Carleton is pretty Grand

The hotel is close to the bus station which is very handy if you dont want to pay a fortune on transfers. Bus is easy to obtain tickets and can be picked up just outside the airport, all very easy and only 6 euros a person. The hotel is one of the best we saw during our visit the staff are very friendly and happy to help with any question. Quality of the hotel is good although a little pricey on food and drink. Our room (218) had no view but was lovely just the same only downside to tea/coffee facilities). I would definately recommend the hotel and Venice isnt as big as you first think so everything is within walking distance and we had great fun just wandering about getting lost. A great hotel in a beautiful City....Pete

If a street vendor trusts a rose or umbrella in your hand just say no if you dont want it. Haggle with the street stall guys they love it and shop around for food the prices do vary. Just enjoy an amazing City

Good location but small bedrooms

Agréable et calme

4 nuits comprenant la fin du carnaval dans cet hôtel calme et central Le petit déjeuner copieux, la literie ferme et la chambre impeccable. Le personnel est agréable, discret et efficace. Seul regret, que la lumière du couloir filtre sous la porte la nuit.

駅の目の前に位置(徒歩3分)する、設備の整った大型ホテルです

駅の目の前に位置(徒歩3分)する、設備の整った大型ホテルです。 ロビーは広々していて、フロントの人も感じが良く、部屋も清潔でした。 駅前からヴァポレットが出るので、観光には困りません。 安くは無いですが、「ベネチアプライス」と言われるほど、他の都市より 全てが高い街なので、このくらいの価格は仕方無いのかもしれません。 サンマルコ広場周辺は、ランチでも2人で100€を超えるほど高いですが、 ホテルの近くにMARCIANAという安くて美味しいトラットリアがあり、重宝 しました。 朝食に野菜は 切ありませんでした。
