Top Venice Hotel Reviews

Hotel Montecarlo

Hotel Montecarlo

10/10 Excellent
"We had a great stay at this hotel in Venice. Darío, the front desk staff member who checked us in, was exceptionally kind and helpful, giving us excellent tips to explore the city. The rest of the clerical staff was also very friendly and attentive throughout our stay. The atmosphere was calm, and the décor had a beautiful Venetian vintage style that made the place feel charming and authentic. The room was comfortable and the location very convenient. Highly recommended, especially thanks to the outstanding service. Also we gastes an excelente breakfast."

Hotel Rialto

Hotel Rialto

10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful place right on the Grand Canal. Right at the Rialto Bridge. Had an elevator and air conditioning. The breakfast buffet had wonderful selections. Very close to water taxi stop for to or from Airport. Great restaurant right there as well. And some shopping stores. Gondola ride available right out in front of the hotel. Staff very friendly. Even took our luggage to our room. Also let us do luggage storage until our room was ready. We got there early. Ate at the restaurant. Room was ready shortly after. I would suggest doing the water transfer from off of the Get Your Guide App. Our friends had to wait quite awhile at the airport for local water taxi. Highly recommend. Would definitely stay here again. Loved the hotel decor. You won’t be disappointed."

"The description on the advert was exactly the same, not misleading. The shuttle was very helpful if u are getting in and out of venezia, cost €2.50 each way It is also accessible via public transport €1.50 each way, just need to walk 15 minutes to and from public transport Restaurant and supermarket available Downside: internet would turn on and off, dont expect for your room to be cleaned daily Overall it was a nice stay and i will difinitely recommend"

Amadeus Hotel

Amadeus Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed for 3 nights whilst visiting Venice. The hotel is in the district adjacent to the railway station. Lots of local restaurants and bars to frequent with most offering better prices than the over priced San Marco area. A short walk to the water taxi locations, if you feel energetic its around a 30 minute walk to San Marco. The hotel offered clean basic accommodation, rooms had the essentials, breakfast was quite good and the staff pleasant. The only downside is the awful wifi whilst in the rooms. We had 3 rooms and all were the same. Wifi in the downstairs reception / public areas was good. For a short stay this hotel is ideal for those not demanding 5* luxury."
