This hotel truly lives up to its name, offering an exceptional Venetian experience. Here's a breakdown of our stay:
Pros:
Unbeatable location: Steps away from Piazza San Marco and a convenient ferry station.
Grand Canal View rooms: Worth every penny, offering stunning vistas of the canal, gondola station, and the Church of Santa Maria della Salute
Attentive service: Staff were helpful and knowledgeable about local attractions.
Unique Murano experience: The hotel's partnership with a Murano glass factory, including private boat transport, was a highlight. It offered an intimate look at the glass-making process, though there's a soft expectation to purchase souvenirs.
Decor: The hotel's Venetian style is more modern and appealing in person than online photos suggest.
Cons:
Breakfast: While the view from the breakfast area is spectacular, the selection is limited, and some equipment (like toasters) weren't functioning properly.
Noise: Proximity to the ferry station means some noise can be heard until around midnight.
Overall, our stay at Monaco & Grand Canal Venice was thoroughly enjoyable. The hotel's prime location, stunning views, and unique experiences more than compensate for the minor drawbacks. I would highly recommend this hotel for anyone seeking an authentic, luxurious Venetian experience.
