Venice Maggior Consiglio

This hotel is fabulous, I don’t understand how it is a 2 star I would rate it at least a 3/4, the value for money is outstanding. They even fill up your fridge with different types of drinks with no extra charge! it has everything you need and a little extra, I’m so amazed how little I paid for what I got and it’s the perfect location it’s not in the busiest place which was so much more peaceful and authentic but still only a 25 min/ half hour walk to the centre (5 minute water bus which is right outside the hotel). Staff were perfect, so lovely and helped us with anything we needed. The interior inside the hotel and rooms was gorgeous too, very modern and grand exactly like the pictures! if you want an affordable hotel but still high quality and not right in the busiest part of Venice so you get to enjoy the authenticity and the quietness of Venice but still can just walk or get a quick water bus to the centre this is the hotel for you!

Very near to the train station (within 5 mins walk) so it was an easy short walk with our huge luggage despite the crowd. You don’t hear much noise (from the crowd) but just some slight sound of train even when window is close. We love the layout of the room which is although slightly small but the space is good for 2 pax with sufficient space for luggage. There is air conditioning and the bed is comfortable. The hotel staff are generally young who is also very friendly and nice. Breakfast room is small where you need to book your time slot daily but staff always replenish food quickly and ensure that the place is clean and tidy. Location of hotel is slightly further away from the tourist site but you can take a water bus around where then bus stop is very near the hotel.

The hotel is located in 5 minutes from the railway station and about 10 minutes from Pizzale Rome (buses to/from the airport). It is in a smaller side street, so there is no noise from the street. There are a lot of shops and restaurants in the vicinity. The rooms are modern, nicely done, with a fridge and a kettle (very much appreciated). The bathroom is spacious and clean. Breakfast is served on the ground floor and I liked it a lot - a very good selection of any type of food and very good coffee (even if from a machine). Wifi worked well.

The location is just perfect. Super close to the train station, but off the main area so it was a little more quiet. Spacious and really comfortable rooms. The bed was outstanding! The bathroom was big and the shower was great with really good pressure. Hotel had AC or you could open the windows for natural air. Breakfast was great with a really big range of options. There was a lift onsite too.

It was Clean and tidy. The staff were extremely friendly even though they deal with so many people I’m sure in the coarse of a year which can probably test patience. They were helpful, friendly. The property was clean. They allowed you to keep your luggage after checkout for the remainder of the day. Only issue we had was the water went cold once but then suddenly became hot. Overall it was a great place with friendly staff. I’m glad we stayed there.
