Don’t do it!

4 flights of dirty carpet stairs to a room filled with mosquitos and dead ones on the walls. Broken shower head. Tiny bathroom. Super old and gross. Sign in the room said “sorry the government won’t let us update” hmm ever heard of paint and some modern furniture? Thinking the reviews in here are fake because it was not even close to good.

Great location and truly wonderful staff

The location is hard to beat, tucked along a peaceful canal but just minutes from many of Venice’s busiest sights. My room was simple and minimalistic, and while not particularly spacious, the air conditioning made a big difference during the warmer days of my stay. What really stood out was the staff: warm, attentive, and consistently helpful. Daily interactions with them were a pleasure. Breakfast was totally adequate, with fresh croissants and made-to-order cappuccinos adding a nice touch to the mornings.

This was a great location for our vacation as it was centrally located to the things we wanted to see and do. We took the train to Venice and once we arrived, we needed to purchase tickets outside by the canal for the water bus. The hotel is on a canal which is lovely but it's not where the boat drops you off. You will need to walk about 10 minutes to the hotel. There is no elevator but the hotel has a lot of charm. The staff was very helpful. The rooms and bathrooms are a bit small but roomier than what we had in Paris. The room was clean when we got there and was cleaned every day we were there. There is water and tea available throughout the day. The breakfast was great! The staff also helped us figure out the Alilaguna boat location and which boat to take to get to the airport (It will take about 1 hour 20 minutes from the dock to the airport.) Overall, a fantastic experience with this hotel!

The room was a typical room you can expect in a European hotel, but it gets 5 stars for the location, view and friendliness of the staff. I was amazed to be able to find such an affordable hotel in such a beautiful location. It's within walking distance from several restaurants and major attractions, but the hotel itself is located on a little side street where almost no tourists go, so you're getting the true Venetian experience.
This is also the only hotel I've stayed at in Europe that had a proper front desk.
GPS is HIGHLY recommended, as the property will be very difficult to find without it.

The only thing I will complain about is the breakfast lady was a little annoying. She kept coming over to our table and putting food on it, when we just wanted to be left alone and grab what WE want ourselves. She also rationed out the meat, which is the one thing we wanted more of.

Within walking distance of St. Mark's Square, situated on a small canal, the Locanda Silva was clean and comfortable. Friendly front desk person; check-in was quick. Note that the front desk is up one flight of stairs, and then two flights of stairs to our room, which was spacious and clean. Comfortable bed. The bathroom and shower is on the small side, but manageable. There was an armoire, desk, and wall TV. Reading lamp on the nightstands (thank you!). The front desk is manned until 11pm. Breakfast comes with the room; served at 8am in a community dining room. Hot breakfast items, pastries, fruit, coffee; all delicious! We enjoyed our nightly walk from St. Mark's Square through the neighborhood and along the canal.

This older, smaller hotel is located near San Marcos square and shopping. Our family stayed in a quad room with 4 comfortable twin beds and a private bath/shower with plenty of hot water. The air-conditioner condenser was dripping water at night, and the staff got it fixed the next day. Daily cleaning with fresh towels. The hotel staff was helpful and polite.

This hotel is very well placed being very close to many restaurants, cafes and shops. It is a very basic hotel, the rooms have neither TV, tea making equipment nor safes. It could benefit from redecorating but it is clean and the beds are quite comfortable although the pillows are flat and hard like biscuits! The face towels provided are like tea towels but the bath towels, although quite small, are at least proper towels. The shower rooms are very small indeed but the water pressure is adequate to provide a good shower.The breakfast is served by very pleasant ladies and is plentiful and varied. There is quite a steep flight of stairs up to the reception and more to the rooms and there is no lift.

It was quiet, off the beaten track but only five minutes away from St. Marks. the drawback could be, for older people, there is no lift but otherwise everything was very good.

Great IF you don't mind a rough sleep

Small, I can understand that. The staff were friendly but you could never get a straight answer because the guy just wanted to joke with you for five minutes with every question. We wanted to do laundry and he said they didn't have a service, even though it was online, so we went and paid 17 euros to do laundry to find out later that they in fact had the service the floor above us. I don't know how he didn't know that.

My big complaint, which is why I wouldn't recommend this hotel, is that the bed was the most uncomfortable bed in Europe that we slept on. We stayed in 8 hotels total and this was the worst. You could literally feel the springs with every movement. It felt like there were springs with a sheet over them. Horrible nights sleep those two nights.

It's also about impossible to find if you don't have google maps going. We didn't pay for international data and wished we would have.

For the price it was clean, in a good neighborhood and the staff was friendly. Oh yeah the breakfast was flipping amazing! Best free breakfast we had all trip but like I said, impossible to sleep on that mattress.

We stayed 3 nights in Locanda Silva. You couldn't ask more for this price in the heart of Venice - good neighborhood, restaurants and shops around, 7 min walking distance to St. Marco square and vaporeto (local boat transport). We picked it base on the reviews. They were right and we were happy with our choice. The room was clean, the bed – comfortable, the blanket and pillow – cotton that made our sleep good after long hours walking. There is a terrace on the roof from where you can see the top of St. Marco Cathedral (200m). The hotel is on a Fondamenta (a street that runs alongside a canal). Follow carefully their instructions how to find the hotel. You easily can be lost. Have a map of Venice and enjoy!

Comfortable and Friendly Staff

You'll need to be ready to walk and climb a bit to get there, but we thought it was worth it. Centrally located; friendly service; clean and bright rooms. You'll want to find it in the daylight and be aware of the stair climbing. Don't expect much of a view from rooms, but there are 2 small roof-top terraces that provide a little Venetian ambiance.
