Mattia the owner and host of Ponte Chiodo is always thinking and checking how your stay in Venice will be the very best. An example was on the 1st day there and it was raining - not a problem for Mattia out came gumboots (Wellingtons) for all and umbrellas much to the chagrin of other visitors to St Marks SQ... more

Upon so many years coming regularly to Venice it is rare to find undescovered places. This time it happens. By chance, a friend of mine red in a German newspaper a short description of Ponte Chiodo and we decided to book for our Biennale venue. Mattia is a charming host with a good feeling about estethic, warm hospitality and sense... more

This is a small, reasonably priced, quiet Inn that was close walking distance to everything you'd want to see and do in Venice. It appears to be well-cared for and was clean and updated but keeping its old-world charm. Liked the fact that we could make tea/coffee at any time or enjoy our own wine in the evening on the... more

We spent a romantic three nights at Ponte Chiodo. The place was clean and pleasant enough. The bathroom, however, was across the coridor , and was the smallest that you could possibly imagine, with the wash basin, the shower , the toilet and a bidet all crammed into 2 square meters. It was an igenious arangement, but I suspect that... more

Mattia was a wonderful host, was giving us the best tips where to go and to eat. He is a born Venetian, who can tell a lot of the "background" of his city. Ponte Chiodo is a lovely place, wonderful with garden and canal view, all roms lovely refurbished with nice old venetian furniture. Cannaregio is a sestieri in Venice... more

I can not rave enough about this lovely B & B located on a quiet canal. The owner, Mattia, is charming and helpful. It was a little difficult to find but we just asked some locals and they took us right to the gate. The rooms were clean and roomy with canal views. We travelled with another couple and at... more

My husband and I stayed recently at Ponte Chiodo and couldn't have been more pleased. The room was very comfortable and the location superb for us in a quiet little canal just off the Canale Grande at the Ca' Doro vaporetto stop. Mattia was very welcoming and a font of information about history and location and recommendations of places to... more

Our time at 3749 Ponte Chiodo was a welcome break from the bustling atmosphere of tourism in Venice. We felt we had found a piece of authentic Venice and our host helped us find a few more Venetian gems during our stay. Our rooms were clean, quiet, safe and picturesque, the breakfast garden lovely, the location ideal. more

Had worried a little that Ponte Chiodo might not live up to it's reputation when we arrived on 29th Sept. for 3 nights but were delighted. We had printed off a previous reviewer's advice re. finding it so had no trouble at all. ( However, if you are travelling from Marco Polo, the ferry from the airport, the Blue Line,... more
