Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel felt like a Venetian dream with a beautiful view of the garden and canal from my massive room. However, there was a leak in the toilet chair, and the room was not soundproof. The location was great for exploring Venice with nice bars and restaurants nearby, but the courtyard was overrun with pigeons during breakfast.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were fabulous with high ceilings, dark wood, and big curtains, offering views of the canal and the garden. The service was exceptional, with extremely helpful and friendly staff always ready to assist. The location was excellent, within easy reach of major landmarks and transportation hubs. The dining experience was delicious with a great selection of dishes. Overall, a lovely hotel with great value for money.
The hotel had a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were comfortable and met our needs, but they felt damp, musty, and needed updating. The staff was friendly and welcoming at times but seemed clueless and uninterested in customer service at others. The location was great for being central yet quiet, but the dining options were limited and disappointing.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room was spacious, but it had a musty smell and dated bedding. The staff was accommodating and friendly, which enhanced my overall enjoyment. The location was great, close to the bus station and peaceful. However, the dining options were limited during breakfast.
The hotel offers stunning views of the canal and garden from the fabulous, spacious rooms with high ceilings and dark wood décor. The service is extremely helpful and friendly, although there was a minor issue with a missing door. The location is excellent, with easy access to tourist attractions and a variety of dining options. The dining experience is good but could use more hot food choices. Overall, a great stay with a few minor drawbacks.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room was beautiful, spacious, and spotlessly clean with a lovely window overlooking a quiet canal and a picturesque small bridge. The service was top-notch, with staff speaking great English and being very friendly and helpful. The location was perfect, near the bus station and in a quieter area away from the tourist crowds. The dining experience, while all right, could have been more imaginative. Overall, a great value for money stay.
The hotel offers a cozy stay with rooms that retain an original feel but are a little tired in decoration. The small size adds a lovely touch, although it might be considered small for longer stays. The service is top-notch, with very friendly and helpful staff offering concierge services. The location is ideal, just a short walk from the bus station, making it convenient for exploring Venice. The dining experience could be improved by offering more food options, but overall, the hotel provides a pleasant stay.
I found the hotel to have a charming courtyard where breakfast is served, and my room had a cozy feel with timber beams and a high ceiling, perfectly blending with the area's character. The stay was extremely peaceful, but the only downside was the clueless and uninterested staff. Nonetheless, Luca was exceptional in providing great tour recommendations. The location was excellent, close to the rail and bus stations, making it convenient to explore the city. The dining experience was acceptable, with repetitive options and the need to replenish the buffet frequently.
