Crowne Plaza Venice East by IHG

Crowne Plaza Venice East by IHG

8/10 Good
"Property is in a small town about 15 minutes from Venice airport. I didn't find much to do in the town. Hotel has a nice bar with food, a sit-down restaurant, and a buffet breakfast for purchase that was well worth the 12 Euros per person. Room was comfortable with a large King-sized bed, 2 chairs and a table to play games, a TV of 99% Italian channels, a comfortable bathroom with a bidet. Overall acceptable for a one-night stay. Transportation on a free airport shuttle work well in both directions. I would stay here again."

"The Hotel Bella Venezia is perfect for a trip to Venice. The location is ideal as it is midway between Rialto and San Marco. All the staff were very pleasant, helpful and welcoming. I had a wonderful corner room which had four windows and an excellent view of the canal below. I would be very happy to return."
