Hotels near Schola dell’Arte dei Tiraoro e Battioro, Venice

I received a message from the store in advance, explaining the route in detail. Take bus No. 2 from the train station and get off at the stop before the Riya Tow Bridge. After getting off the bus, follow the instructions and walk for 5 minutes to the hotel. Go to the second floor to complete the check-in formalities and then work. Staff took 10 minutes to walk to the apartment. Our room is on the second floor, with 2 bedrooms, 1 living room, 2 bathrooms and a kitchen. The kitchen is fully stocked with seasonings and a washing machine. The apartment is not in a busy area and is very quiet. It's a few minutes' walk to the river, very convenient. There is a market by the river in the morning where you can buy ingredients, and the seafood is fresh and cheap. Although prices are high in Venice, it is very cheap to buy water and food from supermarkets and markets.

Everything was great. We took a water taxi from the airport to the hotel, the dock was right in front of the hotel which was very nice since we arrived late at night. The only thing can get improved was wifi, sometimes it was hard to get the signal in the room.

We booked an ”apartment for 2 with bathroom” at Hotel Ariel Silva. The booking was for Calle della Masena 1391/A which was supposed to be opposite the hotel building where the check-in was. When we arrived there, they told us our apartment was in fact in a completely different part of Venice (800 m away) and they had no availabilities at the closer place. I had booked the room particularly because it was quite close to the station but now we had a super long walk. Assuming I might have done something wrong when booking and not having any other options, we took the room only to noticed when we got there that it had a SHARED bathroom! On top, the furniture was old, the tablecloth had a big hole, the bed was in fact a sofa bed (see pictures) and the fridge plus boiler were so noisy we had to turn them off to be able to sleep. Luckily we only spent one night. The neighbor we had to share the bathroom with was the most noisy person getting in and out of his room every 10-20 min for the whole night! I don't know what kind of business he had on the streets but this was not a normal hotel guest or tourist. We hardly got any sleep that night. We tried to get a compensation for our wrong room but the hotel was very unhelpful. Showing them screenshots of our booking didn't help. They kept insisting we got the room we booked. Just a total disaster! I feel scammed!

Wonderful stayed at Ai Mori d’ Oriente Hotel in Venice. We stayed for 7 nights with Breakfast. Professional, friendly, pleasant and efficient service from all staffs. Room was spotlessly cleaned, daily clean and replenished two bottles of water every single day. Quiet area which I was preferred to get away from busy and noisy town. Simply and fresh breakfast including hot and cold stations, plenty of coffee to choose from, fresh juices and desserts etc … unlimited too! Lovely breakfast seating area. They always protected the customers from the hungry pigeons 🐦‍⬛🕊️🔫 😅 Nothing to much trouble there at all. Safe and peaceful area Perfect air conditioning Perfect pillow and comfortable bed We had a good sleep and relaxed Shower and Bath were perfect temperature and pressure … really nice and clean 15-20 mins walk to Grand Canal 15-20 mins walk to St Mark’s Square 5 mins walk to all shops and restaurants Access 24 hrs Reception open 24 hrs Highlight ** 5 mins walk to Mandonna Dell’ Otto Boat station 🚤 (Alilaguna Route- Orange Line) Very convenient trip from Venice Marco Polo Airport (1st stop from the airport approx 23 mins journey) and this station was not busy at all better than going to the Grand Canal Station which can be nightmare! Forgot to mention about the Wi-Fi. We decided to get the Wi-Fi from ‘Holafly eSim’ cost 7 days for £21 We definitely needed and really helpful. High speed connection everywhere in Italy 🇮🇹 we have no problem at all! What more do we need when we are on holiday 😬! We will 💯 definitely stay at Ai Mori d’Oriental Hotel again when we return to Venice. Highly recommended. I hope this helps! Ciao 😍

We were quoted by the hostel website a €66 per night stay excluding the city tax but the final price was just worked out to favour the hotel. We had payed a €15 deposit prior to the stay and after checking reviews upon arrival we decided it was best to get a firm idea of the price right away. At this time I was quoted a price of €141 for 2 nights including the city tax (€4) and I decided to double check that this was taking into account the deposit. The manager (I think) got very short and explained he had already said this but I was just unable to decipher his grumbles and had asked for clarification. So I accepted that after adding the deposit it was going to be €76 euro instead of €66 but for 2 nights I was just going to accept this as we didn’t have much other choice and just wanted to enjoy Venice and if we decided to we [could discuss the bill at the end of the stay. Skip to check out time and we were told the the price was €141 and that he had to now add on the city tax of €4 (different to what he had said before of 141 including the tax) another small increase but we had a bus to catch so didn’t have much choice but to pay. So ending up paying €78 per night ex. tax which is okay if the hotel is of good quality, it was not. The manager was smoking at the reception desk but not a huge deal as we were staying across the street. Got into our building and it had a very unusual not that pleasant smell but we got used to it. Went to use our shared toilet (booked a shared toilet) and stepped on the open drain which was covered by a bath mat. The shower has really great pressure though so that’s a plus. The room had no air con as expected but somehow was hotter than outside. If you book a 1 star hotel you get a 1 star room and we weren’t surprised in that respect but we were supplied with an anti mosquito plug-in with enough tablets to last our stay. A very out dated room but again a 1 star hotel so we weren’t surprised. Not made to feel welcome by the man behind the desk (maybe manager) but he was in a very good mood when receiving payment. The experience start to finish made us feel that the hotel was run without a care for the quality and just a transaction (maybe a bit of a con with the price bumps).

I was very worried before I arrived because of the mixed reviews, so I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived. Rooms are clean. The location was great as it's only a few minutes walk from the railway station, and it's right next to the canal. However, breakfast was interesting as we were surrounded by aggressive bees and birds which were ready to steal your food anytime. Staffs were helpful. Special thanks to the waitress who helped calm my daughter when she was stung by a bee.

Consigliato vivamente, Abbiamo soggiornato in questo albergo e siamo stati benissimo, a due passi dal canal grande a 20 minuti a piedi da piazza san marco . Vicinissima alla stazione e dal punto di di partenza degli autobus per l'aeroporto, le stanze molto pulite il personale attento e gentile e premuroso, la colazione abbondante e variegata.

I really enjoyed my stay at the Santa Lucia - all the staff were delightful and very eager to help (special shout-out to Angela on the front desk!) and my room was delightful, with all the amenities I needed. It is incredibly close to the Piazzale Roma, where all the buses from the mainland arrive, so very easy to make my way there once I arrived from the airport, and it's right on the Grand Canal, so amazing views every time I stepped out of the front doors! I would say: in terms of location, it's on the opposite side of Venice to St Mark's, so it was about a 30-min walk there, which I never minded, as Venice is so beautiful, but just to keep in mind! However, for an expensive city, I thought the Santa Lucia was a lovely, affordable place, and would definitely recommend it.

We stay in the junior suite for 2 nights. The room was spacious and well appointed with all essential amenities. The downsides were not having good view (facing the other building’s rooftop) and water pressure was weak and not hot enough. The bed and pillows were clean and comfortable. The reception staff were always friendly and helpful. The breakfast was good. Appreciated the covid preventative measures that the foods were served in the individual containers.
