto for our journey home. Thank you to everyone at Hotel Flora for a memorable stay. If you are planning to stay in Venice, you could not make a better choice. We will be back! ❤️
We stayed at Novecento for Carnevale Feb. 2020 and promised we would return to Venice. We booked Hotel Flora wanting to stay in the same family because Novecento was wonderful! We had a perfect start with a very warm welcome upon arrival. We were attending a masquerade ball the evening we arrived with no time for dinner and the hotel offered to make sandwiches and snacks so we could stay in and enjoy a meal in our gowns before leaving for the ball! It was perfect! We enjoyed a delicious breakfast each morning with cappuccino and ended every evening with vino and snacks in the bar area. The hotel scheduled all of our taxis, Covid test appointments and helped with planning our departure. We felt well taken care of…like family! Can’t wait to return to Hotel Flora and would definitely recommend to family and friends.
We loved every moment of our stay in Hotel Flora. Everyone was so welcoming, frendly and extremely helpful, nothing is too much trouble. The Hotel is charming and very quiet. Will definately come back.
Sister hotel Novocento two years ago, a year’s absence due to Covid and Hotel Flora last week. Both great hotels; location, accommodation and especially the knowledge, hospitality and kindness of the staff. Thank you!
Hotel Flora is truly a gem. This was our 3rd stay and will not be our last. Wonderful staff, hospitality, perfectly located and an air of old hotel charm. Thank you!
Hotel Flora was the most perfect hotel for my family! The staff were outstanding – so helpful with local eateries & visits. Hotel Flora itself was a cosy snug right in the heart of Venice. The breakfasts were perfect – the amaretto sours were pretty good too! Would definitely stay again.
A mere “Thank you” cannot suffice…my ten day stay at the Hotel Flora during the end of September 2021 was magical. Everyone who worked at the hotel was gracious, professional and extremely friendly. Eating breakfast in the garden every morning was delightful and returning to the hotel afterward and having a drink at the bar was the perfect way to end the day. I would recommend the Hotel Flora to anyone who wishes to visit Venice. I hope in the future I will be back!
L’hôtel Flora est un établissement parfait par l’accueil chaleureux de son équipe, par le cadre charmant de son jardin intérieure dans lequel on peut prendre son petit déjeuner ou boire un verre en soirée, par son emplacement à la fois très central (5min de la place st Marc et 10min de la fenice) et très calme.
Merci pour les conseils sur les visites des îles de burano et murano, c’était une belle excursion. Et merci pour l’organisation des visites des manufactures organisées par vos soins.
Notre premier voyage à Venise a été un vrai plaisir!
Hotel Flora is a lovely boutique hotel centrally located in the heart of Venice! The Romanelli family are exceptional hosts who truly enjoy providing hospitality to their guests. The garden is a beautiful spot to have breakfast or a drink in the afternoon. The owner suggested excellent restaurants for dinner. My mother is 80 years old and their staff were incredibly helpful transporting our luggage to a water taxi. It was a wonderful stay and we wished we had booked a few more days at the hotel. Despite Covid, now is really the perfect time to visit Italy! The crowds are light and we could easily access all the sights in Venice.
What a great place to spent time in Venice! Every one is so nice and alert to the guests needs.
Plusieurs personnes parlent français en plus de l’anglais.
Les recommandations des restos sont superbes.
Vraiment très très bien.
Ready for another visit!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in early July 2021. My 18 year old daughter and I were on our first-ever trip to Italy. Hotel Flora was in a wonderful location, making it easy for us to explore Venice. It is tucked away down a street and was a wonderful respite! The garden was so lovely — we enjoyed breakfast and evening cocktails there each day. All the staff were friendly and helpful. We particularly appreciated them providing breakfast to us for our very early departure time. When we return, we would definitely want to stay here again! Thank you to all the Hotel Flora staff!
What a friendly and familiar atmoshpere at Hotel Flora! The locaton is superb, the stuff very nice and helpful and the breakfast absolutely delicious.
Flora is a perfect location to stay in Venice, we got perfect recommendations for restaurants, reservation for Guggenheim et cetera.
Thank You very much, we love venice and FLORA, we will be back, thats for sure!
Great to have been here again for 4 nights!
You get a warm welcome, the hotel is quiet, very cosy and familiar and the stuff is EXCEPTIONALLY helpful, the lovingly composed breakfast in the lovingly composed garden gives you a wonderful start for the day.
I would highly recommend the FLORA because of the great hospitality.
Once having been here, you won`t book anywhere else !!
We’ve been many times at Hotel Flora and every single time it’s like returning home. Everyone is friendly and helpful, the atmosphere is elegant and relaxed. The Romanellis know the city so well they can give tips and ideas you wouldn’t find anywhere else. And they care for the future of Venice through their commitment to the environment and a sustainable tourism. The staff is not only kind, they are helpful and warm. Venice is a marvelous place; being able to return to the Flora makes it even more so. We couldn’t recommend it warmly enough!

I have known Hotel Flora for nearly 25 years and up to now I took accommodation there for more than a dozen times. It is an exceptionally lovely and enjoyable hotel, perfectly situated with only some steps to public water transport, Piazza San Marco, Arsenale and Giardini, Academia Bridge, La Fenice and Rialto, more central is not possible. The whole hotel and its staff show a special charge and service orientation which you very rarely find over the whole world.
And now, in the COVID-19 pandemic, the hotel managed the restrictions and regulation perfectly, there was no feeling of any inconveniences. The breakfast in the garden was a real event – and also the bar service in the evening. I will come back in any case, as often as possible. Thanks to everybody!
9th and 10th of May 2021
This was our first time in the Flora and were immediately caught by the special charm. The Flora is a beautiful gem in the center of Venice. From here you can easily reach everything on foot without being aware of the general hustle and bustle in Venice. The employees are all very nice and take care of all concerns, especially the owner couple Romanelli is extremely nice and accommodating. We’ll be back for sure!
This time was our first time at Hotel Flora but it will not be our last that is for sure! After so many years in so many different places in Venice, from the top to the bottom – we have found the place for us. It really feels like Venice, the clientele seemed delightful, nothing is intrusive, The garden is a paradise ! Staff could not be more charming. The beds are superb – very important for me! Thank you Romanelli family, you really know how to run a good hotel ! Coming back for a week next year.
We have been guests at the Hotel Flora several times already. Every single time it has been a pleasure and a relaxing stay, specially in times of Covid-19. We couldn’t have felt safer in these times. And at the same time the Romanelli family and their staff continue to be as friendly, helpful and cordial as ever. Good taste is to be found everywhere, a pleasant mix of traditional Venetian and modern. The Flora became our home from home in Venice. No stay in this dream city would be complete without it!
One of the best hotels we have ever stayed at! We absolutely adored everything about it from the room, service, location, breakfast, and genuine hospitality. We will no doubt make regular trips back! Thank you to the Romanelli family!
My daughter and I spent a couple of days in Venice. The town was quiet and empty. Lovely for a visit, but sad for those who depend on tourism. The hotel felt like a home away from home. A lovely room, best placed right next to St.Marks Place, but mostly the friendly staff made it a very special time. Thank you so much! We hope soon more people will be able to enjoy this wonderful city again.
First visit to Venice and recommended to Hotel Flora by a friend. What a good choice. Charming old family run hotel with lots of character. Modern facilities without spoiling the charm. Convenient location only a short walk to St Marks Square, Very friendly and helpful staff. Lovely walled courtyard garden. Stayed for five nights (had to book an additional night as flights were changed) staff were very accommodating with this. Will certainly book the Hotel Flora again when we return to Venice and will recommend to all our friends. Thank you for a lovely visit. John & Angela Oakley
It’s not the first time i stay in Hotel Flora, however, it’s always a pleasure. Ideal location, nice staff and a breakfast in this wonderful little garden is the perfect start for a beautiful day in Venice. I and my family had a great time, as ever.
20 years wedding anniversary in the most charming nest ever…
Authenticity, discretion, quietude, attention to details…
Thanks also for all the good addresses and tips which have enlightened our stay.
Grazie mille, merci beaucoup, muito obrigado.
We had been two nights in September in Hotel Flora and we will come back for sure!!!
It is a very cosy and charming place in the middle of San Marco with excellent service and a very nice and guest friendly owner.
Best located with a small beautiful garden to enjoy breakfast or an Apperitivo!
Grazie mille to all of you making our stay most comfortable,
Peter & Yvonne
Our stay @ the Hotal Flora was wonderful!
+ nice location
+ wonderful hotel & charming rooms
+ great breakfast
+ but most important thing to mention are the warm-hearted people working there (Diego => your awesome!) and the owners (Romanelli) which are so lovely and give all their energy into this Hotel and are promoting/pushing sustainable tourism in Venice!
We went back to Venice in the summer of 2018 with our two children and we decided to stay at the Hotel Flora which we had stayed our first time to Venice back in 1989. The hotel is as charming as ever before and the terrific breakfast in this little gem of a garden did not disappoint. We enjoyed every bit of our stay in Venice and this wonderful hotel . Great location ! Venice is spectacular in every way .
Happy to hear that you and Italy are opening up after such a tragic and challenging time !!!
The hotel was great! I particularly loved the Courtyard and breakfast- very delicious and fresh. I went in February which I highly recommend because it was still quiet in Venice. I used Prontopia to get there- its like an Uber on foot that meets you at the train and shows you the way without having to navigate the canals and carry your bags alone- a total lifesaver! I definitely recommend the hotel and will stay there again!
My wife and I had a lovely two night stay at Hotel Flora. It was so convenient, priced fairly, very quaint rooms, a wonderful breakfast and a great bar for late night.
We stayed at Flora 2 times in a row. We were so satisfied the first time and we choose to stay there again. The location is so comfortable, 2 minutes from San Marco square. Breakfast is so high qualified. Everything was homemade. For sure we will stay there again at our next time in Venice!!
