Venice is one of those complicated cities to navigate so it's hard to optimize for the "best location". It was a bit of a long walk and lots of stairs from the train station and bus terminal. Even if you take a vaporetto it's a winding walk through the streets---only a taxi could get you conveniently to this hotel. But it's in a pleasant neighborhood that's pretty chill and about equidistant from most of the things you want to do. Gondola rides are right around the corner. It's about a 40 minute walk to Piazza San Marco, or a 15 minute vaporetto. Staff was helpful. The downstairs bar is a good place to get a quiet drink. There's a grocery right next to the hotel too.

Very clean room and genuinely friendly staff. It’s a bit of a walk to the main tourist attractions, which we actually appreciated as we could explore local restaurants.

Absolutely stunning place to stay. Brilliant location for bus from airport also for train station for day trips to Florence or Verona. 15 to 20 min walk to St Marks square.

Charming boutique hotel in a fun residential neighborhood walking distance to many restaurants, museums, and churches. Our room was very clean, quiet, with a comfortable bed and ample room. Plenty of closet space, a minibar, and bathroom with toiletries. The daily breakfast was delicious, and the hotel artfully decorated. Staff were very hospitable. Highly recommended

Great experience

Room and hotel lovely. Would have been nice if the water and coffee were topped up each day in the room.

I booked a two-bedroom apartment through Expedia, but what was not made clear is that these apartments are not actually part of the hotel itself. Ours was located externally, down a narrow alleyway beside the hotel, and did not feel like part of the main property at all. It also did not appear to come with the advertised four-star facilities, and there was no housekeeping. Overall, it felt very misleading. I was travelling alone with my three young children and we arrived late. In the apartment, every time a light was switched on or off, the electrical consumer unit made a very loud clunking noise. Reception told me this was “normal,” but I have travelled extensively and have never experienced anything like it before. Given that the apartment was up steep stairs and had no obvious fire escape, I felt extremely uncomfortable and asked to move. The hotel’s proposed solution was completely unacceptable: they suggested splitting me and my children across two different floors. My children are 11, 8, and 3, so that was never an option. The next morning, after a lengthy complaint, I was eventually shown a room inside the hotel. I was told it would accommodate all four of us, but when we moved in, it only had three beds, leaving my 11-year-old daughter offering to sleep on the floor. This was despite the fact that we were paying close to £400 per night for the apartment. To make matters worse, when I explained that I was unhappy with this, the manager became confrontational rathe

Lovely, clean and spacious room. Great breakfast. Very attentive and polite staff. Great location with all the main attractions within easy walking distance. Would very happily use Hotel Aquarius again.

Room and the bathroom was very spacious. Staff was very prompt and helpful when we had issue with the room safe. Also, the location was perfect - close to the train station and San Marco Square.

We had a pleasant stay overall. The staff was very friendly and helpful, which made a big difference and added to the experience. The room itself was decent and clean. While it wasn’t spotless, it was definitely clean enough and comfortable for our stay. A solid option if you’re looking for a welcoming place in Venice.

Amazing hotel, you basically pay for what you pay for. The morning breakfast was amazing, the room was clean and well decorated with murano glass figures. The location just a walk from one of the stops of water bus. The plaza where is located had some good places to eat. The staff recommended Taverna Capitan Uncino, the food was amazing, decently priced, and service was great.

Clean room. Great water pressure. Excellent layout with the smaller bed in a separate area.

EVERYTHING WAS AMAZING! I RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO ANYONE!!

We were given the room right behind the service desk on the first floor. There was a party going on in the courtyard and we could hear a lot of noise. We were too tired at that point to get up and say anything. Overall, it was a nice place other than the constant noise that night coming from within the hotel.

clean room, great breakfasts, helpful staff, well located.

The hotel is in an amazing area. You feel part of the local community. The restaurants all within a few steps are incredible. The staff at the hotel were not only friendly but assisted with “anything” we needed. They went over and above. I would stay here on our next visit!

The room was vertical y small. It should have 2 chairs. I only had one stool, no chairs. Good breakfasts!

Excellent hotel for a Venice visit.

excellent choice, the hotel looks like brand new, convenient location at a beautiful plazza, staff is super nice grest food

Property itself is nice for Venice. Expensive compared to most cities for what you get but is expected for the location. My biggest issues were regarding the staff and service. Our train was delayed and arrived late. The front desk person was very cold and rude. I asked if I could purchase a bottle of water somewhere and he just said no. You don’t have a way for a guest to get a bottle of water after a long day traveling? On our way home we got a water taxi because it was raining. I asked multiple times to make sure they take card because I didn’t have much cash on me. Of course the water taxi guy says his card machine doesn’t work when we get to the station. Venice is a beautiful place but just be prepared to get scammed anywhere you go.
