This hotel is a very short walk from the boat stop (about 7-8 minutes) Lido can be reached directly from the airport. Firstly I loved Lido and the vibe, nice restaurants, houses, clean streets. The hotel was easy to find. I was lucky as my room was ready early and I was allowed to check in early which was appreciated. My room was for a single person and it was very cosy and nice. There was a small balcony, a single bed, kettle, fridge, table and chair and of course the usual things like hairdryer and amenities. Staff was professional and polite both in the Reception and during breakfast in the restaurant area. It's a very quiet area. Unfortunately I didn't have time to explore Lido too much but during the walks to the boat stop and one afternoon walk I could see that it's very nice. It's about 15 minutes boat ride from Venice - Venice is visible from the boat stop. After check out I could leave my stuff in the hotel and there is also a bathroom to use if needed after check out. The breakfast was nice and there was something for all taste. I really liked the decoration of the breakfast room. The only thing I would mention as something that could be improved maybe is the water pressure in the shower. It was fine but could have been stronger. Overall I loved my stay here and I would definitely return.

Lido is beautiful. Very good breakfast buffet, and pleasant hotel clerks . However, it is hard to take your luggage to the hotel doors due to much construction on the street. Also… beware that this is a VERY old Italian style hotel. It is quite hot in the rooms, even in winter. Beds very hard and small… better to buy the biggest room with a large blecony of you can afford it. Was asked to also pay the same tax twice, even though I had already paid. I explained and the clerk insisted I must pay again. I was VERY annoyed, but just paid the extra $5 euro again she would stop bothering me. I would not stay at this hotel again. Yes to Lido, no to this hotel.

Fantastic

We had a fantastic stay at Hotel Rigel in Venice on the Lido. The rooms were comfortable and pleasant, the breakfast was great, and the location was perfect for exploring both the Lido and Venice itself. However, the real highlight of our stay was the incredible staff, particularly Marco M. Every evening, he went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, always with a smile and a warm, friendly manner. Our son instantly bonded with him, and it was heartwarming to see their friendship grow over the three nights we stayed. A truly memorable experience—thank you to team and especially Marco M for making our trip so special!

A nice traditional hotel located in a quiet area on Venice Lido. Rooms vary in size, some are excellent, others a bit cramped. Excellent breakfast. Venice Lido is an excellent place to stay if you are visiting Venice. The hotels tend to be better and much cheaper than in Venice itself. Plus the Lido is a very pleasant seaside area with good facilities.

Brilliant stay on the Lido

A really lovely hotel down a residential road but only moments away from the main Lido strip with shops, restaurants and ice cream shops. The room was ready two hours early which was such a relief after travelling from Lake Garda. Very nice clean room with good air conditioning. Four beds neatly made looking pristine. Very clean bathroom with lots of towels and toiletries for all four of us. A bonus was a fridge in the room, not a bar but empty which meant we could store our water in it which was brilliant. Breakfast was a very big spread of fresh croissants, selection of cakes, biscuits, lots of fruit, cheese, ham plus cooked egg and sausage. Overall there was plenty of choice for us and our two kids. Hot chocolate machine was delicious. We would come back to this hotel.

I loved the location as it was walking distance to most of Lido's restaurants and attractions and easily got to on foot being a 3 minute stroll from the ferry stop. The breakfast was substantial and had something to cater for everyone. I would highly recommend for those not wanting to come home to the hustle and bustle of Venice at the end of a busy touristy day, leaving it all behind and heading for the Lido and being able to walk on the beach is very special.

So we actually didn't end up staying here! We arrived to Lido on the vaporetto, dragged our bags on the 10-minute walk to the hotel, and arrived, to be told our room was given to a tour group! When we asked when they knew this, they said the night before! When we then asked why they didn't call, text, or email last night or even this morning to talk to us, they said they wanted to tell us in person! They had arranged with Hotel Belvedere to take us for the 3 nights, and get this, that hotel was literally across the street from the Vaporetto stop! At least they called a taxi at their expense, and took us and our bags to the Belvedere, which we would HIGHLY recommend! The Hotel Belvedere is fully updated, very modern rooms and bathrooms, included plentiful and fresh breakfast, very nice staff, and again, right across from the main vaporetto stop to get you to Venice in minutes! When you book your stay in Lido, book at the Hotel Belvedere!
