Here is some directional advice for those staying here...when you find the bank, look for the 'black jack' store and follow that ally. once you approach the end of the ally, you will see a large brown door located in the very corner on ur left hand side...you have to press the buzzer in order to be let in!!!

This hotel was in a fantastic location, literally 5mins from the Rialto :) No internet access which was a downside and the receptionist was only available from 8.30 till 12.30 so we have to save all our questions for the morning!! However, once we got round this, we had a fantastic time.

This place was incredible. It was modern, clean, felt like a star hotel room. The staff didn't speak English, and was not always at the reception, so don't look to them for help. They are very friendly, but they are only their to check you into your fabulous room and bring you breakfast in the...

We booked for two days, but they said there was no place so we moved to another hotel: "The suites of Giulietta and Romeo" This was FABULOUS, great location and wonderful stay. Il diamante seemed to be a nice place but I cannot write comments about it, because we moved.

Our room was clean and modern, but watch out for stubbing you toe on the base of the bed. My wife felt our room was a little dark (it had one narrow window), but there were plenty of lights in the room. There was no English language TV, so we were out of touch with what was going on elsewhere - not a real problem. In fact,the only real problem was finding it. Besides the name in the tiny mailbox window, there's no sign, and the neighbors are not aware it's there. The instructions should say: "FIND CAMPO SAN LUCA AND LOOK FOR NUMBER 4262." When you do that, it's pretty easy. Google Maps shows it a couple of blocks from where it really is.close

There was rarely anyone at the front desk so we never got our questions answered. Whenever we returned we never saw anyone at the desk. We needed to know when check out was and when we called the number they gave us the guy said he would not answer any questions until the morning which made no sense at all and he was very rude about it. The lady at the desk is also very rude for no particular reason.close

Lovely little B&B - very friendly staff and a beautiful room with a comfortable bed! Check out was a little on the early side for us (10am) but they were happy to hold our luggage as long as we wanted to wander the city. Definitely worth the money - highly recommended.

Cannot fault this place at all. A huge clean double room at a very very reasonable price. Very clean and very central, short walk to San Marco. Can't believe I got this place for such a cheap price. Very highly recommended !!

We are US college students and just traveling abroad, enjoying the sites of Venice. It was a great b&b- extremely clean, nice atmosphere, secure & the staff was very friendly. The location was also wonderful- so close to San Marco and Rialto to access the vaporettos easily (not to mention countless restaurants and cafes). The breakfast was great as well, you can select a time between 8-10 am and it will be brought to the room (brioches, your choice of caffe, juice, rolls, and an assortment of jams etc.) Overall it was a very pleasant stay and I would definitely recommend Il Diamante. It was perfect for a couples' weekend getaway!close