My wife and I loved our stay in November. Your hotel and staff are excellent. We also enjoyed the breakfast, and a ride over to Murano one morning. We hope to visit again some day.
What a wonderful stay we had in Venice at Hotel Flora. Beautiful room, so quiet and relaxing yet so close to the action in Venice. Staff was wonderful, very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delicious and the courtyard was lovely. Location was perfect: close to vaporetto stop, St Marks, shopping, and an easy walk to the Rialto and other neighborhoods. Highly recommend!
Thanks a lot for the amazing stay in my trip! I love the Flora and your wonderful staf. It was my second times in this hotel and it was so beautiful again. I wrote about the hotel in my blog because it deserves .Thanks again.
We had such a lovely stay at Hotel Flora. The garden makes for a quiet retreat in Venice. And our room was very cozy. The staff was exceptional. We would stay again if we ever have the chance to visit Venice in the future.
Historical properties are my first choice when it comes to choosing my abode away from home and Hotel Flora delivered on that point. The property oozes with character and I like the fact that it has been preserved as such. Sergio at the front desk made me so welcome upon arrival. His sense of hospitality and care for his guests are second to none. He’s attentive, caring, friendly and made me feel I could rely on him like a good friend. Kelum always remembered my preference for cappuccino in the morning with breakfast, and it was always delightful to be greeted by him; he was like my sunshine in the morning. The staff is what really makes home away from home for travelers and they all showed me their warmth and conviviality. I have warm memories indeed.

We had a wonderful stay in your delightful hotel, it is a little oasis. From your friendly and helpful staff, fabulous room and lovely breakfast, it was perfect.
Little touches like we arrived too early to check in but we were offered use of the hotels facilities, we had a drink and got some very tasty Focaccia and olives to accompany our drinks.
Thanks for everything.
E’ stato un piacevolissimo weekend!
L’hotel è splendido: un luogo familiare, confortevole e immerso nella bellezza, nel cuore di Venezia.
Un posto del cuore in cui tornare per farsi coccolare.
This was a perfectly wonderful hotel. Lovely staff, so helpful. The rooms were clean and charming. I would come back here anytime and recommend to anyone coming to Venice. Fresh figs in the morning picked from a tree in the garden! Great location and instructions to find hotel were easy.
Thanks Thanks to all of the staff. Each of you make possible an inolvidable stay. We love the hotel, charming, elegant , cozy. Love the breakfast at the patio, I miss the croissants and pastries, and cheese, everything.
This hotel is the best in Venice because : Excelente location, excellent service, excellent staff, excellent ambiance , price, rooms , everything .
I share this comment of one of the servers when I recognized him how good, friendly and profesional all the staff at this place are: ” all the staff that we work here we did not work from the stomach, we work from the heart ”
I highly recommend this beautiful place.
My daughter and I stayed at Hotel Flora for one night prior to our cruise. My first time to Venice and had absolutely no idea where we should stay. Took a chance only by how charming your hotel looked on line and the reviews. Boy did we hit the jackpot! Location. room, garden breakfast all perfect. Staff were so nice and helpful which was a blessing for two women traveling alone.
Thanks for the wonderful memory.
My friend and I stayed at Hotel Flora for 3 nights over Redemption Day in July. We loved our stay at the hotel and would highly recommend it to friends who are visiting Venice. We loved the courtyard and the breakfast. We also loved the great recommendations for dinner and tips for the weekend – I can tell the staff of the hotel love their jobs. Thank you for a lovely stay- Robyn and Zoe
Hotel Flora was the best thing about our trip to Venice. We loved the courtyard breakfast every morning and the consideration and consistent graciousness of all staff we came in contact with. We are grateful for everything you did to make our visit special.
We stayed 2 nights in a family room at the Hotel Flora in July 2019, what a wonderful hotel that helped make our trip to Venice truly memorable. The location is perfect and the staff were really helpful. Whilst Venice was incredibly hot and busy during our stay stepping into the Hotel Flora was always calming and cool. I would definitely recommend this hotel. Grazie!
We were so pleased the minute we walked into the beautiful lobby of the Hotel Flora! The European style, the friendly staff, the beautiful lobby and garden. Plus, the location to all the sightseeing was perfect. We were in Switzerland the week before and there was a heat wave and so we were hoping this hotel had good air conditioning. And, it did! Our room was small but typical for Europe in size, cleanliness, was welcoming and cool. We enjoyed a drink after our travels in the garden courtyard which was a plus, to have this available right at our hotel. The front desk staff person helped us with directions and places for dinner, booking us a reservation and a taxi for our departure. I would love to come back and will highly recommend this boutique hotel in Venice!
Leaving tomorrow Venice our first trip and one always to be remembered. Hotel flora fantastic. Kind , welcoming . Lovely room . Fantastic breakfast and cocktails late afternoon after walking around all day . Relaxed atmosphere right in centre of everything but a calm oasis . Book it . Will be coming back . Went in November best time . No queues . Thank you for such lovely stay
This summer I stayed for a second time at Hotel Flora, enjoying breakfast in the charming garden patio while our pleasant waiter whistled through the morning. Before dinner wine in their barside seating gave us a chance to chat with other travelers, this area allows for quiet reading, teens were quietly playing phone games/chatting all a nice relaxing experience. We requested a photo from our friendly bartender perched on the only two barstools, what a unique bar! Our room was huge, filled with beautiful art deco wood pieces, a wardrobe large enough for a month’s stay, dressers, a 24″ table with two chairs for breakfast in the room, tall windows overlooking the garden…I could have stayed a month! Most important is the staff who take care of this place with a family kind of feeling, I mean you feel like part of the family. They were all so helpful when I left my laptop/backpack on the water taxi to airport, Cristian, Diego and the Concierge called to have it returned to Hotel Flora and then continued to stay in communication with me, helping coordinate with UPS for shipment of my laptop over to me. The concierge expertly packed it for a safe trip. The attention and care they provided kept me assured I would eventually have it returned safely. Thanks to Cristian, Diego, the front desk and Concierge staff, a heartfelt thank you! My first stay at Hotel Flora 17 years ago was enchanting, this second stay was even more so because the ambience of the hotel’s interiors and the staff’s ease in accommodating guests provide a warm old-world feeling, but with the conveniences of wifi, tv etc to match our lives of today. So yes!…I highly recommend Hotel Flora!
Ciao-Libby
We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Flora! We found out about this hotel through our Rick Steve’s Venice guidebook and it did not disappoint! It is very quiet, comfortable, has excellent service, and provides an outstanding breakfast in a serene garden setting. Big thank you’s to Stefano, Giovanni, and the older gentleman at breakfast who’s name I cannot recall. All were helpful, professional, attentive, responsive and warm. I feel like we had a taste of the real Venice there. We would highly recommend Hotel Flora!
We saw this hotel in a recent Conde Nast Travel magazine and were interested in in booking it. Then a family member had it on their list of recommendations so the deal was sealed. We are looking forward to staying there in November.
Twenty years ago l stayed with a friend at the beautiful Hotel Flora as the result of a competition win. We had an amazing time and fell in love with Venice, the Italian people and the wonderful Hotel Flora. This resulted in us visiting over the years many different places in Italy and some of her islands. All of which have been fabulous. This year we decided to return to Venice and stay again st the Hotel Flora. We were not disappointed. The hotel has retained it’s magic. The staff are friendly and helpful; the beds are so comfortable; the breakfast is wonderful; the location is perfect and the garden is a delight. This hotel is everything you could wish for and more. I’m a few hours we will be checking out to return home to England. Thank you Hotel Flora for two wonderful stays and for inspiring us to visit other areas in Italy. You are however our first love and we hope to return again to Venice and your magical hotel.
Consiglio molto caldamente l’hotel Flora sia per la centralità, rara, della posizione, sia per la squisitezza dell’ospitalità sia infine per il gusto e la classe dell’arredamento. E’ vero, sembra di stare in un a casa, un delizioso palazzetto veneziano!
I strongly recommend Hotel Flora both for the central and rare position and for the delicacy of hospitality, as well as the special and elegant decor.
Six of us stayed at Hotel Flora for five wonderful days. The hospitality shown was outstanding. ..especially the magnificent Stefano. Everything from cooking, service and pigeon wrangling . Kelum was also a stand out . The beds were comfortable, the rooms charming, the courtyard a huge bonus and sanctuary. The breakfast was a sensational start to each day.
Easy walking to Venice’s main attractions .
Will definitely recommend this hotel to all
Just returned from a week in Venice and a lovely stay at Hotel Flora. Everything was lovely–fro the garden, to the rooms, the dining room, and most of all the staff. Breakfast was a lovely range of so many different choices…the ultimate….the baking!!! Coffee was wonderful and the steamed milk both served in silver pot were charming. China, setting, every detail for the nicest of experiences for each guest! Stefano is exceptional with his smile, service and incredible baking! Hot chocolate in the evening is not to be missed! Every effort and question was answered readily and with the care and service so evident to providing guests with the best experience and facilitation! I would recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Venice—so convenient, short walk to everything, and a delightful , charming set of accommodations!!!
I hope to return and will certainly stay here again!!
Thank you to all at Hotel Flora for a wonderful visit and stay in Venice!!!
Very very good
Very pleasant stay at this hotel could not be better located. Warm, quiet, hearty breakfast and good quality, the coffee is good. No complaints.
We loved our stay.
Certainly true, a romantic hotel in the midst of a busy city. We had the most wonderful and special Christmas one could possible imagine. The hotel is beautiful, the staff in friendly and knowledgeable. Midnight mass at San Marco, opera just a short walk from the front door, memories we shall have a cherish for years. We will come back next Christmas.
What a wonderful place to enjoy the magic of Venice.
