“Sumptuous Hotel beautifully situated at the beach – mediocre service”

Reviewed May 17, 2013 NEW

Ideally located. Old Luxury Hotel tastefully refurbished. Big rooms (Grand deluxe). Big bathroom but small uncomfortable shower in the bathtub, although there is plenty of floor space to install a luxurious shower. Excellent breakfast. Nice pool and private beach areas. There is a 15 min. boat shuttle service offered by the Hotel; every hour to and from Piazza San Marco... More

“Will definitely go again....”

Reviewed May 14, 2013

I booked a last minute break to the Hotel Excelsior Venice Lido for 4 days in May 2013. Looking at the previous reviews I wasn't entirely sure what to expect but as it was a short break I was happy to take the chance. Also the hotel was reported to have recently reopened after a major refurbishment so was happy... More

“Not what I expected!”

Reviewed May 12, 2013

The notion of "avoid having high expectations to spare yourself from disappointment" perfectly applies here! Pro's: The hotel has a beautiful location - away from the traffic and noise of tourists at the old city. The hotel offers a complimentary water shuttle to the San Marco and back several times throughout the day. Make sure you stand in line 15... More

“Amazing !!!!”

Reviewed April 24, 2013

Hotel is stunning and in a perfect location for visiting Venice. The staff were friendly and went out of their way to help you. The free shuttle to Venice was a special treat and one we apreciated very much. It was nice to come back to the hotel, away from the hustle and bustle at the end of our day.... More

“Disappointing”

Reviewed April 22, 2013

We went late April arriving late Thursday evening. The hotel was dead, no atmosphere, but we were upgraded to a lovely 7th floor room with a balcony. It was a battle to get food other than a "toastie" at 11.25pm. The food and bar drinks are overpriced and nothing special. Building work going on immediately on the beach. Air conditioning... More

“A restful day in the Spring Sunshine at The Excelsior”

Reviewed April 18, 2013

For years every time I see the Venice Film Festival on TV I make myself a promise,"One day I will visit The Excelsior" well last Monday I made it. The hotel is open after the winter break, the beach is still hidden behind banks of sand which are put there to keep the sea out, but work was apace getting... More

“This hotel was such a treat, with Movie Star Ambience everywhere you turn.”

Reviewed April 7, 2013

OH MY GOSH!!! We had no idea what a great find we had until we arrived and checked into this magnificent hotel. It felt more like a palace, than a hotel. It was on an island right in Venice. A beautiful beautiful private boat takes you back and forth on the Grand Canal to the main part of Venice. This... More

“Not in central Venezia, but an amazing property”

Reviewed March 17, 2013

We stayed at the Excelsior Venice for 2 nights in September when Venice was a little more quiet (after the Film Festival) and the Lido season was at an end. The hotel is sumptious and has a Moorish, or Moroccoan design that evokes a more Arabian Nights/Alhambra experience than a Venitian palace. We didn't swim in the Adriatic, but our... More

“Outdated with poor service”

Reviewed March 15, 2013

The hotel is certainly not a 4 or 5-star hotel, it's probably a 3-star hotel. I've been to a few of the nice hotels in Italy and I am quite forgiving, not very picky, but always happy with the hotels I stay at. This one, hovever, is NOT up to standard. It's old and outdated, needs remodelling, and the restuarants... More
