We stayed here on our way back to the States after a cruise. There were 4 of us in a quad room--double bed w 2 twin beds. A little cramped, but the bathroom was huge, with lovely blue tile. We couldn't get the room cold enough using the A/C, so we opened the windows wide to let in the breeze, and, yes, it was noisy, but we slept anyway. This hotel is only 2 blocks from the water taxi stop (so not too far, even for me!, to drag my luggage) and a decent walk to the beach, where you can rent umbrella and chairs for 22 Euro. It is situated in the midst of many cafes and restaurants, and bike rentals. We had a delicious meal at the pizzeria ristorante across the street from the hotel, 2 of us had pizza, 2 had pasta, w drinks it was 62 Euro. We also ate a late-night snack of sandwiches and beverages at the little wine bar right next to the hotel, which only cost 40 Euro. When you compare either of these meals with the desserts (just two) and drinks we had in St. Mark's Square in Venice that cost 71 Euro, you see that Lido can be a good value for your money. It's slower-paced, less expensive, has bus service, a beach, and is just a taxi-ride away from Venice. The taxi from Piz. Roma (Venice) to Lido was 10 Euro, and the trip from Lido to the airport was 15 Euro, an easy boat ride, and how wonderful it was not to have to drag our bags through Venice!! After seeing all the inflated prices of the Venice hotels, with some as much as 1500 Euro PER NIGHT, it was so wonderful to find this hotel with breakfast included, for just a mere fraction of that. Breakfast was a nice spread, plentiful and tasty. Lots of room for everyone to sit, with comfortable chairs. Hot foods included eggs, bacon and cocktail wienies. (Why they served those little hotdogs is beyond me.) There was a toaster and a selection of breads. Also pastries, meats and cheese, yogurt and cereal. There was a magnificent beverage machine that dispensed any hot liquid you required, from espresso to cocoa, cappuccino, American coffee to plain hot water. There were pots for hot tea and a juice machine. Two rows of jelly dispensers, and four kinds of honey in dispensers. Really no reason for complaint in this department. Hotel staff was pleasant and friendly. Our bags were taken up to our room and waiting for us. The hotel will store your luggage upon check-out if needed, and will allow you to use the facilities if you have a late flight. The receptionist also gave us some money-saving tips and directions, and was very friendly. There are sitting rooms available in the hotel lobby for guests to lounge in, they are quite comfortable. Yes, it's true, internet isn't free, it costs 3 Euro for 30 mins. or 5 Euro per hour (discount for 4 hours), but they have a computer room and when you pay, it is good for all your WiFi devices as well. For us, this hotel was wonderful and had everything we needed. It was inexpensive, had a free breakfast and close to the beach, restaurants and water taxis. We would stay again.

I was actually pleasantly surprised by this hotel given the price. As someone else has pointed out, Internet is NOT free which is a shame in this day and age. Also "the hotel offers deck chairs and umbrellas" means at a price. That price is far higher than people on the beach charge for the same chairs/umbrella sodon't bother with the Hotel's special deal :-)Other than that, great location and good value. It's not a peacful hotel with a lot of noise at night though.......

This rather cheap hotel is well placed to visit Venice being a 10 minute vaporetto ride from St Marks Sq. The rooms are very small and old fashioned but adequate for a couple of nights if you're on a budget. The breakfast is unimaginative and quite poor but a least the cereals are ok.This hotel is not where to stay for more than a couple of nights and not at all if you're looking for any degree of luxury or service.

We booked another hotel, but they were having some plumbing problems so they put us in this hotel. :-(Cons: very small room. Thin walls. No free Internet. Pros: nice & helpful receptionist. Very close laundry mat, taxi boat, bar, restaurants, shops, beach. I have to admit that since the hotel was very close to the taxi boats, it was a big plus, especially, when it was raining. The hotel we had booked but did not get was quite far. I think the name of that hotel was hotel residence 2000 or something.

I would not recommend this hotel to anyone especially if you are going for economy rooms. The rooms on the 4th floor are all attick room where the ceiling come down and you hit your head all the time. Rooms are too small, bathrooms are small, you can hardly stand in the bath because of slanting ceiling. Room no 430 is worst. No space in the bathroom for toiletries.Ovverall, very bad experience with bumps on our head.paople at reception and in brakfast room were not friedly at all. I would not reccomend this hotel to any one especially if are given economy class rooms.
