Hostel Santa Fosca is the best choice if you want to stay in a young and friendly atmosphere and in a central location.

Per motivi covid siamo stati spostati alla struttura Casa Accademia, stessa gestione.
Ci siamo trovati molto bene.

Come sempre tutto ok!
Elisabetta (hostelsclub)
Best hostel I’ve ever been in the center of Venice, 15 min by foot to the Piazza San Marco / Rialto, quiet (because in the middle of a convent), super clean, secure, with a beautiful garden and a big kitchen when we can use pasta and rice for free. The staff was so nice and booked for me some activities for free.
I recommend 100%
Marine (hostelsclub)
For me this was the loveliest hostel I've stayed at so far! The location is perfect on the island (although the whole Venice island is very walkable no matter where you're staying). The hostel has a great common room, kitchen and courtyard. In the kitchen they offer free pasta, spices and oil.
The entire place is extremely clean and someone came to clean our room and bathroom every day. Reception staff is also extremely friendly and happy to help/answer any questions; I also got to meet students from the nearby student dormitory.
I also met really great roommates and people in the common room; this place was definitely the highlight of my stay in Italy!
Thank you Ostello Santa Fosca, I really enjoyed my stay at the hostel.
Tory (hostelsclub)
Ottimo luogo, grazie di cuore a Francesco x l'ospitalità e la simpatia, rapporto qualità prezzo veramente buona,torneremo sicuramente, pulitissimo
Roberto (hostelsclub)
Ostello Santa Fosca is a very nice hostel! The rooms are clean, the staff's very friendly and gave me a lot of tips, even though I checked in quite late. The location was superb, only 13 minutes by foot from the train station and just 4 minutes from the nearest vaporetto stop. The main touristic spots are also at walking distance, but the hostel is situated in a nice quiet place where you don't hear any noise.
100% recommended!
Laura (hostelsclub)
Consigliatissimo! Personale gentilissimo che fornisce le informazioni più utili e strategiche per girare bene la città.
Elisa (hostelsclub)
L'unica pecca è il check in che era possibile fare solo dalle 13,30. Io sono arrivata la mattina presto e ho dovuto girare tutto il giorno per Venezia con il bagaglio appresso.
Simona (hostelsclub)
I will come again
ELENI (hostelsclub)
Gentilissimi ed efficienti nonostante io sia capitato in una sera con enormi problemi dovuti all'acqua alta eccezionale a Venezia
Fabrizio (hostelsclub)
Santa Fosca is an oasis of tranquillity inside the hustle and bustle of Venice. Again, we enjoyed it very much!
Dieter (hostelsclub)
best hostelin Venice, I like it
bocedi (hostelsclub)
Clean, renewed, friendly, opened, grat idea to offer coffe, drinks and the kitchen possibilities. I had a wonderful time and always come back, for many years already. Thank you for your kindness!
Marina Barbara (hostelsclub)
This is the best place to stay in Venice
Elina (hostelsclub)
Ostello fantastico in una zona molto bella e centrale di Venezia.
consigliatissimo!!!
Maria (hostelsclub)
cleaning stuff is removing personal things and the toilet was not always clean. the stuff was perfect, but the men was a horror, loud and intrusive. the cling system of the doors has to be improved!
Schlytschkowa (hostelsclub)
I really enjoyed my stay. Location was great. Loved the church bells. Staff was helpful. Nice courtyard.
JANICE (hostelsclub)
Il voto allo staff va tutto alla signora che si occupa dei check in, fantastica! La pulizia lascia un po' a desiderare, si potrebbe aggiungere un corner dove poterlasciare sapone che non si vuole portare indietro per chi verrà in seguito.
Ottima posizione, ma un po'nascosto. Sarebbe bello avere anche uno scaffale dove lasciare/ prendere cibo gratuitamente (degli ospiti che partono). L'ostello è carino ma al limite del necessario, un po' troppo minimalistico.
Rebecca (hostelsclub)
It’s a nice and central hostel especially for Venice however is a very old building that could do with a renovation and clean. We weren’t given blankets in our room either. Was okay for a bed
Jessica (hostelsclub)
The location is great and the building is incredibly beautiful. The staff was very nice and smiling.
Unfortunately, there were bedbugs in the room. I've been bitten around thirty times and the staff wasn't taking it seriously at all. They even accused us to have brought them. The place could be infested if they don't react correctly.
