Hotel Concordia - Venice

9.1

Fantastic. It was not a cheap hotel, but the service and accommodation were first class. We stayed in room 103 which had recently been 'done up'. It had a tiny balcony overlooking St Mark's Cathedral, beautiful furniture and the bathroom was wonderful! Staff were very professional and extremely helpful. I would go back there tomorrow if I could!

9.0

Excellent value for money

8.1

Hotel is on very good location. Not so crowded, but not so far from the center of city. Staffs are very cooperative and helpful. Mattress is quite small and hard.Room's size is quite small for triple people but it's cozy any way.

The staff was extremely cordial and helpful. We truly enjoyed our stay. Next time, we will stay longer. Our rooftop patio was fantastic. We bought wine, sandwiches and cheese and spent the afternoon enjoying the view of St Mark's Square.

8.5

Very nice hotel. A little hard to find using the directions provided. Staff for the most part was friendly and helpful. Doorman was great. Complementary breakfast was very good. Location, right on the edge of San Marco square was excellent. We left the window on our room open and we could hear the orchestras playing in the square. Room was well furnished and clean. Note: you have to climb stairs to get into hotel. I would stay at this hotel again.

9.7

We enjoyed our stay. Free welcome drink. We recommend to take advantage of the free boat-ride to Murano, witch is exiting. And you don't need to buy the glass. Hotel restaurant offers a pleasant meal away from the crowds. Check in: Monday, July 24, 2006 Check out: Wednesday, July 26, 2006 Room: 1 Double (179.00 EUR per night) Total price: 358.00 EUR

8.6

An excellent hotel in a glorious location. Only problem is the Venice problem, small rooms with little space for relaxation after all that walking, however hotel lounge is good.

8.4

We were married in Venice, and the staff at the Concordia were exemplary in assisting us with all of our details... recommendations for restaurants, florist, etc. Above that, the hotel was fantastic! The location was most convenient, and romantic to hear the chamber music of Piazza San Marco through our window. The concierge arranged for great day trips to Murano and Burano for our group... we would definitely stay there again.

4.4

This was our first stay in Venice. The room was not updated, the bed was hard and not confortable, my fiancee had backaches after, the desk chair was ready to fall apart... I stayed in two other cities, with rooms MUCH better, with comparable pricing.

9.2

Excellent location, helpful staff (bartender and front desk staff - bartender was very nice and advised it's cheaper to buy Murano glass in Venice rather than on the Murano Glass tour the hotel offers). Main drawback was the shower which kept flooding the bathroom. Good value for price, would recommend.

9.9

Had a wanderful time. Location was perfect for our vacation. Enjoyed the staff thouroughly especially the girl that worked the guest waiting area. She was very delightful and helpful. The hotel room was very nice and clean. Had plenty of room.

9.3

The location was wonderful, the breakfast was very nice, the staff were very helpful and qualified. We would definitely come back.

6.9

Hotel has good location, but reception is very focused on selling gondola rides and other tours. They promise special treatment on gondolas and don't deliver. Short on duration, lacking commentary on sites from gondolier, no music, etc.

9.7

We have just enjoyed Easter weekend staying in this lovely hotel, we emailed the hotel before we left and they organised a water taxi to great us and had upgraded our room to a room with a view to die for. We actually had a terrace that overlooked St Marks square and it was beautiful. Great location, great service, friendly staff and beautiful weekend. Would not hesitate to book this hotel again.

Fantastic Hotel in a spectacular location!!! Just completing a significant upgrade/remodel of most of the rooms. We were in a recently redone room on St Mark's Plaza. Really, fantastic!!!

8.9

We had a really great time, but they were remodeling at the time, and we got a very old room while others got new flat screen tv's and all. Overall, great though.

9.9

The hotel was very nice and very well located. It can be a challenge to find your way around Venice, but the location of Concordia makes it easy to find the hotel when you want to. Breakfast is very good. The staff is very knowledgeable and helpful, but there was substantial pressure to purchase one of their tours, gondola rides, etc.

10

Everything about our stay was special. For our first time in Venice the Hotel staff were very helpful in every way. The room was exactly what we expected and of a high standard and the location is second to none.

