Hotel Bella Venezia

10/10 Excellent
"Highly recommend staying here. The location is perfect distance to everything. Staff was incredibly kind and helpful. We were a group of 7 and they helped in setting up private transport to/from the airport, plus transport to the train station when we were catching a 5am train. They even had to-go breakfast boxes prepared for us since we’d be missing the included breakfast that morning. Everything was wonderful!"
