Hotel Excelsior Venice

Everything

Having no coffee in the room in the morning. Being charged 15 euros for some coffee pods that tasted horrible. Was going to stay another night but didn’t because this annoyed me so much. For what I paid it is mean , pathetic, petite and self destructive!!!

The hotel has a uniquely Venetian atmosphere and combines the beaches of the Adriatic Sea with the proximity to the centre of Venice. We have visited the hotel several times and we really like it. The size of the rooms is appropriate to the time the hotel was built and assumes you are living in them, not just staying overnight.

Although one can accept the fact that the price of the hotel is really high, especially in the summer months, it is a bit disappointing that the interior of some of the rooms is a bit dilapidated. However, the lack of service in the more remote tents on the beach at a price of approx. 400 EUR per day is definitely disappointing. Similarly, the pricing policy for drinks and lunches could be their unpretentiousness and also adapted to the simplicity of the food. The truth is that the quality of dinner in particular is reputedly excellent.

Direct beach front Many beach privet cabins Hotel water shuttle Outdoor pool & large gym room Multi lifts and wid stairs Big lobby and breakfast room Friendly and supportive staff of all hotel functions from reception to the porters Good variety of food both at breakfast and beach bar

Furniture bit aged in general No full fledged spa or beauty salon Beach cabin expensive and require refurbishment to include shower as well

During our stay, we were delighted by the staff's exceptional friendliness and helpfulness. They accommodated our numerous questions and requests. The property itself was beautiful. Our room was wonderfully spacious. The pool and beach facilities were a real highlight, especially with the scorching weather, allowing us to relax and cool off at our leisure. Additionally, the convenient shuttle service to Venice town was a definite plus, making exploring the area effortless. Lastly, I must mention that the hotel's proximity to a bus stop was incredibly convenient for us. On our last day, it allowed us to easily catch a waterbus into town with all our luggage, making our departure smooth and hassle-free.

Despite our room being a bit outdated, we found it to be quite pleasant and comfortable. My family enjoyed the breakfast, although my wife, unfortunately, couldn't have the eggs due to her lactose intolerance. Apart from these two minor issues, we had a wonderful experience during our time there. The overall atmosphere and the enjoyable aspects of our stay overshadowed any minor inconveniences, making it a wonderful experience.

One of the best hotel where we ever stayed and we were the second time there. Really amazing beach and environment, specially the boat taxi to venice. Be there where all the stars stay when the film festival is.

There is only one thing what we do not like so much: the price. The rooms are expensive but the addon costs on the bars are horrible. but on the other hand this keeps the hotel exklusive.

It’s on the beach, the views of the sea, the gardens, the swimming pool, the photograph exhibition, the water shuttle to Venice.

It was the last week of the season the underground beach access was closed and the beach access from the front steps were closed. We had fabulous weather during our visit and we wanted to swim, but we had to walk 10 minutes down the road to get access to the beach.

This is a wonderful hotel full of charme and history. Difficult to beat. Wonderful receptionist. Very polite staff. 2nd best hotel arrival in the world. Most beautiful beach huts as in the beginning of 20th century.

A few small things: A service taking care of the personal belongings ( phone, room keys, sandals) right at the beach /waterfront would be desirable. The beach huts should also be available for short periods. The watertaxi pickup service should be less expensive ( 3 x normal watertaxi. Why?). A bag/basket for the beach visits should be available in the rooms and the complimentary sandals should not be of tissue. Of the two (4 for a double room) pillows some should be thinner/different. But all of these are small details.

The staf was very friendly an proffessional Location was excellent we loved the hotel Breakfest was good Bar could be better and cocktail bar too

Only cocktail bar STAFF was not proffessional enough Hotel Need more a beautifull bar with Music It is not a Nice bar Old fashion Needs to changement

this is unbelievable hotel from all aspects, privacy, beauty of the property, location, professionalism of stuff and friendliness. we already decided to come back in September. I can’t thank enough the stuff to make our first stay unforgettable so there is more to come.

we liked everything and I don’t remember ever having that opinion on so many hotels we stay in over the years. Its really one of a kind hotel

A consistently excellent 5 star hotel, on the Lido away from the tourist crowds of downtown Venice but still close enough to visit easily, a great base for the Biennale. Mix with Italian families enjoying the beach and a spritz or two, best of all, hire a cabana on the beach, it’s pure class.

Nothing, it’s perfect
