Venetsia hotellit San Polo

Plussat: The meticulous hospitsality

Plussat: Our room was spacious, and incredibly comfortable. The heating was controlled within our room, and the bathroom was really clean and had a good shower. We even got some fresh milk when we asked for it so we could have a hot drink after checking in! Barbara was so helpful in giving us tips on how to explore Venice, and also in giving a whole load of tips on restaurants and pre-booking all our dinners for us before arrival (something pretty important to do in Venice!) Nothing to fault! We fell in love with Venice and would love to return.

Plussat: We could not praise the staff highly enough. They were both professional and friendly and a mine of helpful information for our specific needs. Meeting other travelers over breakfast was so in this charming setting. I will absolutely stay here again and recommend it without reservation.

Plussat: Great hospitality! Everything from helping us with our luggage to helping us book train tickets and mapping out our few days in the city. Loved our room overlooking the streets, very quiet, yet easy walk to anywhere in the city. Thank you!

Miinukset: n/a

Plussat: Great location near transportation including train station as well as a lot of the attractions. Knowledgeable staff of local attractions and restaurants and complimentary breakfast including gluten free options.

Miinukset: Bathroom had damaged wood floor due to previous guest causing water damage, which was a potential hazard because of how the floor was buckled. We were not informed prior to our arrival, even though it had happened the week prior and one other couple had stayed in the room before us. We would have preferred communication about this problem prior to our arrival so we could have had a choice to book another option or at least an offer of a partial refund for the room.

Plussat: Room very comfortable,excellent continental breakfast and excellent host.

Miinukset: The 71 step climb to our room.

Plussat: Location, very polite Indian host, and the rooms and facilities were much better than on the photos. Much more above expectations. Very cozy and spacious rooms.

Miinukset: Everything was just perfect!

Plussat: There building was nice inside

Miinukset: Ordered a double and what we got was a twin with the beds pushed together

Plussat: The breakfast was lovely, there was a wide range of delicious choices. The bed was very comfortable, it was pretty clean and the room had all the facilities. The location was great because it is not right where the crowd is. Quiet, beautiful and central.

Miinukset: All good

Plussat: Room is extremely clean and comfortable. Good breakfast and professional staff. Winter season got very good room rates.

Miinukset: Better to buy the water bus day pass for easy access to San Marco, otherwise quite a walk.

Plussat: Staff

Miinukset: Room not as advertised

Plussat: The staff were very attentive and made us feel welcome. The room was amazing with modern gadgets and very clean.

Plussat: Location was very close to the boats.

Plussat: The rooms and decor of the public areas is very impressive. The surrounding area is really nice with many good restaurants within literally 2 or 3 minutes walk. The shower in the room was probably the best shower I’ve ever had.

Miinukset: Breakfast was slightly underwhelming with limited choice and if you went towards the end of service many of the things had ran out/were going cold.

Miinukset: Breakfast

Plussat: The location and cleanliness.

Miinukset: The bed was 2 smaller beds pushed together as one.. which made you sink between the two mattresses. Also canal view was nice but came with mosquitoes.

Plussat: - the managers are helpful , morning & night shift , both managers are good

Miinukset: - No staffs at the hotel, it was like a horror hotel, no guests, no staffs - room are dusty and smelly - photo and real room have a big difference - breakfast has no choice, not even have EGG

Plussat: The view

Miinukset: Breakfast was poor and not fresh

Plussat: Size of room. Quiet. Lady on reception was very polite.

Miinukset: Where to start... First of all, main entrance to the hotel is from the sea, so you can arrive only with boat. There is other entrance where you can come by walk, but it’s so small, so dark, so scary, in very long and tight street witout lights. It looks like you enter in some old dark basement...SCARY! When we arrived on reception was a reception staff, a man. We were talking, and I said normaly that it was so busy and a lot of people, so we couldn’t find any available taxi boat to arrive. He said sarcastic “It’s not my fault!”... why is that for. I never said something like that. What a behaviour! But the most terrible thing is that we paid more than 500€ for one night, in 4 star hotel. It said that breakfast is included. They say that orange juice is fresh, but obviously it’s not, you know when you taste it. When we come on breakfast, it was not buffet, they bring you on table some things like butter, bakes, nothing special... but if you want eggs, it is EXTRA charged. SHAME ON YOU! Also they have made a reservation for the amount on my credit card. When we did check-out we have paid in cash... more than 10 days they didn’t return that reserved money on my credit card. Dear hotel, a time before this I slept in Danieli hotel for 600€, 5 star, awesome breakfast included, location perfect... you are trying to compare with hotel like this with prices, and you offer so much more LESS... Defenetly the worst hotel I’ve even been in, and I wouldn’t recomend it to anyone! Luckly I was here just for one night.

