BEWARE!

Booked a twin bedded room, but on arrival given a double bed. No alternative offered so as two same sex friends, I had to spend an uncomfortable night on the floor until 2 single beds were provided the following day. This establishment pretends to be a hotel, but is merely a group of rooms up one and two steep flights of stairs above an unconnected restaurant below. There is no lift other than a disabled stairlift to the first floor. It is therefore almost impossible to carry any heavy luggage up or down the steep stairs. There are no facilities in the \"hotel\" other than a tiny breakfast room, which cannot accommodate staying guests at the same time. The picture of the dining room in the description is false, as are I suspect many of the positive reviews of this establishment?? The minibar described in the facilities is merely a fridge. Threre is no way that this accommodation can be described as a 3 star hotel. The only positive description that can be made is that it is clean and in close proximity to the Lido ferry terminal.

I have stayed many times at the Hotel Giardinetto and it has always been a fabulous experience and unbeatable value for money. The location is ideal, right next to the vaporetto stop for easy access into the city, and within a few minutes walk to Lido's beaches. The rooms are clean and well equipped - many with views across the lagoon towards the city, and the staff are always helpful.

Front Desk and Staff were very friendly and helpful even though we checked in late they had the key waiting for us on the front desk, easily helped us finish check in the next morning. Sent directions for us to get in. Helped us with a map of Venice to get around.

breakfast was very yummy, so attentive cute little patio

Only thing was the shower was very small tight definitely one person shower.

Nice stay

Really enjoyed our time there. Loved the smiles and service that the stafff gave. Made us cappucinnos which was good quality in the morning. It is in Lido (last ferry stop) so it's situated far from touristy areas, if you like that. The room like most Italian budget friendly stays are small but adequate. There seems to be a bit of slant on the flooring, a little uneven, but it did not affect our sleep.

Not a 3 star hotel - avoid

Overall, beware that this is NOT a hotel but a badly run B&B. It is cheap-ish for Venice but you get what you pay for. Pay a bit extra and go somewhere else. I would not stay here again. Details below.

Positives:
- Location: You can see the vaparetto stop from the hotel window. You will be getting on at the first stop of the vaparetto so always guaranteed a seat. There are lots of nice restaurants nearby that are reasonably priced.
- Cheap for Venice (but you get what you pay for)
- Room has a fridge and a safe

Negatives:
- Breakfast is very basic (but free so I guess you get what you pay for)
- Bedding is not changed during your stay
- The water pressure in the shower was terrible; the shower flooded every time we washed
- The room is pretty dated; the bed is uncomfortable
- Reception is unavailable most hours of the day (definitely no one there after 4pm)
- Toiletries: Make the most of the ones you receive on arrival. We were running low on shower gel but it was not replenished. We then specifically asked reception to put more shower gel in our room and they said they would. They didn’t. And by the time we got back to the room from our day out sightseeing, everyone had gone home and reception was closed. So no shower gel.

Great located, right across the street is the Vaporetto station from Lido.
Room was very clean and room size sufficient for a few nights. The bathroom ist really small. The Shower is at ground level. The drainage is unfortunately overburdened by taking a normally shower, so it could be possible that the water flows through the bathroom.
The staff is very service-oriented. On request we have received a room overlooking Venice.
The offer at the breakfast is very limited, especially with the rolls, but it's ok for a few days.

The location is good if you don’t mind being on top of a noisy bus stop. There are no amenities, no reception on arrival (key in an envelope) and the room 102 is claustrophobic, small and dark.

I would not recommend this hotel even at a cheap rate.

a very good base from which to explore Venice

We have stayed twice here and enjoyed the quiet of the Lido after the bustle of Venice. The hotel is opposite the Vaparetto station so we were in Venice within minutes,
The Staff were welcoming and helpful and the continental breakfast was fine. The rooms were clean and comfortable ..this is a small quiet hotel which serves its purpose. There are lots of places to eat nearby often much more reasonably priced than the eateries in Venice itself.
This hotel is not at all sophisticated but is simple and represents excellent value for money with easy access to a wonderful city which can be expensive. I would recommend the Vaparetto ticket which you can buy on line..see Venuzia web site and this enables you to hop on and off and includes tranfers to and from the airport.

