Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Aqua Palace enjoys a superb location, making it easy to reach both the Rialto Bridge and St Mark's Square in about 5 minutes. Guests frequently praise the spacious rooms, some featuring lovely canal views, though a few have noted early morning noise from city work on the canal. Many appreciate the traditional decor and find the beds very comfortable; family rooms with two bedrooms are also available, and some appreciate the convenience of an in-room fridge, including a complimentary first bottle of water.
