Clean room, excellent service, had air conditioning and great location
It’s a lovely hotel centrally located in walking distance to restaurants. It had a wide variety of breakfast from fresh fruits, juices, breads, and coffee options.
The rooms were a good size for a family of 4. We also had a great view of the mountains in the back and the canal.
Hotel staff were friendly and we had a great 2 night stay.
The hotel and our room was very clean. The hotel did have a very strong scent which was not unpleasant but just a bit too strong. The bar was well stocked but not free like other hotels we stayed in so we did not utilize it much. The location was excellent as it was not as tourist packed yet still very close to the train station where we got off.
Is our 2 time in the hotel, great location, close to de parkings buildings, vaportetto and train station.
The food is nice, the room and customer services amazing!
Good location, and room was very clean, comfortable bed. The front of the hotel had a tendency to smell a bit of sewage but I think that is probably a fairly widespread problem in Venice...
The place is just off the main touristy areas so it is quiet and pleasant. Place is modern, and the food is very good. The room was bright but on the smaller size
Lovely hotel with clean, modern facilities. The bed was very comfortable for a perfect nights sleep. Ideally located close to transport links and easy to walk to the many beautiful sights of Venice.
