The Istituto is located in the perfect spot, about halfway between Piazza San Marco and the Rialto Bridge. It is a truly unique opportunity to sample a slice of real Venetian life. The Istituto is an elementary parochial day school, and the nuns who run it do not speak English. Between 7:30am-7:30pm they have an English-speaking staff member managing the... more

Location: It is situated just off San Marco Square, and is actually quite easy to find by Venice standards. Room: We stayed in a Triple Room. Quite basic, but it is a convent! Cleanliness was very good. Bathroom was large, good shower. Bed was very firm and comfortable. Service: They have English speakers who answer the door during the day,... more

The Instituto was a fine place to stay for my wife and I for three nights in June. In fact we seriously considered staying an additional night. The rooms are typical of convents, basic but clean. And the convent was very quiet even though it was very centrally located between Rialto and St. Marks. Breakfast would have been nice but... more

Having read the other reviews about San Giuseppe, which I found very helpful, I set off to spend a week there. It was just as the other reviewers said. San Giuseppe is clean and comfortable, safe and welcoming. I was surprised to find the room I occupied so comfortable. It was not as sparse as I expected. There are no... more

We stayed at the Istituto for 2 nights and only have positive things to say about this establishment. Our room was bigger than expected, with 3 single beds and furnished simply. A large window with big shutters opened into a courtyard, providing fresh air and blocking out any exterior noise. The bathroom was large and well-equipped; both rooms were spotless.... more

We stayed at this hostel for 3 nights in mid-June. Our room was small and spartan but very clean and the bathroom was very good. A tip for summer stays- there is no air conditioning, though a fan was provided, so during the hot weather we found it necessary to sleep with the windows open. We were almost carried away... more

We were happy to stay at this facility. It was very clean and absolutely quiet. We have already recommended it to friends. The location was fabulous too. Loris was a great help if you were looking for things to do, places to eat etc. The nuns were helpful and kind. Our 2 teen-aged boys were quite happy with the facilities... more

I stayed at Istituto San Giuseppe for 2 nights at the beginning of June, 2007. It has to be the best bargain in Venice, land of expensive hotels. I paid 44 euros a night: 40 to the Instituto and 4 to a booking agency. I chose to use the booking agency because I could correspond with them via email in... more

During a three-month trip to Europe, this was by far the best bargain we encountered. At only 30 euros per person per night, we received a quiet, spacious private room with an excellent, clean private bathroom and comfortable beds. The location is excellent, just a two-minute walk to the Piazza San Marco. And everything was so quiet, despite being in... more
