The breakfast was outstanding every morning. It had everything and more that you could want to eat. The staff was super accommodating for us when we had to eat quickly and hurry to the train station. In fact, all the staff were great and very helpful throughout our stay. We liked that the hotel was so close to the bus and train stations, as well as the vaporetto stops. It made things very easy both arriving and departing Venice, as well as getting around the city and to Murano/Burano. Since it is on a side street, it was also much quieter than being on the main thoroughfares. It was easy to find the hotel. For my 80-year old parents, it had an elevator which made things easy for them to get to their room. The beds were comfortable - no complaints. The bathrooms were modern and clean. We would definitely stay again.

The only mirror in our room was in the bathroom which made getting ready in the mornings and putting on make-up challenging since we were in a triple. Also, there is no A/C so the windows open to let in the air and cool the rooms. This did not affect us on our trip in April, and we were quite comfortable, but I could see it might be an issue in the warmer months.

The decor of the room was very vibrant, very modern and pleasing. The room was decorated to a very high standard, especially for a 3 star hotel. Three separate areas for sitting (with 4 person settee and 2 good armchairs), for the bathroom and the third for the bedroom made the room very spacious and comfortable. It was certainly amongst the best rooms we have been in, and the best for a 3 star hotel.

Our sole criticism of the room was the inability to make a hot drink.A simple kettle would have been very welcome for making tea, coffee etc.

The location is very good, it's near to train station and major ferry station. Many restaurants around too. Given the building was 100 year+ old, it's considered very well maintained. Our room comes with two toilets, one at each level. Staff were friendly, greeted us warmly and gave us very clear explanation. It's very good value for money, for its execellent location and inclusive of breakfast. Breakfast was good too.

There's no elevator, you have to request the staff to help carry luggage. We are not used to asking people to help with luggage, and not sure if tipping is required. Our room got 2 levels, 3 beds at the attic and one at the lower floor. This was rather inconvenient because none was willing to split to sleep in the lower floor alone. Not able to control the room temperature easily to the right level. But all in all, still a great place to stay in Venice.

It’s a pretty hotel with gorgeous decorations. It’s nearby the train station, despite that we didn’t have any issues with loud noises from travelers. We booked a superior double room and it was a wonderful place. It was cozy, everything we needed was present. The bathroom was clean and the shower was spacious. The bed was sturdy, but comfortable. This was my first time traveling alone, I was meeting a friend in Venice but I arrived first at the hotel. I was quite nervous as this was my first time having booked a hotel. It’s safe to say that the staff were very kind and made me feel at ease. Checking in was a breeze and the man at the reception was sweet! The breakfast provided was good, with a nice variety of different foods! Overall a really enjoyable stay. Thank you for such a pleasant vacation.

The only thing I’d have to note is a minor detail; the fairly loud bells that go off around 7 in the morning. After all the hotel used to be a monastery. Truthfully though I wasn’t too bothered by it. It didn’t matter much to be, as aside from that the hotel had been really peaceful and quiet.

Choosing a hotel for our first stay in Venice was a difficult choice, there were so many to choose from, but we definitely made the right decision. The location, just around the corner from the train station, was perfect as it meant we didn’t have far to go with our luggage. Every single member of staff we came across during our stay were friendly, helpful and extremely knowledgable regarding any questions we had about getting around in the city. The Hotel itself felt very grand, whilst retaining the history of the building. We had looked at images when booking, but we were actually speechless when we saw it with our own eyes. The communal areas were stunning and well maintained. The breakfast had a large selection of food to suit everyone. The room had everything we needed and was perfect. We would definitely recommend this hotel. Thank you Team Abazzia for making our stay in Venice unforgettable.

Nothing.

The first thing you notice is the wonderful staff who were so accommodating and cordial. They heartily received us and oriented us to the city and hotel. The room was beautifully appointed, but was the smallest we had in all our time in Italy, not surprising for Venice, though. The accompanying bathroom was a good size and that helped. Breakfast was diverse with a great variety of sweets and proteins plus cereals, pastries, and savory items as well as coffee, tea, and juices. This is a nice gem in a crammed city; don't let the "datedness" or location fool you. It was central to the train station, to the water buses, and main thoroughfare, so we found it easy to navigate the island(s).

The breakfast was diverse, but lacked eggs, which we found strange. The whole atmosphere needs some updating even accommodating for the fact it was a monastery in lives past. Hate their doors going into the hotel.

The location was perfect for us, just a couple of minutes from Venice Santa Lucia train station! The staff absolutely adorable, very friendly and extremely helpful, made us feel immediately at home. The building is wonderful as it used to be an old abbey, it has retained that charming history reflected inside. The room was very nice and very quiet! We slept beautifully and breakfast was a very nice spread! Orange juice is a part, 6 Euro for a glass. There is also a nice little garden/patio, perfect for eating outside in warm weather.

This was my third stay in this hotel. The location is great, a few minutes from the train station and a short walk to the airport taxi or bus with one long and easy bridge. Distances in online apps are a bit deceiving as they do not show the bridges which can be a challenge for some people with luggage, having said that porters are available but of at a high cost. The staff have been friendly and helpful. The place has a special charm as it used to be a historical Abbey. This year they it has an elevator wich made it much more convenient specially with luggage, also my room had upgraded bathroom. Breakfast is a bit modest lacking authentic quality Italian food but sufficient. The breakfast staff were nice but the menue/quality can be improved. Before Covid they used to have afternoon tea/coffee with biscuits which was a nice hospitality touch, we were told it was stopped due to hieginic reasons which is not convincing after several years post Covid. A tea and coffe maker in the room would have been great. Overall it is a charming place which I would come back to it if I visit the unique and only Venice.

Nothing other than the minor comments in the like section.

The staff here make this place second to none. From the moment we arrived the wonderful gentleman at reception made us feel welcome and helped us organise some nice lunch spots. In the evening we got some drinks in the beautiful lounge area and the staff made us feel so at home. The location is excellent, right beside the train station and near plenty of bars and restaurants. The style of this hotel is very authentic and we really enjoyed immersing ourselves in its traditional style.

The only downfall was, even though the style of the property and rooms is exceptional and beautiful, a couple of the facilities could do with an upgrade. For example, our bathroom fan gave quite a rattling noise which, not a deal breaker, but could’ve been better.

The location is perfect. 10 minutes from the bus station. The hotel is an old monastery, a beautiful building with amazing character. The corridors & rooms are quirky & brilliantly lit with clever lighting. The breakfast is outstanding with so many options to choose from. All of the staff in the hotel were so friendly & helpful. We would highly recommend the Hotel Abbazia!

It's a pity the main hall (an old area where the monks used to dine) hadn't an open bar. It's a beautiful peaceful place that would be lovely to sit in & have a glass of vino! But, in fairness,,,,, the lads said we could bring our own & drink away (which we did :)