Plussat: Very friendly staff, lovely big room and fantastic location with quick easy access to the airport and local attractions. If I had of known it would have been this good I would have booked for longer

Plussat: Staff were great, location perfect

Miinukset: Breakfast could varied a little

Plussat: This hotel was very close to st marks square and right by the ferry bus stop.

Miinukset: This d'hôtel room was quite small and expensive for what was offered.

Plussat: Polite and friendly staff, knowledgeable and helpful; excellent decor and cleanliness in room; superb canal view

Miinukset: We were really disappointed there were no tea and coffee making facilities in the room and buying such beverages from the bar proved expensive!

Plussat: Fantastic location and excellent staff.

Plussat: Tha barman Marco was excellent!

Miinukset: Breakfast was basic and room was a bit too dark

Plussat: the staff was nice but not really aware of what was happening in Venise whereas we went there for the Biennale and the Mostra... They did not have any programme or map...

Plussat: The situation is very beautiful, and the table in the bar on the balcony is a wonderful place to drink in the afternoon. The breakfast is lovely.

Miinukset: The room was very dusty, like it hadn't been dusted for weeks. There's no internet access in the room of any kind even though this is promised. "Most of our customers don't want it," I was told. Nonetheless it was promised & I wanted it. We had no hot water for showers: when I enquired about this I was told, "there is a fault," but no alternative was offered. One of the staff members I spoke to (not all, I hasten to add) was very rude and dismissive. He said that as I was only staying for one night these things shouldn't matter; also that as I had spent three nights at another hotel before moving to this hotel for the (what was supposed to me a much better) last night, that I should have stayed where I was. He was so right!

Plussat: Wonderful Hotel. Arrived hot and bothered but room was ready and nice and cool (thank god for a/c). Helpful friendly staff, very nice breakfast. We booked the Barbarigo for our anniversary and wanted somewhere classy and certainly found it here. Everything is clean and new looking, nice view from the second floor breakfast/bar area, there is even a table and chairs on the balcony for a more intermite meal! Get the Vaparetto to the S. Toma stop and head right, when you reach the little square with some glass shops and the rear enterance is tucked away on the right or alternativly get a private taxi to the front door!

Plussat: Very intimate and unique.

Plussat: Magnificent setting, luxurious room. Service was perfect, attentive without being oppressive. The best hotel we have stayed at in Venice.

Plussat: The hotel is very luxurious. We stayed in a junior suite which was fantastic, superbly designed and had great views of the canal. The hotel staff were very attentive yet very discreet. We would highly recommend this hotel for a comfortable, luxurious stay in Venice.

Miinukset: You would need to get a water taxi to the hotel (expensive) as trying to get there by foot is extremely difficult and has no signs directing you to hotel which is down little alleyways.

Plussat: Beautiful location, friendly staff.

Miinukset: Poor bar service, slightly overpriced, but to be expected from the location. Only slight disappointment was dusty rooms with no air conditioning and very hot/stuffy. Apparently the air con is only switched on in summer.

Plussat: the bathrooms in luxury rooms fantastic . staff were so friendly and very helpful

Plussat: The host was gentle and welcoming. The room is very clean. The breakfast prepared by the host was excellent. Very convenient location as well.

Plussat: The friendly place, location and the staff. Knowledge of the areas around the B & B. Recommendations on local restaurants

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The staff is super friendly and I loved the breakfast. The boat station San Tomà is very near.

Plussat: The location is absolutely amazing. Right beside everything that's happening but once you go in, it's very nice and quiet. Room was clean, washroom as well. Check in was painless though we arrived really late, the owner left a note on the front desk and marked the room with name. Breakfast was great as well. Cereal or breads, ham and cheese, juice, coffee. You get to meet the owner Marco there, who prepared the breakfast himself. Very nice guy, great manner. Room had coffee, tea, ac, small TV, fan and a safe.

Miinukset: It was a little hard to find at night. No big or visible signs on the front but we managed to find it after a few minutes.

Plussat: The location was excellent. The breakfast in the morning was basic but good but is the same every day. The room had A/C which is a must in Venice in summer. No TV which was Ok. We had to do early checkout in the morning and the hosts were generous enough to provide breakfast before the daily breakfast start time. Note to others: The hotel is very easy to find from San Toma vaporetto stop. If you are using google maps first go to San Toma Vaporetto and then use the instructions on the b&b website to find the place.

