We stayed at this hotel last week for 1 night on the way to rome and were very pleased. First impressions were not great, as the man at the front desk seemed rather abrupt. There was a problem with our booking not being confirmed as my card details were incorrect. He explained in an angry tone that I should have... More

we checked in for 3 nights and after 2 hours checked out early! the rooms desperately need to be modernised, they are tiny and not worth the money paid. we stayed in the annex. the location was not even that central, there are plenty of other hotels in better locations. furthermore the keys they gave us had a keychain which...

Room was quite small but had all you need with its own toilet,basin and shower. Double bed was two singles pushed together. Breakfast was good compared to most Italian continental versions with...

Our room was clean and comfortable if a little cramped and quite dark (to be fair, cheap well-lit rooms in Venice are probably hard to find). A big bonus was the free WIFI - I had expected to pay - which helped us plan... More

We always try to stay at the Messner when we visit Venice. We stay in the hotel itself, room had a balcony overlooking the Canal. The location of the hotel is great- just a short walk to the Academia bridge, a truchetto stop, the Guggenheim, and lots of restaurants . And all this without the crowds or noise of Venice.

Just returned from a 4 night stay (24-28th January 2013). Lovely location in quite area but very close to Salute Waterbus stop. Excellent room with ensuite and very comfy bed. We were in the annexe just 50 metres from main hotel. Our room had three big windows overlooking the canal and was perfect. Strolled along canal for breakfast which was... More
