Charming historic details such as vaulted staircases
Elegant rooms with damask wallpaper and chandeliers
Some rooms overlook a canal
Converted from a small palace
Cozy café with breakfast buffet and free afternoon snacks
Located in the vibrant, less touristy Cannaregio district
Quiet location near the Vaporetto
Fee for Wi-Fi
Furnishings are elegant, but may strike some as cheesy
A bit far from major tourist sights
A classic Venetian small palace turned 36-room hotel, the UNA Hotel Venezia is located in the charming Cannaregio district near a Vaporetto stop. A cozy café serves a big breakfast buffet and free afternoon refreshments -- including Prosecco. Clean rooms have elegant, historical style (think: damask wallpaper, bed drapery, striped fabrics, gilded mirrors, chandeliers), but some may find the rooms with green decor a tad busy. There are pretty canal views from some rooms but there’s a pesky fee for Wi-Fi. It's worth comparing rates with the Carnival Palace Hotel, which has free Wi-Fi and arguably more stylish rooms.

Scene
A charming small hotel outside of the tourist center
The UNA Hotel Venezia has lovely traditional architecture and historical details -- such as exposed brick vaulted stairways -- and elegant decor. Murano glass chandeliers are a nice touch and the hotel is pet-friendly. This former palace turned boutique hotel overlooks a small canal and square. Many rooms are spacious, and free afternoon refreshments add to the value (but expect to pay for Wi-Fi).
Location
On a quiet back street in the lively Cannaregio district
Overlooking a small canal and small square, UNA Hotel Venezia is on a quiet back street outside of the tourist center. There are many lovely restaurants, cafes, and bars nearby, but major attractions like San Marco are approximately 20 minutes away on foot. The Ca d’Oro Vaporetto stop is a short stroll from the hotel.
Rooms
Rooms have elegant, historic style; many are spacious and some overlook the canal
Rooms are decorated in a classic Venetian style, and each has nice touches including an electric kettle, flat-screen TV, and a work desk and chair. Traditional patterns and formal drapes are elegant, though the rooms decorated in green decor may feel either busy or grand, depending on tastes. Most rooms are spacious and some overlook the canal. Bathrooms are big and modern.
Features
A cozy café and spacious lobby
As a converted former palace, the UNA Hotel Venezia offers the chance to admire traditional architecture and historic details. An inviting café serves both a generous breakfast buffet and afternoon snacks, complete with Prosecco. The lobby is big for the size of the hotel, with plenty of areas for lounging. The hotel charges a fee for Wi-Fi, but there is a computer for guest use.