(can't give a good mark for this reason)
Claudio (hostelsclub)
Great hostel! Good location, super clean, amazing rooms (private with bathroom), staff very friendly, beatiful spaces inside the hostel (basket/football field, gardens... Will repeat next time i go to Venice!
JOAO (hostelsclub)
Spent my whole summer visiting cities throughout Spain, Italy, and France and this may have been my favorite hostel I stayed in. Loved all of the green spaces/courtyards, friendly people and staff (the only reasonably priced place I could find in venice that allowed me to check in after my late night flight), and only a few single beds to each room rather than filled to capacity with bunk beds.
Alexa (hostelsclub)
Decent sized rooms and great lockers, fan isn’t that good so gets hot in summer, kitchen was excellent and location is nice. Not the most social but nice courtyard
Charlie (hostelsclub)
Posto bellissimo,ben organizzato e personale gentilissimo!!!
Patrizia (hostelsclub)
Ci siamo trovati molto bene, accolti con cortesia. Il luogo è molto silenzioso, cosa rara essendo a Venezia. Ci sono ampi spazi esterni, la nostra camera spaziosa e pulita. Consigliatissima anche per rapporto qualità -prezzo e per la posizione. Ci ritorneremo! Grazie
maria (hostelsclub)
It's perfect hostel.
Well situated and very good for us and our baby (Baby bed in room)
It was easy to communicate with staff and the room was cosy.
Kitchen is well equipped.
Conynck (hostelsclub)
A little bit dated (especially the bathrooms) but in a very convenient location to some main streets of Venice, while far away enough to be quiet at night. Has all you need.
Natasha (hostelsclub)
We really enjoyed our stay! The hostel building is a beautiful former convent. The staff was very friendly and very helpful, and the kitchen area was excellent. Remember that no towels are provided, and even the private rooms are in the style of university dorms. The hostel is slightly out of the way - don't expect to pop out the front door and immediately see a market. But within about 5 minutes or so, you start to see shops.
Philip (hostelsclub)
Una vera sorpresa. Nel cuore di Venezia. Ambiente piacevole e accogliente. Adatto a tutti.
Rita (hostelsclub)
Very nice place. And big kitchen. I will return
vivian (hostelsclub)
Lack of AC expected, but only one small fan for 4th floor not enough. Views were amazing and hostel was very charming. Overall definitely worth it!
Michael (hostelsclub)
Grounds and room very unique and pretty. Beds in a loft which could have been very nice. However, very hot summer so temps were much higher in the loft and it was difficult to sleep. Very glad I only stayed one night.
Vicky (hostelsclub)
pulito, tranquillo e silenzioso.Personale gentile.
Seconda volta che vengo qui e ci ritornerò
elisabetta (hostelsclub)
I hadn't stayed in a hostel dorm for a long time and actually was happy with the experience. I had my own bed (not a bunk bed) which was really nice, and although we were seven in a room (female dorm) I felt like we managed quite well with just one bathroom and one toilet to share. Everyone was respectful and kind. The staff was friendly, the kitchen was well equipped however the fridge was very small. Free tea, coffee and pasta was a nice added touch. It was clean, location was nice and within walking distance from everywhere. Overall definitely recommended!
Josephine (hostelsclub)
Man at reception wonderful! Gave us so many tips on exploring Venice for our one day there. He went above and beyond.
Courtney (hostelsclub)
Consigliatissimo!
Giorgio (hostelsclub)
Very good place, very kind people!
Serena (hostelsclub)
It was à Nice expérience. Rooms were warm and cosy.
Asma (hostelsclub)
Beautiful hostel, everything is clean, the kitchen is well equipped, the staff is very friendly. The location is okay, it is easy to find and near the stations but far from the "center". As a negative aspect, my room was really cold considering it was in winter.
Bruno (hostelsclub)
Ottima posizione.Molto tranquillo.Ben gestito.Forniscono informazioni molto utili e molto interessanti.E in più il posto ha una storia lunga e interesante.Consigliato.
LUCIA (hostelsclub)
I loved my stay at Ostello Santa Fosca. The room and bathroom were spacious and clean. Bed linen and hand soap included and light and plug for each bed. Everything was in good conditions and the staff was nice and helpful. The location is great, in the main island, just a 20 minute walk from the train station and also within short walking distance from Rialto and Piazza San Marco. I highly recommend it.
