Hotel Giardinetto

Overall, beware that this is NOT a hotel but a badly run B&B. It is cheap-ish for Venice but you get what you pay for. Pay a bit extra and go somewhere else. I would not stay here again. Details below. Positives: - Location: You can see the vaparetto stop from the hotel window. You will be getting on at the first stop of the vaparetto so always guaranteed a seat. There are lots of nice restaurants nearby that are reasonably priced. - Cheap for Venice (but you get what you pay for) - Room has a fridge and a safe Negatives: - Breakfast is very basic (but free so I guess you get what you pay for) - Bedding is not changed during your stay - The water pressure in the shower was terrible; the shower flooded every time we washed - The room is pretty dated; the bed is uncomfortable - Reception is unavailable most hours of the day (definitely no one there after 4pm) - Toiletries: Make the most of the ones you receive on arrival. We were running low on shower gel but it was not replenished. We then specifically asked reception to put more shower gel in our room and they said they would. They didn’t. And by the time we got back to the room from our day out sightseeing, everyone had gone home and reception was closed. So no shower gel.

Very pleasant hotel with great location. Friendly and helpful staff. Location very close to water taxis and beautiful beach for when you need a break from sightseeing. Room could have had tea and coffee making facilities and only one plug socket was not helpful but overall I would recommend.

Great location, clean and comfortable rooms, good breakfast and very helpful hotel staff.

The property was fine bathroom could be bigger as toilet so close to wall and shower .Also the dining area could be made bigger

Very good location, convenient to the vaporetto and the main Street. The shower was very leaky, but the amenities were all fine.

Facilities and room were lovely, staff were nice and helpful! Would stay again.

Great located, right across the street is the Vaporetto station from Lido. Room was very clean and room size sufficient for a few nights. The bathroom ist really small. The Shower is at ground level. The drainage is unfortunately overburdened by taking a normally shower, so it could be possible that the water flows through the bathroom. The staff is very service-oriented. On request we have received a room overlooking Venice. The offer at the breakfast is very limited, especially with the rolls, but it's ok for a few days.

It was a great location The check out is way too early But the room although small was nice with a view

The location is good if you don’t mind being on top of a noisy bus stop. There are no amenities, no reception on arrival (key in an envelope) and the room 102 is claustrophobic, small and dark. We asked for the safe to be re-opened and for the room to be sprayed for the multiple mosquitoes but the staff did not see to it before we left. I would not recommend this hotel even at a cheap rate.

Great little hotel, spotlessly clean, very near the boat stop, but at night you get no noise thanks to the good double glazing, 10 mins walk to the free part of the beach. Simply continental breakfast is included with juice, cereal, pastries, cheese, meats, yoghurt, hot drinks are made to order. Would definitely stay again
