Note: this hotel is not on the main isle of Venice. It's on Ludo Island, which is close to Venice, but not on the main island. We did not know this, and it took an hour and a half by waterbus to get from the train station to Lido while lugging all our bags, etc. And honestly, it takes a while to get to it from where all the big things are on Venice, so you spend more time travelling because your hotel is further out. Luckily, the hotel is just across from the waterbus station, and the bed was pretty comfy, but if we'd known it was going to be so far removed from everything we'd be doing, we wouldn't have booked on Lido. You probably pay more to be on Venice itself, but it's likely worth it. The waterbus "system" is a disaster to navigate, so being further out really does hinder you. the hotel was okay. The breakfast was okay, but not as good as other hotels we stayed at in Italy. But we likely would not stay here again, given everything we know now.

Like everything in Venice, things haven't changed in decades, so don't be surprised if the room looks like your grandmas 1950's parlor. But having said that, the location right within sight of the public transit dock is incredibly convenient, and the breakfast buffet was amazing and I'd stay here again because of that alone. Eggs, sausage, bacon, coffee, and croissants so fresh they just came out of the oven some mornings. Easy walk to some great restaurants and the beach. Even the church bell nearby has charm. (Don't worry, it doesn't ring all night.)

Front desk was kind of rude, and didn’t seem to care. Dated hotel. The breakfast that was included wasn’t very good, but the restaurant staff was accommodating and hustled. I felt that maybe because I booked on Hotels.com and was American, that I got treated badly. View on Venice was great! Location was great.

Excellent location for the price, staff very friendly the bar is amazing, service is excellent.

Na

It was really amazinf

Location was excellent Staff and service excellent Breakfast excellent, Best crossants and pasteries Room was comfortable, but carpet dated and a little worn

Very frustrated by lack of response from property when we messaged regarding questions about parking. It was identified that parking was available at the property....upon messaging we found out it was two spaces located blocks away. When we tried to book a spot/inquire where it was located we received no response. Given we had no information we had to return our car days early as we weren't sure we could secure any parking. Disappointing experience

Lovely stay! Can’t wait to return. Perfect location

Very clean, quiet, safe and friendly stuff

Initially I thought I had messed up as I didn’t book a hotel in Venice, yes I know now that this is a small island about 20 mins away from the hustle and bustle when I realized it was to late to change and let me tell you genuinely BEST mistake I’ve ever made. This hotel is so beautiful, it’s in a great place and you are able to easily travel between here and the main tourist parts of Venice. I really needn’t of worried. 10/10 for everything apart from the mattress in the room my side of the bed was a little lumpy but I dealt with it.

Wonderful

Our stay was really nice! The hotel is very charming. The area of Lido is a bit calmer than Venice. Also, the hotel is very close to the ferry port

A lovely hotel in a fantastic location. Staff so friendly and accommodating. Room was basic but clean and comfortable with great air conditioning. Breakfast great with lots of choice. Highly recommend this place. Lido is a great location and transport is superb to Venice city & other islands.

Walls were thin as we could hear the people in the next room

Great hotel, in the traditional, grandiose style, which couldn’t be more convenient for the water bus stops…. right across the road. Lots of places to eat and drink around, including the restaurant and gelateria in the hotel itself. Plus the best view of Venice you’re likely to get from the rooms. Great place. Hope to stay longer next time…. though I will bring a kettle for the room, next time!

Great hotel!!

Great location and truly excellent staff. It really is the perfect spot and we had a wonderful time. The only issue [room 106] was the noise from the bar opposite until 3am each night. Oh and the shower flooding the bathroom floor each time due to 30cm shower screen.

Super convenient spot, right across from the vaporetto/water bus stop. Small rooms were not quiet, but were comfortable and clean. Breakfast was tasty with eggs, breads, sweets, cheeses, yogurt, fruit, and cereals. Coffee/tea were included. Cappuccino was a modest plus up.

The hotel was perfectly located clean and very well serviced. Very friendly with helpful staff. Only issue was the inability to control temperature eirher hot or cool.
