Palazzo San Lorenzo

"Very nice hotel in an excellent location, the room was beautiful with an amazing shower, staff very helpful and also a great breakfast. Only downside, you could hear next doors shower so loudly, maybe the pipes, shame they showered at 1.45am, woke up wondering what all the noise was"

"The room was very nice, but the staff seemed a bit impatient. And there was no welcome drink they promised. They weren't friendly or made conversation as the other staff in hotels did in other parts of Italy we stayed. A little bit too bougie for me."

"We have just got back from a long weekend and couldn't recommend this hotel enough. I emailed the hotel a couple of times before the trip as it was for a special occasion and they replied promptly. From reading Tripadivsor reviews I asked that we didn't have a room with an interconnecting door due to a couple of reviewed stating issues with noise, which they had no problem organising. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel welcome - the concierge spent time checking how our journey was then introducing us to Venice. He provided a map (which we ended up using for the entire trip) and ran through the main areas and ways to get around. The room was great - spacious, immaculately decorated, comfortable bed and large shower. Our room door faced on to the staircase, but we had no issues with noise. We went for the breakfast, which was a good continental style. The hotel is superbly located for a trip to Venice. 5 min walk to St. Mark's square and 5 mins to the most useful Vaparetto stations. On our final day, after we had checked out, the hotel had no problem looking after our bags until our flight time. And as an FYI - we ended up booking a water taxi to and from Marco Polo airport. If you're looking at options just put your hand in your pocket go with this - it's by far the quickest and most stress free option, plus you feel like James Bond!"
