Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is perfectly situated between San Marco and the Rialto, making it a great spot for exploring Venice. The rooms, while beautiful, were on the small side, but the romantic ambiance made up for it. The service was lacking friendliness and professionalism at times, but the location and dining options were impressive.
My stay at the hotel was truly a mix of comfort and style. The rooms had a distinct Venetian touch with high-quality furnishings that made me feel really comfortable. However, the bed was a bit smaller than expected. The service was a highlight, from the helpful housekeepers to the friendly front desk staff and the gentleman who assisted with our luggage. The location was super convenient, allowing easy access to all the major attractions. The dining experience, while delicious, was a bit pricey at 25 Euros per person. Overall, a great value for money stay with a few minor drawbacks.
The triple room was beautiful and spacious with a great bathroom, always cleaned immaculately. However, the room felt outdated, smelly, and not in good condition. The service, especially from the hotel manager who assisted us in getting to Murano and Burano islands, was not nice, a bit grumpy, and demanded unnecessary paperwork. The location between St Mark's Square and the Rialto Bridge was amazing, but the noise from delivery boats and glass smashing was disruptive. The breakfast had a good selection, and we dined at the hotel a few times despite some supply issues. The facilities were overall satisfactory.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location was perfect for sightseeing, and the service was exceptional with helpful staff. Unfortunately, the room was incredibly tiny, and the dining options were limited with overpriced breakfast.
The hotel location was fantastic, central between St Mark's Square and Rialto Bridge, making it a stone's throw to San Marco's and right in the middle of a great shopping and restaurant district. The rooms, although tiny, were beautifully decorated, but staying for more than a night might feel cramped. The service offered levels of friendliness but encountered an issue with check-out time. The dining experience was good but basic, with breakfast being cleared rather noisily by 10:30. The facilities were satisfactory overall.
The hotel is centrally located, spotless, very comfortable, and with high-tech amenities. The staff is super friendly and helpful, making my stay enjoyable. The dining experience, although not perfect, offered delicious options. The hotel facilities were well-maintained.
The hotel was a warm and very comfortable refuge from the at times busy and rainy streets. However, the rooms were not ready at the stated check-in time and lacked amenities like irons, which are usually standard in other hotels. Additionally, guests had to pay for the laundry service, which was more expensive compared to similar hotels during the trip.
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms, while not the cleanest compared to other European hotels I have visited, were ready and provided a nice view of one of the canals. The service had its ups and downs, with some staff members being kind enough to arrange a room change for a better view, but others were a bit rude during breakfast. The location was ideal, being very close to St Mark's Square and surrounded by lively restaurants and shops. The dining experience was average, with a buffet that had limited choices. However, the hotel facilities were adequate for a comfortable stay.
The hotel was a bit different from the pictures shown, had some noise issues but the staff was caring and friendly. The location was excellent between Piazza San Marco and Rialto bridge, offering a great opportunity to explore. The dining experience was extensive, and the hotel is cool after a long day of walking.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious, beautifully decorated, and had fantastic views of the surrounding area. The convenient amenities like bedside charging ports and coat hooks made the stay even more enjoyable. However, the dining options were a bit limited in terms of choices.
