Tripplo's verdict, based on guest reviews
Tripplo’s analysis · Updated 26 September 2026 · How we review hotels
This property is best for those attending the Biennale or seeking a quiet garden setting. Hotel Gabrielli Venezia - Starhotels Collezione wins exceptional praise from guests. Standing on the lagoon-facing Riva degli Schiavoni, it features a private courtyard rose garden, classic Venetian decor, and convenient access to the Biennale Gardens. Keep in mind that it is slightly removed from the train station, and the historic layout means variable room sizes.
Guests score it 9.6 out of 10 — the average across the 17 hotels we list in Venice is 9.4.
What Guests Loved
- Situated on Riva degli Schiavoni, the hotel offers sweeping waterfront views of the Venetian lagoon while remaining a comfortable, ten-minute stroll from Saint Mark’s Square.
- The secluded interior rose garden provides a quiet sanctuary away from tourist crowds, complemented by a rooftop terrace ideal for evening drinks overlooking the water.
Things to Consider
- Arriving from Santa Lucia station requires a vaporetto ride or water taxi, though the scenic route along the Grand Canal serves as an appealing introduction to the city.
- As a historic property, some guest rooms are more compact than modern builds, though they maintain consistent style and high-end amenities throughout.
