Viktoria Palace Hotel

We had a very good experience here at Viktoria Palace Hotel. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room could have been a little larger and a little quieter, but we knew going in that we were in one of the "cheap" rooms, so it was alright. We loved the location because it was on Lido Island, away from the crowds and craziness of Venice itself. It was really nice to be able to come to a beautiful relaxing quiet location after a day of pressing crowds and sight seeing. It is easy to get to if you understand the water bus and land bus systems there in Venice and Lido; after arriving at the water bus station in Santa Maria Elisabetta, you take a regular bus just 3 or 4 minutes up the road and you're there at the hotel, at the last stop on the bus route (the buses turn around right in front of the hotel). We also loved the breakfast; one of the staff made us coffee every morning (there is also a self serve machine there in the breakfast room); while the "hot" items could have been warmer, there was a great variety of food to choose from, and plenty of it. We have no complaints about the breakfast whatsoever. We would recommend this hotel, and we would definitely consider it an option to stay here again if we came to the Venice/Lido area again.

The property was very classy and clean. Beautiful location overlooking Venice lagoon. The pool was gorgeous and quiet even during peak time. The room was very grand, but small. we did however pay for the cheapest room so we didn’t mind.

Staff were welcoming and genuinely happy to help in any way. Effortless check in and check out, fantastic breakfast. Room was great with fantastic view from the balcony, very comfortable with roomy bathroom and chairs with desk. 10 min from Lido centre and main vaporetto stop, with a bus stop right outside the hotel (fares covered by the vaporetto pass). 8 min walk from tronchetto stop at S.Nicolo.

This place was a really nice hotel. It was half hour to 40mins waterbus ride from venice. Ideal if you want to still be close to venice and not pay extortionate price as some places do in Central venice. It's family friendly as well if you just want to get away as a couple. Breakfast had alot of variety but as we could only eat vegetarian option the variety was still good. There's a little veranda where you can eat on the terrace and enjoy the sea view which is amazing. And the hotel is literally a bus ride away from the waterbus stop and the bus stops right in front of the hotel. Staff were very friendly and had helped in organise a surprise birthday do for me in the room with, cake, balloons and drinks as requested with extra charges of course. Lots of food places nearby that is only a bus ride away. Room is clean and big spacious we had a little balcony which looked over the garden.

The quiet area at the end of the 5 minute bus route along the foreshore to the hotel door. The bus to the town was every 20 minutes and the ferries to the canals just as often. Beats staying in the hustle and bustle of Venice and much cheaper too. Staff were nice and friendly. Breakfast was a veritable buffet of foods. Eggs, bacon, sausage,toast, cereals, cakes, pasteries, fruit, juices, coffee and more.
