Now, keep in mind that we paid $59/night including taxes for this so we are super-happy. Very good location in Lido - 15 min by waterbus to St Marco square in Venice. Good breakfast. Relatively quiet. Rooms had good decor and were a bit smallish, but so what? - this is Europe, not Texas :-) The staff was friendly and... more

We recently stayed at this hotel for three nights and would recommend the Riviera to anyone looking to stay in Venice. The hotel is right across from the boat stop to either Venice or to Murano. Boat #1 stops at this location and is the boat to take to Venice, including the length of the Grand Canal. The room we... more

I'm so happy that we booked a room at this hotel! Our room was spacious, modern and clean. Even though we decided not to book a lagoon view, we got a lovely room with a good view onto the street and a balcony. The breakfast was very good. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

The rooms are small (even for Europe), but the staff was very helpful and the hotel was very clean. The hotel is a small, family run... more

We stayed for 3 nights and thoroughly enjoyed everything about it. Our room (#23) had a fantastic view of St. Mark's Square across the Lagoon, was VERY spacious and clean. Breakfast was very good, just the right amount of variety (meats, cheese, bread along with usual breakfast things). So simple to get to from the airport by taking an Alilaguna... more

We stayed at the Riviera for 3 nights in Oct. 07 as part of a Go Ahead tour and found the hotel to be wonderful. It was very clean. Our room was like a mini-suite and very large by European standards. It is located on Lido Island and it is a great location to chill out after the crowds in... more
