Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel had some downsides like small rooms and limited dining options but excelled in service and ideal location. The value for money was satisfactory.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The room was clean and spacious, decorated in a beautiful traditional Venetian style, although lacking some expected amenities. The staff was initially a bit reserved but turned out to be very friendly and helpful. The location couldn't have been better, right in the heart of Venice, allowing easy access to all the main attractions, shopping areas, and great dining spots. However, the dining options were a bit underwhelming. Overall a pleasant experience with some room for improvement.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room was quite large and clean as shown in the picture, but the low ceiling made it uncomfortable for my partner during showers. The lack of air conditioning made the room hot and stuffy. However, the hotel overlooks one of the canals and had a large, very clean bathroom.
The hotel had a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were comfortable and had the necessary facilities, but they were smaller than expected and lacking in some amenities. The service was overall helpful, especially in accommodating late check-out and porter services, but there were moments of stiffness. The location was excellent, with easy access to key tourist spots and convenient water taxi services. The dining experience was average, offering a limited selection. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The room was beautifully decorated with a high ceiling and a splendid view, making it a superb experience. The staff went above and beyond to help us, from providing maps to assisting with language barriers. The location couldn't have been better, just a short walk from St Mark's Square, and surrounded by charming Venetian vibes. The dining options were good overall, with delightful pastries, although the breakfast could have been more varied. The facilities were top-notch, including a beautiful Venetian castle atmosphere around the reception area.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The beautifully decorated, spacious rooms offered wonderful views but fell short of the expected 4-star standard. The service was friendly and helpful overall, but there were instances of unhelpfulness. The location on the canal was excellent, though some aspects of the dining experience were ordinary.
The hotel had a charming traditional Venetian style, with nicely decorated rooms, though there was some noise from staff conversations outside in the morning. The service was always helpful, particularly with airport information. The location was ideal for exploring San Marco square and designer shops, but initially tricky to find. The dining experience, while continental in style, fell short of a four-star standard. Overall, a mixed but quaint stay.
The hotel was tiny and always full, making it hard to find a place to sit, with a very limited food choice. The mezzanine floor was a bit scary at night, not knowing what was up there. Service was accommodating for a late check-out and helpful with dietary needs, but some amenities did not work. The location was excellent for reaching attractions. The dining experience had fewer selections and was not a great value.
The hotel offered a mixed experience with nice perks like knowledgeable and helpful staff who provided a map of the area and took care of our luggage but fell short in areas such as poor breakfast and cramped rooms. The location was ideal, close to quality restaurants, although a bit congested at times.
