A bit of waffle to start....last February my wife and I went to a real dump of a hotel in Amsterdam (Hotel Ajax - if you want a good read search for that one). We hadn't taken the precaution of looking at this site (or any other). This time I decided to use this site as a guide for a... more

After reading all the positive reviews on Trip Advisor for this hotel we booked it. It lived up to all its expectations plus more. The hotel is in a perfect location to visit Venice and the staff were the best. The rooms are beautiful and the breakfast was a perfect way to start the day. The only problem was our... more

I would warmly recommend this hotel as an ideal place to stay in Venice. It is within a few minutes walking distance of both bus and train stations and also the Grand Canal, therefore very convenient for getting around Venice. This might give you the impression that it will be noisy, but it is actually very calm and peaceful, centred... more

I would highly recommend staying at the Hotel Abbazia. Besides its extremely close proximity to the station, well equipped and clean rooms and a beautiful hall, what stands out most about this place is the people who work there. We found the staff friendly, extremely helpful and with a great sense of humour. I had left some souveniers in the... more

Perfect location, close to train station and water bus stop and a bridge over the canal. Great staff. Hair dryer was a little weird. more

This hotel is excellent. Large airy room with an excellent bathroom and a lovely breakfast. A very short walk to station which is a huge plus in Venice. Staff friendly and happy to assist with any queries. Would definitely stay there again. more

We stayed for 2 nights in Sept. 2008 and it couldn't have been better. Rooms were very neat, bathroom sparkling clean, breakfast scrumptous and the front desk employees were extremely helpful (especially Fabio) as our luggage was lost and they called all day and evening to the airport to see if it had arrived yet. The hotel is a former... more

We stayed at this hotel for 3 nights in October 2008. We were pleased with the location which is located in a small alley near to the railway station and the bus station, so we did not have to drag our cases onto the water buses and over bridges. It was also near to the water bus stop from where... more

Spent 3 nights here and couldn't fault this hotel, absolutely recommend this place to anyone. Arrived at 10am, so room obviously wasn't ready (check-in time 'officially' 1pm) and the staff couldn't do enough to help, they stored our bags and we were even offered complimentary breakfast and coffee. By the time we had eaten and were about to leave to... more
