We had a wonderful stay at the Gardena Hotel in Venice.
The location of the hotel was perfect, as it was a short easy walk from the train station (no need for a water taxi).
From the moment we arrived, we were greeted warmly. Our room was upgraded to a room with a view of the canal and available upon an early check-in, which allowed us to begin our sightseeing right away!
This hotel is a little gem! The lobby and public areas are beautifully decorated. The room was spacious, decorated perfectly for Venice and immaculate with a beautiful marble bathroom and lots of lovely toiletries. My only "criticism" would be that there is carpeting in the bedroom. If you don't mind that, it's 5 stars all the way!
A delicious breakfast buffet is included with the room which was another nice perk to staying here!
Grazie Mille to the wonderful and professional staff Hotel Gardena! We look forward to returning soon!
