We stayed here in two rooms for two nights recently. The hotel is in a good location, near the Grand Canal and Train Station, however on a quiet side canal. The rooms were adequate, although bathrooms were quite old. Venice is very expensive, and this hotel did not seem good value to me, however I do not have a comparison... More

My boyfriend and I stayed here during a trip around Italy. It's one of the best hotels I've stayed in, it looks really good, the room was big and was clean etc. It was also one of the more expensive rooms during our trip but then I think Venice is generally more expensive than other cities in Italy. The area... More

Unlike Derek, our stay at the Gardena seems to have been quite different. The Front Desk staff were throughly miserable, never smiled and were not particularly helpful. The room we were allocated must have been the smallest in the hotel. It was little more than a boxroom with a tiny bathroom, the view was over back yards. Other guests suggested... More

Excellent location just minutes away from the railway station. This is the ideal hotel to explore and enjoy Venice. The day starts with a simple breakfast which leaves no wishes open. Great coffee and you even have the possibility to sit outside. The hotel is located on a side canal to the canal grande and very quiet. Enjoyed every minute... More

A wonderful boutique hotel in the heart of Venice, perfect location off the Grand Canal. The service and staff were great. The service from the front desk managers Peitro and Gabriel was spectacular! They helped tremendously. The breakfast was perfect and the hotel was great walking distance from most attractions. I wish we had a few more days in Venice... More

We have spent 2 night in this hotel that we have known thank to a "Groupon" deal. We have decided to travel by train there and that was an awesome choice since the train station was 2 min away from the station on foot (just need to cross the bridge and continue straight on). Which was reaaaaallly good. Very well... More

This hotel turned out to be a perfect choice for a couple of fist time visitors to Venice. As previously stated, only a few minutes walk from the bus station but far enough (other side of Grand Canal) so it’s not in view. This is important because the last thing you want to do after a flight is mess about... More

March 2013 - Gardena Hotel was the first hotel we saw from the walking bridge into Venice. Exterior and lobby looked nice so we asked to see a room. They gave us a choice and we picked the basic room because we planned to spend very little time in the room. Basic it was indeed. Very tiny bathroom and carpet... More

We spent 4 nights at the Hotel Gardena booked through Monarch. It was an interesting experience due to the hotel downstairs being very opulent, all mirrors, Murano Glass,chandeliers and plate glass windows where the hotel reception was situated. The breakfast room was very swish and elegantly painted. Upstairs was a little different. We stayed in No. 11 so we cannot... More
