amazing hotel

We like how convenient the location is to train station. Everything is walkable. Breakfast is amazing. Our room is and bathroom is spacious, coming from a cruise ship (we appreciate the space). We love how we were given an ancient key to our room. I love the furnitures and decorations. Feels like we're in Italy.

Very low quality hotel but conveniently located near the Academia bridge.
We were across the street in an unstaffed building. Front door was found open on multiple occasions.
Walls were thin so heard neighbor rooms until late at night. I originally booked another hotel, also Belle in title, near the train station and was given this one at the same rate so I felt it was a bait and switch.

The most horrible and creepy experience staying in this room you cannot even walk around. The bedroom is super small, the bathroom everything was broken holes on the walls. The bathroom is a joke. You can’t not even fit there in overall negative experience. The room has smell, dusty and moldy. We got sick with allergy just staying one night. They also assigned us a different room than the one we booked. If you want to have a nice experience in Venice, stay away from this hotel.

Hotel is in a great area. Staff friendly and hotel clean. However the room was the smallest I have ever seen. The window was also small, looked into an alley with scaffolds and smelled really bad. Room noisy from any foot steps from above. Unfortunately for Venice you must put up with these issues if you want to pay a little less.

Great location needs a big refresh and cleaning

We had a quadruple room which was tiny for four people. The bathroom had holes in the wall, and towel rods were loose. Shower was missing something to prevent leaking and so the bathroom was wet each time we used the shower - been a long time issue because there was mould on the bottom of door frame by leak.
The bead cover and decorative pillows were dirty hadn’t been washed.
The location is amazing and it was quiet for being so central located. Breakfast was good.

Venice charmer

This hotel is located very close to the train station and although it is on a busy, crowded street, inside the hotel is very quiet. A free breakfast is included with a hotel stay. The hotel's decor evokes the charm of old Venice. For example there are chandeliers in the hallway and our room had red and gold wall paper. It was a good value for the money.

AC issues

Main Problem was with the AC. We couldn’t control it from the room and it was set to 18C which is really cold (my partner and I are from a very warm climate). Couldn’t turn off or change the AC and the hotel phone didn’t work so we couldn’t call anyone to change it. We both slept terrible because it was so freezing. The bed and pillows were also pretty uncomfortable.

The hotel decor was atrocious to say the least, the beds were super uncomfortable and the shower was dirty. There were no mini fridges and all that. In addition, they don’t even provide you with a number to the reception so you can’t even call them. It’s hard to even get down there as there is only one working elevator. AC does not work! The luggage storage is horrible, there is no security, no tags to identify your bags and etc. The hotel is not responsible for ‘lost’ and ‘stolen’ bags. 😒 Breakfast was nice and staff were super friendly. Apart from the horrible conditions of the room the location was amazing! The hotel was like a 2 min walk from the Venezia S. Lucia train station and was 1 minute away from the Grand Canal.

Shocking room, very poor customer service

Cannot recommend this property. Whilst the room decor is unusual, and the public parts of the hotel have a lovely European style, issues with the room were very bad.

My partner and I were not advised how to use the air conditioning. A back and forth conversation with reception led to an understanding that windows and balcony door had to be fully closed before the ACU would start. And that's when things went downhill...

It was approx 1am (we had a late check-in) when the ACU above the doorway finally kicked into life - and immediately it started dripping dramatically. The carpet was getting soaked and the noise made it impossible to sleep. I put the bathroom bin under the dripping water, with a towel in it to try and dullen the sound of water hitting the bin.

We asked the nightshift manager if we could move to another room. There was only 1 more room available - on checking its state, housekeeping hadn't been in. The bed had been slept in and towels littered the bathroom floor!

So it was back to our original room - if it hadnt been so late, we would have moved to another hotel. How we managed to get any sleep that night, I've no idea - by the morning, the large bathroom bin was half full with water!

