A beautiful classic property with a huge pool, great beach with cabanas on a sandy beach and calm warm waters of the gulf of Venice. Wonderful courteous staff in all areas with a great buffet breakfast included with your stay. However I found the food service poor with high prices and sub standard service. Food choices were not great and much too pricey for the quality of food and amounts of food served. The boat service from 9am till 1130 pm with boats running every half hour to and from Venice proper was the greatest feature. You could go into Venice at any time of the day and return by 1130 pm. Shop,eat at a multiple variety of places at a multiple variety of prices at your convenience. Truly a great hotel and a great vacation!

I had booked a sea view suite as a treat. £500 per night. We were greeted at the desk in a very off-hand manner and shown to the lift and handed our keys. We found our room, but access to the balcony was locked. Apparently to access this, we had to go back downstairs, sign a waiver accepting carte blanche liability and go back up with a key! The room itself was tired with carpet stains and in need of renovation. The shower (over the bath) needed de-limescaling to work properly and the plug was slow to drain. A coffee machine was provided with 4 coffee pods for our entire stay. More were available at an extortionate price! The minibar had various bottles of water and soda which would be replenished again only at a price. The swimming pool was good and beds comfortable but any refreshments were eye-wateringly expensive (twice any other bar). Consequently we went out for refreshments and meals. However, the hotel is not in a great location for bars or restaurants. Luckily, we found BAGNO MARCONI a little further up the beach. Amazing.

The Excelsior is an extraordinary experience. A beautiful property, great beach, superb restaurants, wonderful ambience, with frequent boat service to Venice. The staff do a great job. It’s a once in a lifetime experience. Expensive but worth the splurge. An unparalleled beach and pool experience by day and the magic of Venice at night. Strongly recommended!
