“Wonderful location close to everything that you'd need for a week's stay in Venetia! Excellent staff and well-appointed room. Thank you for a wonderful stay”
“The location was excellent, only a 40m from the water bus dock. The hotel was located in a pretty square close to St Mark’s Square. The staff was very helpful and the room very comfortable. The singing gondoliers below our window were a bonus. The breakfast was delicious and the hotel was beautifully decorated.”
“The location was excellent, close to everything, yet not too congested or noisy. The breakfast was really very nice with an excellent selection.”
“The location was perfect. The style and the breakfast and the friendly staff”
“We were greeted with friendliness and made to feel very welcome. The room was perfect, it was a bonus to see we were adjacent to one of the canals. The room was comfortable, clean, and had everything we needed. It was really handy to be able to leave our bags on check out so we could do some more sightseeing before we were due to leave. Breakfast had a lot to offer and was delicious. Thank you for a lovely stay.”
“Great location in Venice. We had a lovely room on the top floor and the breakfast was fantastic. You can help yourself to free coffee in the hotel lounge all day. We would not hesitate to recommend this hotel to anyone travelling to Venice.”
“It was our first time in Venice and it was so easy to catch the Aliguna boat into Venice on the Orange line and took around an hour. From the boat stop, it was a two minute walk up the alleyway without crossing any bridges. So easy to find and ideally located for exploring Venice. Staff were friendly and set up our room beautifully for our anniversary. We had a canal view from our window which was great when gondolas with people being serenaded as they passed! It was very mild for November albeit high tide but we weren’t really affected by it - very exciting!”
“Excellent breakfasts - the best we had in Italy. We paid an additional fee to upgrade to a room overlooking the small canal next to the hotel. The room was spacious and attractive but the canal can only be seen by opening the widow and leaning over the sill. Since mosquitos are a problem in Venice, we got little value out of the view.”
“Location, staff, breakfast.the hotel should be rated a 4 star not 3 star”
