Dos días visitando Venecia en familia
Pros:

Todo en general. Estar a tres paradas en vaporetto de la Plaza de San Marcos. Zona muy tranquila, bien comunicada.
Desayuno fantástico! Habitación suite grande y espaciosa para dos adultos y dos niños. Cama grande de matrimonio y sofá cama también grande y cómodo.
La limpieza de las instalaciones del hotel y la amabilidad del personal son puntos a destacar.
Es la segunda vez que nos hospedamos en este hotel y siempre ha sido un verdadero acierto.
Totalmente recomendable.

Cons:

Quizás y por poner una pega que para nosotros no fue ningún problema es que en la zona donde está ubicado el hotel abundan árboles donde proliferan las cigarras con su intenso y reconocible canto sobretodo en los meses de verano. Desde la habitación se podían escuchar pero no es un ruido que te impida el descanso.

Oasis by the sea
Pros:

We were on a tour so the hotel was specified for us, not that I’m complaining.
Hotel Indigo Venice Sant Elena was a very decent offering, a short boat ride away from the Venetian mainland, which is where you’ll arrive by land, and St Marks Square where all the action is.
The hotel itself is nestled within a residential area a fair (but doable) stroll away from St Marks Square, not that we attempted the walk - just catch the public ferry from the nearby terminus.
Our room, which was on the ground floor and adjacent to the garden, was modern and well appointed while maintaining that quaint European vibe we all cherish. Buffet breakfast was excellent.
Would recommend.

Average at best
Pros:

We are regulars at Hotel Indigo around the World. This was not up to their usual standard.

1. Welcome was poor. Reception staff at check in ignored us for a minute as were busy talking to each other.
2, Room was ready early which was welcome
3. Room was dark with poor lighting. Four downlighters and a couple of wall lights that made it very gloomy.
4. No coffee machine, just cheap instant sachets. Quite a shock really.
5. No ironing board or iron in the room.
6. Bed was crammed into a tight space meaning there was hardly any room down either side. Pillows were tired and thin.
7. No decent shower, basically a bath with a handheld head fastened to the wall.
8. Breakfast was okay but lacking in a decent fruit selection and nothing was freshly cooked.

Overall, we weren’t overly impressed and won’t be returning.

Schönes Hotel in einer ruhigen Umgebung - sehr zu empfehlen
Pros:

Sehr schönes Hotel in einer ruhigen Gegend, das Personal ist nett und hilfsbereit. Der Garden lädt zum Verweilen ein. Beim nächsten Aufenthalt in Venedig werden wir das Hotel wieder nehmen.

A lovely hotel in the nicest part of Venice
Pros:

This is a lovely hotel situated in the quiet, calm area of Sant'Elena. It is very close to the Biennale Gardens and is about 100m from the last vaporetto stop on the main part of Venice. The walk along the shore to Saint Mark's Square, about 2 km away, is really beautiful.

The hotel is very clean. The bed, including the pillows, was very comfortable. The buffet breakfast had a range of hot and cold choices. Breakfast and evening meals could be taken either inside or in the enclosed garden. The staff were efficient and very friendly.

If you are seeking a calm place to stay in Venice, I would have no hesitation recommending this hotel and I hope to return to it again, myself.

Cons:

I can't think of anything negative that would prevent me returning to this hotel.