8.4

Liegt zentral in Venedig, hat 4 Zimmer auf Markusplatz, wir hatten eines davon, das Frühstück war gut, passendes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis, manche Zimmer werden gerade renoviert, wir hatten ein bereits renoviertes Zimmer

8.4

Excellent hotel and position, only credit card payment accepted :(

3.9

The position of this hotel is unrivalled and the breakfast is generous but the rooms are very dated and by the choice of decor and meanness of the bedding one is left with the impression that the position is all that one is paying for. It might just be worth the premium, particularly in the high season when the city is so crowded that walking around is a chore, but I would not return.

8.6

This was a quaint little hotel in an excellent location. Rm 215 was facing the basilica in St. Mark's Square, and had recently been updated with a new bathroom (beautifully done in black slate!)and a flat panel tv. Wonderful staff, great breakfast, perfect location, but you will pay a premium for the space. Also, they set up a wonderful personal walking tour of Venice with Maria Teresa Simoes, a delightful woman who loves showing Venice to anyone who will walk beside her. What a wonderful way to spend your first anniversary! Thank you Venere!

We really enjoyued our stay, great location, nice service. I recommend it to anyone.

9.6

We really like the hotel, the service was exceptional, our room was 310 with a great view of San Marcos Square and with a very nice setting. Our kids stayed on 307 which was a little hot(we traveled during the end of July) we asked the hotel to move our kids to another room room and they did it the next day without problems. I ranked this hotel as one of the best in our 14 day trip, and we only stayed in 5 star hotels, but this one had something my wife and I could not explain, it was small, cozy, and you can say kind of "cute".

9.7

I do visit Venise almost every year and I rate Concordia as one of best hotel: for sure the best as far as price/quality balance is concerned. Restaurant is excellent as well (we had a superb Redentore dinner). I'll go there again in the future.

10

Everything about this hotel was wonderful - guests were treated with respect and made to feel welcome, a feeling rarely found in the majority of hotels worldwide- regardless of their star rating. The Concierge contacted us on receipt of our booking and arranged an English speaking guide and private taxi to meet us at the station. The rooms are well appointed and the location, in the corner of the Piazza San Marco, is perfect. We thoroghly enjoyed our stay and intend to stay there on our next visit to Venice. PS Don't bother with the trip to the Murano Glassworks - it's a tourist rip-off and prices are three times as higher than in the souvenir shops.

8.7

The Concordia was an excellent hotel with very friendly and helpful staff, especially the bar staff. The bar was small but welcoming and the service was exceptionally good. The location was good but slightly noisy at night and there were no good restaurants in the immediate area. The hotel had a restaurant but we chose not to eat there as it was quite expensive, however it did look very good. The breakfasts were nice but they did charge extra for fruit juice which is the first hotel I have stayed in that does so. I would be happy to stay in the Concordia again if I return to Venice.

9.9

Wonderful location on San Marco Piazza. Great people, good breakfast and the rooms are very elegant and quite large. Super large bathroom! Have to walk up some stairs to get to the lobby but not a problem.

5.6

This Property does not have Air Conditioning. Entire Hotel was hot & humid. Most hotels, restaurants & shops have a sign claiming to be air conditioned but few really are. Breakfast was minimal even by European Standards. Eggs, etc. all cost extra. Do not fall for paying extra for a very restricted view of the side of San Marco. Be advised that ATMs tend to run out of cash on weekends - be prepared.

8.6

I would recommend this hotel to anyone who values very good quality and high standards at reasonable prices. The hotel is easy to find, and is the only one which actually overlooks St Marks Square. The staff are first class and multilingual. A welcome drink at the bar, we were introduced to Antonio the Maitre de who, amazingly remembered our names for the whole of the 5 night stay. We saw our room, asked to see a number of others (which was not a problem) and chose the one we liked best. Some are better than others. There is a really good buffet (continental) breakfast, but if you want cooked items they are available at reasonable prices. The breakfast service by the staff is attentive, my coffee cup, was never empty. The Hotel has a restaurant with a cordon bleu chef, 45Euros, very good quality, beautifully presented and served but on the occasion we ate there it was rather quiet. Definitely worth experiencing though and real value compared to the better quality restaurants in Venice. The hotel can organise a walking tour. We had already organised our own, but the people we met who had used the hotel's offering were extremely pleased an I think it is a much more personal guide. The location of the hotel to St Marks square is a big plus as you can take in the evening atmosphere of the square and never be far from "home". Top marks to the Concordia. We will go back again.

