Albergo BEL Sito e Berlino

For one reason or another, I loved this hotel. Unless you are going to visit the Accademia museum, this hotel is a bit out of the way but I still loved it for many reasons.
1. It resembled a combination of French and Venetian designs. The lobby looked very classic, the patio outside was lush with plants hanging from ceilings with abundant sunlight coming in.
2. The concierge was some of the most friendly, happy and helpful people in Venice. Qualities you don’t get a lot of in Venice or even in Italy as a whole. Especially to tourists.
3. The rooms were very old school romantic Venetian. It was decorated nicely. It was always chilled when we walked in. Bed was so comfortable we slept till 10am one day. A record on our trip.
4. The breakfast was awesome. They had a fresh honeycomb. A fresh honeycomb. Name me a place that serves that. The many conettos, white cakes, pastries and baked goods laying out was presented really well and it tasted so good. They have a yogurt dispenser that was something I’ve seen for the first time. Lots of juices, jams and variety of cereal. I think they had meat as well but we skipped that. The Cappachino they made was probably the best I had in Italy.
What’s not to like?

Bel Sito is a chic little bed and breakfast right in front of Santa Maria del Giglio church and is very close to the water bus stop.
If you’re coming from Marco Polo airport, the Alilaguna Linea Arancio stops here. About an hour or so ride
If by train, the #1 Vaporetto stops at the Giglio station before San Marco.
Very close to St Marks Square and Sestiere San Marco for your luxury brand shopping lol
Service was on point. Breakfast was pretty good. Served from 730−10am. Room is very «Venetian». Lobby is quite nice and they have outdoor tables and seating to enjoy breakfast, espresso in the afternoon or even some drinks at night.
In terms of affordability, I do think it is reasonably priced. I’ll definitely recommend Bel Sito.
