Are you kidding? Stay at any hotel, dont limit yourself to any one piticuliar place. Say hi to my relatives while your out there. Your whole family could stay with my family out there, they love American people:)
I recommend anywhere except for a basement apartment.
I've stayed at the Locanda Arco Antico. Lovely place. There are many properties at Venere.com. Excellent site.
What to do, well, the Doge's Palace is wonderful as is St Marks. If you like art as I do there's a great collection at the Accademia. If you take a trip by water bus (vaporetto) you can get to the island of Murano which is famous for the manufacture of glass. There's cafe Florian in St Marks which is very expensive but enjoyable. They have musicians that play in the afternoon. (They charge a cover of 5.50 euros each). There are great markets at the Rialto and shops everywhere. If you decide on a gondola ride just beware. Maker very sure of the price before you agree and barter a little.
Have a great time.
If you want to be a queen,even for two days,try hotel Danielli.About what to do just walk.Venice it's not so large and you can visit everything that the others friends who answered you has already told about.
i always chose the best Hotel Danieli of course if you can asking for a suite and the for a drink try to go to the harry's bar.good luck.
We stayed at Holiday Inn Venice...even though its an American hotel is was a great thing for us because it was a big room (not like european hotels) it had a nice restaurant, free breakfast, great bar, it was inexpensive, allowed pets which was an issue for us and best of all it had a shuttle to take us into the city and pick us up and take us back to the hotel. Its kinda difficult to get around in Venice if you dont know what you are doing so it was great.
