Sweet Venice
3 day weekend -Oct2012
Positives: Lovely staff from concierge to porter,kitchen staff etc. Breakfast area large (has 3 rooms) and food was above average. Location is FAB! right opposite the train station - very easy to find. For those heading towards St Marks square area its a good 40mins walk navigating through narrow alleyways else take the waterbus (route 1) for 7 euros - takes roughly same time as it covers around 10 stops with scenery worthy of kodak moments - Rialto bridge, fish market, basilicas. For the Londoners out there, if you try their pizzas you'll never wanna have Pizzahut again. Negatives: The actual rooms were noticeably smaller than on website. Although has character can't stop but remind myself the tiny space. Having said that its only for sleeping so not a big worry.

Money-saving tip:
Not Applicable
You can get bargain long weekend trips to Venice travelling by BA via Gatwick airport (direct flights) for just over 200 GBP. Prepare for rain and floods but its doesnt lasts long so wont disrupt the whole day.

Traditional Venecian Comfort
Hotel is in great location. Quick wallk from train station. Hotel is very clean and in quiet area also close to water bus landing. Unfortunately today and yesterday the water busses were on strike so we put on many miles walking over 80% of the Island. It almost seemed like a blessing because it forced us to go out of our way and say many of the bueatiful museams and churches off he beaten path. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful. Only wish was that wireless was available in rooms and not mjust in the bar area. Staye here many years ago and would definately stay here again. Ciao BABY!

Short walk from hotel
Many of the shops have the same items but prices range greatly. If your not in a hurry, mark the shops where you found the goods you liked and look around for similiar items in less pupulated areas. We saved up to 70%.

good choice
It is a very nice hotel with excellent location sitting by the Grand Canal. It is easy to come and go by the train just across the canal. The boat taxi is within short walk across the bridge. We were there for a couple of nights and the room size is OK with us as we were in a triple room. Breakfast is good. Free Wi-Fi is available in the bar area. However, it is bit too expensive.

Wonderful get away
The hotel is keenly located in front of the Santa Lucia Train Station on the Grand canal. Its staff was very professional meeting all of our requests with kind service and showed concern for our satisfaction while staying at the Hotel. The rooms were spacious and clean. We would readily stay at this location in the future because you can easily reach all key destinations in Venice.
