Clean and friendly but small
Room was pokey but clean !! We were sorry we didn’t ask for another one ! A bit depressing as it was in the back !! we were spoilt with the view in Venice!! The hotel itself was clean and staff really nice and breakfast for the price was really good! It was a lovely short walk to the boat. well kept.

Old-fashioned charm on the Lido
Villa Edera is a very nice old-style hotel on the Lido, away from the buzz of Venice -- but flat surfaces, so no lugging suitcases up and down stairs and bridges. Hotel is only a few blocks from vaporetto stop, and an easy walk down to the beach. Our room was small but pretty with a balcony. At night in the almost off-season, there is no desk service after 9 p.m. so guests pretty much have hotel to themselves, which seemed a little odd. Sound travels. But the hotel was clean and well cared for and there's a small elevator to ease carrying luggage.

Great location
Nice hotel in a great location, just off the main street, room was clean, breakfast was cereal, toast and egg, fruit, coissants, it was more than sufficient for the price only cost me 10 euros for 3 days. Only a short walk to the water taxi's. Great location to explore Venice and surrounding islands and I'd definately recomend staying on the lido.

Clean, cosy hotel in great location. Within 5 minute walk from plenty of restaurants and the beach, as well as the water taxis to get to Venice. Relaxing to stay outside of the “hustle and bustle” of busy Venice. Excellent choice for accommodation!

good location & value
They have a great breakfast included in the room cost. Clerks were very helpful about where to go and how to get there. The air conditioning worked too well, I had to adjust it, and this was in the middle of a heat wave. Lido is a little pricey to travel to and from every day, so a pass for the ferry is a good deal.

Located in quiet district close to shops and beach. Very clean, room adequate but basic. TV had no sound but then we don't speak Italian! Continental breakfast good and eaten on the terrace. Reception staff variable - some friendly, others less helpful.

Good hotel value hotel on Elba
We stayed for three nights in July 2014. The hotel is dated, but the room is clean, has a.c., had a small room with a big deck. The hotel had free wifi in the lobby, would of been better to have free in the room as well. The hotel had a free shuttle two and from the beach that was a 5 min ride away. The hotel is conveniently located within a 5 min drive from the centre of town where all the shops are. The hotel is family run and they were friendly and accommodating. Free light breakfast in the morning was nice. Free parking is included if u have a rental car. The pool was a good size and well kept. The room could have used a safe for security of valuables and you will need to buy a second adapter for the electrical outlets because all the outlets in the room are the old style that doesn't fit the North American adapter. A grocery store called "Conrad's" which is five min drive in town had this for 3 euros. U will also need to bring your own beach towel for the beach. All and all it is a good value for what we paid $100 euros.

Quiet Location
Convenient hotel set in fairly quiet side street midway between Lido beach and boat station. Plenty of bars, restaurants and shops nearby. Ideal location to explore the hustle and bustle of Venice before winding down in quieter surroundings.

Beware of a terrace being a balcony
Other than a young man called Punaru we found the reception staff including manager not all that friendly. Waitresses didn't know how to smile either. Rooms small but clean enough & towels daily if required & bed sheets changed often. Breakfast adequate, fresh & plentiful. We had upgraded to a terrace but initially given a small balcony/only room for a chair. Others 4 couples with us, 2 had upgraded to what was described as terrace but only got small balconies. They were are at first given the same type of rooms as those who had not upgraded but at substantial extra cost for a week. Because of this they got moved when another room was ready but never really got what they expected. When you look at the images the 2 big & 1 small terraces you see in a row are the only ones that exist but the balcony ones with only room for a chair are same price. My friends weren't even given them to start with, just as well they all knew what the others had paid & had a valid argument. There are no staff in the hotel after 9pm until am, we had paid all out account when we arrived but had to leave key early am when no staff present. When I got home that night I checked my credit card & the hotel had charged me another almost £400 which I had to email them about, it was well into the next day before I got a response but they did admit it was a mistake & refunded. Made a stressful end to a lovely holiday in Lido

A very good reasonable hotel.
This is just the right hotel for location and value. The continental breakfast was superb with the waitress filling the plates of food and drinks all the time. We had a stoppage in the shower, water not going down.Went out for the day, sorted when we got back. The room was cleaned properly every day. If you want a reasonable room, just to sleep without all the extra frills that could cost an arm and a leg we would definitely recommend this one and also go back to it again. The hotel was just a base as we went out all day every day while we were there, but it was a good place to come back to. The staff were friendly and they could speak a little English where we could not speak Italian but we got by. We knew when we booked that it was hotel with no fuss but it served its purpose a clean and pleasant place with a good breakfast and plenty of it for our stay in Italy.

This was my second trip to Venice and I really enjoy staying on Lido as it's very quaint. The hotel was great and we had a very comfortable room for 3 people. Breakfast is definitely nothing special and if you need something good luck finding someone to help you. Check in is at 2 and we arrived at 3 and there was no one there. We had to call someone to let us in and when we finally got inside the hotel there wasn't any staff. There was an envelope with our key and a welcome letter on the desk. Didn't see another person until the next morning who aim assuming is the owner and not very friendly. I would entertain staying there again but will probably go back to the hotel I stayed at last year.