9.4

I was very happy. Good location. Good service. high cost performance.

8.1

Everything was nice... The only issue we had was with the staff... concergie tried to lure us with gondola rides and other daily tours.. We were not keen on availing these tours from hotel. We wanted to check these in the market and pick the best deal. It looked like they were not quite happy when we booked these tours ourselves.. Other than this, everything else was very good. My advise is : where ever you stay, dont book any tours from hotel.. In a low season, you can bargain and get a good deal.

8.4

Excelente Hotel, por lo menos la habitación 106, todo perfecto.

9.3

nice breakfasts and great location

9.2

I servizi di Venere sono stati eccellenti, ma l'hotel spenna i turisti...

8.9

We arrived early at the Hotel Concordia. We expected only to leave our baggage and wander the city until a more reasonable hour. However, the hotel was very accomodating. We were given free bar snacks and complementary drinks from the bar whilst they made up our rooms there and then. The rooms were of good standard, and of course nothing can beat being able to open your window and see the streets of Venice. I had been to Venice many times over the years, staying in the surrounding area and arriving daily by ferry, but this was my first stay in Venice itself. I was not disapointed. Yes the room was of the typical Italian size, but the service and atmosphere second to none. Unfortunately I did not get the room with the view over St. Marks, I have not idea how much that would have cost. Our room cost approx £150 per night, which considering the location and service is reasonable. We had a great stay.

7.6

We liked our room a lot. Nice venitian decor and marble bath of good size. It looked out towards the Doges Palace. The bells were beautiful to hear (though a bit early). We found the hotel easily because we had read of others having trouble and giving instructions. We used the small bar to meet up with friends. The restaurant suggestion (Franz)was excellent but extremely expensive. Nice breakfast.

8.2

Great little spot right next to St. Marc's Square. Hotel was clean and well equiped. Very accomodating. We stayed in room 314, the only room with a balcony overlooking St.Marc's Cathedral-- beautiful! The bell tower chimes every hour from 7am.

7.9

Very clean, great location. Room was small but that was anticipated. Could hear the restaurant's kitchen below in the early morning and late at night. Would recommend the place with the caveat that you are paying for location.

10

The Concordia was everything it was represented as, on the internet. The location and class was excellent. I would stay there again.

9.9

The air conditioning could have been a bit more powerful, but when we were checking out they were in the vents of the room next door. Possibly there was a maintenance problem. Great location. Very outgoing staff.

7.9

Excellent location and very spacious bathroom by Italian standards (even North American standards). Staff was knowledgeable, friendly, and well versed in English. Our only objection was the exorbitant gondala ride you could purchase at the hotel for 110 Euros (sharing with another couple no less) which according to the concierge "was selling very quickly" - we negotiated our own ride for 70 Euros - still a lot but the Gondoliers will not got any lower. Otherwise, the room was spacious and clean but then again the price was pretty high as well. Steps to St. Mark's Piazza was the real bonus. Overall great stay.

10

We had a fantastic experience. Our corner room (#216) overlooked San Marcos Square. I can't recommend it highly enough. We peeked into some other rooms which were also lovely, but none decorated as beautifully as 216. Thank you so much - it was great!

9.8

European hotel, smaller rooms. Quiet location. Very friendly and helpful staff. Very clean. Front desk staff very knowledgable to plan stay in Venice. We would highly recommend this hotel. The location to St Marco Square can't be beat.

9.7

SUPER HOTEL GREAT LOCATION THANK YOU VENERE WILL USE YOU AGAIN

9.5

We were delighted with the welcome and the appearance of our room - very much in the Venetian style. We found dining out was hit and miss so we then decided to use the hotel resataurant. The service and the food could not be faulted. The staff were very friendly and attentive, also the guitar player! The location was just right and overall we had a wonderful stay and would be happpy to recommend this hotel. Looking forward to our next visit.

8.1

The hotel was in a perfect location. Easy access in/out of the island as well as to major areas within the island. The room size were perfect for my family. Reception were helpful with excellent English. Umbrellas were supplied on wet days as well. Price is not cheap, but a very good quality hotel.
