Hotel Santa Marina

Great view of the Piazza and nice and quiet. Comfortable rooms and a great water taxi ride as you get in to the city

Absolutely loved this beautiful hotel! The staff was amazing and we were a few steps away from the wonderful streets of Venice.

We stayed at Hotel Santa Marina for two nights in June 2025. The location is central and within walking distance to many places. Unfortunately, the room itself didn’t live up to expectations. It felt quite dated and could really use some updates and maintenance to feel more comfortable. Our experience with the front desk staff was mixed. One blonde woman with dark-framed glasses was incredibly helpful and pleasant, she really stood out in a good way. On the other hand, the tall man with dark curly hair was quite the opposite. When we asked about a rooftop terrace, he simply said “no,” without any explanation. A more helpful response would have been to direct us to the terrace beside the hotel. Thankfully, another staff member, the bell boy — an Asian man with dark hair and dark-framed glasses, was also friendly and approachable, which we appreciated. Overall, despite the convenient location and some helpful staff, we wouldn’t recommend this hotel due to the underwhelming room quality and inconsistent service.
