Sophisticated resort hotel away from the crowds.

Lovely hotel with great service and lovely pool area. Boat service to San Marco square makes it easy to visit the Venice itself. Drinks and food at the hotel we found overly expensive otherwise would have been perfect hotel.

It’s one of the few properties in Venice with a pool. It really is a beautiful place on the beach. The property is rather old and the room and pool need updating but the staff are wonderful. We had an amazing holiday just very expensive.

The Excelsior is an extraordinary experience. A beautiful property, great beach, superb restaurants, wonderful ambience, with frequent boat service to Venice. The staff do a great job. It’s a once in a lifetime experience. Expensive but worth the splurge. An unparalleled beach and pool experience by day and the magic of Venice at night. Strongly recommended!

Fabulous location excellent public spaces delicious breakfast but all the rooms old fashioned and bathrooms urgently require refit. .

A beautiful classic property with a huge pool, great beach with cabanas on a sandy beach and calm warm waters of the gulf of Venice. Wonderful courteous staff in all areas with a great buffet breakfast included with your stay. However I found the food service poor with high prices and sub standard service. Food choices were not great and much too pricey for the quality of food and amounts of food served. The boat service from 9am till 1130 pm with boats running every half hour to and from Venice proper was the greatest feature. You could go into Venice at any time of the day and return by 1130 pm. Shop,eat at a multiple variety of places at a multiple variety of prices at your convenience. Truly a great hotel and a great vacation!

The property is beautiful, but the rooms are outdated. The swimming pool is only open until 7pm (and you have to leave the pool at 7pm, you can’t even stay at your own risk) and the pool bar closes at 6pm. The price of a simple drink is 25 euros!!! The breakfast staff and the beach office staff were very friendly, however the concierge (the older gentleman) and some of the front desk staff are very stocked up. Breakfast is complementary, and it is delicious. The ferry takes you from the hotel to st. Mark’s square and back, however, you can’t even take a carry on with you on that ferry. Overall, it was a nice experience, however, for the price, next time I will look for a different hotel.

Old school charm with high prices.

The old school style is nice and the staff is supernice. Sustainable this place is not, no recycling. Also the private boat taxi price is a rip off and there is no shuttle to the airport. I asked for upgrade, as a gold member I did not get it even if the hotel was half empty. Room service fee 15€, room service coke 12€. Rip off.

This property although very grand and lovely in the common areas, our room was extremely dated. The carpets were covered in stains, bathroom tiles were cracked, plaster work in bathrooms looked very old. Some of the PowerPoints didn’t work. There were minimal power points making it hard to charge multiple devices. Room was large. Buffet breakfast had great options. Staff were friendly. However food, drinks and services offered by the hotel such as laundry and transfers were extremely expensive. It was nice to be staying on a quieter island as opposed to the main island of Venice, as it was extremely crowded and would have been horrible to wheel a suitcase through. The free boat taking you to the main island of Venice and back was lovely and so convenient. I would not say the stay was worth the average $700 AUD per night we paid. However the cheaper options in Venice also looked extremely dated and cramped so probably wouldn’t have been any better. A note that Taxi’s on the island would only take cash which was quite frustrating as I was forced to walk to a bank to get cash out which charged €4 just to get cash out. Also the taxi driver did not mention this until after we arrived at our destination. We found a few nice meal options within a 20 minute walk of the hotel which was a better option than the very expensive hotel options. Also, a quick note that we ended up using the Aliguana Ferry to get from the airport to Lido and then a taxi from the port to the hotel.

I had booked a sea view suite as a treat. £500 per night. We were greeted at the desk in a very off-hand manner and shown to the lift and handed our keys. We found our room, but access to the balcony was locked. Apparently to access this, we had to go back downstairs, sign a waiver accepting carte blanche liability and go back up with a key! The room itself was tired with carpet stains and in need of renovation. The shower (over the bath) needed de-limescaling to work properly and the plug was slow to drain. A coffee machine was provided with 4 coffee pods for our entire stay. More were available at an extortionate price! The minibar had various bottles of water and soda which would be replenished again only at a price. The swimming pool was good and beds comfortable but any refreshments were eye-wateringly expensive (twice any other bar). Consequently we went out for refreshments and meals. However, the hotel is not in a great location for bars or restaurants. Luckily, we found BAGNO MARCONI a little further up the beach. Amazing.
