Hotel Concordia, Venice

The hotel offers a great feeling of the old Venezia style, with larger windows than most old world hotels, free WiFi, and updated bathrooms with a soaker tub and shower. The view from the rooms is fantastic, immersing you in the heart of Venezia. However, the rooms are a bit dark due to the specific design, which might not appeal to everyone.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The rooms, although small and stuffy, offered a terrace overlooking the Basilica which was a nice touch. The service was a bit hit or miss, with some staff members barging in without notice but also arranging a memorable private transfer. The location, just behind San Marco cathedral, was ideal for exploring the city, although the noise was a drawback. The dining experience was delightful, with a wide variety of delicious options. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.

The hotel's location is unquestionably awesome, perfect for first-time visitors to Venice, centrally located just off St Mark's Square. The rooms are spacious, with a large bathroom, excellent hot shower, and good Wi-Fi. On the downside, the rooms lack a view, only facing a wall. The service is extremely professional, offering a rare mix of formality and friendliness, although some training is needed for final bill settlements. The dining experience varies, with poor quality fake bacon and eggs, but with a great view of Basilica di San Marco. The hotel facilities are convenient and offer useful amenities.

My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms, although smaller than expected from the website, provided a cozy retreat with 2 queen size beds. The service was friendly and accommodating, especially when my partner arranged a romantic surprise. The location, right off San Marco Square, was convenient for sightseeing but the dining area lacked a casual ambiance. The dining options were decent, and the facilities were adequate for a comfortable stay.
