Top Venice Hotel Reviews

Hotel Bella Venezia

10/10 Excellent

"Staff super helpfull and polite! Breakfasts and room very nice !!"

Unahotels Ala Venezia - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Location was a plus. It was just few steps away from the boats station. Room was very neat and with great AC. Staff were great and helpful. We are very satisfied!"

Crowne Plaza Venice East by IHG

8/10 Good

"Best part is the shuttle to the airport. Our room smelled like a sewer. The entire floor actually smelled so awful. Maybe it's just the first floor. We were too tired to request to be transferred to a different floor."

Hotel Plaza Venice

8/10 Good

"Room was clean and air conditioning was working. The location was right across from the train station and made travel easy,"

Hilton Molino Stucky Venice

8/10 Good

"Great property, we didn't eat there since the whole of Venice was a short boat shuttle away. Two issues, they didn’t honor my Gold HH status and the shuttle is not included, it is only $18 PP per stay so not a big deal. It is a very nice property with a lot of amenities."

Carnival Palace Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The property is modern and clean and the staff is very good. They have a lobby bar that makes great cocktails and was a fun place to gather with our friends at the end of the day. It is not in the middle of the city, but everything was easily walkable within 20 minutes."

Hotel Abbazia

10/10 Excellent

"Fabulous one night stay in a peaceful side street off the grand canal close to station. Perfect location on our family Interrail trip. Huge triple room, with large family bathroom & a bath in double room. Excellent breakfast & we enjoyed the garden, lounge bar area. Totally recommend."

Antico Panada

10/10 Excellent

"A minute from famous attractio … AC works … warm n lovely place"

Ruzzini Palace Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Everything! Outstanding! Can’t wait to go back!"
