“Will not go back.”

It was ok, was clean, although on the second day we arrived at 3pm and very tired, the room was as we left it the day before, bed wasnt made yet. Breakfast was good, and people at the front desk were nice. The hotel was very old, we asked for a queen bed and got two tweens put together, terrible pillows, the bathroom was small but water ran ok. Far too expensive for what we got, then again everything in Venice is expensive, Next time we will look harder and earlier.

Area recommendations
As close as you can get to San Marcos.
Getting there
We arrived at the train station, lots of peoplen we had 2 suitcases each, hired a water taxi. The best one ever, if you can by all means take one, costs around 100 euros, but in Venice it felt like you were in amovie, it was very fast and confortable and as you reach the city the view was amaizing, if I go back, I definately get on one again.

“Great place, Perfect location!”

I stayed here for three nights in a small room on the fourth floor. The room had two twin beds even though I was alone, which gave me lots of extra space. The bathroom was beautiful, with a huge tub and a heated towel rack. The air conditioning kept my room really cold, sometimes too cold! The breakfast is amazing, it includes anything you could want, and they serve coffee and hot chocolate directly to you at your table. It is very close to the Arsenal, a focus point of my trip as I was there for the Venice Biennial. It is also close to San Marcos Plaza, and in between vaporetto stops. The only things that bothered me about the hotel were that the internet is expensive (4 euro for a half an hour) and the people that work at the front desk are not the nicest. Overall, I would definitely return.

Area recommendations
Anything around San Marcos is great, and so is the area around Pallazzo Loredan (both areas have good food, good shopping and beautiful sights to see.)

“"Enjoyed Our Stay"”

Overall an excellent stay! Great location on 4 bridges from St Mark's Square. We enjoyed the complimentary breakfast each morning in the courtyard and the staff was very friendly and efficent. Front desk staff was very helpful with suggestions and recommendations on where to eat and what to see. The guest rooms were nice, the bed was not comfortable is our only negative about the entire stay.

“Excelent location”

Well localized to see the events of the Bienalle just walking, and to come and go to the airport (pier Arsenalle). Rooms are large and comfortable and the internal open space for the breakfast very pleasant. Nice people too.

Area recommendations
We spent our time in Giardinni and Arsenale due to the Bienalle. Also San Marco and Rialto must be seen of course. But it is only a small part. Venice is really special and its appeal is above the competitors.

“Best hotel place with the lagoon view”

The hotel is in a very good place. 10 mins to San Marco and has a shuttle water-taxi to Murano every half an hour. The staff is very nice and helping.

Area recommendations
San Marco square and Rialto Bridge is must to go every day. Go to Murano to see demonstration of glass work. And buy some souvenirs. And go to Burano to see a very exciting small island village with different colors of every house.
Dining
Near Rialto Bridge, there are good restaurants.
Outdoors or beach
There is a heli-tour, which is very cheap and it is a private tour for 2. I would recommend that. It was amazing.

“the location was excellant will stay there again”

The hotel should have coffee available before 7:00 A.M. for guests and it should be free for guests. The same goes for water.

Area recommendations
The city is beautiful and I would recommend any where in the city as it is clean and safe. The same goes for the islands surrounding the city.

“Excellent Venice Hotel”

This hotel is just four bridges (a short walk) from St. Mark's Square. Water taxis and ferries dock in front of the hotel, but there is minimal noise if the room windows are closed. The furniture is traditional but comfortable. The complimentary breakfast is very good. The staff is extremely helpful. The solarium on the top floor is a great place to have a drink and watch the world go by. This may be the best bargain in Venice.

Area recommendations
This is the place to be. When leaving the hotel, the 'action' is to the right. If you want good food at more affordable prices, good shopping, etc. walk to the left. A grocery store there is the place to buy food, snacks, wine, etc.

“Romantic Venice”

The hotel was located at a perfect spot away from the square. We could hear the ships and activity until the late hours, but not so loud that we could not sleep. The huge windows gave us a beautiful view of the waterfront. The bathrooms were a little old, but clean, so it was not a bother at all. The bed was very comfortable, and the rooms had lockers. Breakfast was sufficient, and they even had some coffee ready for us the day we were leaving, an early departure. Very good value for our money. Venice being the most expensive Italian city, the hotel price was a break.

Area recommendations
The same neighborhood. Near San Marcos Square. Most everything is near and around this area.
Shopping
Walk around the city to get best deals. Prices are very inconsistent, but you can buy directly from the artisans if you look around. A little bit of bargaining helps. When you buy directly, you will want to pay them their worth.
Other
Although I traveled with my extended family and a teenage nephew, I can see why Venice can be the most Romantic city ever. You can get lost in one of the many alleys of Venice and have an adventure while finding your way back. Look into the fairyland quality shops and hang on to those moments. Even now, I wish I hadn't passed up the chance to buy more for friends and family. The Gondola rides through the small canals with music or conversation floating through the dimly lit windows can be quite breathtaking and intoxicating, taking us back to our teenage romantic novel days.
