Très bonne situation au coeur de Venise
Pros:

L’hôtel est à 5 minutes à pied de la Place Saint Marc mais dans une rue calme. Le personnel est très agréable et parle très bien français. Le petit déjeuner est copieux et de bonne qualité.

Cons:

Je voyage avec mes deux filles de 14 et 17 ans. J’avais demandé 3 vrais lits. J’ai encore eu droit à un lit d’appoint pliable et inconfortable. Le lit était en plus collé au dur glacial. Aussi, il aurait été appréciable que le petit déjeuner soit servi au delà de 10h

Venise magnifique
Pros:

Très bien placé au centre de Venise.
A 5 mon a pied du pont Rialto et 10min de la place St Marc.
Le petit déjeuner avec du choix.
Personnels accueillant et agréable.

Cons:

Chambre vieillissante, normal beaucoup de passage.
Lit confortable mais structure du lit en acier et il manquait les couvre lit pour donner ce coté vénitien comme sur les photos de l’hôtel.
C’était justement pour ça que nous avions choisis cette hôtel pour se coté authentique que l’on a pas forcément retrouvé dans notre chambre.
Sinon rien a redire, l’hôtel nous sert juste à dormir et c’était très bien.

Great Stay in Castello Area.
Pros:

Great Stay for First Time in Venice.
Hotel is so well located, five minutes walk to either San Marco or Rialto and in the Castello area with lots of canal views, interesting streets and food options.

Hotel is tucked down a side street but just a few steps from a lively street.

24 hour reception , good choice for breakfast,with cappuccino on request and a water machine for topping up water bottles 24/7.

Typical Venetian decor , immaculately clean throughout & excellent value for money. Would highly recommend.