Beatriz (hostelsclub)
è stato piacevole soggiornare all'ostello Santa Fosca .Molto accogliente ,personale serio, ambiente pulitissimo ,cucina fornita di tutto , posizione giografica molto comoda consigliabile a qualunque fascia di età
Caterina (hostelsclub)
Everything was perfect except the internet connection.
Mohsen (hostelsclub)
It was my third time at Ostello Santa Fosca. And it was again very good. I met great people, the room was enough for two people, the bathroom was ok. This is the best place to stay in Venice when you a student/a traveller who want to sleep in Venice, not in Mestre. It's close to railway station, close to vaporetto stop. The kitchen is big and you can prepare meals and coffee every day. Love it!
Dominika (hostelsclub)
Great location, quiet but close to everything. Common kitchen works well. Nice shared spaces. Room had everything we needed. Beautiful spot.
Laura (hostelsclub)
Ottima posizione e location. Staff amichevole e dosponibile. Solo la pulizia del bagno era un po' scarsa. Questo attenua un po' la mia valutazione nel complesso molto positiva
ANNALISA (hostelsclub)
Would appreciate it if towels were included or offered. Staff were helpful and friendly.
Stephanie (hostelsclub)
perfectly beautiful place with a lot of space. The staff is amazing! They have a great kitchen and much common space. Perfect if you like to feet at home in a flatshare kind of style. Thanks!
Stephanie (hostelsclub)
Mi sono trovata benissimo, staff accogliente e disponibile, camere pulite e funzionali, abbiamo potuto lasciare i bagagli ancora per qualche ora dopo aver fatto il check-out, esperienza da ripetere
Letizia (hostelsclub)
Vengo qui da circa 10 anni, quasi una volta all'anno. Amo la stanza mista da 4, che a volte si rivela da 3, con il bagno fuori (un sacco di docce pulite). Non c'è l'aria condizionata, che io odio, ma ha il ventilatore da soffitto con le pale. Ogni letto ha vicino armadio, tavolo e comodino. C'è anche la cucina comune, per chi viaggia con un budget limitato, e supermercati nei dintorni. Insomma, si va sul sicuro.
LAURA (hostelsclub)
A perfect location not far from the S. Lucia train station and easy to find, small rooms of only 3 beds with a locked cupboard for each, and a great kitchen... I couldn't dream better, especially for that quite low price!
Estelle (hostelsclub)
The Ostello Santa Fosca is a great place to be in Venice. Very well located, the staff is kind and there’s a great atmosphere... I recommend this place !
cécile (hostelsclub)
a great hostel with a great location and large rooms and lockers! they had everything I needed except a reception who is usually always there to guide the travelers in most of the hostels and make the hostel feel warm and welcoming. I stayed for a week and I could see how many students traveling for 2 or 3 days needed someone local to guide them and give them advice and that is what every hostel provide and not here. was not a big deal for me. my room was clean and my bed was very comfortable. I loved the historic character of the courtyard of the hostel. good restahttps://old.hostelsclub.com/rev-en-2393268-f3b8f7c48f14df4f80f5cf3a25627a38#urants and cafes are only 2 minutes away. amazing experience in total and I definitely choose this hostel again for the future trips to Venice.
Fatemeh (hostelsclub)
I really enjoyed my stay, and thought it was very good value.
The position is quite central to where I wanted to be, 15 min walk to train station, and in a quiet, peaceful and beautiful neighborhood away from the massive crowds.
It's a bit of a walk (25 min) to St. Marco's square though, if that's an issue for some people. It wasn't for me.
Yonatan (hostelsclub)
Stupendo e tranquillo
Daniela (hostelsclub)
Though I couldn't sleep the night that I stayed there, still think it was a nice place to stay for a night!

Laura (hostelsclub)
The staff service was very kind and nice, always able to help. Even if there is no full service 24/7 of the reception the advice of this via mail before and in the hostel doesn't becomes a problem, great way to handle this.
Laura (hostelsclub)
A good clean, convince, place to stay in Venice. I do recommend to others.
.
Yumi (hostelsclub)
Freezing cold, noisy doors/hallways, water spilling everywhere from bathroom, smells old and mildew, tucked far away from anything, strict and unhelpful reception. The only good part is the very clean sheets and individual lights/outlets at the beds.
Valeria (hostelsclub)
Just amazing. The garden, your kindness. Just amazing.