I can not stop thinking of the hot chocolate I had at breakfast! The best ever, The hotel iis very nice with professionl people that help with all your needs. Wonderful location and a 5 minute stroll to Pizzza San Marco. wonderful outside garden! You will love it. I am returning again in May this year.
We LOVE the FLORA!
We had the best time in the Flora on our honeymoon in Venice. The rooms were spacious and sweet, the staff was very welcoming and curtious. On top of that the breakfasts were so delicious (hot tip, you must try the hot chocolate!!!), and the location was PERFECT. We highly recommend this hotel to our friends and family and are happy recommend to you. Enjoy your stay at the Flora! You won’t forget it.
Praise
Our family stayed at the Hotel Flora December 2011. We had the most wonderful stay. The facilities are elegant and charming, but the highlight of the stay was your wonderful staff. Concierge and chef made us feel so welcome and provided such brilliant service, arranging boats, late meals. No praise is too high. I will recommend you to all my associates.
My stay at Hotel Flora
I would like to thank you for your hospitality. I enjoyed my stay at Hotel Flora on July 14, 2012. Thank all your staff as everybody was very nice and professional. I loved the house white wine. Please let me know which one is served there as I meant to write down the name of the wine and the grape and I forgot. Thank you again for your amenities and your hospitality. Very nice hotel that I will recommend. Alicia Forte
8 times i stay in the lovely nice HOTEL FLORA, perfect service, very friendly staff, good breakfast, all was super !!! Very good location near Piazza San Marco,

My second time staying at Hotel Flora, and I’ll absolutely be returning. The location is ideal, and what stands out even more is the service. Everyone who works there is friendly and helpful, from the front desk to the breakfast room. A special shout out to Marco who provided us with detailed information to navigate the vaporetto stop and it’s schedule.
We were just coming back to Venice from an 8 day bicycle tour in the Dolomites, and we were very tired after that. Hotel Flora was a welcoming and comfortable place for us to recover and rest, and to enjoy our time in Venice. This was our first trip to the city, and we were very pleased with hotel choice and location. All of the staff was friendly and helpful. We want to give special praise to the evening desk colleague, Marco, who gave us some excellent restaurants to try, and suggestions for things to see. Grazie!
Our stay in July 22 -25 was the second time in Hotel Flora and once again it was perfect.
The ideal location for visiting Venice , a very friendly staff a beautiful house , a romantic garden.
Whenever we visit Venice again: ONLY Hotel Flora
Beate and Hans-Joachum Zabler
Only positive things to say about Hotel Flora! What an absolute gem. The hotel is beautiful, the ambience sweet, and the personnel are incredible and so helpful. We received so much help finding the best restaurants in the city and one of the women in the reception spent hours on helping us find an alternative way to Croatia when our ferry was cancelled from Venice. Can’t recommend enough!
Kind regards
Wendela & John
We had such a beautiful stay at Hotel Flora. The location was fantastic, and the service was exceptional. Marco was extremely helpful and served as a great tour guide, spending time helping us discover the best attractions and how to get around. It was truly a pleasure.
We enjoyed our stay in June 2024; the hotel is an oasis of calm and greenery yet so close to the heart of Venice. The team were all unfailingly helpful and patient, the breakfast delicious, our room elegant and quiet. We look forward to staying again.
Lovely & very comfortable hotel, very convenient location, and warm friendly staff. Breakfast and cocktails in the garden were charming. Very happy with my stay.
We stayed at Hotel Flora for 2 nights. It was conveniently located near San Marco Plaza. The hotel was beautiful and the front desk service was amazing. I loved the mornings eating breakfast in the beautiful patio. I would definitely visit again.
Hotel Flora was a charming, quiet oasis in the centre of Venice.
The staff were very friendly and helpful.
Grazie!
We absolutely cherished our time at Hotel Flora. The location, the lovely house, the peaceful courtyard, and above all, the PEOPLE, and the kindness they exude at every turn. This may have been the most pleasant hotel stay I have ever experienced. Thank you Hotel Flora, we love you!
Our stay, as always, was a great delight
The charming , accommodating staff always makes our visit special
The hotel, gardens, rooms and its services constantly comfort us.
Hotel Flora is very special
What a find, we have stayed in Novacento a few times and due to mobility issues, we decided to book Hotel Flora this trip. Both hotels have a warm family feel, taking care of their guests on an individual personal basis. You are a person, not a number, which you often experience at the larger hotels. The staff were all very chatty, helpful and accommodating. Location wise, it cannot get better, being at the heart of Venice. We loved the bar/breakfast room, outside patio area and both our rooms. The hotel is very clean and tidy. Give it a try, you will not be disappointed.
My friend and I stayed five nights at Hotel Flora. We love this hotel! A peaceful haven off of a busy and beautiful street, so close to everything. The room was lovely, the garden was charming. Staff were kind and helpful, the food and drink were delicious. Highly recommended!
Jennifer Bennett, USA
A magical place with elegance, beauty and finesse.
My home in Venice…
Loved Hotel Flora. A perfect, quiet oasis right in the heart of Venice City. What we enjoyed most was our aperitivi in the garden before dinner, what a treat! The staff at Hotel Flora are friendly and genuine and made our stay a real pleasure. Grazie a tutti!
Our first trip to Venice. Lovely hotel near the Piazza San Marco and the high end shopping area in Venice. Restaurants abound within a short walk. We had a room which overlooked the garden area, and pretty much as picture perfect as you’d imagine. Staff were very helpful, and breakfast was a delight in the charming sitting area.
The Hotel Flora is a wonderful Hotel in the heart of Venice. The staff were extremely helpful, kind and attentive to all our needs during our stay. Not only did they provide advice about things to do in Venice but they even helped with securing last minute restaurant reservations. The rooms were spacious and clean. The morning breakfast had everything you needed to start your day off on the right foot. The bar staff made great drinks and the lounge area was cozy and classy. Overall staying at the Hotel Flora you felt like family. I would highly recommend staying here if you plan to visit Venice.
After a long day of exploring magical Venice, it was such a pleasure and comfort to return to that quiet, friendly oasis called Hotel Flora. The service is top notch. Wonderful people! Great breakfast. Perfect location. The garden looked so inviting, however since it rained most of the time I was there, I was unable to enjoy it. Which is why I must return! Thank you Hotel Flora and the wonderful staff for making my stay in Venice so enjoyable.
It is not the first time at Hotel Flora, Kristina and I have been guests several times over the years and it doesn’t stop surprising us the atmosphere which is kind of magic, the garden, the breakfast room…you simply would not want to go out. So we keep coming! This last time we have particularly appreciated improvements in the rooms, impeccable the one we have got and everyone is always so friendly, relaxed and very professional. What else, can’t wait to be back! Giacomo, Kristina
We loved our stay at Hotel Flora – from the moment we arrived we were welcomed into such a gorgeous space by such friendly hosts. Our room was lovely, breakfast delicious & we enjoyed cocktails in the bar at night. Fabulous location & the Inside Venice guide provided was a great resource for exploring the city. We’ll be back!
A magical oasis in a wonderful city … I can’t imagine a better place to stay while in Venice. Kind, attentive staff. Lovely, historic building. Perfect location … it’s perfecto!
A wonderful, enchanting, quiet and dreamy place in the middle of the hustle and bustle of Venice. Tradition meets style, commitment meets class. Probably one of the most beautiful places to start and end your day in Venice. The friendliness and warmth of the host family and their staff is unsurpassable…
Thank you for a Venetian dream…
I recently had the pleasure of staying at this charming hotel in the heart of Venice for my special birthday weekend with my family. From the moment we arrived, we were enchanted by the romantic atmosphere and the beautiful garden that welcomed us.
The staff at the hotel were not only friendly, but also incredibly pleasant, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere during our stay. Their hospitality made us feel right at home.
One of the highlights of our stay was the delicious Italian breakfast served in a beautiful breakfast room that felt like a step back in time.
All in all, our stay at this hotel was nothing short of magical. From the romantic setting to the friendly staff and delicious breakfast, every aspect of our experience was memorable and wonderful. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone who wants a special and unforgettable stay in Venice.
We had a wonderful stay at the unique, beautiful, comfortable and convenient Hotel Flora! Our family of 4 would absolutely stay at this hotel again on future visits. Extremely helpful and pleasant staff made for a very enjoyable stay.
Thank you for your warm welcome and excellent service. The room was very comfortable and quiet and we really enjoyed the breakfast and evening drinks at the bar.
Thank you so much for all you did for our stay in Venice. We came to Venice without plans to just be able to explore. While we did that, you all were so helpful in filling in the gaps in what we needed. The rooms was great, the bed was great. We had a nice evening in the bar one night. We enjoyed the tour to see the glass work. If all hotels were as professional, attentive, and comfortable as yours, it would be a great vacation every time. I would recommend your hotel to anyone
We had a wonderful time at this charming hotel. The personnel who work there are fabulous and helpful, and multilingual. Leonora at the check in desk was particularly helpful and friendly. Kelloum in the bar was also very nice and outgoing. The breakfast was great and we could relax each evening with a drink in a quiet atmosphere. Just an excellent place to stay
We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Flora – the staff were so friendly and helpful, the breakfast was lovely, and the cocktails in the bar were just what we needed after a day of walking around beautiful Venice. It rained the whole time we were there (it was January) but we were never disappointed and have only wonderful memories of our time there. The location was ideal – very central but still quiet, the rooms were cosy and elegant, the Christmas lights were still up which gave a magical feel to everything and we couldn’t praise it highly enough.
We had the most wonderful time at the hotel Flora! Even from entering the property you have a feeling of returning to a friends house! Everyone was extremely helpful and joyful! Hotel Flora is as beautiful and charming as Venice and we can’t wait to come back! Thank you for the unforgettable experience!
