Hotel Villa Rosa - Venice

9.1

We were very happy with our accomodation at Villa Rosa and would stay again. It gave us everything we wanted--good accomodation, walking distance to the rail and bus staions,close to the grand canal, shops, sights etc.

8.0

When we arrived the receptionist provided us with a small and very useful map with the location of the hotel and the right way from Piazzale Roma. It was too late - more than one hour we were walking round and round with no idea how to get the hotel. My suggestion is to scan and upload this map on the web-site. Inspite of this the location is perfect and the value for money - too.

9.9

Nice and quiet hotel in an ideal location. Very nice staff always ready to help. Excellent value for money. Could easily rate as a two-star hotel.

9.4

Hotel is about 300 meters from the train station and within walking distance of all the main attractions. Easy to find and no stairs to climb with luggage! We had a room in the garden where we could sit in the sun, had our lunch, etc. The Hotel is really worth 3 stars!Breakfast was very good! The Hotel was fully booked and very popular for tourists and young people.

9.3

This hotel is best located,very near the station. I'm sorry, I couldn't see the hotel sigin on the main street. So I asked someone where the hotel is. Don't forget turn the left small lane.If your group is 3 persons,this hotel is the best one,as there are 3 beds.

9.9

Very nice and clean hotel near train station. Breakfest is also very good. Very central to Vaporettos. Nice restaurants and shops in few minutes around. A very good place to stay a few days in Venecia!! It's also very easy to reach Rialto or San Marco by feet.

9.9

Perfect place to stay in Venice. Good location near to Railway Station "Santa Lucia" and Vaporetto stop "Ferrovia". We left our car in Mestre, so we arrived to Venice by train. The hotel was only 5 minutes from the station. Nice staff, clean and quiet rooms, good italian breakfast. All of this in reasonable price. Next time we travel to Venice we'll stay in "Villa Rosa" again.

7.7

A good solution for short staying in Venice! The hotel is perfectly located: very next to the station(3 minutes walking)and easly connected to all turistic places(bus-boats in the station'square). Quite and simple structure but clean. Staff was kind and polite. The price was right for Venice...but anyway a little expensive compared to other cities.

9.3

Overall, we had a very enjoyable stay at Hotel Villa Rosa. Venice is an incredibly expensive city and this hotel is a good value. It is no more than a few minutes walk from the train station, and if you have a lot of luggage, you won't have to worry about crossing any bridges. I must mention that there wasn't enough hot water in the morning for showers. The shower handle broke off on our second morning, and the hotel initially wanted us to pay for the replacement (32 Euros). After a long discussion, it was decided that we didn't have to pay.

6.8

The location to the train station made this hotel convenient. It was clean, comfortable and quiet.

9.2

Location is perfect, for Venice rates price-quality is excellent and the room we had was very spacios.

7.7

Large double bedded room with balcony.Don't worry about the long alleyway leading to the Hotel it is well lite.

8.4

Villa Rosa was clean and comfortable and being near the railway station a bonus. The only problem was the hair dryer did not work properly and the water got cold quickly. Overall the hotel was good and would recommend it.

7.9

Nettes, kleines Hotel. Sehr sauber. Angestellte nett, Rezeption absolut kompetent und immer freundlich. Im Grünen gelegen und sehr ruhig, was nach einem anstrengenden Tag auf Venedigs(Wasser-)Straßen wohl tut. Zimmer sind allerdings relativ klein, mit kleinem Kind wie in unserem Fall schon etwas eng. Dennoch für Venedig-Preisniveau ein akzeptables Preis-Leistung-Verhältnis. Wir würden wieder kommen!

8.5

The room was clean, the staff friendly and helpful, and the location was fabulous! The hotel was easy to find from the train station and we did not have to carry our luggage over the many Venice bridges. We were very pleased.

8.9

It was the perfect hotel for us. We could go anywhere from the hotel and it was on the Train Station side of the canal which is what we needed. People were very nice at the hotel and it has a neat little garden out back. Good room for the price and clean.

7.9

WE only stayed 1 night at Villa Rosa but found the staff most excellent. Our room was great and very handy to the train station. I would reccommed this hotel to anyone travelling to Venice on a limited budget. At 80 euros a night with breakfast included it was good value considering its central location

8.6

very near to the railway station, nice for us and for every travellerer coming by train! its really only five minutes to walk, with no channels or bridges to cross. it was quite enough in the night, so that we could sleep with open windows. for venice we think the price is okay. we would go there again any time, if we come back to venice someday.