Elisa (hostelsclub)
Terrible problem in the bathroom: The water on the floor after every shower, the water coming out of the bathroom even to the corridor. You go to the bathroom at night and your shoes are immediately wet. It should be fixed asap.
Except this: fabulous garden, nice kitchen and dining-room. Nice people, fantastic place, 5 minutes to vaporetto
Anna (hostelsclub)
My room was not swept to the ground when I arrived
DA SILVA (hostelsclub)
Great location and cheap compared to other central Venice hostels! There's a nice big garden and the rooms are spacious and clean. Staff aren't always on shift but it was fine because we arrived in the allocated time. Would recommend!
Bridget (hostelsclub)
Ottima posizione!Centrale ma in zona tranquilla
Chiara (hostelsclub)
abbiamo avuto nella notte di venerdì 29 settembre un gruppo di ragazze tedesche che si sono ubriacate con relativo schiamazzo proprio sotto le finestre della nostra camera.Magari l'ostello potrebbe invitare gli ospiti a fare schiamazzo altrove.
clara (hostelsclub)
Great place to start your exploration of Venezia. Politeness and cleanliness around.
ANGELO (hostelsclub)
camera troppo piccola e poco pulita... la posizione invece è abbastanza comoda
Martina (hostelsclub)
really nice !
Mehdi (hostelsclub)
This hostel was a lot different than the others we stayed in on our Europe trip. It was more like a college dorm, and less loud and intense (others definitely had a "party" type atmosphere). The rooms themselves were nothing special but pretty nice (which is what we were looking for honestly), and the shared bathrooms were clean enough for the most part. The location was excellent and the staff were all very nice.
Emily (hostelsclub)
Charming place in old church, with a garden, walking distance to all of Venice atraction
Dagmara (hostelsclub)
A good place for a short trip.
I d have appreciated to find soap to wash hands
Sarah (hostelsclub)
Wi-Fi did not work. Floor of room was stained. Bed had a hair on it. Overall clean but not perfect
Jonathan (hostelsclub)
The hostel is basic but it met all of my needs: crisp and clean sheets, a confortable bed, a hot shower, perfect location away from the hordes of tourists and walking distance from the train station, large window which lets in the fresh night air, and great advice from a very friendly staff who knows Venice!
Brigitte (hostelsclub)
Location was great and facilities were good for our stay, the kitchen had everything we needed. Seemed to be a lot of midges so we got bit a lot, take some repellant. Overall a good hostel and we loved Venice.
Ellie (hostelsclub)
L'Ostello è situato in una posizione strategica. L'accoglienza è ottima e l'ambiente è semplice, migliorabili gli arredi. Ottimo rapporto qualità/ prezzo. Consigliato vivamente.
Flavia (hostelsclub)
We were turned away the first night despite having arrived at 10.45 ( we had been told it would be ok until 11.00. We were very lucky to find another hotel and not spend the night on the street.
Fenella (hostelsclub)
Great location, but be aware, it is an old, university-dorm-converted hostel. Spacious and right on the edge of the water, this hostel was sufficient for a few night's stay. Bathroom and kitchen were clean enough. It might get a little warm as there was no AC and only one ceiling fan for a huge room.
Angeline (hostelsclub)
Ottimo prezzo per Venezia centro. Stanza con bagno indipendente dalla struttura. possibilità di lasciare i bagagli dopo il check out.
Marco (hostelsclub)
Bathroom should be renovated. Smells of feces is alwalys present. No room service during the stay.
Thomas (hostelsclub)
The bathroom was a bit strange...the whole floor was flooded each time some showered! Apart from that it was really nice!
Charlotte (hostelsclub)
Staff was nice. The place didn't offer much though and the check in took over an hour because there was a line of people. Not having 24/7 reception was horrible. Great location though and out of the touristy part.
Logan (hostelsclub)
Our shower flod and we went to say to the reception, and the nice guy promised to repair it, but when we arrived again it was like the same. Staff was nice and we could check-in before it was the check in time.
Venla (hostelsclub)
Great location, friendly and helpful staff but the room was extremely dirty, would recommend for value but with the issue with cleanliness of rooms this would be a big issue with most visitors.
Steven (hostelsclub)
Fantastic!