I only have wonderful things to say about this hotel. The staff was accommodating and lovely. Breakfast was delicious. Morning staff was gracious and helpful. I would recommend this hotel
We stayed at hotel Flora for 4 nights and I can only recommend this hotel. All the staff was very friendly and helpful, the location is amazing and the rooms are very calm.
This hotel is lovely! The garden full of flowers and such truly brings a charm that one cannot describe with words. 10/10 would come again.
I have been visiting the Hotel Flora for over 25 years and it is always a super experience. Excellent service, lovely atmosphere, relaxed and informal, beautiful surroundings, especially the secluded garden which is a delight to relax in, even in winter. Central to everywhere I need to be as well. Everyone is so welcoming and with great attention to detail. After a gap with the pandemic years, it is such a pleasure to return to these lovely, familiar surroundings. Thank you to the Romanelli family and to your friendly staff.

What a wonderful and welcoming place to stay. A exemplary team looking after all our needs.
You made our wedding anniversary very special indeed.
5 stars all the way!!
PS: excellent cocktails!!!
Hotel Flora is a true gem in Venice. Imagine a Merchant & Ivory film, be it Howards End or A Room With A View, and you are right in the middle of the irresistible charm of Hotel Flora. Impeccable rooms, a skillful staff, the Romanelli family who assist you in getting the choicest and most authentic restaurants in Venice, the most sought after tickets for La Fenice or operas in palazzi you have never dreamed of. Hotel Flora comes with a price, but you don’t need to be old money to afford a stay at Hotel Flora. Just choose the right time in Venice and enjoy staying at the Avenue Montaigne of Venice (Le Figaro for Calle Larga XXII Marzio), near the churches of Santa Maria della Giglio and San Moisè and the Piazza San Marco.
With kind regards,

We had organised a family weekend in Venice, particularly to celebrate our daughter’s 30th birthday. Hotel Flora was highly recommended by friends, and we all loved our stay. Small, comfortable, delightfully decorated, with delicious breakfast and a very inviting bar for pre dinner drinks. The hotel is also perfectly situated for exploring the city. The staff are absolutely lovely ; endlessly helpful and kind and interested in our plans. It felt like coming home every time we walked through the door.
We had a wonderful time in fall 2023 eleven days long. Hotelflora in the core center of Venice was an island of silence, beautyness serviced by a wonderful friendly team. Honestly everything is perfect, but first of all the garden, the breakfast, the bar managed all the time by an extraordinary team. To put it in one sentence: It was every day a feeling like coming home.
Many thanks!!
My second stay in Hotel, Flora, and having picked Venice for our 30th wedding anniversary, we were delighted with the hotel. We loved it, of course: location, staff, breakfast, tranquility.
the offered linked option of bespoke limo water taxi to hotel is poor value and includes a car taxi transfer and just 10 minutes on the canals; a shared vaperetto direct from airport is much cheaper and is all “on the water.”
I have stayed here for the second time now – it is such a wonderful place, doesn’t feel like a Hotel at all, very personal and incredibly beautiful. The courtyard where you could have breakfast weather permitting is stunning. The tips you get from Gioele and his team are the best. I’ll be back!!
We stayed four nights and had a wonderful time! HOTEL FLORA is a cosy and welcoming place in the heart of Venice. The ambience is typical and charming, the staff is more then friendly and very helpful. We hope to be back soon…
I was traveling solo in Venice and had a great stay at the Hotel Flora for 2 nights. The location is perfect as a base for exploring the city. The staff is really wonderful and helpful. I had an issue with my luggage lock and they graciously went out of their way to help me out – I appreciated this so much especially as I was alone! Everyone is very professional and friendly and can help out with any recommendations or booking water taxis, etc. The garden is absolutely beautiful and relaxing. I really enjoyed breakfast here as well as relaxing for a coffee or glass of wine. The room was also very clean and had everything I needed. Would definitely return next time I’m in Venice!
Excellent all round. Rooms pleasant and well furnished. Breakfast is simple but high quality and efficiently provided. Staff are very helpful.
What a great experience staying at Hotel Flora. The Romanelli family went out of their way to make us feel welcome.
Location, room and service was absolutely exceptional.
They were fantastic hosts sitting down with us with map best places to go then walking us to water taxi to get us to Tronchetto to catch our bus to our cruise.
Truly remarkable service.
Definitely recommend this fantastic quaint hotel.
Thanks again for making our stay in Venice so special!
I have tried to write a review but the website doesn’t allow me to post . Everything about Hotel flies is perfection .
o the Entire Romanelli family and staff of Hotel Flora,
Thank you for making our stay truly wonderful. My husband and I were welcomed with open arms. You were kind to us and went out of your way to make us feel comfortable in your hotel and not only that, but helped us to get to know Venice. Thank you for sitting with us and showing us the Venice map,, suggesting eateries and activities, making reservations for us at different places and guiding us. Hotel Flora is very clean with lovely charming rooms, a beautiful garden in the center and great amenities. Breakfast was delicious. The air conditioning and shower were also great. You were our favorite place to stay on our 2 -week trip throughout Italy. Thank you!
I think I like staying at the hotel more than I like Venice. The staff is wonderful, the atmosphere is welcoming, calming and relaxing–an oasis. I have stayed here 3 or 4 times and each time has been a pleasure. The best breakfast I’ve had in any hotel and a prime location. But it was the staff which made this particular stay so memorable–everyone seems to have a vested interest in providing the best for the guests. I will definitely return and recommend to friends.
We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Flora in Venice which was part of our 2 week family trip to Italy in August. Was a great way to start our trip. Had a very friendly welcome and were given nice maps of the area. Everyone works seemed happy particularly the waitstaff at restaurant. Rooms were accommodating and clean. Breakfast was delicious and in a lovely garden. The location is superb and near many sites and shopping. Very lovely stay. Thank you.
What a wonderful and unexpected surprise!
The hospitality and the desire to truly help your guest was top notch!
Breakfast in the courtyard was such a treat.
I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone.
I had the most fabulous stay at Hotel Flora in July 2023. This is the first time I’ve returned to the hotel and indeed Venice in 17 years and I have to say I was not disappointed. Everything was truly fabulous, and I instantly felt all my stresses leave me and I had a wonderful relaxing 3 days. The staff are so friendly, helpful, and clearly have a first-class team working behind the scenes. I’m totally in love with this hotel and especially the garden, a perfect retreat to escape from the hustle and bustle of life. I look forward to returning very soon. Thank you, Hotel Flora.
Hotel Flora is a lovely hotel with beautiful garden and bar tucked into an alleyway not far from the Piazza San Marco. This was the first visit to Venice by me and my husband and we arrived the day before the Festa del Redentore celebration. We very much wanted to have dinner during the Festa where we could see the fireworks, and the front desk was able to get us a reservation at a wonderful restaurant on the water with the very best views of the amazing fireworks! Thank you for making this experience possible. It was the highlight of our trip and we will never forget it.
We loved this hotel! We did not want something on the major canals, but near them, and Hotel Flora was in the right location for us. Tucked away in a little alley of its own, right off of a street full of high-end designer shops, we felt very safe. Pierangela and Nicoletta were so welcoming! They helped us with everything and anything we needed, including reserving an earlier breakfast for our quick day trip to Padua., and escorting us to our transfers by private taxi. Our room was a nice size for a European hotel, and our bed was very comfortable (#44). The pretty view of Venetian rooftops from our window was magical. Although the bathroom was small, it was clean and good enough for us to be happy. The breakfast was delightful in the quaint courtyard covered with beautiful plants. We had perfect weather, so we enjoyed eating outside each morning. The bar area has an old world charm and serves great drinks and snacks -again, such great service. We truly loved it and would definitely stay there again.
Thank you for a wonderful time in the marvelous Hotel Flora. All the staff was super friendly and helpful in fulfilling our wishes. The hints for trips that suit our preferences were perfect, so we had a outstanding time in beautiful Venice!!
The hotel with the very nice rooms, the magical garden and staff that loves what they do is really special and we will definitely come back!
The true Venetian experience. Genuine interest in your experience of the hotel and Venice. Restaurant recommendations that are not just because of some relationship but because they are known to be sound, authentic places to eat.
Wonderful, knowledgeable staff who are proud of their city and it’s own special dialect.
Alla prossima.
Dear Diego,
Many thanks to you, the Romanelli Family, and all your staff at the Hotel Flora. We were so happy during our stay with you, and we look forward to returning some day soon.
Your hotel and your magical courtyard are absolutely beautiful, and your amazing staff are super welcoming and so helpful with every detail. We are especially grateful to your breakfast staff for providing allergy safe dairy free foods for our daughter, and to the lovely concierge who found us a last minute water taxi to the train station – and then walked us through all the passages to the canal where the boat was waiting.
Your kindness and service far exceeded anything we could have hoped for during our time in Venice! Many thanks again.
Kristen Knoebber
Hotel Flora is a fantastic hotel with very friendly, hospitable, and helpful staff that I would recommend to anyone traveling to Venice!
My wife and I stayed at Hotel Flora in May 2023 for two nights and we will certainly be back as soon as possible. Everyone at the hotel was extremely friendly, helpful, and kind and the hotel itself was perfect. We had arrived late due to travel issues and the staff were very accommodating and even had breakfast brought to our room so that we could rest after our long travel day and showed a genuine interest in our comfort which was very kind. The staff are terrific ambassadors of Venice, are extremely knowledgeable about the city, and were very helpful when giving us suggestions and advice about what to do and where to visit during our time in that amazing city.
We will certainly be back as soon as we can! Thank you Hotel Flora, you are the best!
This was our first time at Hotel Flora and it will not be our last! The staff is so friendly – Ciao to Stephano! I had a peaceful time in the garden enjoying a drink and reading – what a perfect respite during a fun but busy vacation. Everything was clean, the hotel was easy to find and the location is perfect. And – I LOVE that you are so committed to running a plastic free hotel. Grazie mille to all!