Plussat: The host was very nice, and the space was really good

Miinukset: Needs better indication on the streets to find the place

Plussat: Venice can be confusing...When I finally found hostel it was only short distance from bus and train station. I had an accident on my way and when I arrived I was treated with concern and immediate help. It's a business with a heart and willingness to solve issues. Love the staff, especially Manolo.

Miinukset: The name over door had Escuolo so I didn't find it immediately

Plussat: Very good location The staffs are polite and fun. Good facilities except it doesn't have a kitchen. Nice views. Good bed and room. Overall value for money

Plussat: Superb welcome. Nice people. Good location. Good facilities Definitely will return.

Miinukset: All pretty good. No complaints.

Plussat: Viihtyisä hostelli hyvällä sijainnilla. Ystävällinen henkilökunta. Matkatavarat sai jättää chekcoutin jälkeen maksuttomaan ja vartioimattomaan hyllyyn säilöön. Kattoterassi oli kiva.

Miinukset: Jos päivälämpötila on noin 30+ astetta huoneessa on yöllä kuin saunassa, vaikka miten pitäisi ikkunoita aukia ja tuuletinta päällä. Lisäksi jos ikkunoita pitää auki hyttysiä voi olla paljon. Tämä ei tietenkään ole hostellin vika, mutta harkitsisin silti kuumimpana aikana täällä yöpymistä kahteen kertaan. Varasin vuoteen huoneesta, jossa piti olla 3 vuodepaikkaa, sekä kuvien että tietojen perusteella, mutta yksi sängyistä oli muutettu kerrossängyksi eli huone olikin muutettu 4:lle henkilölle.

Plussat: Peruasiat kunnossa, ja hintatasoon nähden hyvä. Hyvä sijainti rautatie- ja bussiaseman lähellä.

Miinukset: Huoneessa oli liian kuuma.

Plussat: The room and the bathrooms were spotless great location to all the nearby attractions

Miinukset: The room was a little small

Plussat: The hotel was in a good place, not so crowded and the room was perfect. Super comfortable. The landlord was really nice and even offered the guests a free tour around Venice on his boat. Would definitely recommend it!

Miinukset: I have heard that finding a nice room in Venice -- particularly one that is reasonably priced -- is difficult. This place was terrible. The room was horribly small and frankly -- dirty. I had to have the place cleaned once I checked-in -- as the bed was unmade and there was a pack of tobacco and rolling papers. It smells. The shower curtain was covered with mildew. And it's loud. I've slept in cars on the side of the road; it was preferable.

Plussat: The receptionist was very helpful

Plussat: It was the best priced private room we could find in Venice. Breakfast was good. would only recommend this to anyone who wants to have a private room but doesn't want to pay too much. The (in room) shower was clean.

Miinukset: The price was too high for what you got. We paid the exact same for a hotel in Berlin and it was much more comfortable and modern - it at least had air con. The air con in the room in Venice didn't have any temperature no matter which way the dial was turned. There was no wifi in the rooms. The bedhead was dirty! but the sheets were clean.

Plussat: for reasonable price (for Venice) you get a good base for wandering around the city. We stayed for 3 nights and didn't experience any discomfort.

Plussat: Great Location. Charming old furniture.

Miinukset: Breakfast was average.

Plussat: The location is excellent - close to a "major" vaporetto stop (lines 1 & 2), 15 min by foot to San Marco.

Miinukset: A lot of mosquitos in the room; not so critical for adults, but for small children it's better to avoid this place.

Plussat: Location of the Hotel is very good

Miinukset: One person of the staff was not very nice. But in general the people were nice. The rooms are in a relative bad condition. The furniture is old and sometimes dirty. The price is extremly high. But the rest of Venice is equally expensive.

Miinukset: erittai huono WC.

Plussat: Very Friendly Staff and the breakfast was decent for Italy

Plussat: location: very easy to find

Miinukset: the breakfast was very poor and the timing very short (from 8h00 to 9h30)

Miinukset: The included breakfast

Plussat: They allowed us to use their internet connection to print a boarding pass since all internet points were closed on Sunday.

Miinukset: Well, the most prominent was pulling down the bedspread on the double bed to find a half-eaten sandwich stuffed in between the pillows. There were also long dark hairs on the pillow of the single bed (we had a triple room). They clearly only pretended to have changed the linens. This was the worst example, but it was generally a slovenly, claustrophobic and unpleasant place, with an indifferent staff at best (even by Venice standards).

Plussat: location, staff being helpful
