Hotel Antiche Figure

At arrival, the hotel was overbooked and the receptionist informed us that we would stay for one night at the Amadeus, then return to a upgraded room in exchange for our cooperation. Since the other hotel was in the same neighborhood and the hotel took care of tranferring our heavy luggage over the staired bridges, we didn't care much. The upgraded room - a studio, as they call it, although not bigger than a normal larger room - was in a separate building, the only problem being that there was absolutely no view from the room's windows which opened practically in the wall of the building on the opposite site of the very narrow street. Otherwise, the room was great, tastefully decorated and with a big canopy (!) bed.

I still don't get why anything could get overbooked, especially out of season.

We chose this hotel based on it's proximity to Piazella Roma and the port. It was extremely convenient to get to after a very short walk. We had arrived early and our room was not yet ready. The able staff (Ricardo and Jessica) cheerfully greeted us, offered bathrooms, luggage storage and recommended some nearby places for us to grab lunch while they readied our room. The room turned out to be more luxurious than we had expected and had a great view of the Grand Canal. Had it not been for the helpfulness of the staff, we would never have stumbled upon an truly unique opera performance at Music de Palazzo, a very unique experience that left us feeling as if we had discovered a hidden secret of Venice! We highly recommend this place!

We are hard pressed to come up with anything negative about this place!

Staff were lovely and very helpful. Breakfast was great - make sure to order your coffee from the bar as the machine is not so great. Rooms are clean and nicely decorated. Bathrooms are lovely as well.

The asst.mgr was very pleasant and helpful finding us a room when we arrived at 9 am after flying all nite. She upgraded us to a larger room for a reduced price. The location was great.

Location perfect on canal, but accessible. Staff was great, spoke english and provided whole itenerary for our stay. I would not stay anywhere else. rooms were very clean and recently updated

It had a very convenient location to the station and other transport in the city also very easy to walk to most of the sights in the area.

The hotel was unfortunately overbooked when we arrived; they placed us in a hotel nearby which did not have the charm of the Antiche Figure, even though it was a more expensive property. But the staff of the Hotel Antiche Figure was outstanding; we would definitely book there again. We were extremely disappointed that we could not stay there; it would have been perfect.

Was across from the train station - very convenient

Renovated bathrooms, cleanliness, location across from train station and vaporetti.

Arrived very late at night due to flight delay, which annoyed the staff!!

We loved staying at the Hotel Antiche Figure. It was close to the train station and to the Vaporetta stations. We stayed 3 days and bought 48 hour passes to the Vaporetta. St. Mark's Square was packed with tourists and were so glad to get back to our hotel. On day 3 we were tired of the crowds (and walking), and decided to take the Vaporetta to Lido to have lunch. The 48 hour pass also included this trip. The front desk service was excellent and could not have been more helpful. We ate dinner (twice!) at the Ostaria al Vecio Pozzo which was recommended by staff. The food and service was excellent. We loved getting "lost" in Venice. We would definitely stay at this hotel again. They will be opening a 2nd hotel in the near future.

The hotel was perfect. We chose to be near The Piazale Roma for convenience of catching an early bus to the airport. Although we only stayed one night, we would thoroughly recommend this hotel. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The room was small but perfectly formed in venetian style! The bathroom had every convenience and was floor to ceiling marble. We ate our breakfast outside overlooking the Grand Canal - not many hotels for the price where you can enjoy that experience. As it is the other end of the canal to San Marco, wander there and take the vaporetto all the way back - magical!

The hotel as excellent with very friendly staff. We would stay there again.

The customer service level at this hotel is second to none. Every member of staff who we had dealings with were prepared to go that extra mile to ensure we had an excellent stay. I would highly reccomend this hotel to anyone.
