This was by far the best hotel experience on my trip to Italy. The location is unbeatable—just a 7-8 minute walk or short transit from Venice train station, with no hills or stairs, making it super easy to navigate with luggage. The room was spacious and bright, easily fitting two 30-inch suitcases without feeling cramped. All amenities were well-stocked: toiletries, slippers, and extras were plentiful and regularly replenished. The bathroom was clean, modern, and spotless. While not in the very heart of the city, it’s perfectly situated for exploring Venice at your own pace—walking distance to major sights, and right across from a bus stop, which made getting around effortless. The staff were warm, friendly, and communicated clearly in English. The only minor downside? The breakfast buffet offered limited options, but you can order a free plate of classics like scrambled eggs or omelets, which is common for Italian hotels. Still, this didn’t take away from the overall fantastic stay. Highly recommend for travelers who value comfort, convenience, and authentic local charm.

The rooms were spotless, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed with attention to detail. Staff were friendly and helpful without being intrusive. Getting here requires a short boat ride, but it’s part of the charm—feels like stepping into a different world. If I ever return to Venice, I’d definitely choose this hotel again. A perfect blend of tranquility, beauty, and authentic Venetian atmosphere. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a unique and peaceful getaway.

While breakfast was modest in size, it still offered a nice variety: fresh juices, homemade pastries, local bread, and a few sweet treats that made the morning start off right.
