Venice Hotel Guide - 2 stars Hotels in Venice, Italy

I stayed here for 2 nights in September, the final stop on a 3 city trip to Italy (I was previously in Florence and prior to that, Rome). As other reviewers note, the location of this hotel is amazing, right around the corner from the Piazza San Marco and up a small street from one of the main water taxi stations. It was easily accessible from the main train station and very easy to find (though do ask the hotel for directions from your specific location before you arrive to make your journey easier). The hotel is on a small piazza, above a restaurant, and the front door is right off the main piazza. My room was at the back, not overlooking the street, and was very quiet. The room was very small, as is typical in the heart of Venice, but fully equipped for a short stay. As I was only staying 2 nights, I booked a single room, and I knew there would be a single bed in the room. After travelling up from Rome in the September heat, my little room was a welcome sight and I was very happy to have secured it. I did find the bed quite uncomfortable, especially compared to beds in my rooms in Rome and Florence. The mattress had very little support and I felt like I was going to roll off the bed. But after navigating the crowds of Venice all day and night, I slept well. As with most hotels in Italy and Europe, there is very little sound proofing inside, and I could hear the TV in the next room and loud noises in the hall, including guests who got up at 4 am to check out. I found the sa

Great experience from the moment you booked the hotel ! Clear instructions to get to the hotel via various mode of transportation. Great location, we literally walked to every major attractions and shopping belt. Very warm and helpful staff, from front desk to breakfast etc .. We had a family suite, rooms are big and comfortable.

The location of this hotel is ideal - as it is about a five minute walk from the train station. It is easy to get around in Venice so this hotel worked fine. The room was small - but most are in Italy. Do not expect much from breakfast. We were crammed into a tiny room and given a piece of bread and a croissant. Overall, the stay was average.

Room was very small, sound-proofing leaves something to be desired, and ground level rooms have a foot-path right outside the window, but if you're not planning on spending much time in the hotel (I certainly didn't!) then it's a perfectly decent roof over your head at a good price for Venice. Only 5min walk from the bus station, and only two bridges to lug that suitcase over. St Mark's Square is only 25min walk away once you've learned the route, with plenty of other sights along the way. Breakfast was only the usual "continental" affair (not what an Englishman really wants!) but the staff are friendly and helpful and speak good English. Luggage can be stored in a safe place (in a cupboard behind the reception desk) on your last day. There was no tea/coffee (or anything else) in the room, and the bathroom had only a shower (no bathtub), but neither was a problem for me. The free WiFi worked well.

This is a great little low-budget gem in a perfect location for a few sightseeing-heavy days in Venice. The staff, especially Stefania, were super nice and helpful. The place is small and cute. Its a little noisy at night, but thats really par for the course in Venice.

The hotel staff made our stay just perfect. They were all super nice and ready to help with anything. Absolutely no problems with the room, food, etc either. Also well located right in San Marco, making it easy to hike to several key areas. I'd recommend this place!

A lovely old hotel in a great position, great breakfast. If new & modern is your thing well this hotel is not for you but I guess neither is Venice.

- bathroom too small to sit on toilette. great cappichino

Staff were great and the location is convenient. The rooms and breakfast were good. Just need to update the common toilet and bathing areas.

Great location, no ice available and no elevator. Breakfast was plentiful, room comfortable, small TV, no fridge but for Europe it was great
