I've booked literally hundreds of nights world-wide as a lifelong Platinum/Titanium member. On this stay, I booked a room for myself and 3 kids to celebrate Christmas, something I have done for over 20 years and as a Platinum/Titanium member have never had an issue with this. The room was large, had enough for a king bed, rollaway bed and couch. It was a suite. However, for the first time this hotel made me book a second room and I was very unhappy about that, especially since that cost me another 270,000 points. Every other reception I've check in have been very accommodating for my family and quickly checked me in and let me go about my business. We really wanted to stay together in one room and I felt they made much ado about nothing making the check-in process excruciating long after a full day of travel. Not a family friendly hotel and gave off an air of snootiness about this establishment, I will not be coming back. It would have been nice to offset their decision with spa vouchers, restaurant credit, etc. to take the sting out of it but they did not offer that.
First class all the way! Our stay at the Gritti was one of our favorite hotel stays ever. Immaculate suites, bathrooms, corridors, views, history and a front desk personnel that are engaging and helpful. I recommend having lunch on the terrace for some of the best views (and food) in Venice. Also, if you plan to spend your days walking Venice's charming streets and visiting its many museums and churches, start the day right with Gritti's magnificent breakfast buffet.
My Gritti Palace stay in Venice was exceptional. The heritage suite, featuring a spacious living room, well-appointed bathroom, and a convenient powder room, provided a luxurious and comfortable retreat. The unique breakfast experience by the Grand Canal added a touch of magic to each morning. The impeccable service, attention to detail, and the blend of opulence and charm make Gritti Palace a top choice for those seeking a refined stay in Venice. Highly recommended for indulging in the epitome of Venetian luxury.
We only had the chance to stay one night. As someone who has spent a lot of nights in hotels this place is amazing. The view of the Grand Canal is breathtaking, the service is top notch, but the bed was the most comfortable bed that I have ever slept in.
All I can say is...WOW!
I'm a Marriott Platinum. At first I was told they had no upgrades available from my basic room, BUT somehow a Serenissima Suite became available and I was graciously provided with it, as long as I was willing to wait until 4:30pm for it. Obviously I was fine with that.
I was in 328/329. When I was taken up, my jaw dropped at how wonderful it was.
Everything was clean and in order. Service was fantastic.
Breakfast in the restaurant was fantastic.

Let me share my experience with you – this hotel is truly exceptional. I frequently travel for work and accumulated an impressive number of hotel points. I decided to use them for a special trip to Venice with my now-fiancé. The Gritti Palace Hotel graciously honored my suite night awards and provided us with suite 331/332. Interestingly, this suite has a bit of history as Elton John once stayed here, a fact commemorated by a signed napkin outside the door.
Our entire stay was nothing short of amazing. They took care of everything, even handling our laundry, and surprised us with a complimentary bottle of champagne. I'm already planning to return as often as possible. If I could, I'd even consider living there! A big thank you to everyone who made this trip truly memorable.
It's important to note that this level of luxury doesn't come cheap. We opted for private airport transfers and indulged in various convenient services during our stay, which undoubtedly contributed to the spectacular experience.

We loved our stay at the Gritty Palace! Excellent service, great food and cocktails, the location can't be beat, the interior of the hotel and room were beautiful with attention to detail...and the history of the place makes it The Gritty! Thanks to the entire staff for a job well done.
