Riva del Vin Boutique Hotel
5/5 Excellent
"The hotel was right across from the main island, you cross the Rialto bridge to get there. The staff was super friendly and helpful. I had to go on the Murano tour but check in happened during that time. So they let me leave my bags with them. Afterwards, the front desk gentleman helped me get a water taxi and even helped me carry my bags and waited with me for the taxi. "

Hotel Montecarlo
5/5 Excellent
"Very good property in excellent location. Rooms were very clean. AC super cold in June heat! Staff at front desk were polite and were helpful. Nice modern bathrooms. Close to everything. Only 2 drawbacks. Breakfast buffet is fair. Not bad but coulda been better. There is one woman working in the buffet who was mean and rude. Another named Lilly was very nice. The other issue is the rooms on morning sun side could use darkening shades as it’s like waking up to a nuclear bomb flash! :) Would definitely stay here again!"
