Pensione Seguso - A 16th-century family-run Venice hotel with canal views and antique furnishings
Located in Dorsoduro's cultural district, Pensione Seguso occupies a 16th-century building along the Zattere waterfront, overlooking Giudecca Canal. This 2-star Venice hotel features rooms furnished with family antiques, offering views of either Giudecca Canal or S.Vio Canal. A private dock allows water taxi and gondola access directly to the entrance. The property includes a ground-floor lounge, two dining rooms serving continental breakfast, and Wi-Fi in common areas. An elevator serves all floors - a rare feature among Venice properties. The Pensione Seguso stands within a 15-minute walk of Peggy Guggenheim Museum and Gallerie dell'Accademia. Teatro la Fenice is 0.3 miles away, while San Marco is accessible by a single boat stop.

“Pensione Seguso appeals to those seeking an authentic Venetian experience, stepping away from the main tourist flow while remaining within easy reach of key attractions.
