Venice Cannaregio 5-star Hotels

I chose a new hotel that is not on the main island for my adventure. Let me talk about it first: the hotel’s surrounding environment is pretty good, it’s close to the railway station, the hotel’s internal room facilities are also new, the cleanliness is quite high, and the front desk service is also warm. Let’s talk about improvements: the hotel provided free water on the first night, but did not provide it on the second and third nights. I subconsciously thought that the cleaning staff forgot to place it and ordered room service to bring the water. Oh, vomit blood. . . . . In fact, they can remind that there is a charge. . . I didn't tell us these details when I checked in. . . Breakfast is so-so, only some simple croissant, square slices of bread, biscuits, fruit drinks and the like, hot food needs to be ordered. It takes 20 minutes to walk to Piazza San Marco. I haven't studied how to ride on the water bus. It is not convenient to buy or take the elderly and children if you walk. People with good legs and feet are free. Anyway, my leg is broken. . .

We left the hotel at 7 o'clock in the morning, and the hotel breakfast started at 8 o'clock. I asked the front desk staff the night before that we couldn't make it in time for breakfast, and the gentleman said he would prepare it for us. The next day, each of us received a large bag of breakfast, including yogurt, juice, biscuits, cakes, and fruits. There were so many of them that we couldn’t finish them. We had to throw away the ones we couldn’t bring into the security check, which was a pity.

Beautiful stay, the place is truly gorgeous, it does justice to the price we paid. Breakfast nothing to say, excellent with extremely rich à la carte service. Excellent room with amazing frescoes, nice view and a very nice bathroom, shame about the restaurant closed at this time but we will definitely be back.

The train station takes a taxi (boat) - 5 minutes to the hotel pier, and the public pier is at the hotel entrance, very convenient. This time the room was divided into the top floor with a terrace. It is said to be the only one. It is simply unparalleled scenery and enjoyment. I have been to Venice before, but I never thought I could enjoy the skyline of this beautiful city like this. I really hope to stay in this room next time. The hotel breakfast room also shocked me, walking up the grand staircase through the gorgeous hall, immediately reminiscent of the marquis and ladies who had been here all day long hundreds of years ago. Compared with the environment breakfast itself is a bit inferior, but it doesn't matter. There are delicious things everywhere, and this environment is rare. Dinner is also enjoyed at the hotel, the price is not expensive, and the taste is much better than the restaurant outside, I think it is not easy to find a decent restaurant in Venice, rather than wasting time recommending hotel dining.

Went for fine dining experience after seeing the hotel on a gondola ride and loving the outdoor seating. The restaurant outdoor seating is beautiful, and set right on the grand canal therefore a lonely atmosphere to eat a nice meal in. Our waiter was extremely friendly and helped us choose the wine with expert knowledge of the local grapes and varieties. The food was absolutely delicious but on the very pricey side. Nice as a treat.

We stayed in a canal view room and while the room was very compact, it was beautifully decorated & furnished. It was sparkling clean & had a lovely balcony overlooking the grand canal. The breakfast was great- you could even make your own pancakes! The hotel staffs were all really polite, friendly and helpful. The location is perfect if you arrive by train or bus as only about. 5 minute walk from the train station. I would definitely stay here again if or when I revisit Venice.

I was very worried before I arrived because of the mixed reviews, so I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived. Rooms are clean. The location was great as it's only a few minutes walk from the railway station, and it's right next to the canal. However, breakfast was interesting as we were surrounded by aggressive bees and birds which were ready to steal your food anytime. Staffs were helpful. Special thanks to the waitress who helped calm my daughter when she was stung by a bee.

an excellent hotel with excellent service. We had 5 rooms reserved at the hotel. We left the hotel to go to Ravenna via the trains. We left our Apple air pods in of one the rooms. The gentleman from the front desk (morning shift - sorry I don’t remember his name) on his own walked over the train station, tracked us down and surprised us to give us the air pods. I travel a lot and have never seen such exceptional service. Literally, because of his level of exceptional service from when we checked in to now, we decided to change our hotels (when we return from the cruise) to stay again at The Carlton because of his above and beyond attitude. Thank you for your hospitality and outstanding experience from the point of when we first checked in.

Disappointed by the level of service and outdated hotel. For that very pricy 4 stars hotel, I would have appreciated a higher level.. the staff was not particularly friendly neither helpful. The room was very dark with casi no natural light, not renovated like the booking picture. The bathtub was broken, they send someone that didn’t care of it and said it was indeed broken, reception didn’t propose anything in exchange. I ended up trying to fix myself for 1/2h. Bit sad.. also the Jacuzzi/public bath or gym are not accessible for free. You have to pay and book ahead.. you would imagine it’s included in the price. Positive side: very well located in the center, in the main luxury street, explain the price I guess? The rooftop is really the highlight with beautiful sunset, where we drunk our complementary bottle. The breakfast is really good, one of the best so far. Will not come back, not worthy.

We arrived via Water taxi directly from the airport to the Canel Grande's private jetty and drinks balcony. If you can afford the €130 25 minutes journey, and are new to the city like us, it's amazing introduction. We felt quite the film stars! Our welcome was incredible. We got to the hotel very early - 9ish and our room wasn't ready, only to be expected. So we dropped our bags off and headed off to explore and get lost in Venice for the first and not the last time over the next 4 days we were there. Thank heavens for Google maps! Coming back around midday our room was still not ready, which gave us the opportunity to drink Aperol Spritz - the drink of Venice on the Hotels balcony while watching the water traffic on the Grand Canal by. Mesmerising... When our room was ready our baggage already there, along with a bottle of prosecco on ice, and hand written note wishing us a happy 35th wedding anniversary. We chose a room without a view which not only saved money, but made us go out and enjoy the city. The hotel has plenty of seating outside and in to enjoy the view anyway. It's is in a cul-de-sac, that makes it feel very private, as few people go down it. The room are in the Italianate Baroque style. Very clean and comfortable. The staff are impeccable, friendly, informed and helpful. It felt like a happy place to work. Note: Due to the small seating area inside, the excellent breakfast needs to be booked. The number 1 canal bus, a 3 minute walk from the hotel that takes you directly to San Marco Square. We only once asked for restaurant recommendation (La Patatina). This was the best of the best of meals we had in Venice. But at wine starting at €32 a bottle, expect a bill of around €110 for 2. From The Hotel is a marvel, we loved every moment were there. Over 3 days we walked over 25 miles, of this grand and historic city, saw great works of art in several museums and churches but missed much more. So, will we go back? Definitely. And Canal Hotel is where we will stay!
