Lovely quiet hotel at the end of Lido. Easy to get to, lovely room, ample breakfast and wonderful swimming pool. Staff very kind and helpful. And they allow pets so I met a chihuahua called Roy on the sun loungers!

Lido’s treasure
We’ve been going to Lido and staying at Victoria Palace Hotel for 8 years now. The place is situated in a quiet location opposite the lagoon. You get to see all the ships come and go as well as the wonderful sunset over Venice. The hotel is beautiful, spotless, the staff are great and very welcoming. We look forward to our annual visit next year.

Beautiful views, AMAZING breakfast, accommodating hosts. The only downside was the expense of the ferry to get there. Everything else about this place was perfect.

The room was supposed to be non smoking however it was heavily smoked and the staff did not do anything about it. we had reserved a room for four people but they simply had taken away the tables of a two person room a small room with queen size bed, and replaced it with two portable beds. there was no room enough even for our luggage or even not bumping to each other. the beds were so close we practically were sleeping on the same bed. very uncomfortable. it was a 2 star hotel i cant believe they had a 4 star on them , no coffee or tea. there was no furniture in the room!

Like: Convenient location Dislike: Lack of Emergency Response Plan. One person was injured the night before my departure from the hotel and I had to rush her and her husband to the hospital in my car because the clerk did not know what to do. The hotel should have a direct line with the hospital and other emergency services in case this kind of events occur again.

Last night false fire alarm went on for an hour. Pretty frustrating as customers came down all the way to find out it was false. Went back to bad only to hear every five minute more alarms for almost an hour.

Lido holiday
The position of the hotel is stunning overlooking the lagoon into Venice itself.there is no evening meal but you can reach the center if town from a bus stop outside What really made our stay great was how helpful and friendly everyone was from the reception to the breakfast waitress. You can’t always say that about Italian hotels and bars but it was certainly true about the Victoria

We were very pleased with the Viktoria Palace Hotel, and would recommend the hotel. Located on the island of Lido, it allows you a break from the hustle and bustle of Venice. The bus service from the Lido water dock to the Viktoria Hotel is very easy, and efficient. Only thing to consider is there are no restaurants located around the hotel. You will need to plan to eat before heading to Lido, or eat around the water dock area of Lido.

Would recommend!
Loved the island of Lido and this hotel was conveniently located right in front of a bus stop. Depending on what time of day, the bus route would either drop you off right in town or take the long route to the beach then to town. The rooms were nice and the view of the ocean was beautiful. Beds could be softer and the pillows could be more fluffy. But overall it was wonderful. Breakfast was great. Highly recommend!

Nice hotel in a quiet location.
The staff were extremely welcoming and helpful and always on hand. There was a good choice for breakfast. The garden was well equipped and very peaceful. Bus stop outside the hotel or 20 mins walk to the port or main town centre.

I don't recommend this hotel
Worst hotel I've ever stayed. If you are coming by car, you need to pay 80 euros for ferry. Far from boat station 3 euros by bus each way Wanted a twin room and they asked for another 70 euros. There is no restaurant or grocery store was open when we arrived. There is nothing around the hotel except graves. Breakfast were nothing to mention about. 2 and half star hotel at the most

Beautiful hotel but a distant location
This hotel was very beautiful, clean and provided a decent breakfast. The only issue was its location. It is in Venice, but on the separate island of Lido. Plus, it was on the far end of the Lido Island. This left us with a 1+ mile walk to the water taxi/bus dock. There were buses that ran from the hotel to the dock, but only every 30 minutes. Then you have a 20 minute boat ride to the main part of Venice. We enjoyed it, but be prepared for the additional time to commute to tours etc.

Awesome place to stay, just far
The hotel is incredibly nice! The staff will do whatever they can to make your stay awesome. The hotel was just far away. The first mistake we made was taking a taxi boat, costed 80 euros to get over there. Take public transportation! Right when you get out of the train station to your right is an information desk, go there and ask for help on how to get to hotel. It was about a 35 minute water bus ride from hotel. But first you either have to walk to bus stop or get a land bus. The land bus stop is right in front of hotel and takes about 5 minutes to get to water bus. If you walk to the water bus station it is about a 20 minute walk, very beautiful. It was worth the stay and I would do it again. If you plan on partying late in Venice, I would not stay at this hotel. It gets difficult to get back.

Basic hotel with friendly staff.
Short stay. Staff at hotel friendly and helpful. Facilities are limited. Breakfast basic. Did not have evening meal at hotel so cannot comment. No communal areas in the hotel to sit and have a drink light snack or relax other than outdoors. No food seems to be served other than breakfast and evening meal. Rooms are clean but AC patchy also picked up quite a few insect bites(some at hotel and some rest of trip to Venice). WFI good. Location of hotel not ideal, not much to do in area of hotel without taking ferry boat to other islands .

Hotel Viktoria
We stayed in the Hotel Viktoria for a weekend, the hotel was really quiet, bar was not open, restaurant only used for breakfast which was basic. There was a menu for evening meals but never saw anyone eating there. The local transport was very good with buses every 10 minutes and the river buses were also regular.

Better than Venice
Once you stay at this hotel and visit around Lido you will realize it is much better than Venice, which has just become one giant tourist trap. Stay at this hotel and spend more time on Lido and surrounding land. Why stay in Venice and pay more?

Lovely stay at charming hotel. Staff helpful and friendly. We loved the quietness of it all after a busy day sight seeing. The Bus stop outside meant we cd be at the water bus station in five mins. Views on to Lido from waterside rooms great. Garden lovely to sit out in on aft. Prefer this to a hotel in lido town. Would like it if extended breakfast hours so could sleep later on a morning. My teen sons loved the place.
