Top Venice Hotel Reviews

Crowne Plaza Venice East by IHG

Crowne Plaza Venice East by IHG

10/10 Excellent
"The accommodations were well-maintained and immaculate. The staff provided exceptional assistance, facilitating both complimentary airport shuttle service to the hotel and taxi arrangements from the hotel to the Ravenna cruise port. Breakfast offerings were of superior quality. The hotel's proximity to the train station, located less than 50 meters away, offers convenient access to Venice for approximately 5 euros. Train schedules can be obtained from the staff."

Hotel Rialto

Hotel Rialto

8/10 Good
"There's an under used terrace with views of the Rialto, above the crowd. This place is historic. The walls aren't wallpapered, they are covered in fabric. It feels outdated but also nostalgic. Our AC was leaking but they fixed it. Breakfast is nothing special, we preferred to go out to get cicchetti and coffee, but it was convenient on days that we needed to catch up on energy. Location is perfect, so central to everything and you get to enjoy the canal and the bridge without having to go to it."
