In the very center of Venice, hidden behind St. Mark's Basilica, lies Hotel Ai Do Mori—a warm and laid-back hotel that captures the essence of the city's timeless beauty.
Merging comfort, simplicity, and functionality, the family-owned hotel offers visitors a chance to experience the true pulse of Venetian life with the luxury of modern facilities.
With its stunning location, generous hospitality, and friendly atmosphere, Hotel Ai Do Mori is one of San Marco's top-rated small hotels.
A Hidden Treasure Steps from St. Mark's Square
On Calle Larga San Marco, 658, Hotel Ai Do Mori boasts one of the luckiest locations in Venice—only a few paces from Doge's Palace, San Marco Piazza, and Campanile.
With such a privileged location, guests have the ability to walk out at once into the heart of Venice's most renowned landmarks but remain sheltered in a peaceful corner that maintains the city's subdued atmosphere.
The hotel is easily accessible by vaporetto (water bus) or water taxi, with stops nearby at San Marco Vallaresso or San Zaccaria. Its central location is the ideal starting point from which to visit the Rialto Bridge, Bridge of Sighs, and the many narrow streets and canals that typify Venice's romantic environment.
Venetian Personality Rooms
Hotel Ai Do Mori is renowned for its rustic Venetian charm paired with modern comfort in its rooms. Some of the rooms feature exposed wooden beams, elegant floors, and a warm color scheme that testifies to classical Venetian architecture.
Customers can choose from traditional rooms or superior ones with spectacular views of St. Mark's Basilica and its golden mosaics—a city experience in a frame in one's window.
The hotel room is well equipped with such simple comforts as air conditioning and heating, free internet connection, flat-screen televisions, and en-suite bathrooms.
Even when located in an antique building, the hotel ensures that all the facilities are in sync with contemporary standards of comfort. The elegant but simple interior design provides a cozy retreat after navigating the labyrinth of Venice's streets and bridges for a day.
A Stay Defined by Simplicity and Comfort
In contrast to so many of Venice's fine Venetian hotels, Ai Do Mori places priority on providing a cozy, homey welcoming atmosphere rather than mere luxury. Its cozy size ensures personalized attention for every guest, and its spotless rooms and attention to detail make it the ideal place to stay short- or long-term.
Travelers appreciate the hotel's good value and efficient service, given its excellent location. The family-run team takes pride in helping each guest feel at home, recommending what to see, where to eat, and how to explore Venice like a local.
Views and Vibes: Living Beside a Masterpiece
Few hotels can boast such proximity to one of the world's most well-known landmarks. In some of the rooms, the people staying at Hotel Ai Do Mori enjoy unobstructed views of St. Mark's Basilica, admiring the domes that glint like jewels and the detailed façades that have defined Venice for centuries.
This privileged perspective offers an unforgettable experience—watching the square spring to life in the soft morning light or listening for distant music from the neighboring Piazza San Marco. For many, this in itself is a cherished memory of their Venetian visit.
Accessibility and Modern Amenities
The owners of Hotel Ai Do Mori have done a great job in maintaining historical integrity while adding modern comforts. There is complimentary Wi-Fi throughout the property, and each room features soundproof windows to reduce sound despite the fact that the hotel is located at the very heart of the city.
Its architecture consists of steps instead of lifts, a characteristic shared with the majority of aged Venetian structures that adds to its charm of bygone days. The staff are never far off to assist with baggage and offer helpful travel tips, including access to the nearby ferry terminals or information about outings to islands of Murano and Burano.
Ideal for Couples and Culture Enthusiasts

Guests have easy access to Museo Correr, Teatro La Fenice, and numerous boutiques and local cafes.
Evenings near the hotel present the gentle thrum of Venetian existence—street entertainers, the glow of lanterns strung high over the canals, and the comforting hush that follows as the tourists disperse away from St. Mark's Square.
A True Reflection of Venice's Spirit