This was our 3rd time at the Hotel Flora. Each time, the staff have been so helpful and friendly, it has made our stay in Venice a real pleasurable experience. Great location. Unfortunately for us, this time the weather did not permit us to spend much time in the garden, but hopefully next time we will be able to relax outside more. Until then, good health and happiness to everyone at the Hotel Flora!
If I had only one word for Hotel Flora, it would be PERFECTION. Everything was wonderful, from the welcoming and helpful staff, to the lovely comfortable room, to the relaxing garden, delicious breakfast, and great location. When I return to Venice, this is where I will stay. Many thanks to all on the staff for providing everything we needed to enjoy our time in Venice. Grazie Mille!
Amazing stay in Venice at Hotel Flora!
We stayed 3 nights in May 2023. The hotel is greatly located and hidden in a charming alley of San Marco’s district. Its secret garden is a gem and a game changer for breakfast and aperitivo. The food (breakfast selection) was delicious. And the staff is incredibly nice and helpful (with a genuine family touch).
We would love to come back!! Many thanks to you all.
Anne & Ivan
We stayed at Hotel Flora for four nights. The location was wonderful, our room spacious and the bed incredibly comfortable. The courtyard garden was a great treat; a lovely place for a quiet evening drink and for relaxing in the peaceful green shade. The staff were all incredibly charming, helpful and thoughtful and made our stay very relaxed and easy. We felt genuinely welcomed and would be very happy to return.
We have stayed 3 nights at the hotel after a recommendation of another friend of mine who has also visited the hotel. We absolutely adored the style, the warm and cosy atmosphere of the hotel and our room (we had the family suite) and the staff has been without any exception very friendly (genuine friendly, not artificially) and efficient. We will definitively come again to this hotel next time that we are in Venice.
Thank you very much and look forward to visiting you again soon!
Outstanding!
The Family are warm and welcoming.
The rooms are large and comfortable.
The breakfasts are substantial and delicious.
The bar has terrific grappa.
The location is superb.
Thank you very much.
We hope to be back soon.
LOVED this hotel! The sweetest, most helpful family, beautiful rooms, gorgeous views and the best location. Couldn’t have been better for our family of 4. Will definitely be back! Thank you.
We had an absolutely LOVELY stay at Hotel Flora! The hotel is charming, but the staff really makes the visit. They were extremely helpful with small questions, restaurant recommendations, and helping to arrange a water taxi to the airport at the end of our stay. We had drinks in the garden in the evening, and loved the delicious breakfasts every day. We took a trip to one of the Murano glass factories, and recognized the glass chandeliers- this same family produced the lovely glass light fixtures throughout the hotel, it really tied our visit together. The location is wonderful, and I haven’t felt this cared for at a hotel in a long time. If ever back in Venezia, this is the only place I would stay!
We had a very nice stay at Hotel Flora.
Very nice and helpful staff, wonderful breakfast and a wonderful location.
Thank you
I’ve been a guest of the Romanelli family and their wonderful staff since 2000, starting with the boutique B&B “Novecento.” I love the Hotel Flora so much. If I were blindfolded, just walking in I’d know immediately that I was in the Flora, such a special warmth and ambience and lovely aroma in every space. I stayed three nights while my clients chose to stay in a 5-star hotel on the Grand Canal. I spent a small fraction of what they did and slept soundly and with the gentle sounds of birds. I will return to the Flora again and again on my regular business trips to Venice.
Absolute and utter PERFECTION! My cousin and I enjoyed every moment of our stay. The hotel is completely gorgeous, lovely beds, great showers, delicious breakfast (the best croissants I’ve ever had in my life), and just an overall sense of quiet luxury. The staff was superb – words can not express how kind, warm and helpful they were. I will never stay anywhere else in Venice.
It’s been a week since we’ve been at Flora Hotel and I’m still missing everything!: the staff, so nice and warm, the breakfast, our room with such beautiful furniture, the garden (although we couldn’t enjoy it very much because it’s winter), the location so close to plaza San Marco, ponte Rialto, Gran Canal… I hope we can come back again sometime! Grazie!
We were at the Hotel “Flora” during Carnival week.
The hotel is very cosy and nicely furnished.
The staff are very friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed this time.
And of course the central location is excellent! My wife and I can only say the best.
We had a wonderful stay at HOTEL FLORA.
The Romanelli family and their team made us feel like family!
The breakfast was so lovingly prepared, the service excellent, the location charming, I especially loved the patio!
The beds are cozy with wonderful down comforters!
I’ll definitely be back. THANKS to EVERYONE!
Our family of five stayed at Hotel Flora for two amazing nights. This hotel was a highlight of our Italian holiday. The staff was above and beyond. From storing our luggage to restaurant recommendations, the staff did everything they could to make us feel like Hotel Flora was our Venetian home base for our time there. We had three rooms and each was incredibly comfortable. Two looked out over the beautiful secret garden. The garden was a wonderful place to have pre dinner drinks or nightcaps. They even had wonderfully warm blankets put out to beat the chill of the November nights! The breakfast was delicious and the service could not have been better. My only regret is that we only had two nights to experience this absolute gem of a hotel.
We loved everything about the Hotel Flora – many thanks also for the wonderful restaurant recommendations. See you again soon!
Loved everything about Hotel Flora ! The staff, the ambience, the rooms, the courtyard and the location.
We would definitely stay there again.
Shane
Fabulous, comfortable stay in a convenient location. Staff is very helpful. Comfortable bed. Breakfast quite tasty. Lovely outdoor patio for Happy Hour. Highly recommend.
My husband and I chose the Hotel Flora based on our daughter’s recommendation. The staff was truly wonderful and responsive to our every request (restaurant reservations, water taxi, etc). The location is perfect – on a quiet alley near Piazza San Marco. We will definitely recommend Hotel Flora to our friends traveling to Venice, and will certainly stay there again on our next trip to Venice.

Hotel Guests October 2 -4, 2022
Our second time staying at the Hotel Flora and it will not be our last! Everything about the hotel is just so lovely. When we dream of Venice we dream of the Hotel Flora.
We stayed at Hotel Flora one night in September 2022. The desk staff were courteous and helpful. Our room was large, comfortable and beautiful, and looked over the garden. We were refreshed in the morning after a good night’s sleep and a warm shower. Breakfast was adequate but not remarkable, some improvement could be done in this aspect.
We spent four wonderful nights at the hotel in August and we would not hesitate to book there again. Every member of the hotel staff was warm and eager to be helpful and when our airline lost our stroller, they went above and beyond to find a stroller for us to borrow for a few days (I think it belonged to the Romanelli’s, who own the hotel). Aside from the warmth of the entire staff, the hotel is exceptionally well-located, just off the heavily beaten path, making the ambiance quiet and calm, but keeping us in the heart of the San Marco district. Our room was spacious and comfortable; the garden and bar are very inviting; the breakfast was very satisfactory. We feel very lucky to have stayed there. Years ago my wife and I stayed at Novecento, their sister hotel, and loved it. This time, with our 4 year old, the Flora was perfect. Thank you so very very much. We hope to return some day!
Lovely hotel in a great, central location.
The garden really made it special – a place to escape the heat and bustle of the city and relax. We enjoyed pre-dinner cocktails in the garden.
Breakfast was generous and good quality. Staff were always obliging and cheerful.
I liked that they were trying to reduce single use plastic. My only criticism is that they washed towels everyday even when I hung them up indicating that I didn’t want them washed to be environmentally friendly.
Hotel Flora is a dream – except, it’s REAL. I’d stay here again a thousand times over. Everything about the place: the design, hospitality, food, drink, location, I loved it all.
Staying at Hotel Flora MADE our trip to Venice. From the incredible dinner recommendations and warm, generous daily greetings of the owner, Gioele Romanelli (3rd generation) , bottle of prosecco in our room with shuttered window looking out onto the ivy walled garden, to the kindness of Nicoletta at the desk, to the amazing Steffano in his second decade of chasing pigeons and serving us the incredibly delicious breakfasts in the beautiful garden every morning, We couldn’t imagine a more wonderful and warm and lovely hotel experience than we had at Hotel Flora and we would recommend it to anyone staying in Venice.
By the time we left we truly felt sad as though we were leaving a paradise filled with family members and memories we will never forget.
We had an incredible stay at Hotel Flora. Everything was perfect, the rooms, the staff, the garden, the bar, the location, all details and recommendations. You can discover the real Venice thanks to them, and at the same time you can feel at home. We will recommend you to all of our friends, and we will come back for sure.
Gràcies!
Besides all the fabulous aspects of the hotel that others have commented on, I’d emphasize how thoughtful, helpful and kind the staff are. You feel looked after and there’s a sense of the warmth you only really get from a family-run hotel.
Hotel Flora is an absolute gem….an oasis in the midst of the crowded street of Venezia in the summer. We booked our entire family to stay, twenty of us including our eight grandchildren. The staff at the hotel were universally welcoming, kind and tolerant of the level of activity that our mere presence created. Our seven rooms were delightful, some with two extra beds for children, but each one furnished with the charming antiques, fabrics and glass of Venice. We loved our daily breakfasts in the garden and congregated again in the garden for cocktails before dinner. Eight Shirley Temples every night. The wait staff were so kind to the children. Thank you so much Hotel Flora for the best family stay in Venice. We will always return to stay with you, but you will be relieved no doubt to know we may be alone!
Grazie mille!
Deborah Wotherspoon, Richard Lister and family
In a very convenient location — everything is walkable from here in the city — and an enchanting Venetian setting, the Hotel Flora was fabulous for my family. The breakfasts in the garden were a delightful start every day. The kind staff cares deeply about its guests and truly went above and beyond in their assistance.
Thank you, wonderful Flora, for a magical and unforgettable week.
