I stayed 2 nights with my daughter and paid over 200 euros per night for a really awful room. The room on the ground floor was noisy , the wall had scuff marks on it, there was a damaged headboard still screwed to the wall with no bed, the room had very little daylight as the one window was tucked... more

Stayed one night on our way to another part of Italy. Small quaint hotel. The location is good - approx. 10 minutes walk from Piazzale Roma and the Santa Lucia train station. Rooms were small but ok for Venice when you spend very little time indoors. One gripe I have is that when booking the hotel I requested a cot... more

Myself and my friend have just returned from a three night stay at this hotel and I decided to write a review because I consulted the reviews on here before I booked. Of course all reviews have to be taken with the understanding that most people will only write something if they had an expereince that was at one end... more

A few years ago, the Hotel Basilea was wonderful--a small hotel in a great location near the train station as well as San Polo. The staff--every one--was superbly helpful and kind. THEN the hotel was sold and became its dire opposite. The new owners seem to have specialized in hiring low-pay help whom they appear to treat like slaves. The... more

We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Basilea with its central location (near the train Terminal) and easy to get to from everywhere. The room was the classic Venetian experience with the imitation Louis XIV furniture and we loved it. Bathroom was clean and the staff were really good. Breakfast was very ample and set up us nicely for the... more

Stayed here with my family before departing on a cruise to Greece. They accomidated all 6 of us in 3 rooms for a weekend stay. Everything was clean and the staff was very attentive. They even have AC units! A must in Venice during the summer months. The breakfast was more than enough. They even made eggs if you'd like.... more

When I booked the hotel, there wasn't a room left in the main hotel, so I was booked into the 2 star annex. I had a single room to myself, and bathroom. The room was tiny but adequate and clean with airconditioning, good window coverings, and cable tv (CNN). The only real complaint I had was the bathroom. It was... more

If you've stayed in city hotels and are realistic about the fact 'you get what you pay for', this is an excellant value for money hotel. We were given a free upgrade to the 3* area of the hotel as I e-mailed the hotel prior to arrival and gave some bull ---- about getting engaged...if you don't ask you don't... more

We were pleased with our two-night stay at the Hotel Basilea, in a room that fondly became known as our 'chandelier closet'. We stayed in a building across the way from the main hotel and lobby. Our room was wide enough to accommodate a twin bed and a sink and long enough for two beds. A chandelier hung from the... more
