"The 2 floor room with the hot tub was really cool"

Hilton Molino Stucky Venice

Hilton Molino Stucky Venice

8/10 Good
"It was solidly very good and the front of house staff were attentive and excellent. Food was average and pricey (to be expected in a hotel I guess). Room was clean but there was only one glass instead of two (this was not corrected during the entirety of our stay - but we also didn't ask, I was just curious to see if it would be picked up by housekeeping unaided), and the bath had an unsighly chip in it, which was a bit offputting. The pool was excellent - a highlight amenity and the spa massage was very good as well."

10/10 Excellent
"We were completely satisfied with the hotel. The staff was very helpful and accommodating. We were one flight up and there are no elevators, so they brought all our luggage up and down. They even took it for us to the water taxi when we left. We definitely recommend this hotel and would stay there again."
