Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel is situated in a very quiet area right next to a small canal, providing a peaceful ambiance. The rooms are elegantly decorated with a marble bathroom and a convenient frigo bar, though the small TV lacked English programs. The service, while good for tours and ticket assistance, was marred by a staff member who was ill-mannered in explaining our situation. The dining experience, although included and offering natural cut fries, was satisfactory. Despite these aspects, the hotel's strongest suit is its tranquil location beside a small canal, though it may not be ideal for English-speaking guests due to the limited TV content.
The hotel is in a serene location, nestled beside a small canal in a tranquil corner, offering a quiet retreat. The rooms are spacious and equipped with a good size washroom, but the TV had limited English programs. The service, although initially off-putting, improved after explaining our situation. The hotel is strategically located in a very quiet area near the city center, making it easy to access via Line #1 ferry. The dining experience, while included, mainly focuses on seafood. Overall, the facilities are commendable.
The hotel is located on a small street right next to a calm canal, offering a tranquil stay. The rooms are nicely decorated and provide a comfortable bed, but the small TV lacked English programs. The service was a bit disappointing due to one ill-mannered staff member while providing tour assistance. Despite these drawbacks, the peaceful location next to a Vaporetto stop makes it convenient to reach central Venice. The dining options included healthy dishes, and the facilities were adequate for a pleasant stay.
