Breakfast and rooms excellent general atmosphere and historic value unmatched, to say it is resort style is to limit the class and nostalgia every step offer you at a glance .
We had a fantastic stay at the Excelsior. The property and staff are top-notch. Being on the Lido was a nice quiet contrast to our days on the main Venice island; and commuting via the hotel boat service was a pleasure.
The place was wonderful. All the staff were friendly and very helpful. The place was incredible clean. and the food was delicious. The location was right on the beach and within walking distance of several local restaurants. Plus, the hotel's water taxi was very convenient. I'd recommend this place to anyone who plans to stay in Venice.
The Excelsior on the Lido is the perfect spot to relax and recharge, whilst having rapid access, by hotel boat and public boat transport, to Venice and nearby islands.
We find the Lido and its beach to be a much more pleasurable Venice base than staying in the center of Venice.
Excelsior is an old-world style resort, with all of the wonderful staff and amenities of yesteryear, with no pretension.
The facilities and services at both the private beach and pool are simply perfect. The staff are warm and always happy to help in any way they can. The rooms are elegant and well appointed.
This was our second visit and we WILL be back!
Alessandro at the pier was helpful, friendly, and polite. Beautiful pool. Friendly staff. Not enough chairs. Some guests saved chairs all day, and never used them til late afternoon. Food was excellent. Front desk very polite and professional. Maid service and room service was good.
Hotel is Excellent.
Great access to Venice by Private Boat (Included in Price).
Very good breakfast with great choice.
Great base just 15 mins away from Venice.
Note: Prices for Food & Drink very expensive.
Great pool, good breakfast selection, lovely grand building right on the beach. Shuttle boat into central Venice is very convenient. Drinks in the hotel are extortionate EUR 19.50 for 2 Cokes. There is a Gelateria almost opposite the hotel, that has salads, pizza, pasta, sandwiches, drinks and delicious ice creams at very reasonable prices.
Loved everything! But a small water fountain so one can clean one’s feet after a walk on the beach! I don’t like tracking sand in the building and rooms! Thank you!
Dream Stay, nothing but Amazing in every way possible. From check in, to Comfort, to impeccable service, to wonderful breakfast.
Can not fault anything or any staff member.
Just Beautiful.
