Great Stay!

Great stay! Reasonable price for the staying in the island with complementary breakfast. Climbing over the bridge with a big luggage from the train station was challenging, but I was glad it’s only one bridge I needed to cross to get to the hotel.

Nice hotel with canal view. Room was large and decorated well. Balcony wasn't really a balcony but a window that opened with a canal view. It was quiet at night and we slept well

Great place to stay. Clean and convenient if you come in by train. Very short walk from train allowing you to dump off your stuff and enjoy walking Venice unencumbered. Breakfast had a lot of options but nothing hot. Was a good base to start the day.

The Gardena Hotel lived up to its promise of having a great location convenient to the Piazzale Roma, but also to the water taxi to quickly get to other areas of Venice. The staff was excellent - responsive and attentive - and our room was well-sized and very comfortable. I'd 100 percent recommend this property to others! Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Average hotel

Central location from train station and water buses. Restaurants not far to walk and the hotel fronts a canal. Wonderful hotel with breakfast included. The room was small and the mattress was very hard. They need to put curtains that cover the whole window. Only disappointed with the shower water pressure otherwise the bathroom was modern and spacious. Our view was a brick wall however a canal view would have made our staff better. Overall, 2* hotel was perfect for the short stay.

The hotel is in a perfect location. Close to the train station (2 bridges, 5 minute walk). The hotel is on a smaller canal but very close to the grand canal. Our room was very quiet when we had the door closed (we had a balcony) but open, we enjoyed hearing the water and hustle and bustle of Venice. Breakfast was very good with many pastries, fruits, yogurts, meat and cheese offerings. There were dozens of restaurants nearby plus stores for picking up snacks and drinks. We would definitely stay again.

Adorable boutique hotel

Great location by the train station or bus terminal. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The inside was very cute. Breakfast was yummy with inside and outside seating. The AC was the only thing lacking. But that’s pretty normal in Europe. Definitely would stay again or recommend to friends.