9.7

Excellent find, particularly for rail travellers. So close to the station, yet so peaceful. Can't see why it's only one-star. Excellent value for this city. Just one point, it is only a couple of hundred metres from the station and Grand canal, but very hard to find, the 'street' is only a couple of metres wide!

9.4

Buena ubicación, el personal agradable y servicial. Desayuno americano. Lastima que no tienen ascensor. Regresaría y lo recomiendo.

9.4

nous avons réellement apprécié le sejour à Venise à l'hotel Villa Rosa, trés près de la gare,et donc facile à trouver.Le personnel a été trés accueillant, trés agréables.

7.1

Hi, Fellow Travelers. The Villa Rosa was a nice hotel and very centrally located near the train station. It sure beats dragging luggage onto a crowded vaporetto. We needed to get to the train very early in the morning, so, all in all, it was a very good choice. The room was comfortable. We enjoyed sitting out on the patio late in the evening. Breakfast was just adequate. Try wandering away from the normal tourist routes and you can find pastry shops, groceries and fruits at reasonable prices. Venice was beautiful and our hotel was just right.

3.0

Disappointed with this hotel. Travelled with a group of 8, using inexpensive family run hotels. Villa Rosa was in a great location, within walking distance to all the main attractions but was run down and shabby. We had late flights home and there was nowhere comfortable to sit and wait.

8.9

Location was great -- short walk from train station, but down a side street and very quiet. No elevator, but staff helped with luggage. Staff was friendly. Room was simply decorated, functional, everything we needed. Able to find a free wi-fi connection, not from the hotel. Good breakfast. Location is very convenient for shopping, restauarants and vaporetto stops.

9.1

Not very complicated to find, the location is situated near Ferrovia (Train Station). From the airport (Treviso) there is a very comfortable shuttle bus service to Venice, Piazzale Roma (9 Eur return ticket), one water bus station away from Villa Rosa. Very kind hotel service, helped us to quickly solve a little inconvenince with first day morning hot water service. As we mentioned them about the problem they moved us immediatly to another room wich was in an excellent condition so our stay at hotel Villa Rosa was nice indeed. The price we had to pay (at the end of our stay in cash) was exactly what I read previously on venere.com, so there was no surprize! I highly recommend this hotel and definitly would return here if again in Venice.

7.5

Hotel has good location for Venice travel. Warm and kindly reception and service to exotic guests. Room is clean and facility is classic european style. I will absolutely come back if the price could be more reasonable and acceptable.

7.9

The hotel was quite nice place to stay.

10

This was our second stay here. Very close to Train Station. We will stay here on ruture stays in Venice

9.2

Pasamos tres noches en el hotel Villa Rosa y nos pareció estupendo. Habiamos estados unos dias antes en Florencia, en Hotel Santa Croce y aquel no nos gustó tanto. Demasiado pequeño: la ducha era el suelo del baño y tenias que pasar por ella para ir al wc. Sin embargo Villa Rosa está muy bien; espacioso, limpio, tranquilo, buena atención..etc. Lo recomendaría.

6.5

Let's state one thing first: Venice is terribly expensive everywhere for everything. Having said that the hotel offers a fair deal, rooms were quiet, bathroom quite clean, location is close to the station. Compared to other hotels in Italy for 80 euros per night we should give low rates for price/quality, compared to Venice though I suppose you don't get much better if you are travellng on budget. For a night or 2 without big expectations it's absolutely ok!

7.7

Cute place! Easy to find. Room was TINY but we were comfortable. It was very quite apart from being able to hear a few guests in the hotel. Outside is SO quiet- the only thing you hear are the church bells. Breakfast little but nice. Clean, quiet, cute and does not seem like a one star! We would go back.

4.2

Una empleada entro en la habitacion por la mañana sin llamar, y como todavia no nos habiamos levantado, la habitacion se quedo sin limpiar todo el fin de semana. Creo que el servicio no fue correcto en este aspecto. Por otra parte, las fotos que aparecen en la pagina Web, no se asemejan a las que en realidad te encuentras al llegar al hotel. Por otra parte, el suministro de producdtos de aseo en el cuarto de baño son bastante escasos, tan solo un sobrecillo con un poco de champu y listo, un poco precario la verdad. Lo mejor..... el precio.

8.4

Confortevole e silenzioso, bella vista su un giardino privato, vicino alla stazione.

10

The quietest hotel I have stayed in in Venice. Superb quality for price. Very very clean and excellent service throughout. Will definately stay there again

9.8

location of the hotel is perfect - excellent service - beautiful room with a court yard. Very very clean!!

