The breakfast was amazing. They had everything that you could think of plus Prosecco. The room was very big and nice. They have free boat shuttle to Venice and back many times per day.The beach and pool were amazing as well. We would definitely stay in this hotel again.

Were are no sunbeds on the beach. The only way to have them is to rent the beach cabanas, but the price is 395 euro per day, that we're finding is way to expensive.

the incredible atmosphere of more than a century that this building has experienced, the beautifully renovated rooms, the sea view rooms have a breathtaking view, the sea is clean, the pool is heated and the half hourly shuttle to San Marco makes the Excelsior the best place in Venice, the restaurant is very good It was my about 20th stay in Venice and combined with a very exceptional Biennale the best. Thank you to room service manager Adriana for the great service and help.

even though the season hadn't started yet, the hotel was quite busy and the restaurant capacity was quite small

Perfect location , great facilities and a beautiful hotel I upgraded to a room with balcony and sea view, which was fantastic Excellent every half-hour shuttle boat to St Marco Staff was on top of things and very kind and service minded - across restaurants/bar, pool area , reception and concierge. You feel at home and appreciated

Eating and drinking at the hotel is expensive - but you have the option to boarder the shuttle boat (included in the rate) and find cheaper options Minor things, but part of the difference between “9” and “10” was that soap etc was not replaced when empty The balcony could have been better used with 2 outdoor chairs On sustainability, I suggest the lightening should not be put on after cleaning during the day and that towels should not be replacement when not on the floor On the face of it, a great arrangement with a vendor for a boat trip to Murano and Burano, as suggested by the concierge, but I suggest that you in stead book a non-vendor tour or just jump on/off the local ferry (you have to find your way back in any event and you would have seen more of the islands)

Everything

Having no coffee in the room in the morning. Being charged 15 euros for some coffee pods that tasted horrible. Was going to stay another night but didn’t because this annoyed me so much. For what I paid it is mean , pathetic, petite and self destructive!!!

A beautiful hotel, old school Hollywood glam with its film festival connections, and an amazing location right on the beach. Stunning views from our sea view room, lovely size room, spacious and very clean. The pool and terrace areas are beautiful, lots of space and places to relax. Food is great, all of the staff around the hotel are super helpful and friendly and go out of their way to ensure you have a great stay. Breakfast is plentiful and eating outside is a great way to start the day. The free boat service to and from Venice is an excellent perk of the stay, the boats are beautiful and it’s magical to pull into San Marco or back to the hotel dock. There really is no where else to stay if you’d like some relaxing time as well as a city break. We’ll definitely return!

The bathrooms could do with a little upgrade, but perhaps it’s part of the charm of the hotels heritage. Non complimentary water, tea and coffee in the room was a shame given the cost, would have been very welcome rather than having to pay extra for standard basics.

The hotel has a uniquely Venetian atmosphere and combines the beaches of the Adriatic Sea with the proximity to the centre of Venice. We have visited the hotel several times and we really like it. The size of the rooms is appropriate to the time the hotel was built and assumes you are living in them, not just staying overnight.

Although one can accept the fact that the price of the hotel is really high, especially in the summer months, it is a bit disappointing that the interior of some of the rooms is a bit dilapidated. However, the lack of service in the more remote tents on the beach at a price of approx. 400 EUR per day is definitely disappointing. Similarly, the pricing policy for drinks and lunches could be their unpretentiousness and also adapted to the simplicity of the food. The truth is that the quality of dinner in particular is reputedly excellent.

Beautiful and historic hotel. Rooms spacious and comfortable. On the beach and with a 30m swimming pool, gym and a great bar on a terrace overlooking the sea. The staff are wonderful and the food excellent. Shuttle boat to Piazza San Marco.

Swimming Pool opening hours: 9am to 7pm. It would be great if it opened at 7am or even 8am, 9am is really late. We would have liked to swim before breakfast.

Water taxi free and straight to St Marc’s Square Great taxi service Beautiful inside and out Big room, with high ceiling Very clean Staff very friendly Lovely pool Beech and over looks the sea

No Bircher or mushrooms in the buffet for breakfast. Spa would have been amazing Food expensive Sandwich selection, little snack shop would have been great. Our shampoo in room was empty - asked member of staff who told us to ask someone else.

Direct beach front Many beach privet cabins Hotel water shuttle Outdoor pool & large gym room Multi lifts and wid stairs Big lobby and breakfast room Friendly and supportive staff of all hotel functions from reception to the porters Good variety of food both at breakfast and beach bar

Furniture bit aged in general No full fledged spa or beauty salon Beach cabin expensive and require refurbishment to include shower as well

During our stay, we were delighted by the staff's exceptional friendliness and helpfulness. They accommodated our numerous questions and requests. The property itself was beautiful. Our room was wonderfully spacious. The pool and beach facilities were a real highlight, especially with the scorching weather, allowing us to relax and cool off at our leisure. Additionally, the convenient shuttle service to Venice town was a definite plus, making exploring the area effortless. Lastly, I must mention that the hotel's proximity to a bus stop was incredibly convenient for us. On our last day, it allowed us to easily catch a waterbus into town with all our luggage, making our departure smooth and hassle-free.

Despite our room being a bit outdated, we found it to be quite pleasant and comfortable. My family enjoyed the breakfast, although my wife, unfortunately, couldn't have the eggs due to her lactose intolerance. Apart from these two minor issues, we had a wonderful experience during our time there. The overall atmosphere and the enjoyable aspects of our stay overshadowed any minor inconveniences, making it a wonderful experience.
