Hotel Scandinavia

Location was great , very convenient. The room was not so great , very stuffy in the room , no ventilation .

We enjoyed our stay very much, with the location (we overlooked the Square and were not disturbed by the noise), en-suite (large, well stocked for towels and toiletries), breakfast (good choice, clean room, plenty of savoury, sweet and drinks) and wi-fi connection. The service and welcome from all of the Reception staff was excellent, with special mention to Nikola and Andrea who advised us on local eateries and Alilaguna service. Unlike some Italian hotels, there were carpets on the stairs, so we did not find it noisy. The reason for 4 stars and not 5 - There seems to be some general maintenance required and we hope that this is read and acted on, maybe it's down for over Winter - marks/scuffs on walls, curtains in room not hanging/closing, no kettle in room or guest drinks/refreshment area to sit. TIP - book directly with the hotel like we did. Price and room are better, and you're the customer of the hotel, not those online booking agents.

The hotel is very well located, easy access to all of Venice. All of the staff friendly and helpful, the lady that cleaned our room every day did a brilliant job, kept it immaculately clean. Breakfast was very good, lots of choice, very tasty. Our room, (1), had a nice view overlooking the square, and was well equipped, bathroom was well laid out, excellent shower. The bed was very comfortable, and the a/c and heating worked well. Overall we really enjoyed our stay here, would certainly recommend.

This hotel deserves 5 stars, it is very clean, the breakfast is great, the location is fab 10 minute walk to St Marks square or Rialto bridge but the best part are the staff, warm and welcoming, friendly and approachable. Venice felt very safe to be walking around in as a female solo traveller. The reason for deducting a star is a personal choice whilst the single room was perfectly adequate and the bed comfortable, the bathroom had been modernised, the room is on the wrong side of shabby chic and could use a lick of paint. Such a small thing, though, in an otherwise fantastic place to base yourself in Venice.

This was such a lovely hotel very close to everything we wanted to see. The breakfast was amazing and the kind folks at the front desk were so very friendly and helpful (as we had a LOT of questions). We had a wonderful time and would highly recommend this hotel.
