Breakfast was excellent . The wide variety of choices to choose from was great and the fresh fruit was delicious

Tom United States of America

perfect beach hideaway, when you want to be away from hectic Venice sightseeing .

Anonymous United States of America

The sky above was always the blue of Paul Newman's eyes; the half-hourly boat into 'town' more glamorous than Miriam Leone; the guitarist at dinner was half Jose Feliciano, half Joe Pass, nylon-string jazz James Bond, I mean, come on: hat's off to Stefano...breakfast was amazing, dinner spectacularly nuanced, and the local wines that never leave the region, why would they?...the walk down the beach, yes the beach into town, the whole Thomas Mann vibe...the huge photographs of previous Venice Film Festivals held here...the elegant play of dawn light on our bedroom blinds, just to think Gina Lollobrigida's been here too, and every other film star, ever. I couldn't say we were out of season, but we were after the film festival, here to see the architectural biennale, and the lido, the Excelsior, couldn't have been a more perfect base. It's unusual to always be smiling in a hotel; but here we made an exception. Bliss.

Robin United Kingdom

The hotel has a beautiful big swimming pool; very clean with extremely fresh water! True pleasure to swim .

Beata Luxembourg