8.8

gute lage und sehr leicht zu erreichen, 5 minuten vom busbahnhof, der empfang war herzlich, das übrige personal war oft gelangweilt, die zimmer klein aber fein und der preis war OK! ab 6 uhr früh riecht man im ganzen hotel frisch gebackene croissants, ist nach mehreren tagen störend! es gibt keine möglichkeit das gepäck am abreisetag unter aufsicht im hotel zu lassen, lediglich der TV raum im empfangsbereich der für jedermann zugänglich ist wurde angeboten - "... aber es ist noch nie etwas gestohlen worden ...!" aber wie gesagt, es liegt zentral und die vorteile überwiegen die nachteile bei weitem!

8.9

We loved our time at the hotel it had all that we required at a good price. The triple room which our daughters had was a triple room and not a double room with an extra bed.

9.5

This is a very nice hotel for the price and very well located, people are very friendly and will try their best to help you.

7.5

Quiet and clean, good value for money, would stay there again if money was an issue.

5.9

The actual position of the hotel does not match that on the website's map. We stayed there during the last week of 2005. Apart from a minor dispute with the hotel staff concerning late check-out, we find the overall stay at the hotel a pleasant one.

9.8

Our visit in Nov 95 (cold) was very pleasant. We were surprised. Room was warm with lots of hot water. Very dependable wake up calls, 24 hr. desk service avail. Breakfast was good, with any kind of coffee served. Very close to station. No lift, so request lower floors if you have alot of luggage. I'd stay there again & highly recomend. Very nice staff, usually one around that spoke English. Very nice decoration in room, slightly tattered, but pretty.

10

We loved this hotel. Great location, lots of rooms with balconies, interior decoration of rooms great - felt like we were in a real villa. Would definitely stay again.

8.8

Nice place. Good relation quality/price for Venice and only a 5 minutes walk from Piazzale Roma Train/Bus station, so wonderfully located if you are arriving from a tiresome journey. Cannaregio is not next to San Marco, but it's a very lively neighborhood, two minutes walk next to most main vaporetto stops (a big plus when coming back at night) and since being in Venice means walking all over the place, if you really want to enjoy it, San Marco is not necessarily always the best location. I would have no problem repeating my stay here. EN ESPAÑOL: Muy buen sitio. Relación calidad/precio adecuada para Venecia y a sólo 5 minutos caminando desde de los terminales de tren/bus de Piazzale Roma. Cannaregio no es San Marco, pero es un barrio bastante animado, a 2 minutos de las principales paradas de vaporettos (muy importante si uno sale de noche) y, ya que en Venecia, de todas formas uno caminará por todas partes para disfrutarla, San Marco no es necesariamente siempre la mejor ubicación. Yo repetiría estadía sin problemas.

9.8

Was very happy with Santa Rosa. I will stay there again my next trip

9.6

Well above the one star rating it recieves!

10

absolut bestes preis/leistungsverhältnis.eher kleine aber sehr gepflegte zimmer.sogar mit klimaanlage.schönes bad mit duschkabine.freundliches service.frühstückt eher mager.ein weckerl, 1 croissant, butter marmelade und cafe nach wahl.dieses hotel kann ich nur empfehlen.

7.0

The hotel is very close to the station which was extremely helpful, but was far from the city center so you had to take a vaporetto (water bus) there which was expensive. We ended up getting a pass rather than single rides because the single rides were too much. When looking for the hotel, it isn't really a street but a small alleyway really (we couldn't find it right away because we were looking for a larger street.) The breakfast wasn't much. Reception was helpful and very nice. Overall a good visit, but a little expensive.

7.6

ottimo punto d'appoggio, facile da raggiungere, mantiene pienamente quello che promette.

8.2

Hotel Villa Rosa was great! Besides getting lost trying to find it, it was a great location. Breakfast was included and was great, even getting a cafe in the morning. It was nice to have an attached bathroom also and there is a great sitting area outside. The staff was very courteous most of the time.

6.2

As others have commented, location is very convenient for the train, rooms are adequate and breakfast simple.

