Agréable premier séjour au Serenissima
Pros:

L’hôtel est très bien situé entre le Rialto et la place San Marco, le personnel est très professionnel: accueil, renseignements, … Le petit déjeuner est varié, sans oublier des propositions sans gluten. L’établissement, la salle du petit déjeune ainsi que les chambres sont impeccables.

Friendly, clean and convenient property.
Pros:

Great location, clean, comfortable, lovely staff

Cons:

Just that there wasn’t a walk-in shower, but it was possible to shower in the bathtub. Wouldn’t be great if I had mobility issues. But otherwise Hotel Serenissima was great.
