Hotel San Moisè

by Durant Imboden

The Hotel San Moisè is an excellent three-star (first-class) hotel near the Piazza San Marco. It's an especially good choice if you're on your first trip to Venice, for three reasons:

The Hotel San Moisè is very close to the most popular sights and shopping areas, yet it has a quiet, romantic location next to a canal where you can see--and hear--gondola serenades year-round.
The San Moisè has a traditional, old-fashioned Venetian decor and ambience, with plenty of beamed ceilings, terrazzo floors, and Murano glass chandeliers.
It enjoys an unusually high user rating from Venere, our Italian booking partner, which has been surveying guests since 2002.

ABOVE: The Hotel San Moisè is on a quiet street next to Venice's most musical canal.

My 18-year-old son and I stayed at the Hotel San Moisè several years ago. We booked a canal-view room through Venere at a favorable off-season rate and spent a night at the San Moisè after a cruise from Venice. The fact that we enjoyed our stay at the three-star Hotel San Moisè after a week of five-star cruising luxury speaks well for the hotel's standards of decor, comfort, and housekeeping.