We had the absolute BEST stay at Hotel Flora! Our stay here was my favorite of our entire European trip. The hotel is very charming and clean. We loved the morning breakfasts in the garden/patio area. The staff was extremely helpful and provided assistance with dinner recommendations and reservations, as well as making sure that we made it to the train station for our departure on-time. Thank you so much for all of your help and for making our stay so enjoyable. We will be back.
I don’t believe I will ever stay anywhere else in Venice again. Hotel Flora is the perfect location, filled with the perfect staff, and has the most charming bar I have ever had the pleasure of spending an evening in.
We loved our 3-night stay at the Hotel Flora – it was the nicest place we stayed during our 3-week European trip. Staff were very friendly and helpful, rooms were comfortable and cool, garden breakfast was delightful, and location was perfect for our needs. We can’t wait to go back. We’re recommending it to everyone we know. Thank you so much!
This hotel is truly a hidden gem! Wonderful, warm, friendly staff who cannot do enough to help make your stay delightful! The breakfast was amazing, the walled garden utterly enchanting and the bedroom beautifully cool and comfortable. We have been lucky enough to travel all over the world to some of the most beautiful locations one could imagine – but the garden here at Hotel Flora, was I think, one of the most romantic settings we have ever been to. We cannot recommend Hotel Flora highly enough and thank the Romanelli family for making our wedding anniversary in Venice so very special. With love and gratitude… Sarah and Jeremy xx
The Flora Hotel is a dream place to enjoy Venice. I have spent beautiful days in this hotel. All the staff are adorable, they made me feel like family.
Breakfast is delicious and served in a romantic garden. The location is perfect, very close to Piazza San Marco. When I return to Venice, I will stay again at the Hotel Flora. I recommend it 100%. I have great memories of all the staff and this beautiful style hotel.
Thank you for 3 wonderful days. We loved it and our dogs Romeo (pug) and Koda (Volpino) loved it. A beautiful hotel and garden. Hope to stay again in 2024 with all our children and children in law. So nice people who work at hotel Flora. Thank you for it all
Thank you, the staff of Hotel Flora and the Romanelli Family, for the most wonderful stay at your hotel. We arrived at the hotel after 17 days of travel in Italy; and this was our sanctuary at the end of our amazing Italian adventure. From the moment we arrived at the dock, the staff greeted us warmly and assisted with 5 days of wonderful experiences. The location of the hotel is near all the main attractions; however, it is an oasis in the sea of tourist! The garden is so lovely for the morning breakfasts, or to enjoy while having a cocktail in the evening. Their Hot Chocolate is not to be missed (no matter the temperature outside!) Take advantage of the staff’s extensive knowledge of Venice and let them arrange adventures through Inside Venice! We enjoyed everything they set up for us! The staff is so professional and courteous, you feel as though you are visiting an “old friend”. They are also very helpful should you get lost during your visit (as we did). FYI, the application for MAPS is much more accurate than Google Maps in Venice! You can not go wrong with a stay at Hotel Flora; we hope to return one day.
Hotel Flora is a gem ! Home away from home, tranquility middle of the Venice buzz, great hospitality and sustainability mixed in perfect way. I have never disappointed in my stay, neither has anyone I have directed to this haven. Thank you so much the whole family and crew – grazie mille!
We have stayed seven times and have sent family and friends; everyone has had a wonderful experience. the staff is patient, understanding, and helpful; the location is the “best”; and we will return.
Thank you!
Our first time at the Hotel Flora, but will not be our last! We had booked to come and stay prior to Covid and had to re-book. Our vouchers were honored and the staff at Hotel Flora could not be nicer, more accommodating and professional! Nicolletta at the front was a treasure! She helped us with everything from dinner reservations to a special treat of a trip to the Island of Murano to the glass factory. A true highlight of our trip. The garden is an oasis in the middle of the hustle and bustle of Venice and where we spent our breakfasts and our pre-dinner drinks. Our room was lovely, clean and authentic! All transportation to and from our Cruise ship in Ravenna and our flights out of Marco Polo were arranged with the help of the staff at Hotel Flora. Special thanks to Diego and Giovanni for the help with our luggage. We don’t travel light!! Grazie. Until we meet again… Shirli & Charlie Smith
This was my third time to stay at the Hotel Flora. Happy memories of my last visit over 40 years ago brought me back for another five nights. The staff was wonderfully helpful in suggesting restaurants and in making arrangements for a COVID test at the Red Cross. Breakfast was delicious; the garden a lovely way to start the day. I look forward to my next trip.
We were three women traveling through Italy and our stay at the Hotel Flora was beyond our expectations. Nicoletta at the front desk was amazing answering all of our questions! This is my second time staying at the Flora and I would do it again and again. Breakfast was delicious, service was excellent, and everything was just excellent!
Love everything about this Hotel, The Garden, The location, The Staff was wonderful. Felt very much at home.
Third time, definitely not the last. With the warmest recommendation for the perfectly located, intimate, cozy, lovely Hotel Flora so well run by the Romanelli family and staff!
Absolutely delightful
A true final in Venice.
Stayed at Flora for 4 nights. Absolutely a very nice hotel. A welcoming team at arrival – and very helpful to arrange booking at really good restaurants. The breakfast was absolutely delicious and much better that you usually will fint in Italy. And it was served at your table by kind an efficient staff in the breakfast room. Thank you – difficult to leave this hotel – will be back:)
We had a lovely time at the Flora: a very warm welcome, friendly, attentive and personal staff, very helpful ideas for cour stay, excellent breakfast in the charming garden. We felt as real guests! Thank you very much! We will return.
My second stay at your wonderful hotel. Once again you exceeded expectations. The staff is so warm and helpful – at the desk, on the phone, at the bar and over breakfast – all wonderful. You make a special city even better … not easy to do. Thank you gor your gracious hospitality!
We had a splendid time at Hotel Flora. Such a beautiful hotel in a central location. The Rooms are lovely and super clean. The Team is very welcoming, helpful, and always there to help or give some tips. Very good Breakfast in a beautiful breakfast lounge with a view of the garden.
This was our second stay at Hotel Flora and it was even more charming than I had remembered. We were warmly greeted from the vaporetto transfer (via Treviso airport, and a taxi ride, all beautifully arranged by the hotel) and were shown to a comfortable, antique-filled room whose door still opens with a traditional key. The bathroom was simple, pristine and the shower so simple to use, furnished with delicious smelling full-sized Ortiga products. The breakfasts are served in beautiful china, on crisp linen, accompanied by glass pots filled with delicious conserves, fruits, muesli and yoghurt, and the hot chocolate is delicious. The hotel nods to sustainability in a impressively understated way. There is an exquisite inner courtyard, decorated with pretty white painted tables and chairs and a calmly trickling central fountain. It is a suntrap even in early March. Here you can enjoy a quiet drink and nibbles, at any time of the day, hearing nothing but peaceful birdsong. The hotel could not be better located – again, in its own, understated way – rubbing shoulders with Gucci, Prada and Balenciaga tucked away, as it is, just off the Venice equivalent of Sloan Street in London. The hotel arranged the one of the highlights of our trip, which was a visit to a glass factory on Murano. And they made excellent recommendations for restaurant dinners. Our departure was equally beautifully arranged as we were escorted back to the vaporetto for our journey home. Thank you to everyone at Hotel Flora for a memorable stay. If you are planning to stay in Venice, you could not make a better choice. We will be back! ❤️
We stayed at Novecento for Carnevale Feb. 2020 and promised we would return to Venice. We booked Hotel Flora wanting to stay in the same family because Novecento was wonderful! We had a perfect start with a very warm welcome upon arrival. We were attending a masquerade ball the evening we arrived with no time for dinner and the hotel offered to make sandwiches and snacks so we could stay in and enjoy a meal in our gowns before leaving for the ball! It was perfect! We enjoyed a delicious breakfast each morning with cappuccino and ended every evening with vino and snacks in the bar area. The hotel scheduled all of our taxis, Covid test appointments and helped with planning our departure. We felt well taken care of…like family! Can’t wait to return to Hotel Flora and would definitely recommend to family and friends.
What can i say? everything was just PERFECT. Me and my partner stayed in Hotel Flora for 5 nights and it was wonderful. Grazie mille, we will be back!
We loved every moment of our stay in Hotel Flora. Everyone was so welcoming, frendly and extremely helpful, nothing is too much trouble. The Hotel is charming and very quiet. Will definately come back.
Sister hotel Novocento two years ago, a year’s absence due to Covid and Hotel Flora last week. Both great hotels; location, accommodation and especially the knowledge, hospitality and kindness of the staff. Thank you!
A delightful stay in a comfortable and friendly hotel. The staff were unfailingly helpful, and the facilities first rate. Very much enjoyed!
Hotel Flora is truly a gem. This was our 3rd stay and will not be our last. Wonderful staff, hospitality, perfectly located and an air of old hotel charm. Thank you!
Hotel Flora was the most perfect hotel for my family! The staff were outstanding – so helpful with local eateries & visits. Hotel Flora itself was a cosy snug right in the heart of Venice. The breakfasts were perfect – the amaretto sours were pretty good too! Would definitely stay again.
A mere “Thank you” cannot suffice…my ten day stay at the Hotel Flora during the end of September 2021 was magical. Everyone who worked at the hotel was gracious, professional and extremely friendly. Eating breakfast in the garden every morning was delightful and returning to the hotel afterward and having a drink at the bar was the perfect way to end the day. I would recommend the Hotel Flora to anyone who wishes to visit Venice. I hope in the future I will be back!
L’hôtel Flora est un établissement parfait par l’accueil chaleureux de son équipe, par le cadre charmant de son jardin intérieure dans lequel on peut prendre son petit déjeuner ou boire un verre en soirée, par son emplacement à la fois très central (5min de la place st Marc et 10min de la fenice) et très calme.