Nice, budget stay on The Lido

I stayed here for six nights during my first visit to Venice. I booked late and hotels on the Lido offered the best value from what was available. Service was outstanding, breakfast was standard continental fare. The room was small, with a bathroom/shower and only enough room for a double-bed and armoire. The bed was very comfortable and the room was quiet. I slept well. For first time visitors - it was a bit warm for early fall and so I opened a window rather than use the a/c - no screens! Woke up with 18 mosquito bites. I used the a/c from then on and don't blame the hotel, but lesson learned!

Lovely, modern hotel in a great location

This hotel is small and run by some genuinely caring staff who are happy to help whenever you ask. The rooms are modern and well decorated, offering a beautiful view across the water and looking at the city of Venice. The only downside was a rather small bathroom. The location is excellent, with the boats only a few steps from the hotel, and the main street (Santa Maria Elisabetta) about 30 seconds walk away. The beach is also close by, taking around 10 minutes or less to walk.

Value for money. Location can be a problem though

The hotel itself was good. But Lido is not too close from Venice proper and each boat ride to Venice is 7.50 Euros One way. So unless you buy a Venice ACTV pass and also have the time to spare, choose a place on the main island i.e Venice. This hotel was good value for money though

The bathroom is so tiny, you can barely move. On top of it, it was dirty (the toilet seat had stains and hair on it). The receptionist cleaned the toilet for us and made a note for the housekeepers. The breakfast had very limited options and was only for the early risers. God forbid you are 30 minutes late and you can have hard flavorless croissants.

Comfortable place to stay in a reasonable price

Very conveniently located right across the water bus station; hotel staff was very cooperative and willing to help to make sure that your stay is comfortable; local buses to visit the LIDO island are available right across the hotel; breakfast was good; If someone arrives at the St. Lucia central terminal station by train, or Venice airport, I will advise to purchase 24 hours or 48 hours pass which is good for unlimited rides on any water bus ride or local buses on any island in Venice. This makes it easier to come to the hotel as many times as you wish to do so.

Do stay at Giardinetto. I can say the usual (and true) things, that the location on the Lido was the right compromise between spacious beauty and a brief vaporetto into Venice proper. The four of us were so glad we made that choice. The hotel was charming as well. But the important thing I want to do is praise the staff for the kindness and their help. Dumb me, I left my cell phone behind--well they got it back to me by mail and even carried the charges themselves rather than passing them on to me. Really dear people--thanks,Elisa and Dalila!

Ten minutes walk to the beach and a fifteen minute wonderful vaporetto ride to St Mark's Sq; the best of both worlds.

Best Value for your Money!

We decided to stay on Lido of Venice instead of Venice itself. And it was a good choice. As we arrived with our car, we took the ferry from Tronchetto. The first night we had to park the car on the street (you have to pay EUR 1.20 between 8am and 8pm), afterwards we were allowed to park our car for free at the Marea Partner Hotel on the Lido. The Vaporetto Station for the main line is right in front of the hotel and you reach the centre of Venice in about 15 minutes. The Vaporettos depart every 20 Minutes up late in the evening. Hotel staff is very friendly and helpful. The breakfast offers a good choice and is much better than the italian standard (note: the average italian takes an espresso and a brioche as breakfast). The room is in a very good condition, we had one with a view over Venice. The bath room is very small and if you shower too long, the water will overflow. If we'll ever be back in Venice, we will surely choose Giardinetto again!! Thank you very much!

Close to the ferries. For not being on the main island, the room rate was reasonable. Wish there was an elevator. I was so tired from walking around, I wanted to go to bed early, but both nights, there was screaming and partying from the restaurant/bar below. The town on this island is lovely. A walk down the main street was so enjoyable. So many gelatos and restaurants to choose from. Also enjoyed all the retail shops. Something for everyone.

