Hotel Villa Edera  

A very comfortable hotel we have used for 4 times in the last eight- highly recommended, efficient and well run. A very positive family or couples atmosphere. A good evening atmosphere in the bars and cafes locally. The best experience by far was the 2 painting trips I made to Choggia where coffee was third of the price and the tremezzo {tapas/sandwiches} were free at the bar. To save money buy a 7-day Venice water-bus ticket for £50.

Despite booking a hotel room and arriving at 3:50pm, I was unable to enter the locked hotel gates. Despite pressing the buzzer and calling the hotel multiple times, there was no answer. I could see inside that there was no-one at reception, and clearly no-one was monitoring their phone lines. I waited for over an hour, and after this booked another hotel. When I finally got in touch with Villa Edera, they were unwilling to cover any of the costs incurred in making such a late hotel booking. They were also quite rude and failed to appreciate the amount of time they had cost us between waiting for them + finding new accommodation, particularly given the limited time we had in Venice. I recommend not staying here, especially in winter, as the property is clearly not a priority for the owners. The front desk is also definitely NOT attended 24 hours - it was unattended the whole time I was waiting and even when I returned at 8pm I could only talk to someone via the phone.

The staff are friendly. Breakfast is sufficient.

It was too warm at night, but I could not find how to control the room temperature.

The best breakfast among all B&B's we stayed at in Italy. The hotel is clean, well furnished, large bathroom, quite, but too expensive for our budget and we could not cancel due to an error on booking.com, $250 was hefty for our budget. A nice short walk to the water taxi and 20 minutes later you were in heart of Venice. Very convinient. The staff was nice, but no one went out of their way to help when we asked for resturant suggestions. They did let us leave our luggages in the lobby near the bar for a few hours.

Just the price is a bit too high given that water taxi cost 16 Euros for 24 hours plus Venice is expensive and difficutl to do on budget. Be aware of "sitting" charges per person at resturants

Good location.

We asked the receptionist to plan the check-out time for we had to catch a train to Milan from Venice. Checking-out in line with his suggestion, we missed our train and spend another night's stay fee to catch out flight in Milan.

Hotel Villa Edera is full of character ,clean and friendly in perfect location the sort of place you look forward to returning at the end of busy day in Venice to relax on a beach .

Very much!

Great breakfast

7 euro/hour for wifi

Location was excellent, within a few minutes from boats and about 10 minutes walk to the beach.

Could have been more choice at breakfast but main complaint is about the dirty crockery and left-over food on tables which attracted pigeons in the eating area outside...disgusting! As guests left, tables were not cleared and cleaned and when new guests arrived for breakfast there was nowhere to sit and no clean cups or cutlery. It was very disorganised and very off-putting.

The room was very clean and comfortable. The breakfast was nice. The staff were very kind and helpful. The location is great.

Everything was fine.

We can't praise this hotel too highly. From point of the Receptionist's warm welcome, friendliness of the waitresses and chambermaids, to our leaving everything was just perfect. We found absolutely no evidence of the reasons leading to the negative comments made in some earlier reviews. The hotel's location in a quiet neighbourhood near the shops, cafes and the vaporottos was ideal. We just can't recommend this hotel too highly.

Nice location and good Value for money ratio.

It's proximity to the vaporetta to Venice and it's a short walk to the main street and Lido Beach.
