STARHOTELS SPLENDID VENICE

Lovely old property right on the canal! Delicious breakfasts, comfortable room, and helpful staff. This hotel is within walking distance to San Marco Square and many tiny, twisty paths lined with touristy shops.

Before booking, I had read several reviews mentioning problems with the air conditioning, but I assumed the issue had been resolved. Unfortunately, it had not. Our room was extremely hot throughout our stay because the air conditioning was not working properly. We reported the problem and asked for it to be fixed, but nothing changed, and we were never offered another room. Sleeping comfortably was very difficult. The Wi-Fi in our room was also too weak to do any work, making it impossible to rely on for emails or video calls. The hotel is in a beautiful location, and the staff were generally pleasant. However, for a hotel in this price range, the failure to address these issues was very disappointing. If you are planning to visit Venice during the summer, I cannot recommend staying here until the air conditioning issues have been properly resolved.

A most lovely hotel - the beautiful furnishings and decor enhance the feeling of style in this hotel. The location is perfect, being a short walk from the main sights and close to lots of amazing restaurants. Surprisingly quiet given its city location.
