Stayed here on May 28th to June 1st. Location is excellent - easy access to the water buses and an easy walk from the Roma Plaza. Our room opened onto a courtyard which was a nice place to sit after a busy day. The room was a good size and always clean. Had a wonderful soaking tub in the bathroom.... More

No complaints about the size of our room...it is Venice after all and its a renovated palace and you don't expect a modern American hotel. The rooms were quaint and clean. we would have liked free wifi in our room but it was available in the lobby. The location was stunning and you could see the hotel as soon as... More

Even basic facilities and general staff friendliness were missing. The breakfast spread was basic. The rooms were very small. Basic features like water and kettle etc were missing. The staff were however helpful I suggesting how we move about the city and also let us know of good places to eat.

We enjoyed a wonderful (very delayed!) honeymoon at this hotel. Couldn't ask for a better location as is close to the train station or if you travelled like us near to the bus depot. Venice is like a maze so was great being so close to stations. Hotel is decorated in typical Venice fashion - very over the top! Drinks... More

Nice hotel with good location. We were part of a tour group and enjoyed many wonderful cities in Italy and had great experiences in each. While we had a great time in Venice, we were very disappointed in our room size. While we did not expect to have a large room, we also did not expect a room that could... More

Great location opposite the railway station and over the bridge on the Grand Canal. Rooms are small but beautifully furnished and spotlessly clean. Breakfast was good and typical of most Italian hotels. Staff were helpful and efficient. The shutters of our bedroom opened on to a beautiful window box and the sight and sounds of the beautiful city of Venice.... More

We travelled in a large group and were split between two hotels Carlton On The Grand and San Cassiano. We stayed in Hotel Carlton On The Grand which is in a great location just a short walk from the P. Roma (Bus station), opposite the railway station and a water taxi stop. We were there for 3 nights and pre... More

Spent our first night in Venice at this hotel and could not believe how dismissive & unhelpful the staff at the front counter were. When we arrived in Venice we were 5 weeks into a 6 week trip and previously had experienced no staff issues having travelled through Scotland, England, France & Italy. We changed Hotels & found the staff... More

Location is wonderful - directly across from P Roma and the airport bus stop. Rooftop bar is great experience but drinks can be a bit expensive. Our room had no view and looked directly onto the adjacent building - however the room and ensuite was spacious, decor nice and very clean. So it is not a new modern hotel and... More
