A b udget boutique hotel in Venice

The Hotel Violino d'Oro in Venice, Italy

Hotel Violino d'Oro

Heavy drapes, rich blues, golds, and reds, and a sumptuous 18th century style help define this relatively new boutique hotel on its own little campiello in a primo location: just off the main shopping street between San Marco and the Accademia.

Given the plush surroundings, and the fact that six of the modestly-sized rooms overlook Rio San Moisé canal, it's surprisingly inexpensive, with winter rates dipping as low as €60 for a double room. Even high season prices, which can spike to €300, are pretty reasonable—well, reasonable for Venice.

San Marco 2091, on Via XXII Marzo