Monika (hostelsclub)
Is very simple and is fine to visit Venice at a good price. Very quiet the night. Is in one of my favourite parts of Venice, very beautiful and authentic. The only defect is that the staff is there just in the afternoon, if you need something (which is not an emergengy) in the morning or the night can be annoying. But they are very kind!
Elisa (hostelsclub)
Great place for a short stay in Venice!
ANGELA (hostelsclub)
Nice central place, friendly staff, but bedbugs from the first night on. I had to sleep two nights on the floor, because no alternative accomodation was provided.
The generally kind staff just denied any bedbug bits all over my face and chest. No compensation and even no washing of my infected sleeping clothes was offered. Just the excuse that it would have been mosquitos, and the hostel would be booked out.
However, I was the only one in the room of four who had suddenly more than 10 mosquito bits which drove my out of bed at the 3 am in the morning. The skin reaction was also much stronger in a row than to simple mosquito bits, still visible after several days.
Marcus (hostelsclub)
Abbiamo soggiornato due notti in questo ostello. Camera doppia privata con bagno: essenziale ma accogliente. Ottimo compromesso qualità/prezzo. Facilmente raggiungibile dalla stazione Santa Lucia.
Marta (hostelsclub)
It's disgusting and !unhealthy! that the bathroom is mold-infested.
Merle (hostelsclub)
L'ostello è in una bella struttura e in una zona centrale. La pulizia lascia un po' a desiderare
lisa (hostelsclub)
Ottimo come sempre
Gabriele (hostelsclub)
Durante il soggiorno ci son stati evidenti deficit di pulizia, particolarmente nel bagno. Stanza 30
viola (hostelsclub)
salve,la nostra camera non era molto pulita,soprattutto il sottoscala e abbiamo trovato la finestra aperta dalle pulizie a fine ottobre. grazie
elisa (hostelsclub)
Ottima la posizione,il personale,cucina e camera molto pulite,il bagno dovrebbe avere una manutenzione e dovrebbe essere pulito due volte al giorno non una.La sera nella mia camera non era acceso il riscaldamento ,impensabile x novembre a Venezia.Mentre venivano accesi la mattina,ma non presto e all'ora di pranzo.... non ho capito questa scelta.La stanza era fredda!!
Rita (hostelsclub)
il posto è veramente ottimo e la struttura è buona per passarci alcuni momenti nella splendida Venezia. I bagni in comune potrebbero essere puliti una volta di più.
Alberto (hostelsclub)
Ciò che colpisce subito dell'ostello è il luogo in cui si trova, di fronte ad una Chiesa con un bel giardino direttamente su un canale, molto suggestivo. Vicino al centro, staff gentile e disponibile, camera e bagno molto puliti, lo consiglierei a tutti!!!
Anna (hostelsclub)
IL WIFI NON FUNZIONA E NON SI TRATTA DI UN PROBLEMA TEMPORANEO
Marica (hostelsclub)
Un edificio storico incantevole e confortevole. Peccato che l'ostello non fornisca asciugamani per il prezzo della stanza. Il caffè e il tè "offerti" agli ospiti potevano essere un plus se non fossero in realtà resti lasciati dagli ospiti precedenti... Bisognerebbe anche comprare più stoviglia per gli ospiti che mangiano all'ostello. 4 tazze per 20 persone sono un po' giuste...
MARJORIE (hostelsclub)
Locus amoenus
sara (hostelsclub)
La prima notte sembrava di essere in discoteca musica alta fino alle tre della notte...non hanno smesso nemmeno dopo aver chiesto per due volte..non c'era presente nessun responsabile dell'ostello con cui piter parlare.
Giovan Battista (hostelsclub)
Curare meglio la pulizia delle Camere.
Antonio (hostelsclub)
è molto comodo per posizione geografica e permette permanenze dignitose. le camere sono eccessivamente riscaldate.
è un gran peccato che l'unico spazio comune sia aperto dalle 13 alle 20, orario estremamente fiscale.
anna (hostelsclub)
Sporco. Ci era stato detto che ogni giorno alle 10 cisarebbe stata la pulizia delle stanze ma in 3 giorni non c'è mai stata. All'arrivo abbiamo segnalato un piede del letto malmesso per il quale non sono stati presi provvedimenti e abbiamo dovuto dormire così, attenti ai movimenti per non farlo crollare. Unica nota positiva la posizione, come del resto in qualsiasi posto si alloggi a Venezia vista la dimensione del centro storico.
