Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers small but spacious enough rooms with a great view to all the sights without the 'over inflated price tag'. The service is delightful, with smiling, helpful, and friendly staff. The location is perfect, just steps from St Marks and all major tourist attractions. The dining is self-service continental with a good selection, albeit a bit pricey. The facilities are well-maintained, and the overall experience provides good value for money.
Overlooking the grand canal, the hotel offers basic yet comfortable rooms that are clean and quiet, all at a reasonable rate. The service provided was incredibly helpful and among the most friendly and helpful I have encountered in many years of travel. Located on the bustling Riva degli Schiavoni, the hotel boasts a fantastic view of the lagoon and is ideal for exploring Venice. Dining was above average with a variety of European food options available. Overall, a great value for the money with some minor drawbacks.
The hotel had rooms that were incredibly hot and dim, offering little value for money. A view of the lagoon would have been a better bet. On the bright side, the service went above and beyond, providing slow food that was local, sustainable, and delicious. The location worked well for us as first-time visitors to Venice, being just steps from St Mark's and major tourist attractions. The dining experience was fairly basic, but the freshest fish was a standout. Overall, the facilities were satisfactory.
I was on the top floor without the lagoon view but had a wonderful view of the rooftops of Venice, which was delightful. The rooms are very comfortable, although not all of them offer a lagoon view as some are located at the back of the hotel. The price was reasonable for the location, but it was pricier than their standard rooms.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The rooms were very comfortable, very clean, and had all the facilities I needed. They might have had older furniture, but they were still clean and cozy. The views of the water with bustling boat activity and daily cruise ship arrivals and departures were simply breathtaking. The service was top-notch, with the staff being very accommodating and helpful, especially with directions. The location was perfect, just behind the vaporetto station and very close to all the attractions. The dining experience was very good, and the breakfast was a great start to my day. The facilities were fantastic, offering everything I needed for a comfortable stay.
The hotel offers wonderful views of the lagoon and San Giorgio with basic yet comfortable rooms. The service was excellent, especially with personalized attention from Max. The location is superb, centrally located near major attractions. The dining experience had unforgettable views but varied in quality. Overall, a charming stay with a few minor improvements needed.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were decent considering I needed a good bed for someone with arthritis, but the shower lacked a thermostat. The view of the lagoon from my room with double glazed windows was a plus, but having two single beds put together instead of a double was a bit disappointing.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were small but had a decent view of the water. They were not luxurious, but still cozy enough for a comfortable stay. The service was exceptional, with friendly and helpful staff, particularly Elvio at the front desk. The location was fantastic, being close to major attractions like St Mark's Basilica and overlooking the main waterway. The dining experience, while offering a good variety, had some inconsistencies in quality. The facilities were adequate and met my needs during the stay.
I couldn't have asked for a better spot in Venice! The rooms were comfy and tidy, plus the staff was incredibly welcoming. The dining options were a bit basic, but the view made up for it. The facilities were top-notch, though Wi-Fi had an extra charge, which was a bummer.
