Nice hotel, close to the beach, very cosy-looking from the outside, a beautiful building. The floor in the room, however, was dirty, there were foreign women hairs in the towels, at a different length as compared to the guest’s hair length. The temperature in the room was extremely low and it was impossible to fix it on your own by manipulating the air-conditioning. As a whole, it wasn’t a good experience.

The location is rather convenient, 15 min. walk to Lido SME vaporetto stop, which is also reachable by frequently running bus. From SME in 30 minutes you can reach San Marco, Piazzale Roma bus terminal and other main locations. The neighborhood is quite and picturesque, with Festival Palace nearby. The single room is VERY small, with basic furniture and without table, while on other hand there are some unusable pieces of antique furniture... Bathroom is convenient, with enough light and space. Towels are changed, if you leave them on the floor, otherwise just folded, even if they are obviously dirty. Some towels already from beginning had stains and holes... The conditioning system is weird, so anyhow the window has to be left open for more fresh air. The wi-fi is constantly malfunctioning, unfortunately. Overall - for an extremely expensive city this is a reasonably prised choise, if you're not to busy on schedule and allow a certain time for travel.

Good location in Lido. Quiet, 1 min from beach, 15 mins walk to restaurants and bars. Classic Venetian decor but somewhat tired. Breakfast good but spoiled by awful coffee. Good room size, large en-suite. Hard bed and flat pillows.

Nice hotel in the Lido a quiet area of Venice.
Enjoyed the proximity to old Venice. Enjoyed the water taxi rides to the various areas of Venice and the ride to the airport by the water bus. Gondola ride through the crowded canals of Venice was also a unique experience. Would stay there again in the future.

continental breakfast included?
my expedia itinerary said "continental breakfast included," When I got there, they said it wasn't. I called expedia and they called the hotel are were told that "continental breakfast included" didn't mean they didn't charge for it. I'd stayed at this hotel 4 or 5 years ago and was happy. This time the staff was not particularly friendly. Nothing terrible, just not ideal. The hotel is off the beaten path about a 15 minute walk from the vaporetta stop. I like being in a quiet location, and being near the beach is nice.

Dear Sis, We are very surpirsed of your revew ,in all our sities the breakfast is not included and Expedia know that . I understand you very well .We call Expedia again and we told them for the 10 th times that breakfast is not included. By the way as you are our guest we next time include buffet breakfast in your booking as a refund of this misunderstanding. Best REgards The Management

Quiet and Convenient, Close to the Beach
A wonderful beach getaway. Location was great for beach access and an easy walk to main shops and cafes. Bed was HARD, and two single mattresses pushed together, but otherwise well worth the price. The gentleman at the desk on check in was wonderful and room was ready early. Did not eat breakfast at the hotel, but from the buffet it looked tempting.

Some would say 'character', I would say old & damp
The hotel is well located 5 minutes from beach and 20 min walk from ferry. Strangest hotel I have ever stayed at. Staff were very helpful and overall room was clean. However, hotel is very old and tired. Downstairs decor is very dated, corridor outside room had damp marks and mold. Inside the room the wardrobes were wall papered, sockets loose and wires hanging down behind the bathroom mirror. Wifi available but didn't work for longer than a minute without losing coverage. We didn't see any other guests and the hotel had an eerie feel. Can't fault staff who were helpful and allowed us to print off our boarding passes.

The perfect retreat in Venice
This was the nicest hotel we stayed at for the whole of our 2-week trip in Europe (France, Switzerland, Italy and Germany) in which we booked a variety of hotels (all of them good) in this price range. The basics were all up to standard (comfort, cleanliness, service). I read one or two negative reviews of the breakfast; however, we found the generous buffet wich you eat in the hotel's large walled garden very good value. The location and the character of the building and surroundings were perfect: a 1930 villa in a large private garden on the quiet street (Via Lepanto) that runs down the centre of the Lido. The hotel takes you back to a more leisurely and spacious age and is real find - a survival, certainly not a kitsch revival. It is a pleasant ten-minute walk to the Grande Vialle and the Vaporetto pier. As for the Lido generally, unless you really must stay in the historic centre, it is the perfect retreat: an unhurried atmosphere, a more local character, and yet only 15 minutes by vaporetto from San Marco. The Lido with is also worth exploring for its own sake.
