Hotel Papadopoli Venezia - MGallery
The hotel's location is absolutely perfect—just a short walk across two bridges from the station, making it super convenient for travelers arriving by train. The first bridge has steps, so dragging a suitcase isn’t ideal, but it’s a small trade-off for such a great spot. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful throughout our stay, going above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The property itself exudes timeless elegance with its classic Venetian charm and beautifully preserved details. What really stood out was how close we were to the water bus stop—getting around major sights by water taxi was effortless and added to the authentic Venice experience. No hassle, no stress, just pure relaxation and convenience.
Al Bailo di Venezia
We stayed here with our family, and overall, the experience was excellent. The hotel is incredibly clean, safe, and every little detail shows thoughtfulness—really made us feel at home. One small suggestion: the AC vent in the room was dusty, so cleaning it or replacing the filter would be a great improvement. Also, since we had elderly guests with us, it would be helpful if guest services were more accessible—having to walk around to check in was a bit challenging. Despite that, the location is fantastic, close to everything, and public transport makes getting around Venice super easy. We truly appreciated the attention to cleanliness and security. Definitely a place we’d recommend and return to.
Hotel Principe
Staying at Hotel Principe was an absolute dream come true. The view from the window overlooks the serene canals of Venice, and waking up to watch the sunrise from the bed was one of those magical moments you don’t forget. The breakfast spread was exceptional—fresh pastries, local cheeses, perfectly brewed coffee, and a variety of wholesome options that made mornings truly special. The location is unbeatable: just a short walk from major sights and well-connected by public transit. It’s rare to find such charm, comfort, and value in one place. I’ll definitely be back, and I highly recommend this hidden gem to anyone looking for an authentic, peaceful Venice experience.
Hotel A la Commedia
The location is absolutely perfect—just a short walk from the train station and only two minutes to a convenient supermarket, which made our stay super easy. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming from the moment we arrived. The bed was wonderfully comfortable, and I slept like a baby. The shower provided strong water pressure and consistent temperature—perfect for a refreshing morning rinse. Breakfast was a highlight: a wide variety of options with fresh, delicious fruits that really made the meal special. Everything about this hotel felt thoughtfully designed for guest comfort and convenience. I’m already planning my return visit—this place truly exceeded my expectations.
The Venice Times Hotel
I highly recommend The Venice Times Hotel—especially if you're visiting Venice during peak season. Located just steps from Venezia S.L. station, the hotel offers a seamless, stress-free arrival without needing to navigate crowded water buses. I stayed in August, when the city was packed with tourists and long lines for water transport made moving around with luggage extremely difficult. Staying here saved me so much time and hassle. The location is perfect—easy access to public transit, quiet yet central, and the staff were incredibly welcoming. Rooms are clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed. It’s rare to find such a convenient, comfortable stay at this level of quality. If you’re planning a trip to Venice, especially in summer, this hotel should be at the top of your list. A truly excellent choice.
The St. Regis Venice
We arrived in Venice early at 6 AM with a flight, and the water taxi took us straight to the hotel dock by 7 AM. I was a bit worried about checking in so early, but the staff were incredibly accommodating and processed our check-in immediately—no issues at all. We originally had planned to stay at Aman, but it was fully booked, so we switched to The St. Regis Venice. Honestly, we couldn’t be happier with that decision. From the moment we stepped onto the private dock, the beauty of the property hit us—elegant architecture, luxurious details, and that unmistakable St. Regis charm. It’s not just a hotel; it’s an experience. The location on the Grand Canal is perfect, and every corner feels like a scene from a movie. If you’re looking for timeless elegance and exceptional service, this is it. Highly recommend—worth every penny.
Hotel Santa Chiara
Staying at Hotel Santa Chiara was a fantastic experience—right next to the train station, just one bridge away, making it incredibly convenient for arrivals and departures. I’m pretty sure it’s the closest hotel on the island to the station, which is a major plus when you’re navigating Venice with luggage. The room itself was clean and well-maintained, with a spotless bathroom and comfortable bedding. The only minor downside was the single-pane windows, which let in some chill during colder nights—but adding an extra blanket easily fixed that. Staff were prompt and helpful; whenever I requested something, it arrived quickly without any hassle. Plus, walking 20 minutes daily to explore nearby attractions wasn’t burdensome at all—Venice is so walkable and scenic that every step feels worth it. Overall, this place offers great value, excellent location, and warm hospitality. Definitely recommend it for travelers who want convenience without compromising on comfort.
Hotel American-Dinesen
Staying at Hotel American-Dinesen in Venice was an absolute highlight of my trip. The location is perfect—just a short walk from the Grand Canal and surrounded by charming local cafes and shops. The room was spotless, with a comfortable bed that made for a restful night's sleep. What truly stood out was the breakfast—fresh, delicious, and varied, with excellent coffee and locally sourced ingredients. The staff were friendly and helpful, always going the extra mile. It’s rare to find such a high level of comfort and service at this price point. If you're visiting Venice, this hotel is a must-book. I’ll definitely be back.

Avani Rio Novo Venice Hotel
We booked a room for three, and the hotel kindly provided a connecting room with two bathrooms—no need to rush or wait for the facilities! It was incredibly convenient, especially when traveling with family or friends. The location is super central, just a short walk from the metro station, making it easy to explore Venice’s main attractions. The room was spacious, clean, and well-designed, offering great value without compromising on comfort or style. Highly recommend this hotel for groups or families looking for a hassle-free stay in Venice.
Palazzo Guardi
The location of Palazzo Guardi is excellent—just a 15-minute walk from Piazzale Roma and literally one minute from Accademia Station, with San Marco Square just a short stroll away. I checked the hotel via Google Street View before arrival, and it was easy to spot. The breakfast was satisfying, the staff were friendly and attentive, and the room was spacious, warm, and comfortable. I especially appreciated the free beverages stocked in the fridge. The only downside is that the hotel is on the third floor, and the elevator is extremely small and slow—be prepared for some patience when going up or down. Despite that, the overall experience was outstanding. I’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend Palazzo Guardi to anyone visiting Venice.
Albergo Cavalletto & Doge Orseolo
Staying at Albergo Cavalletto & Doge Orseolo was a delightful experience. The location is perfect—just a short walk from the main sights, including St. Mark’s Square and the Grand Canal. I found the staff incredibly helpful and friendly; they greeted me warmly and took care of everything, even offering local tips to make my stay more enjoyable. While the hotel has a historic charm with some older furnishings and facilities, it’s well-maintained and spotlessly clean throughout. There’s a genuine sense of character here—walls that tell stories, elegant details, and a quiet elegance that captures the spirit of Venice. It’s not flashy, but that’s part of its appeal. For travelers looking for an authentic, cozy, and convenient base in Venice, this is a fantastic choice.
