Carnival Palace Hotel

Carnival Palace Hotel

8/10 Good
"Hotel was very nice. Staff did their best to help us and are very communicative, even before arrival. Arranged for car and boat transfer from Marco Polo airport that didn’t show up, though hotel staff did try and call who they arranged for us."

Hotel Abbazia

10/10 Excellent
"This hotel is a real find! It’s really lovely both on the inside and outside. The staff was beyond friendly and helpful. Our triple room was spacious $ we appreciated the sliding door that separated the bedroom from the sitting area where the third bed was. Those with mobility issues should know that there are several steps that lead from the lobby to the rest of the hotel. The elevator is small so your party may have to take separate trips up the elevator, which really isn’t a big deal. The breakfast buffet was wonderful with offerings that included a wide variety of pastries, sandwiches, fruit, etc. They were willing to accommodate our early departure by kindly allowing us to pack “to go” breakfasts. The hotel is near the bus and train stations & the vaporetto stop is a short walk away. The hotel is a bit hard to find, as its entrance is down a side street which is more like an alleyway. (You can find that street entrance diagonally across from Ristorante Roma, which is also an excellent place to eat.) My only “complaints” are that there weren’t any luggage racks, so you had to put your dirty luggage on your bed when you needed to access items inside. And despite being a sizable bathroom, there weren’t any hooks for wet towels nor counter space for your toiletries. I’d like to see perhaps a pull-down wall table or even a real table in the bathroom so that you have a place to work when getting ready. Other than that it was wonderful & I’d definitely stay here again!"

"This hotel has very good location. It’s close to all major attractions and water bus stops. The hotel staffs were all very friendly and helpful. The hotel was clean and is beautifully maintained. My only complaint was that the mattress in my room was old and out of shape. It was worn out and sunk in the middle which made the sleep uncomfortable. The breakfast was really good. It had great varieties and all tasted delicious. We were lucky to sit by the window and get to watch gondolas glided through while eating breakfast. The best way to start a morning."

"24hr check in was very helpful when our flight was delayed. Good air conditioning, nice buffet breakfast - mostly continental but even had some beans for beans on toast! 😁 Helpful, friendly staff, great location for getting the shuttle bus from Marco Polo airport (20 mins transfer time), and drops you a 2 minute walk from the hotel. Would stay again."

"The building and decorations are fantastic, the cleaning team wa excellent, the reception team was too cold, I didn't feel welcomed by them. Perhaps was the language barrier. The room we stayed had fried oil and food smell all the time, but it was clean and the A/C was fantastic."