Loved staying in Lido
Venice is very expensive. The Villa Edera was perfect for us. Walking distance to the ferry, quiet neighborhood, proximity to a supermarket and several restaurants, cafes and gelaterias. The staff was attentive, the room was nice with a lovely balcony, the bathroom was small but it worked. The breakfast was good with cold cuts, cheeses, breads, cereals, fruit, etc., etc. Overall, we were very satisfied. Definitely a great value. We would return, that's for sure.

OK could be better
Very frustrating experience at this hotel. Arrived at 9:30 pm after taking train from Milan to find that the property has an electronic gate and staff go home at 9pm. We stood there for quite sometime and if it wasn't for some guests coming back in we would have been stranded outside for the night. Informed the staff on several occasions that my AC wasn't working properly and no one ever came to look at it. Plus the place is so tiny and walls are thin so if you're not an early riser be careful the cleaning lady's vacuum will wake you.

This hotel met our needs perfectly. A 5-minute walk from the boat dock in Lido, it was a nightly respite from our daily excursions in Venice. The room was charming, clean, & comfortable. The breakfast was adequate. Staff was professional & courteous.

Quiet, romantic bijout break
Very convenient from Actv water bus (local service) and close to restaurants and bars, whilst being far enough back from main street not to be disturbed by them. NOT miles and miles of hiking with suitcases, like that experienced by those poor things staying on the main Venetian island. Very glad we chose Lido! Our balcony was lovely and we spent evenings drinking wine and soaking up the quiet street atmosphere. Rooms are quite small and bathrooms very much so because of the Italian love of the bidet! But were usable and clean. Reception staff were absolutely lovely and spoke excellent English. Only set back was breakfast waitress. She was surly and grumpy and had a very poor attitude. We regularly had to ask for more coffee / bread/ milk etc and she fetched them, but with much eye rolling and banging around - unless you were Italian in which case she was all smiles and nothing was too much trouble.

Nice staff and breakfast
There was not much room in the bathroom to move around. There was barely enough room to walk between the toilet, shower and bidet. The shower was hard to get in and out of, with only a small corner opening up. The lady at the desk was nice, giving us free wifi when it states you need to pay. Breakfast was nice also.

Couple travelling for pleasure. Honest review.
Hotel Villa Edera is decorated in such a way as to promote the artistic side of Venice, with artistic flourishes adorning the walls, ceilings and doors. However the initial thrill quickly dissipates. The staff are friendly enough, but a little distant at times, and at a completely different hotel at others. Namely 9pm until 7am, during which time there is no staff present at the hotel. Any problems, refer to a sister hotel located elsewhere on the island. Outside these hours, guests have to enter/leave the hotel via a swipe card system. The rooms, or at least the one we were allocated, are not of generous proportions, and our room on the ground floor can only be described as noisy. If booking a room at this hotel, DO NOT ACCEPT A ROOM ON THE GROUND FLOOR! The hotel's delivery and refuse system appears to use the path directly outside the ground floor bedroom windows. The noise from 07:00 is reminiscent of metal beer barrels been wheeled into a pub cellar. There is only one, small wardrobe in the room, a dressing table dominated by a TV set, bedside cabinets and a queen sized bed. A small minibar took up space in the wardrobe, along with a broken safe. The air-conditioning did not work. The only course of action was to open the window, and suffer the noise. However, the bath rooms are clean and modern and well equipped. Rooms are serviced daily. A continental breakfast is included, which was very satisfactory. Over-all, I would recommend finding somewhere else to stay.

Could do better.
This hotel is adequate but did not live up expectations. The rooms were cramped; the breakfasts not very interesting and, sadly, I found the place a little unwelcoming. I left my shoes there by mistake. I emailed to ask if they were there.... And was told they did not find my glass! I emailed back but got no reply. Disappointing.

Perfect Location
Lido is a great place to stay when visiting venice. You get to do the Vaporetto every day which is a great way of seeing the place. The Hotel itself is in a great location, just a 2 minute walk from the Lido Vaporetto terminal. From here you can get the short trip into Venice just fine, along with other routes. You pay the tax on arrival which i think was 2.4 euro each per night. You are given the key, and a card to open the gates and doors if you return after 10pm. The rooms are basic, but clean and maintained ok. The bathroom is clean and as expected. Beds are comfy and we had a great night sleep every night! There are no mosquito nets which i think is common, however despite being bitten outside (and they bloody hurt) the room was mozzy free. Security seemed ok with the shutters etc so we didnt need the safe. Breakfast was good - Buffet of Croissant (chocolate and apricot) bread rolls etc all done fresh. Cereals, Toast, Eggs, Cheese, Salami, Jam, Yoghurt, Coffee and Juice. Great for the price which is reflected in the rating. Would definitely recommend

Small hotel on the Lido
Have stayed here several times before. Love staying on the Lido, a vaporetto ride with a wonderful persepective of San Marco square. The hotel is a few short blocks from the vaporetto stop. Mostly locals live here and its nice to see people other than tourists. There are cars and buses on the island. Less costly than other locations
