Adriatico

"We chose Hotel Adriatico for its strategic location, reasonable rates, and positive reviews online, and I am about to write another such review. We only had 24 hours in Venice, so we prioritized proximity to the bus terminal over proximity to the touristy area. This proved to be a very good decision because there would turn out to be a strike for all modes of transport (except for air travel) the day we left, and we were able to board one of the buses to Marco Polo Airport before things got really crazy at/after 9 am. Besides, Venice is so small that you can easily walk anywhere – no need to be on the doorsteps of San Marco Square. Our room was ready for us to check into our room when we arrived around 10:30 am, we dropped our bags there, and we didn’t get back until 9 pm. We weren’t in Venice to spend time in our room, and for us, this place had everything we needed. Our room on the second floor (same level as the front desk) had two beds, both of which were very comfortable, and opened onto a narrow alleyway so it wasn’t loud despite the hotel being in a high foot traffic area. When it got too hot at night, we opened the window and were able to sleep well after that. The bathroom was small but clean, and the WiFi worked well. Bring your own shampoo and conditioner if that’s something you care about. We didn't have breakfast here, but instead grabbed pastries on our way to the bus terminal (and got ahead of the strike). If we were to find ourselves in Venice again, we would absolutely stay here again."

"This was my third time staying here and it was nice to see the standard has been maintained since my first stay in 2008. It’s in an excellent location and that’s the most important thing in Venice, the ease of arrival/departure. I saw so many people lugging their bags up and down the bridges of Venice, whereas all I had to do was walk a short distance from St Lucia Station. Being at the top of the city in Cannaregio means that all of Venice is in front of you and at your feet, literally, you walk everywhere. The hotel is inside a lovely old Venetian building, whilst inside it's all marble and clean lines. I paid a really good price for a week in Venice in the middle of summer. My room was on the first floor and very comfortable with a double bed, work table, kettle with tea & coffee, luggage rack, TV and free WiFi. I had a typical Venetian view over the lane from the window. The washroom was a good size with a nice shower. The service and cleanliness was very good. Breakfast is available for a fee onsite. I’ll be back to stay when next in Venice."

"The hotel is conveniently located close to the train station. There are a few steps leading to the front desk and potentially to the rooms. Our stay featured a double bed plus an additional room with a single bed; both were very clean and a good size. While the bathroom isn't huge, I'm quite tall and had no issues at all. We had a great night's sleep. It’s excellent value for money and delivers exactly what you’d expect for this price range. I would definitely return as it checked all my boxes: clean, near the station, comfortable and quiet. I didn’t have breakfast, so I can’t comment on that, but the staff was friendly and very helpful with local information."