Merci pour les conseils sur les visites des îles de burano et murano, c’était une belle excursion. Et merci pour l’organisation des visites des manufactures organisées par vos soins.
Notre premier voyage à Venise a été un vrai plaisir!
We had a wonderful time at the Hotel Flora. Everything was wonderful, especially loved the garden. Thank you!
My new favorite hotel. The kindest people in the most beautiful space. We will be back soon!
Hotel Flora is a lovely boutique hotel centrally located in the heart of Venice! The Romanelli family are exceptional hosts who truly enjoy providing hospitality to their guests. The garden is a beautiful spot to have breakfast or a drink in the afternoon. The owner suggested excellent restaurants for dinner. My mother is 80 years old and their staff were incredibly helpful transporting our luggage to a water taxi. It was a wonderful stay and we wished we had booked a few more days at the hotel. Despite Covid, now is really the perfect time to visit Italy! The crowds are light and we could easily access all the sights in Venice.
What a great place to spent time in Venice! Every one is so nice and alert to the guests needs.
Plusieurs personnes parlent français en plus de l’anglais.
Les recommandations des restos sont superbes.
Vraiment très très bien.
Ready for another visit!
It was nice. We will e back. Thanks
Wonderful boutique hotel in the heart of Venice . Lovely family owned and run xxxTaylor
Fantastic and inspiring stay and very warm hosts. Thank you for the impressive Venice experience.

Home in Venice! Great hotel but the best are the people taking care of you!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in early July 2021. My 18 year old daughter and I were on our first-ever trip to Italy. Hotel Flora was in a wonderful location, making it easy for us to explore Venice. It is tucked away down a street and was a wonderful respite! The garden was so lovely — we enjoyed breakfast and evening cocktails there each day. All the staff were friendly and helpful. We particularly appreciated them providing breakfast to us for our very early departure time. When we return, we would definitely want to stay here again! Thank you to all the Hotel Flora staff!
What a friendly and familiar atmoshpere at Hotel Flora! The locaton is superb, the stuff very nice and helpful and the breakfast absolutely delicious.
Flora is a perfect location to stay in Venice, we got perfect recommendations for restaurants, reservation for Guggenheim et cetera.
Thank You very much, we love venice and FLORA, we will be back, thats for sure!
Great to have been here again for 4 nights!
You get a warm welcome, the hotel is quiet, very cosy and familiar and the stuff is EXCEPTIONALLY helpful, the lovingly composed breakfast in the lovingly composed garden gives you a wonderful start for the day.
I would highly recommend the FLORA because of the great hospitality.
Once having been here, you won`t book anywhere else !!
We’ve been many times at Hotel Flora and every single time it’s like returning home. Everyone is friendly and helpful, the atmosphere is elegant and relaxed. The Romanellis know the city so well they can give tips and ideas you wouldn’t find anywhere else. And they care for the future of Venice through their commitment to the environment and a sustainable tourism. The staff is not only kind, they are helpful and warm. Venice is a marvelous place; being able to return to the Flora makes it even more so. We couldn’t recommend it warmly enough!
Dorothea and Lourenço
Thank you for keeping up elegant tradition in your house. I felt at home and enjoyed my stay a lot. Thank you and till next time, Eva Giesel
xtrem fründlich und zuvorkommend, super zimmer, ruhig, zentral. ich nimms wieder!!
I have known Hotel Flora for nearly 25 years and up to now I took accommodation there for more than a dozen times. It is an exceptionally lovely and enjoyable hotel, perfectly situated with only some steps to public water transport, Piazza San Marco, Arsenale and Giardini, Academia Bridge, La Fenice and Rialto, more central is not possible. The whole hotel and its staff show a special charge and service orientation which you very rarely find over the whole world.
And now, in the COVID-19 pandemic, the hotel managed the restrictions and regulation perfectly, there was no feeling of any inconveniences. The breakfast in the garden was a real event – and also the bar service in the evening. I will come back in any case, as often as possible. Thanks to everybody!
9th and 10th of May 2021
This was our first time in the Flora and were immediately caught by the special charm. The Flora is a beautiful gem in the center of Venice. From here you can easily reach everything on foot without being aware of the general hustle and bustle in Venice. The employees are all very nice and take care of all concerns, especially the owner couple Romanelli is extremely nice and accommodating. We’ll be back for sure!
This time was our first time at Hotel Flora but it will not be our last that is for sure! After so many years in so many different places in Venice, from the top to the bottom – we have found the place for us. It really feels like Venice, the clientele seemed delightful, nothing is intrusive, The garden is a paradise ! Staff could not be more charming. The beds are superb – very important for me! Thank you Romanelli family, you really know how to run a good hotel ! Coming back for a week next year.
We have been guests at the Hotel Flora several times already. Every single time it has been a pleasure and a relaxing stay, specially in times of Covid-19. We couldn’t have felt safer in these times. And at the same time the Romanelli family and their staff continue to be as friendly, helpful and cordial as ever. Good taste is to be found everywhere, a pleasant mix of traditional Venetian and modern. The Flora became our home from home in Venice. No stay in this dream city would be complete without it!
One of the best hotels we have ever stayed at! We absolutely adored everything about it from the room, service, location, breakfast, and genuine hospitality. We will no doubt make regular trips back! Thank you to the Romanelli family!
My daughter and I spent a couple of days in Venice. The town was quiet and empty. Lovely for a visit, but sad for those who depend on tourism. The hotel felt like a home away from home. A lovely room, best placed right next to St.Marks Place, but mostly the friendly staff made it a very special time. Thank you so much! We hope soon more people will be able to enjoy this wonderful city again.
We stayed a whole week and enjoyed every minute. It was quiet, very personal. We´ll come back. Thank you for the good service.
First visit to Venice and recommended to Hotel Flora by a friend. What a good choice. Charming old family run hotel with lots of character. Modern facilities without spoiling the charm. Convenient location only a short walk to St Marks Square, Very friendly and helpful staff. Lovely walled courtyard garden. Stayed for five nights (had to book an additional night as flights were changed) staff were very accommodating with this. Will certainly book the Hotel Flora again when we return to Venice and will recommend to all our friends. Thank you for a lovely visit. John & Angela Oakley
It’s not the first time i stay in Hotel Flora, however, it’s always a pleasure. Ideal location, nice staff and a breakfast in this wonderful little garden is the perfect start for a beautiful day in Venice. I and my family had a great time, as ever.
20 years wedding anniversary in the most charming nest ever…
Authenticity, discretion, quietude, attention to details…
Thanks also for all the good addresses and tips which have enlightened our stay.
Grazie mille, merci beaucoup, muito obrigado.
A wonderful place to enjoy Venice.
We had been two nights in September in Hotel Flora and we will come back for sure!!!
It is a very cosy and charming place in the middle of San Marco with excellent service and a very nice and guest friendly owner.
Best located with a small beautiful garden to enjoy breakfast or an Apperitivo!
Grazie mille to all of you making our stay most comfortable,
Peter & Yvonne
Our stay @ the Hotal Flora was wonderful!
+ nice location
+ wonderful hotel & charming rooms
+ great breakfast
+ but most important thing to mention are the warm-hearted people working there (Diego => your awesome!) and the owners (Romanelli) which are so lovely and give all their energy into this Hotel and are promoting/pushing sustainable tourism in Venice!
We went back to Venice in the summer of 2018 with our two children and we decided to stay at the Hotel Flora which we had stayed our first time to Venice back in 1989. The hotel is as charming as ever before and the terrific breakfast in this little gem of a garden did not disappoint. We enjoyed every bit of our stay in Venice and this wonderful hotel . Great location ! Venice is spectacular in every way .
Happy to hear that you and Italy are opening up after such a tragic and challenging time !!!
The hotel was great! I particularly loved the Courtyard and breakfast- very delicious and fresh. I went in February which I highly recommend because it was still quiet in Venice. I used Prontopia to get there- its like an Uber on foot that meets you at the train and shows you the way without having to navigate the canals and carry your bags alone- a total lifesaver! I definitely recommend the hotel and will stay there again!
My wife and I had a lovely two night stay at Hotel Flora. It was so convenient, priced fairly, very quaint rooms, a wonderful breakfast and a great bar for late night.
We stayed at Flora 2 times in a row. We were so satisfied the first time and we choose to stay there again. The location is so comfortable, 2 minutes from San Marco square. Breakfast is so high qualified. Everything was homemade. For sure we will stay there again at our next time in Venice!!
My wife and I loved our stay in November. Your hotel and staff are excellent. We also enjoyed the breakfast, and a ride over to Murano one morning. We hope to visit again some day.
What a wonderful stay we had in Venice at Hotel Flora. Beautiful room, so quiet and relaxing yet so close to the action in Venice. Staff was wonderful, very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delicious and the courtyard was lovely. Location was perfect: close to vaporetto stop, St Marks, shopping, and an easy walk to the Rialto and other neighborhoods. Highly recommend!
Thanks a lot for the amazing stay in my trip! I love the Flora and your wonderful staf. It was my second times in this hotel and it was so beautiful again. I wrote about the hotel in my blog because it deserves .Thanks again.
We had such a lovely stay at Hotel Flora. The garden makes for a quiet retreat in Venice. And our room was very cozy. The staff was exceptional. We would stay again if we ever have the chance to visit Venice in the future.
Historical properties are my first choice when it comes to choosing my abode away from home and Hotel Flora delivered on that point. The property oozes with character and I like the fact that it has been preserved as such. Sergio at the front desk made me so welcome upon arrival. His sense of hospitality and care for his guests are second to none. He’s attentive, caring, friendly and made me feel I could rely on him like a good friend. Kelum always remembered my preference for cappuccino in the morning with breakfast, and it was always delightful to be greeted by him; he was like my sunshine in the morning. The staff is what really makes home away from home for travelers and they all showed me their warmth and conviviality. I have warm memories indeed.