8.2

We were there only for 2 nights but we got a fantastic room - it looked like a cozy Bed & Breakfast room on the coast of California with wood beam ceilings etc. The bed was so comfortable after 6 days of hard mattresses in Paris. We got a spacious room that was renovated recently and was on the outside of the hotel building - I think we just got lucky...it must have been a room for a family with kids or something...Breakfast was included - which was very good. Don't miss the Orange Juice while in Italy - it is deep red in color. I was surprised at first - but it tastes excellent...the room was very quiet -the bathroom extremely clean and well-maintained - again I feel it was renovated recently. Don't know if all rooms have been renovated...the location was key - right next to the train station, next to the best souvenir shopping in terms of reasonable prices, very reasonable restaurants within walking distance and the hotel was also very close to the batobus stop. Would definitely stay there next time. Ask for the room that is an extension to the hotel and which is all the way outside the building in a courtyard that you have to go through a corridor and the breakfast room. It has a toolshed outside the room too and some patio furniture outside with two sets of doors to the room. Should have noted down the room number! Enjoy your hotel hunt...and have a great trip. Orange County, California.

9.7

Villa Rosa hotel is really a great finding for those who wants to stay in nice, not expensive place. The room has everything needed, view was excellent - to the park, location is very convinient - just near the main street in Canareggio district (15 minutes walk to Rialto bridge). Breakfast - croissants & coffee. I would recommend this hotel to everybody. Thanks for nice time in Venice!!!

8.9

Good price and very convenient location

9.1

I was very pleased with the Hotel Villa Rosa. It was the least costly reservation I could make in Venice, and it surpassed all my expectations. Our room was tiny, but clean. It also unexpectedly had a nice size balcony, which was perfect for relaxing at the end of the night, and somewhat made up for the lack of space in the bedroom. The staff was helpful and friendly, the rate resonable, and location excellent and quiet. I'd definitely stay at the Villa Rosa again, it was a bargain.

7.4

Because this hotel was very cheap we expected the worst, but on the contrary the room was very clean (small oke, but clean!)and how much are you gonna stay in here with beautiful Venice waiting for you anyway? The matras was excellent, very rare! (even a bed in the Hilton can be crap) It was greatly situated near the waterbuses and San Marco square is only 15 minute walk away. I recommend this hotel highly and will visit it next year for sure!

6.6

L'albergo e' situato esattamente come descritto nel sito, la colazione è buona, la nota dolente e' l'odore che si sente entrando nella camera e la pulizia che non e' eccellente. Del resto vista la vicinanza con la stazione dei treni lo considero discreto per una notte!

6.8

This htl.near stazione.it's comfortable.Staff are very kind to me.i'm very appriciate.

7.5

Great little spot, with pretty good value for money. Breakfast could be improved a lot, though. Nice and conveniently placed to bus terminal, train station and water taxis - yet very central. Would definitely recommend it to others.

8.1

After wandering the streets of Venice at almost 2am to find the place, some locals helped us find it tucked away on a "side street." The owners were extremely nice and let us check-in at such an hour, after being delayed on an Italian train. The staff were very accomodating and made our stay worthwhile. The room was 2 twin beds with a bathroom. The room was clean but had a funny smell at first, so we slept with the window open and tried to air it out, which worked and was quite safe. The staff also allowed us to leave our luggage with them for free until we left Venice later that evening. Breakfast was decent - breads and rolls with some coffee, tea, juice, or water. I was quite pleased with the hotel, especially how kind they were.

7.8

very good relationship between price/quality of services offered - varm welcoming and extra sevices - very seldom provided by 1 star-category hotels - as 24 hours reception, free city guides and maps, brochures for tourists,etc.

8.5

Our expectations were not very high, but they have been exceeded in every aspect. Doing sightseeing trips like to Venice, all we need in a hotel, ist a clean Place to sleep and a shower. The room provided by Hotel Rosa was very small but cosy. The bathroom was equally small but fully sufficient and clean. The breakfast was as sparsley as described in the reviews we have read previously on venere.com, so there was no surprise. Booking, check in and check out has been astonishingly easy, we could even check in at 8 o'clock in the morning, on out arrival day. Overall Hotel Rosa is a bargain in low season. In high season things are different as the seasonal variations are very high.

9.8

I would definitely rate this much higher than a 1-star hotel. The room is not only clean, but decorated in a bed and breakfast fashion. The location is convenient to the train station and boats, and an easy walk to restaurants and shops. Service was excellent. I highly recommend this hotel if you don't take up much space and don't mind walking.

8.8

Had a nice holyday, nice and cheap hotel, very close to the station. good for a one star hotel. just breakfast is poor.

8.5

Was a bit expensive compared to other hotels we found, but overall was an enjoyable stay, with a nice little breakfast and in a good area of Venice very close to the train station. The only negative aspect of our stay was that they certainly pushed us out quite quickly the day of our check-out.

