Despite all our advice on budget stays in Venice, if you're really on a budget, you should stay away from the city. But if you're set on visiting and want a design hotel without entirely breaking the bank, we can only recommend the Ca'Pisani Design Hotel.
Very Italian stallion extravagance, with bold mixtures of colours, zebra print rugs, fake flames on light fixtures and fish-shaped keys. Futurist art on the walls. Free WiFi in rooms! Apparently. We haven't tested this. Large rooms and nice big marble bathrooms, both a rare find in Italian hotels. Jacuzzi bath in some suites.