Thankfully we only had one night booked here. On checking out, the lady on reception just shrugged her shoulders when I complained. Really I should have insisted on a refund. Will hopefully visit Venice again, but will avoid this hotel.

The property is 170 years old. The staff has limited English command with younger staff more friendlier and accommodating to the our need. It is not pleasant when staff speaks negatively of the guest using a native tongue when I have little understanding. the bathroom is smaller than the new cruise ship staterooms. The four guest room has no walkable space once the sofa bed is used. The air conditioner unit makes a loud noise.

The hotel is located three minutes from the central station and the edge of Venice. It has a supermarket a few doors down. It cannot beat the convince of visiting Venice and back on the train to the next stop.

It is for a budget traveler looking for convincing and secure property. However, one should evaluate another surrounding property.

Paid for a triple room, when we arrived they gave us a room with a single bed and said we can’t change it till tomorrow. Property was dirty with mold and very dim lighting in the stairwell , staff told us the elevator was out of service when we arrived and had to carry luggage up and down stairs. Staff was arguing with me about the room and why he gave us a single room, his reason was there are 2 adults, I replied I paid for a triple room I should get a triple room. He was nasty and said tomorrow we will fix it, my stay was only 2 days. AC problems too. Next morning they gave us the correct room but we had to stay one night in the single room.

It’s hard to know where to begin. The beds were hard as a rock, as a side sleeper I woke up in pain in my hips at 3:30 am and had to take a Motrin and stuff a down jacket under my hip so I could fall asleep - which did not happen until 5 am. We had to ask for an extra pillow as ours was so old it was about 1” thick. The decor was atrocious, which really would not have bothered me except for the dust that the fabric and padded walls, curtain and carpet retain. So anyone with dust allergies beware. Despite being on Zyrtec my nose was extremely stuffed by morning. The heater worked but would not adjust. It was stuck in hot on on. We called the front desk for help and they said 20 minutes but never arrived. We intermittently opened and closed the window throughout the night in order to not cook or freeze. The toilet ran and had to be jiggled to stop every time you flushed and the windows would not lock. There was no refrigerator in room. On the upside, the room was dark and quiet and the breakfast was good. It had scrambled eggs, very important to me. If hard beds, allergies, and sleeping in a sauna doesn’t bother you, this may be a place for you.

On the photo, this place looks nice, but looks can be deceiving. The room is so small that didn’t have any place put our two luggage. They put us a room on the first floor right next to stair case. We opened the window a little bit to get fresh air( air conditioning wasn’t working), more than 20 mosquitos came through the window started biting us. I told a guy at the front desk about it and asked if they had a bug spray, he said he couldn’t find it and told us to buy it at the store and talked to the morning front desk person to get a reimbursement.
So I bought ( paid $5.99) it, sprayed the entire room.
Next morning, I had explained her what happened and asked reimbursement ,she
said she couldn’t reimburse me because they had a mosquito spray equipped, but front desk guy couldn’t find it. On my way check out, I just left the bug spray on the front desk counter to use it for other customers.
I felt that employees here wouldn’t care about customer’s well -being.
I definitely would not recommend this place

Cheerful in disastrous circumstances!

Unfortunately, our stay at the Belle Époque coincided with the worst Acqua Alta for 50 years and the hotel-like everywhere in Venice- was flooded. Thus, the average rating for cleanliness, comfort etc.
I have to say though, that the staff kept the hotel running in exceptionally difficult circumstances, in a cheery and pragmatic manner, and have to thank them for that as it certainly wasn’t the approach taken to visitors by most Venetians we encountered during our stay.

The room was stuffy and made us feel claustrophobic, the plus was that it was half a block from the train station, this was the reason why we booked it there, but upon arrival was offered instead of two twin bed a single double bed and barely had room to move around the sides of the bed. Offered an attic room which was more like punishment, so many people had left the hotel but they only offered two rooms, we went to the sister hotel on the other side of the island, the room was nicer and with two beds, we slept well just had to run to the train station the next morning. it was a memorable overnight stay in Venice.