6.5

Only a fez steps away from the railstation and public transports. Perfect in location and decoration. But a litle expansive for the services provided. No elevator, but we recommend it anyway.

7.8

Good, quiet hotel, within walking distance from railway station. Breakfast rather poor. If this was better, the hotel would certainly rate two stars!

9.5

Very confortable bed and very clean bathroom.The employees are very competence,we will repeate.Is an excellent hotel.

8.9

The room smelt to humidity but the location of the hotel is the best! It is only 100 mts away form Santa Lucia train station wich was really confortable not to carry our bags along the bridges. The price was ok compared to the rest. WE REALLY RECOMEND IT!

9.9

We loved our stay at Villa Rosa. Be warned, though, that the hotel will verify your credit card before your arrival. In my case, this was a disaster, as my wallet and credit cards had been stolen two weeks before, and I'd cancelled the credit card I used to hold the reservation. Without notifying me, the hotel checked my card, saw that it was no longer valid, and cancelled our reservation! When we arrived in the rain at 8:30 p.m., we had no reservation and the hotel was full! Also be aware that the night person doesn't speak any English. I speak Italian, so that wasn't a problem, but this would have been an even worse situation if we hadn't been able to communicate. The hotel people were very sympathetic, and we were able to find another place to stay that night, and Villa Rosa managed to find a triple to put us in for the rest of our stay (only charging us the double rate). They were very nice, there was wonderful fresh capuccino each morning, and the location near the train station, but tucked away on a quiet side street, was very convenient. The neighborhood around the train station is not my first choice, because it is very touristy, very difficult to find a good restaurant not geared to tourist fixed menus.

8.7

Nice little hotel, rooms clean and in our case not so small as described by others. Breakfast enough, friendly employees. Very good location (but not easy to find) because it's quiet, but near to the main route! And for this location cheap!

8.1

Perfectly located nice little hotel. Less than 10 minutes walk to Piazzale Roma and only a few to railway station. I wonder why it's rated only one star.

7.8

Walking distance to train. Clean but small room.

7.2

We had room #38, a double bed and a single (140euro per night). Everything was very clean, the hotel was full but room was very quiet. Breakfast was the usual bread, pastry, and coffee/hot chocolate (yummy!). Staff was very nice. Location was great, 3 minute walk from train station, 10 minute walk from the parking lot where the buses drop you off. Waterbuses everywhere so it was not a problem to get around. Murano or Burano are worth a visit. We visited at the beginning of September, we just missed the Regata, it would have been nice. It occurs the first Sunday of September, its worth a visit, its a huge boat festival. But September is very busy with tourists, its almost a drawback. Venice is increditable no matter what.

8.3

We only had one night in Venice, and as such didn't send much time in the hotel, however the Villa Rosa suited our needs. The location was excellent only a few minutes walk from the train station (we arrived and left venice by train) but as the hotel is located down a side street it is also quiet and peaceful. The room was of a standard size for the class of hotel but our bathroom was very snug perhaps too small for some. The breakfast (included) was a quick and simple affair but tasty if not plentiful. We needed somewhere to leave our luggage at the hotel until our late afternoon train, this request was pleasantly met and we were told we could leave them in the lounge area for as long as we liked. In all the Villa Rosa is a clean, friendly staffed and affordable choice if you are planning a short break to Venice.

8.8

A lovely location and facility. Very romantic. Very close to Grand Canal, train station and parking.

7.1

Nous avions la chambre qui est sur la photo du site, mais c'est une chambre qui n'est pas rénovée. Elle reste tout à fait convenable. L'accueil est cordiale (barrière de la langue !). Cet hôtel est très bien situé, à côté d'un parc !! et à 5 mn à pied de la gare. Le point négatif restera le petit déjeuner (pas avant 8h00 !) et un seul verre (petit!) de jus d'orange (les suivants sont facturés 1 Euro, cher pour un jus d'orange reconstitué ! 1 croissant, 2 morceaux de pain et 2 biscottes !! En conclusion, cela reste un hotel peu cher par rapport aux autres hôtels que j'ai vu et convenable.

9.9

This was an excellent hotel.It was amazing that the cost was so reasonable in Venice.

8.8

Quiet position near station, shopping areas and sights. Charming rooms, well equiped with terrace (very small bathroom). The price is sensational for the comfort offered, better than in some four-star hotels.

8.6

The Villa Rosa was in an ideal location and so close to the Train Station. We received a warm welcome and were very happy with our stay I would not hesitate to recommend this accomodation to others

6.2

Good hotel but not cheap for one star.
