The hotel is conveniently located near the Piazzale Roma. The staff were very friendly and helpful and our room was always kept clean. Thanks so much to the tesm !
Wonderful stay here. Room was amazing and big including the bathroom even a lift. We didn’t take breakfast as wanted to explore but communal coffee and tea available.
the location is excellent for train, busses, water taxi. The management company were fantastic with communication and a very safe area for the family to explore.
Loved the high ceilings. It’s in a great location. Easily walking distance to the bus, etc. A little bland in terms of aesthetics. Bed/pillows could’ve been a little bit more comfortable but overall, it was great.

The property was very nice,clean, good location, will recommend to friends.
👍👍👍
The location is convenient, close to the train station and bus loop. That's about the only good thing. Bathroom was musty, dirty, and shower did not drain. It's a "smart" hotel which means there's no service, you just get door codes and texts from a chatbot. Ok if you just need a basic room for a night and nothing else.
I recently stayed at Hotel Palazzo Martinelli Dolfin and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The hotel itself is housed in a beautifully restored historic building with elegant interiors that capture the charm of Venice.The rooms are recently renovated, very clean, and the bathrooms are spotless — which made the stay extra comfortable.
The location is a huge plus: it’s within easy walking distance to the train station and many of Venice’s main landmarks, which made exploring the city super convenient.
Overall, I’d definitely recommend this hotel if you’re looking for a comfortable, clean, and well-located place to stay in Venice.
Very clean attractive room and convenient eating area.
It would be helpful to have a local map to show walking directions from last stop of People Mover cable car to the hotel.
The hotel is about a 8 minute walk from the train station. There is an elevator which is nice, and a place to store luggage. We had no problem with the Smart hotel experience. Breakfast was nice. We loved the large bed and ample lighting in the room.
This was a great choice for our short trip Venice. Very conveniently located near the bus and train terminal. The hotel is situated a very short walk from both.
The room was modern and spacious with great views along the canal. The service was excellent and prompt, especially the woman at breakfast. I would highly recommend this hotel and look forward to our next visit to Venice.
This was a pleasure for us the Stay in the Hotel. Smart type hotel with codes to get in and for room. This said they had great service with rooms being cleaned every day and breakfast. In tube the the charm of Venice. Quieter side of Venice but with Water bus and taxi’s available short walking distance. Great Job to everyone and highly recommend.

The property is in a nice area quiet and well connected.
I doubt i will stay again as i think there are better properties for that cost.
On arrival, despite having asked to re confirm the room i has booked i found out that they had moved us. I know that sometimes there might be unexpected issues but i would expect the property to be in touch first and some sort of apologies. Instead of the canal view and two double beds there were one bed and one sofas with only a flatsheet not even covering it and a thin duvet in a room without any window and quite low ceilings.
I called the smart reception and only after several conversations with expedia and a night without sleep we got moved to a different room where the sofa bed at least had a mattress.
Unfortunately the walls are not soundproofed so the second night another guest didn't know how to open the door of her room and she spent two hours banging against her door until i decided to go out in my pijama and explain how to use the code.
All together not an experience that i am looking forwards to repeating.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
The pros: the cleaning staff and staff communicating via message are responsive, friendly and helpful, the room was a good size. The cons: location; it says it’s 6 min walk to St. Marks but it’s 30, and it says 4 min walk to grand canal but it’s 13 (and I am young and in shape). They don’t give you the wifi code until your room is ready and they email you but if you don’t purchase an international data plan you’re screwed. My room was literally in the dining room and I got up before breakfast but could hear everything, partially because there are gaps in the door. If you’re a solo traveler and concerned for your safety that is alarming. Their “storage” for your luggage is an unlocked cabinet so you have to put your faith in humanity that people don’t steal it as there is no reception. The bathroom was so small anyone who was tall their knees would hit the wall. There’s no shelf in the bathroom to put your toiletries so you have to put them on the floor. They let you check in at 3 when most places allow at 2 and check out is at 10 when most places in Italy it is 11.

Fantastic property, really historic feel BUT the AC was micromanaged by the renting organization and was not a very good experience overall due to that critical detail during a heat wave. The doors didn’t open and close properly leading to an accident on my end when the room got really really hot and I tried to open the main door so I can leave the room to get fresh air and forgot it still has the security latch engaged in leading to some framework damage. One painting fell in the main bedroom due to me falling on the floor due to heat exhaustion and my family couldn’t catch me in time. I hit my head on the concrete floor inside the room that night when I fainted from heat exhaustion. Overall the property is good property I just hope they can manage at a higher level for the amount of money they charge per night. I don’t appreciate the email accusing me of wrong doing before understanding what actually happened in my room that night. I’m asking for repair estimate so I can look at some type of repayment, they should consider giving me part of my room rent back due to the ac situation. Currently I have sharp pains in my head on the right side from the fall that took place that night in the room connected to the bathroom. I hope it’s not a longterm impact on my health. I have never had this kind of challenging experience in any of my other stays, Expedia can check my travel history. I apologize for any unintentional harm I caused their asset. I hope my health is ok long term.
We loved our stay in Venice the property is good but be prepared as it is not a hotel with staff. The check out is 10 am and the only luggage storage is “unattended” which we were told about in advance.
