Hotel dalla Mora
By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-22.
At €92 per night it delivers Venice on a budget: a 1-star hotel with air conditioning, a canal-side terrace and a breakfast spread that beats many rivals, plus you walk to the train station and Rialto in under quarter of an hour. Book it if you plan to spend the day sightseeing and can overlook thin walls; skip it if you need quiet mornings or expect hotel-room privacy.

This hotel suits travellers who want a Venice address without the €200-plus nightly spend, families needing air conditioning and pets allowed (both confirmed amenities), and anyone landing at the train or bus stations and keen to drop bags fast. The terrace overlooks a canal and guests call the setting peaceful.
Skip it if noise bothers you. Soundproofing between rooms and hallways is poor according to guest feedback; you will hear neighbours and corridor traffic. Also skip it if you want a room to relax in: this is a 1-star budget base, not a place to linger indoors.
Location and getting around
The address is Salizada San Pantalon 42 in Santa Croce, and the location score from guests is 9.5 out of 10. Guests highlight the short walk to the train and bus stations, though exact minutes are not confirmed.
Rialto Bridge sits 1 kilometre away, roughly 13 minutes on foot in a straight line. St Mark's Basilica is 1.3 kilometres (16 minutes walking estimate), Doge's Palace 1.4 kilometres (18 minutes). All times are straight-line estimates; actual routes through Venice alleys may differ, so add a few minutes. Restaurants cluster near the hotel according to guest reviews.
What guests say
The hotel scores 8.9 out of 10 from 2,130 reviews, tying for ninth place among 19 eligible properties in the provider sample. Guests like the location for its proximity to transport and the canal-view setting. They also praise the breakfast: a simple spread of coffee, pastries and boiled eggs that guests call tasty.
The main complaint is area quietness. The neighbourhood itself is peaceful, but soundproofing between rooms and hallways is poor, so expect to hear footsteps and voices. No other specific weaknesses appear in the data.
Price and what you get, compared with our other two picks
The reference price is €92 per night for two adults staying 10 to 12 November 2026, not a live quote. That figure was the lowest eligible price after we reserved the upscale slot, and it sits 66 per cent below the sample median of €240.91.
Our Best Value pick, B&B HOTEL Venezia Laguna, costs €104 per night and scores 8.8 with 3 stars. Our Luxury choice, Hotel Gabrielli Venezia – Starhotels Collezione, runs €595 per night and scores 9.6 with 5 stars. The €12 jump to Best Value buys you an extra star and a slightly higher specification; the €503 leap to Luxury buys a top-tier score and five-star service. For Budget travellers, dalla Mora delivers air conditioning, breakfast, a terrace and a canal view at the entry price.
Why it made our top 3
We compared 19 hotels in the provider sample. This one earned the Budget slot because it combined the lowest eligible price with a strong 8.9 guest score, useful facilities (free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, terrace, family rooms and pets allowed) and a 9.5 location score. The breakfast inclusion and canal-view terrace set it apart from other budget contenders.
Many Venice budget hotels either skip breakfast or charge extra, or they lack air conditioning. This one includes both, plus the terrace gives you a spot to sit outside without paying cafe prices.
Before you book
Check cancellation terms and whether breakfast is included for your dates; the data confirms it offers continental and buffet options, but inclusion varies by rate. Verify room size, renovation condition and any terrace access restrictions not detailed here.
Confirm pet policies if travelling with animals, and ask about noise levels when booking a specific room; some may sit further from hallways or stairwells. Walking times to sights are straight-line estimates, so allow extra minutes for actual routes. Facilities like the terrace may have seasonal hours or weather closures.