Breakfast is basic fare, so may disappoint those who like to eat enough to keep them going all day, but we were quiet happy, and who doesn't want to enjoy a pizza and salad lunch in the early afternoon?
We really enjoyed the contrast of staying on the Lido with its more relaxed atmosphere and travelling across the lagoon each day. Would definitely stay here again. Peggy Guggenheim museum well worth a visit!

Hotel was lovely and in a great location. Still within perfect reach of the city and sites but far enough away for a place to retreat to at the end of a long day.
Hotel was in a quite location. No noise could be heard of the outside from your room. Hotel staff are very friendly and can't wait to help you if you need something.

Excellent location close to Vaporetto stop. Quiet.

Very helpful staff. A very pleasant small and personal hotel. A pleasure returning to this hotel after busy days sightseeing. The Lido is so calm and peaceful.

Great Hotel

I recently stayed at this hotel while visiting Venice. The hotel is located on the Lido and very convenient for visiting all parts of Venice. If I was visiting Venice again I would certainly chose this hotel as it was excellent.
The hotel was very clean and the staff were very friendly and helpful. At check-in they provided me with a map of Venice, the vaporetto lines between the Lido and Venice and also some good local restaurants.
My stay at the hotel was perfect.

NOT recommend

The hotel was nice but the staff is what was lacking. They were not friendly to my husband and I during our stay. No greetings when we walked by and overall unkindness to visitors. On our last day, our bags were packed but we wanted to go to the beach one last time before it was time to leave. They would not even let me borrow a towel to take, knowing we would return with it since they were holding our bags. I would NOT recommend this hotel based on customer service alone.

Very handy for the vaporetto, great little hotel.

Very helpful staff providing useful information when asked. The surrounding area will be much improved when the work to pave the square outside the hotel is finished. Although just by the vaporetto stop it was not at all noisy, in fact after a day on your feet in Venice you would not want to walk much further. Also very convenient for getting to and from the airport.

Comfortable beds and very well located

A lovely little hotel with very attentive and friendly staff. Breakfast was adequate, but a little fresh fruit instead of canned fruit salad would do alot to improve the breakfast experience.Very well located across the road from Vaporetta stops and 10 minutes to the beach, with more than sufficient restaurants within a very few minutes walk .Being in the Lido it would have been nice to have somewhere to hang wet bathers and beach towels when returning from the beach.

Was good stay in Lido.

Hotel is new! The room was so clean and staff was nice. If you don't mind staying in Lido instead of Venice main area, we recommend you to stay this hotel.

nice little hotel, friendly staff, fine breakfast, good location in relation to local transport facilities. Major problem was the size of the bathroom, it was really too small, the facilities were fine, but there was hardly any room to get in on your own, let alone to move.

Great for the Vaporetti boats.

Our room was facing front with a great view across to Venice. Location was great for water transport. The bathroom was the smallest I have ever seen - I could put my arms out and put the palms of my hands onto the walls. Tiny! The air conditioning was a bit noisy. Breakfast was ok. The bed was comfy. No elevator.

Very good

The hotel is on Lido, which is a 15 minute boat trip to the main tourist areas. The hotel is very convenient for the boats, which run frequently.

Our room was small, but comfortable.

Breakfast was a basic continental buffet, but was fine.

The staff were friendly and helpful, including by email before we arrived.

Probably easier to stay at than the main island

Everything was very nice and comfortable. Very easy to take the water taxi to and from Venice, near some good shopping in Lido, good breakfast and pleasant staff. FYI - there is no elevator and all of the rooms are not at the ground level.

Convenient location

We enjoyed the location, the cleanliness of the room and the breakfast. The smal room and very small beds, no English TV channels and no elevator were minor inconveniences for a 2 night stay.

Great three day break

Lovely little hotel. The room was comfortable and spotlessly clean. Breakfast was good, helpful staff. Would recommend this hotel for a short break as it is just across the road from the water buses making it easy to get around.
Would have been nice to get a tea or coffee other than at breakfast.

Just perfect

The staff were absolutely delightful. They smiled, explained directions, gave me a sea-view room, and were just a nice bunch. I can't fault them or their services. The venue is a stone's throw away from the waterbus and some 8 minutes walk to the beach.
