Top Venice Hotel Reviews

Crowne Plaza Venice East by IHG

8/10 Good

"The overall property was excellent. The room was clean. The staff were helpful. We liked the shuttle service. However, we were unable to adjusted the temperature in our room. It was set at 31 Celsius, which was about 94 Fahrenheit. I couldn’t sleep because it was too warm. Luckily we were only staying there one night."

Hotel Montecarlo

10/10 Excellent

"We love this hotel."

Unahotels Ala Venezia - Adults Only

8/10 Good

"The front desk lack the warmth that most hotels showed. Breakfast was not included and the amenity was written by a lawyer , if you know what I mean."

Venezia Palazzo Barocci

8/10 Good

"Our room was perfect the view we had was amazing along with our balcony. However I feel if you are a guest at the hotel would should have had access to the roof top area without charge."

Palazzo San Luca

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were particularly helpful with recommendations on how to get to the hotel and the station and good restaurants. I also really appreciated that they held our luggage before check in and after check out. Would come back!"

Hotel Rialto

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms are small on the interior it must ask this information at the front desk or get a Canal view which seem to be bigger. Stuff was very kind and helpful we stayed three days and it was very pleasant other than upon arrival we had a tiny room in seven suitcases that didn't fit so we changed rooms it was a little bit bigger and helped a lot. The funny thing is the decor in some of the Halls old dolls elsewhere a little creepy. Front desk staff and manager or great as well as the bellman very helpful and kind. I would recommend this for the value and location. Oh and they served a full breakfast croissants were very very good. The eggs were always scrambled and a little undercooked for my taste other than that everything was great."

Hotel Plaza Venice

8/10 Good

"Nice rooms. Located very close to the Trian station and why I booked this location. However, the location of the hotel is in a run down area of the city. Lots of homeless. Dirty streets. Didn't feel too safe at night walking around. There is a Chinese restaurant nearby that was fantastic. I would book the location again due to the location right across from the train station. We took that to Venice island and to Florence. Parking is a block away and wasn't really guarded. Be careful walking from that location at night."
