Hotel Carlton on the Grand Canal

Be aware that the 'air conditioner' is actually an evaporative cooler, and it's as loud as a tractor. Everything else was fine.

Very satisfied! The front desk staff were warm and welcoming, and even gave us a map. Breakfast starts at 7 AM daily and is plentiful and delicious. My dad tried all 6 types of coffee, 3 kinds of juice, and 8-9 different pastries. The apples and oranges were fresh, and the yogurt, jams, and egg tarts were excellent. The room was quiet, close to the train station, and about a 30-minute walk to the main square.

Extremely satisfied with the trip! The hotel front desk staff were very friendly, and they offer luggage storage. The location is also very convenient.

Great! They upgraded us to a larger room. The breakfast was good too. This hotel has a fantastic location, right opposite Santa Lucia train station. It only takes about six minutes to walk across the bridge with your luggage. Plus, if you're planning to explore by boat, you can buy tickets right across the street at the ticket office. We bought a one-day pass and even managed a trip to Murano (the glass island).

The room was spacious and the heating worked very well. The key was unique, but the facilities were a bit old. The shower curtain didn't really keep the water in, so the bathroom floor got very wet. The courtyard next to the room was quite nice. Room 509 is actually on the ground floor. I also got bitten by mosquitoes at night, but luckily I managed to kill them quickly. The front desk had a peculiar process: when I checked in, they asked for my credit card to register the number. The next day when I checked out, I inquired about it and was told it was to prevent guests from forgetting to pay city taxes or other fees after leaving. They also assured me that the card information would be deleted later and not to worry.