At one time, this was a grand hotel. Now, it's just faded and dirty. On the surface, it looks great with marble and beautiful chandeliers and light fixtures. The common areas are nice and the sink with live fish by the bathrooms was cute. There's an elevator. The breakfast was decent. The location was easy and convenient from the train station. The staff was helpful. There were lots of shops around it.

However, the room needed a good scrubbing. The wall coverings were fabric which was interesting and bright. The fabric must have absorbed the dirt and didn't make up for the scuffed woodwork and icky carpet. My room needed a little, no, a lot of love. We faced the back and it was quiet. However, hot water was non-existent even late at night.

I wanted to love this hotel but I just couldn't get passed the grimy feeling and lack of hot water. I'm glad we only stayed one night because more would have felt like an ordeal. I'd say it was an adequate passing-through hotel but do not linger.

Fantastic little hotel in a great area! After reading reviews we were just expecting a base so on arrival we were so surprised! It’s so easy to find, minutes from the bus or train station (so forget those expensive transfers!) and it’s in a great area for eating out, lots of tourist menus around 10-15 euro’s per person. Arrival at the hotel bought smiles, it might be small but it’s beautiful! Check in was fast and friendly, room tax mentioned so no issues on departure, note we were prepaid but tax is mentioned in the small print and applies to all hotels in Venice. Room beautiful! Yes, on the small side but perfectly adequate, balcony overlooked a small courtyard but didn’t venture out as temperatures were near freezing! Bathroom very small but functional, shower was excellent! We visited in January and the room was always lovely and warm... very welcome after a hard days exploring! Breakfast I couldn’t fault, cereals, fruit, yoghurt, pastries, cake, juice, coffee. Hot selection eggs, bacon, sometimes sausage but if your British please remember you are in Italy! There’s plenty of choice and the breakfast room is lovely! Overall could not fault this hotel for the price (we paid around £45 per night for two of us including breakfast!). Around 30 minutes stroll to San Marco or the Vaporetto stop is minutes away. Wouldn’t hesitate to use again 😊

Comfortable hotel, great for transport links.

Stayed here before. Really handy for the railway station. Clean, comfortable, efficient. Good breakfast, venetian style decor, not the most picturesque spot!

3 nights stay for 4 nights paid

The Hotel is quite OK, the Single room very small, but elegant, without fridge and kettle, but with the safe. Bathroom OK.
No welcome drink, no free bottle of water in the room for welcome. No water or coffee in the lobby.
No lift to come to my room, but it was, happilly, on the first floor.
Good breakfast (cold and hot buffet) with everything, but no fresh fruit.
The Reception staff very kind, especially miss Sara.
I booked and paid the Hotel Belle Epoque by Hotels. com from Dec. 23 till 27 (4 nights), but I had to change it for one day, as my Cousin invited me for his 70 birthday celebration on Dec. 23. I asked to come on Dec. 24 and leave on Dec. 28.
It was possible, but I had to pay additional fee over 40 euros. That was really unfair. I decided to come on Dec. 24 and to leave on Dec. 27. So, I paid for 4 nights and I stayed in hotel 3 nights only.
That was very bad deal with Hotels.com and I decided I am dealing no more with them, even if I was good and faithful Customer and I had big plans with them.

Hotel is a little dated, but its right next to the Venice train station and is reasonably priced. The room we reserved was very nice and had it's own bathroom. Hotel has free breakfast, though we did not take advantage of it.

Venice doesn't have to break the bank!

Charming very Venice-like hotel. Our room was very small even by european standards so staff changed room when one was available. No complaints, will stay again.

Booking with hotel belle epoque which location really near to train station. Within 2 mins walking. But due to hotel energy supply issue, we are required to change to another hotel which are around 23 mins walking. This is the only thing that make us disappointed.
