Nice hotel, staff were not very friendly, very abrupt and not helpful on the front desk especially to my wife. Room was nice, cleaners were good, view wasn't good at all so check if you want a view otherwise it's the roof and Aircon pipes. Would use again just for the accessibility. Walking distance to the bus stop and tram stop. Really good for vaporetto access. Breakfast was just right. Crowded at 830 onwards so get as early breakfast as you can.

Very close to the train station, just be prepared to carry your bags up and down one of the largest bridges on the island, or pay someone 15 euros to do it for you. Everything is within easy walking distance (at most 1.3 miles).

Old school glamour

Such a lovely start to our honeymoon, arriving direct to the hotel from the airport via vaporetti. The hotel is beautiful, with extremely helpful and friendly staff. After checkout m, we were able to leave our bags with the hotel so that we could explore more of beautiful Venice. Hallways are a little tired, but this didn’t impact our wonderful stay. Would definitely stay again!

Great Staff Great Location. Horrible Room

The location was great. The staff was fantastic. The room was horrible. So small that we couldn't even open our suitcases. Again. The hotel lobby is nice. The staff is AMAZING. The pictures do not really represent the hotel. It's older than the pictures represent. The rooftop area was closed the whole time we were there. The location is great. The room we had was equivalent to the second to last picture on this website. Staff went above and beyond.

Great stay and wonderful location

The hotel and staff are wonderful. Our room overlooked the Grand Canal during Carnival. Very nice. The only minor issue we had was the bed and pillows. Both were very hard, but the room was very lovely and appointed very nicely. Great location across the canal from the train station. Easy to get to everything.
