Venice hotels in Lido

seaside, comfort, food, staff

Excellent, attentive staff Suspect we did not get the best rooms available for the price paid

1/ The charm of the Lido and the atmosphere "annees folles"...2/ The regular and complimentory speed boat to St Marco3/ The quietness of the hotel room 1/ The oldness of the rooms: they would need to be refurbished w/o however loosing the oldness touc of the hotel (a good role model is Relais and Chateaux type of hotels, allying history to luxury) 2/ The food in the cafe was just "ok" and not cheap for what it was...either needs top food...or lower the price

Service got better as we went through Overly expensive, tired and really only 3* standard

Bedroom was v big They were pretty much closing up for close season. No spa, no pool, no beach, no shops, even all the glass cabinets had been emptied

Quiet good quality hotel, good food and service, comfortable rooms, caring staff especially when considering the children. Narrow lifts made it difficult to access with a push chair. Wheels had to be taken off chair!

Mini bar not replenished each day,coffee/tea making not replenished and plastic mugs and spoons not acceptable for a 4star hotel in our experience. Soap disappeared on two occasions and not replenished. These were only small irritations but irritations nevertheless. Otherwise very good.

The hotel was in a great location with fantastic views across the lagoon. The terrace garden was really nice, the breakfast good and the room was spacious and well equipped.

first room offered was small with one tiny window and a sloping ceiling making it quite claustrophobic, second room had been sprayed with a very powerful chemical spray to cover up dog smells and it was filthy and damp, the third room was what we should have got in the first place and was roomier, with much more light. daytime reception staff were condescending. there are only 6 very cramped parking spaces for 70 hotel rooms and their comments of parking out on the street at front of hotel is very misleading. in the 4 days we were at the hotel parking out the front was never available. we had to park at least 1/2 km away. be wary if you are expecting parking onsite or on the street out front you better be visiting in winter!!

Clean and very big rooms. No restaurant, no free tea/coffee which should be standard in this category, parking slots for free but ferry with 100 EUR for car with 4 people very expensive, water taxi to Venice casts 6 EUR per person one way and beach usage 13 EUR. No pool and/or fitness facilities. Location is in the middle of the island and no view to water as claimed. Summary: ridiculous expensive for offered value.

The location and the grounds The staff were very good and helpful The breakfast was poor, with little fresh fruit and a limited selection.The Restarant is terrible and expensive

The only good thing about this hotel is its location - close to the beach and the waterbuses. The room had a good unsuite bathroom with a spa bath. Free Wi-Fi We got a twin room instead of a double. The room had tacky old furniture and the balcony wasn't overlooking a garden as advertised in the pictures. Bad swimming-pool style hairdryer. The worst thing was probably breakfast. There was the same choice of food every day, mostly not-very-tasty cakes and croissants, cold and cracked boiled eggs, disgusting-looking omlette, bad tea, old cutlery and plates. All-in-all wouldn't give this hotel more than 2.5 stars.

the friendliness of the staff and we received a bottle of prosecco to say sorry for the mould in the room. There was mould in the room and although later cleaned, the smell of it never went away, room was so small we could hardly go round the bed, you had to squeeze past the bathroom door, then close it to access the toilet. It seemed the room hadn't been used for ages. Very overpriced.

I liked the location - I did not like the room - was definitely not 4* standard. doors falling off wardrobes, skirting boards broken, bathroom tiny.

nice room ( i requested a room with a view if possible when i booked) which they noted and granted - nice touch. staff friendly, nice breakfast room and being on the lido it was close to venice itself but far enough away to be relaxing. no - everything was fine

The hotel was not central, and travel ate up a good part of the day. There was nothing to see in this area of Venice. I felt services to be poor at this hotel as we were charged a fee of 60 euro to have a comforter brought to the cleaners for a black marking on it. I was also nearly charged a fee for a water taxi I did not request and was kept up 2 nights that I was there because of noise.

Everything was perfectly acceptable, the staff were pleasant, location was fine because the bus stopped outside. Breakfast on the terrace was rather lovely. It was a nice hotel to stay in. Pillows were awful The a/c died in the middle of the night and couldnt be fixed and we couldnt be moved to another room until the next day but it was dealt with as well as could be expected

Quiet location; very good breakfast; friendly and helpful staff; nice bedrooms; environmentally conscious. Bathroom could do with a revamp.

Our room was newly refurbished. Nice viktorian style furnishings. The location of hotel is too far away from town centre, the beach and ferry connections! There is a bus stop close to hotel, but I wouldnt say the bus is very reliable or that the routes are straightforward. Also, could not open the windows due to bad smell from outside.Our personal belongings in our room were continuously moved by housekeeping staff. We vacated the hotel two days before our departure date (due to our disliking the hotel and location) with no refund given or questions asked by any of the staff.

This hotel is lovely and quiet has a fab view for breakfast and is easy to walk of bus stops outside and wvwn water taxis can take you to almost the front door

Close to transport for Venice and also within easy walking distance for the beach. No tea and coffee making facilities in the room.

Location and accomodation. Nothing.

The staff were very helpful and the food was excellent, in particular the 'all inclusive' menu. Beds were very hard as were the pillows. Would have liked a bath as well as a shower.
