Bed & Breakfast creations have increased dramatically in the last decade or so in Venice with establishments offering an alternative to hotels, expensive or otherwise, and in locations often slightly off-centre from the tourist trail although by no means in the middle of nowhere, with spots all over Venice’ six sestieri (neighbourhoods)

These B&B’s can often provided good value for money compared to more expensive and grander sounding places. A number of hotels also include their listing on various B&B sites into the bargain in order to maximise potential.