We had a wonderful stay in your delightful hotel, it is a little oasis. From your friendly and helpful staff, fabulous room and lovely breakfast, it was perfect.
Little touches like we arrived too early to check in but we were offered use of the hotels facilities, we had a drink and got some very tasty Focaccia and olives to accompany our drinks.
Thanks for everything.
E’ stato un piacevolissimo weekend!
L’hotel è splendido: un luogo familiare, confortevole e immerso nella bellezza, nel cuore di Venezia.
Un posto del cuore in cui tornare per farsi coccolare.
This was a perfectly wonderful hotel. Lovely staff, so helpful. The rooms were clean and charming. I would come back here anytime and recommend to anyone coming to Venice. Fresh figs in the morning picked from a tree in the garden! Great location and instructions to find hotel were easy.
Thanks Thanks to all of the staff. Each of you make possible an inolvidable stay. We love the hotel, charming, elegant , cozy. Love the breakfast at the patio, I miss the croissants and pastries, and cheese, everything.
This hotel is the best in Venice because : Excelente location, excellent service, excellent staff, excellent ambiance , price, rooms , everything .
I share this comment of one of the servers when I recognized him how good, friendly and profesional all the staff at this place are: ” all the staff that we work here we did not work from the stomach, we work from the heart ”
I highly recommend this beautiful place.
My daughter and I stayed at Hotel Flora for one night prior to our cruise. My first time to Venice and had absolutely no idea where we should stay. Took a chance only by how charming your hotel looked on line and the reviews. Boy did we hit the jackpot! Location. room, garden breakfast all perfect. Staff were so nice and helpful which was a blessing for two women traveling alone.
Thanks for the wonderful memory.
Lovely hotel with great service, and a wonderful location. I highly recommend it.

My friend and I stayed at Hotel Flora for 3 nights over Redemption Day in July. We loved our stay at the hotel and would highly recommend it to friends who are visiting Venice. We loved the courtyard and the breakfast. We also loved the great recommendations for dinner and tips for the weekend – I can tell the staff of the hotel love their jobs. Thank you for a lovely stay- Robyn and Zoe
Hotel Flora was the best thing about our trip to Venice. We loved the courtyard breakfast every morning and the consideration and consistent graciousness of all staff we came in contact with. We are grateful for everything you did to make our visit special.
We stayed 2 nights in a family room at the Hotel Flora in July 2019, what a wonderful hotel that helped make our trip to Venice truly memorable. The location is perfect and the staff were really helpful. Whilst Venice was incredibly hot and busy during our stay stepping into the Hotel Flora was always calming and cool. I would definitely recommend this hotel. Grazie!
We were so pleased the minute we walked into the beautiful lobby of the Hotel Flora! The European style, the friendly staff, the beautiful lobby and garden. Plus, the location to all the sightseeing was perfect. We were in Switzerland the week before and there was a heat wave and so we were hoping this hotel had good air conditioning. And, it did! Our room was small but typical for Europe in size, cleanliness, was welcoming and cool. We enjoyed a drink after our travels in the garden courtyard which was a plus, to have this available right at our hotel. The front desk staff person helped us with directions and places for dinner, booking us a reservation and a taxi for our departure. I would love to come back and will highly recommend this boutique hotel in Venice!
Leaving tomorrow Venice our first trip and one always to be remembered. Hotel flora fantastic. Kind , welcoming . Lovely room . Fantastic breakfast and cocktails late afternoon after walking around all day . Relaxed atmosphere right in centre of everything but a calm oasis . Book it . Will be coming back . Went in November best time . No queues . Thank you for such lovely stay
This summer I stayed for a second time at Hotel Flora, enjoying breakfast in the charming garden patio while our pleasant waiter whistled through the morning. Before dinner wine in their barside seating gave us a chance to chat with other travelers, this area allows for quiet reading, teens were quietly playing phone games/chatting all a nice relaxing experience. We requested a photo from our friendly bartender perched on the only two barstools, what a unique bar! Our room was huge, filled with beautiful art deco wood pieces, a wardrobe large enough for a month’s stay, dressers, a 24″ table with two chairs for breakfast in the room, tall windows overlooking the garden…I could have stayed a month! Most important is the staff who take care of this place with a family kind of feeling, I mean you feel like part of the family. They were all so helpful when I left my laptop/backpack on the water taxi to airport, Cristian, Diego and the Concierge called to have it returned to Hotel Flora and then continued to stay in communication with me, helping coordinate with UPS for shipment of my laptop over to me. The concierge expertly packed it for a safe trip. The attention and care they provided kept me assured I would eventually have it returned safely. Thanks to Cristian, Diego, the front desk and Concierge staff, a heartfelt thank you! My first stay at Hotel Flora 17 years ago was enchanting, this second stay was even more so because the ambience of the hotel’s interiors and the staff’s ease in accommodating guests provide a warm old-world feeling, but with the conveniences of wifi, tv etc to match our lives of today. So yes!…I highly recommend Hotel Flora!
Ciao-Libby
We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Flora! We found out about this hotel through our Rick Steve’s Venice guidebook and it did not disappoint! It is very quiet, comfortable, has excellent service, and provides an outstanding breakfast in a serene garden setting. Big thank you’s to Stefano, Giovanni, and the older gentleman at breakfast who’s name I cannot recall. All were helpful, professional, attentive, responsive and warm. I feel like we had a taste of the real Venice there. We would highly recommend Hotel Flora!
We saw this hotel in a recent Conde Nast Travel magazine and were interested in in booking it. Then a family member had it on their list of recommendations so the deal was sealed. We are looking forward to staying there in November.
Twenty years ago l stayed with a friend at the beautiful Hotel Flora as the result of a competition win. We had an amazing time and fell in love with Venice, the Italian people and the wonderful Hotel Flora. This resulted in us visiting over the years many different places in Italy and some of her islands. All of which have been fabulous. This year we decided to return to Venice and stay again st the Hotel Flora. We were not disappointed. The hotel has retained it’s magic. The staff are friendly and helpful; the beds are so comfortable; the breakfast is wonderful; the location is perfect and the garden is a delight. This hotel is everything you could wish for and more. I’m a few hours we will be checking out to return home to England. Thank you Hotel Flora for two wonderful stays and for inspiring us to visit other areas in Italy. You are however our first love and we hope to return again to Venice and your magical hotel.
Consiglio molto caldamente l’hotel Flora sia per la centralità, rara, della posizione, sia per la squisitezza dell’ospitalità sia infine per il gusto e la classe dell’arredamento. E’ vero, sembra di stare in un a casa, un delizioso palazzetto veneziano!
I strongly recommend Hotel Flora both for the central and rare position and for the delicacy of hospitality, as well as the special and elegant decor.
Six of us stayed at Hotel Flora for five wonderful days. The hospitality shown was outstanding. ..especially the magnificent Stefano. Everything from cooking, service and pigeon wrangling . Kelum was also a stand out . The beds were comfortable, the rooms charming, the courtyard a huge bonus and sanctuary. The breakfast was a sensational start to each day.
Easy walking to Venice’s main attractions .
Will definitely recommend this hotel to all
Just returned from a week in Venice and a lovely stay at Hotel Flora. Everything was lovely–fro the garden, to the rooms, the dining room, and most of all the staff. Breakfast was a lovely range of so many different choices…the ultimate….the baking!!! Coffee was wonderful and the steamed milk both served in silver pot were charming. China, setting, every detail for the nicest of experiences for each guest! Stefano is exceptional with his smile, service and incredible baking! Hot chocolate in the evening is not to be missed! Every effort and question was answered readily and with the care and service so evident to providing guests with the best experience and facilitation! I would recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Venice—so convenient, short walk to everything, and a delightful , charming set of accommodations!!!
I hope to return and will certainly stay here again!!
Thank you to all at Hotel Flora for a wonderful visit and stay in Venice!!!
Very very good
Very pleasant stay at this hotel could not be better located. Warm, quiet, hearty breakfast and good quality, the coffee is good. No complaints.
Holyday
We thank you for a wonderful holiday thanks to your perfect hospitality.
We loved our stay.
Certainly true, a romantic hotel in the midst of a busy city. We had the most wonderful and special Christmas one could possible imagine. The hotel is beautiful, the staff in friendly and knowledgeable. Midnight mass at San Marco, opera just a short walk from the front door, memories we shall have a cherish for years. We will come back next Christmas.
What a wonderful place to enjoy the magic of Venice.
I can not stop thinking of the hot chocolate I had at breakfast! The best ever, The hotel iis very nice with professionl people that help with all your needs. Wonderful location and a 5 minute stroll to Pizzza San Marco. wonderful outside garden! You will love it. I am returning again in May this year.
We LOVE the FLORA!
We had the best time in the Flora on our honeymoon in Venice. The rooms were spacious and sweet, the staff was very welcoming and curtious. On top of that the breakfasts were so delicious (hot tip, you must try the hot chocolate!!!), and the location was PERFECT. We highly recommend this hotel to our friends and family and are happy recommend to you. Enjoy your stay at the Flora! You won’t forget it.
Praise
Our family stayed at the Hotel Flora December 2011. We had the most wonderful stay. The facilities are elegant and charming, but the highlight of the stay was your wonderful staff. Concierge and chef made us feel so welcome and provided such brilliant service, arranging boats, late meals. No praise is too high. I will recommend you to all my associates.
My stay at Hotel Flora
I would like to thank you for your hospitality. I enjoyed my stay at Hotel Flora on July 14, 2012. Thank all your staff as everybody was very nice and professional. I loved the house white wine. Please let me know which one is served there as I meant to write down the name of the wine and the grape and I forgot. Thank you again for your amenities and your hospitality. Very nice hotel that I will recommend. Alicia Forte
