The hotel is the best you can get in terms of location in Venice. Very, very close to the train station. The room is small, but this didn´t matter. It has an excellent breakfast. more

Depending upon what you are looking for from your holiday should depend on whether you stay here! If you are looking for location location location, as well as value for money then Hotel Nazionale is fine for what you are looking for. It is very close to the train and bus station, which means great access from the airport. Everything... more

2 minute walk from Ferrovia water-bus stop and the Santa Lucia main train station. Arrive at airport and get the No.5 bus to Pl Roma bus terminal, walk over large bridge to the left of the bus terminal and it's a 5 minute walk to the hotel. If you have luggage take the water-bus from the bus terminal, it's only... more

The room was pretty old. Toilet VERY small. Lots of stairs to get to the reception. Apart from that it was a good experience. For Venice standards the price is good and location very good. Close to train and ferry stations. Lots of places to eat... more

I don't know why some people complain about this hotel. You can't pay average rates and expect Hilton or the Ritz standard. Just returned to London after a few days there. We found it perfectly adequate - the good location, cleanliness, good breakfast and yes, a friendly service. Perhaps not all of them were proficient in English, but we were... more

We loved the location of this hotel and that is it. It is right outside of the train station and we were feeling smug about not having to schlep our bags and two small children up and down the steps of the city. And then we saw the steps to the lobby. It was at least two stories up. No... more

35 steps up to the lobby from the street level, we found the reception nicely air conditioned. The lobby was average, but comfortable. We were assigned a room on the 1st floor, through hallways and stairs. Our room was undescribably small. We have been all over Italy and this was so small, there was no room for suitcases. My husband... more

This hotel was the worst hotel I've ever stayed in in Italy. The staff were all consistently rude to us. When we initially checked in we were given a room which was exceptionally cold, it was so cold we couldn't actually stay in it, it had an air conditioner/heater which had no "heat" setting and no radiator. The room was... more

I recently stayed at this hotel with a tour group. I was very nervous after reading the other reviews! The rooms were very small indeed, but if you can ask for room 101 it is right by the lobby and has (by comparison) a palatial bathroom with a wonderful shower!! All new and clean and apparently very large compared to... more
