Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was unforgettable, with beautiful rooms and exceptional service. The location was a mix of city touring and beach enjoyment, offering unique experiences. However, the dining area was hit or miss with outdoor seating being weather-dependent. The facilities were top-notch with lovely outdoor decorations, although the service could be improved for the high price paid.
The hotel exceeded our expectations with its wonderful location and exceptional service. Although some aspects like the room setup and extra charges for breakfast items could be improved, our overall experience was delightful.
The hotel had some drawbacks in terms of room finish and equipment, with issues in the shower and toilet functionality. The rooms, although somewhat dated, were adequate, although the balcony was dark and unkempt with rusty chairs. On the positive side, the service was good, and staff were attentive and helpful, making recommendations for nearby restaurants. The location, while needing cleaning and presenting some noise challenges, was convenient to St Marks and came at a reasonable rate. The dining options, although not up to the expected standard for a luxury hotel, offered good choices, including vegan and gluten-free options. The facilities were satisfactory, with areas for improvement.
The hotel is beautifully situated on Lido Island in Venice, offering exclusive access to Venice via its private boat. The rooms are top-notch with impeccable cleanliness and well-stocked amenities. The service was exceptional, although there were some language barriers. The location, while stunning, lacked nearby amenities. The dining experience was enjoyable, albeit a bit pricey. Overall, a luxurious stay with a few minor drawbacks.
The hotel provided a good stay with clean and well-stocked rooms but lacked complementary water on check-in and had some technical equipment issues. The service was overall slow and disappointing with some communication barriers. However, the location on Lido Beach and the exclusive boat service to Venice were standout features of the hotel.
