“Hotel Ateneo strikes me as a strategically situated, typically Venetian escape, mere steps from St. Mark's Square, yet tucked away in a quiet square. The included breakfast and genuinely helpful staff further enhance the appeal, while the decor whispers of antique elegance. For a reasonably priced stay in the heart of Venice, it seems a smart choice.”
