“We have just returned from our third stay at this charming hotel which we would choose over a modern 5 star any day. It has the atmosphere of an established Venetian family home where you are welcomed as guests, not tourists. The setting is secluded and serene and an ideal location for sightseeing. Seguso is particularly convenient for the airport. The staff are friendly and helpful, especially Pasana whose smile is as wide and warm as his manner and whose English is impeccable. Likewise "Mr. Lawrence" who goes out of his way to welcome you and make your stay comfortable. We didn't want to leave.”

“The experience was very nice. Hotels conveniently off of the Grand canal. Easily accessible with water taxi or water bus. Customer service what's impeccable. They were very helpful and very kind with all our needs. This is a very old building and is not going to be a five-star Hilton. But it has class and if you want an authentic Venetian experience, this is it! Breakfast in the morning is simple but very nice. Plenty to choose from. Truly enjoyed this experience.”

“Just leaving Venice after staying at Pensione Seguso for 3 nights. It is a beautifully appointed, traditional Pensione. We received the most incredible local recommendations and service from the staff. If you want a hotel that is infinitely charming look no further. We are already dreaming of our return.”

“I cannot express how much we appreciate everyone at this hotel. They were so accommodating. They helped with directions and even printed directions and information for us. The rooms were finely decorated with details from a prior century. This is a family owned home passed down and has evolved into a lovely hotel. Breakfast is served daily and it is amazing! I must mention the location is excellent with many restaurants conveniently located just a few steps away. The Water bus stop was very close and St Marks Square was in walking distance. While staying in Venice location is so important due to steps everywhere. Loved that we had a beautiful view from our room.”

“This long running family hotel is full of treasures and divine old world Venetian charm, and reflects what you hope to get out of this dreamy palatial watery city. I love when you feel at home in a hotel, Lawrence and all the staff here were just the best! Superb friendly service with fantastic local recommendations. Incredible views and location. Beautiful decor. Can’t wait to stay again one day”

“Lovely hotel with impeccable service from staff. The rooms were clean and felt very authentically Italian. Perfect location for a quieter spot, but beautiful views and very easy to catch the vaperetto or walk to other parts of the city. Perfect for a weekend in Venice! Thank you for having us”
