Colombina Hotel

Colombina Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"The property was extremely well located and on a beautiful canal where the gondolas pass by. It is an easy walk from Saint Marco Square and the rooms were immaculate and the bathtub was especially nice given that there are very few of them and Europe. The staff was incredibly well, organized, and planned many of our activities for us and did so well. They are very knowledgeable about the city and seem to be a consistent group of people. I would definitely recommend this place again."

"The Hotel Bella Venezia is perfect for a trip to Venice. The location is ideal as it is midway between Rialto and San Marco. All the staff were very pleasant, helpful and welcoming. I had a wonderful corner room which had four windows and an excellent view of the canal below. I would be very happy to return."
