Hotel Belle Epoque

We like how convenient the location is to train station. Everything is walkable. Breakfast is amazing. Our room is and bathroom is spacious, coming from a cruise ship (we appreciate the space). We love how we were given an ancient key to our room. I love the furnitures and decorations. Feels like we're in Italy.

3 mins from the train station. Breakfast is good. 24 hrs front desk. However, hotel is old ( can’t ask everything).

Very low quality hotel but conveniently located near the Academia bridge.
We were across the street in an unstaffed building. Front door was found open on multiple occasions.
Walls were thin so heard neighbor rooms until late at night. I originally booked another hotel, also Belle in title, near the train station and was given this one at the same rate so I felt it was a bait and switch.

The most horrible and creepy experience staying in this room you cannot even walk around. The bedroom is super small, the bathroom everything was broken holes on the walls. The bathroom is a joke. You can’t not even fit there in overall negative experience. The room has smell, dusty and moldy. We got sick with allergy just staying one night. They also assigned us a different room than the one we booked. If you want to have a nice experience in Venice, stay away from this hotel.

Hotel is in a great area. Staff friendly and hotel clean. However the room was the smallest I have ever seen. The window was also small, looked into an alley with scaffolds and smelled really bad. Room noisy from any foot steps from above. Unfortunately for Venice you must put up with these issues if you want to pay a little less.

The hotel was so bad It was funny... Very faulty towers. Which actually made it quite good. Everything in the room seemed to be broken or held together with duct tape. The elevator was attached to the room wall so whenever someone went up it was like going to space.

I would say this was our most expensive hotel and worst. we had another 2 in Venice and 2 in the dolomites. All of which were lovely and cheaper.

My partner had to leave after one night to catch a train and in the morning got given a breakfast bag which was very nice! This however seemed to confuse the staff and meant for some reason I was turned away from breakfast when I turned up in the morning. I didn't mind I just went and had coffee elsewhere... But they were quite rude and walked away when I was explaining what I thought the confusion was.

Decor is bonkers. Kinda loved it.

Old world charm but not maintained. Good location, good breakfast, nice staff, but we won’t return. There were moldy spots, loose tiles, dirty carpets, water stained walls from prior leaks, no safe in rooms. One room had a safe, but it wasn’t functioning. The hairdryer was taped in place, the paint on the ceiling was peeling in places. When we complained they offered a different room, we changed rooms, but each was barely acceptable. The last room could have been nice ; there was a small balcony, but the TV didn’t work, there was no safe, and the air conditioner didn’t work.

I had a disappointing stay at Bella Epoque Hotel. The room was way too small—more like a cubicle— literally leaving hardly any space to move around. The shower cubicle was minuscule, making it difficult to even wash comfortably. There was no iron provided, and I found the room highly overpriced for its standard.

While the hotel has an elevator, it made a screeching noise every time it was used, which could be heard in my room which was next to the elevator. My room, 210, was right next to the lift, so it was quite noisy. The carpet in the room was worn out and discolored, and the flush didn’t work properly. The air conditioner also had patch work. There was no drinking water provided in the room. This is by far not a 3 star hotel which they claim to be. Vegetarian options for breakfast are very limited, all they offer to vegetarians is corn flakes and fruits.

On the positive side, the hotel is very close to Santa Lucia station.

Overall, the place needs a lot of repairs and updates. I wouldn’t recommend it unless significant improvements are made.

Having read some mixed reviews about this hotel, I came here with some apprehension - but was generally pleased with my overall experience.
First up, the location is very good if you're arriving into Venice by bus or train - it's right beside both and easy to find. We arrived early and were very pleased to get checked in right away (so few hotels do that anymore). The room quality was good as was the bathroom and there was a wall safe - but no instructions. I can usually figure these things out but this one defeated me. Went to call reception for help - but the phone was disconnected.
Came back later and the room was quite warm and went to turn on the A/C - but it was broken. Call reception? Not from a disconnected phone!
Breakfast was reasonable and food selection not bad - though the wait staff will never win prizes for friendliness.
Price by Venice standards was not the worst and, by those same standards, probably good value for money.
Apart from those glitches, our overall stay was reasonably good and I might even return

Room was very dark, it felt dirty, mould on the ceiling and shower doors, put it this way after a great evening I was not looking forward to going back to the room. This hotel needs a lot of TLC, I was not a cheap hotel many other better options. I would not recommend.

Great location if you travel to Venice using ferry, train or bus.

Typical old Venice Hotel. Staff were friendly. Room was good and breakfast was just what we needed

We had a quadruple room which was tiny for four people. The bathroom had holes in the wall, and towel rods were loose. Shower was missing something to prevent leaking and so the bathroom was wet each time we used the shower - been a long time issue because there was mould on the bottom of door frame by leak.
The bead cover and decorative pillows were dirty hadn’t been washed.
The location is amazing and it was quiet for being so central located. Breakfast was good.

Mosquitoes kept us up all night, don't go into the rooms separated from the hotel. Feeling safe now? Its getting hot, turn on the AC, oh wait no, Mosquitoes are coming out of the AC! Did not sleep. Came out to ask to switch rooms, and the security and bellhop guy was asleep at the couch. Went to desk in the morning and they swapped us to a room starting with 100. Book a room starting with 100 you'll thank me.

our air conditioner was broken, we told the person at the front desk he wouldn't believe us, finally he came up to the room and said so sorry but our room windows could be seen from the elevator and he said the only room available was a room with one dbl bed and we had our grandson with us so it was not possible.

Vert good location. Part of the hotel has no lift for first and second floor, not helpful for a 70 years old with luggage.

My 9 year old told me about someone jumping on his bed while I was taking a shower( about 8 pm ) and the next day when I was typing my work in the computer (about 10 am) my paperwork turned 90 degrees and literally was thrown away.. the staff was super nice about it and gave us a different room… first time in my life that I ever experienced something like this…

Nice Staff and clean and everything very close to it.

Helpful staff
