The room had a space of less than 9 sq. meters and the standard (but not the price !) was much below that of the other rooms of the hotel. This room should not be given to customers who have booked months in advance.

Would recommend La Calcina and would stay in this property again. In a nice area with the outdoor restaurant being on a pontoon. Restaurant food excellant but pricey like most restaurants in Venice. Staff very helpful.

The bedroom was very small (this was told to us when we booked)and early morning there was noise from the kitchens below the bedroom window which woke us up. We would return if we had a larger quieter room at the same price of 170 euros per night.

Very comfortable pensionne. Excellent breakfast in lovely surroundings. Room was typically European small, but adequate. Dinner offered at a discounted rate to guests only. Was not impressed with dinner. Best suited for adults.

La Calcina is perfect in almost every way. The location is on the geudecca canal facing south, so the restaurant and outside dining pick up every ray of sun on a winters day. (might be hot in summer)My single room was small,(but who needs big), it was immaculately clean, had a view of the canal. Breakfast was typical fare, but you could order a hot breakfast (extra)if you chose. The staff were very accomodating and multilingual. They made everything easy. La Calcina is "genteel", quiet, old fashioned, POLITE, and lovely. It is easy to get to from the airport (take Alilugna Rosa line to Zattere for 13 Euros) It is less than a block to La Calcina with NO BRIDGES! Grand Canal Accademia bridge about 3 blocks. The area is quiet with no huge tour groups wandering about. Zattere has no shopping to speak of which probably keeps the numbers down...but it has several restaurants and bars and gelaterias. would not recommend this hotel to families. It is not the place to go if you want to be in the thick of things. For a few days of peace and charm, and service, Perfecto!

The hotel was excellent. People very kind. The breakfast was excellent and served in a beautifull table with a nice view of the channel. However, I must say that I was a bit angry because in the reservation they offered a room with private toilette. The actual room didn't have a toilette. I had a private toilette (only for me) but in other part of the hotel. This was very unconfortable! They said that this was the only room like this they had, and that next time the would give me one with a "real" private toilette. I would come back to the hotel if the give me a room with private toilette.

My experience in Hotel La Calcina is perfect! Although the room is a little small, but is very clean and well decorated. The hotel is located just in front of the canals, where you can enjoy the beautiful view, and you can go to St. Marco by foot or by vapoury boat conveniently.The staffs are all very friendly, and the breakfast is excellent! There are lots of choice in breakfast, which is very rare in Italy.

We had the ultimate "room with a view". Location is excellent - a short walk to St Marco but away from the crowds. Also, right next to the water bus stop from the airport. The restaurant takes some beating too. In summary, not a cheap place to stay but we felt it was worth every penny (Euro).

I loved this place. Was only able to stay one night, but it made a lovely break between the end of a cruise and catching the plane home. Location is superb, wonderful view, close to cafes and gelato (!) and only a few steps from the vaporetto and Alalaguna stops at Zattere. Pretty, calm, peaceful room with comfortable bed and better-than-average breakfast buffet.

It was my first stay in Venice and I enjoyed all of it. Hotel La Calcina is an excellent address in Venice, quietly located at the Giudecca canal. The Vaporetto stop is just 100m away, the Ponte Accademia in 5 minutes walking distance, teatro La Fenice in 10 minutes. The room was not huge, but o.k., I got a single room with bathroom across the corridor, but that was according to the booking and absolutely fine for me. Nice the small cabinet in the room with a sink. The single room had not a view over the Giudecca canal, but to a small side canal, nice mumbling of the water in the night... The price: well, it's Venice, and for the quality and the absolute calm location it's o.k. The staff is very friendly, both at the reception and in the restaurant, where the hotel offers a special dinner menu for hotel guests: very good dishes and good quality open wine. Nice view to the Giudecca canal. Also the breakfast buffet (included) was good, excellent coffee.

Pleasant stay, next time would have double for single occupancy as single rooms a bit small/dark and near human traffic on stairways. This hotel better if you don't need St Mark's Square as that was a bit of a hike every day (for Carnevale), otherwise lovely sunny location on Zattere great for soaking up the sun and eating ice cream even in January! Nice restauarants, gelaterias and even a Billa supermarket nearby. Excellent connection with boats for Piazzala Roma then buses to airports.

Beautiful location on the Zattere. Quiet environment. Easy to reach. Our room was located near the staff staircase and above the kitchens so was a little noisy early in the morning. But staff were preparing the excellent buffet breakfast! This hotel was recommended by friends and we will recommend to others and certainly stay there again.

Found the hotel very clean, with very helpful staff. Hotel location is very good in terms of access to main attractions in Venice, and it's got direct access to the airport too. Room was very, very warm.

Excellent location in a lovely part of Venice. We found it really handy not just in terms of easy access to the sights in Venice itself, but for getting to and from the airport (the water bus stops almost directly outside the hotel)- something to think about if you don't tend to travel light! The staff were welcoming and helpful and we'd definitely come back here again.

Hotel was excellent for central Venice. Room was very small, I had to rearrange furniture to fit my average sized suitcase into an accessable position. Staff very friendly and helpful. A good hotel for the price, I would stay there again

I was pleasantly surprised with the hotel. I arrived early from an overnight train ride and they accomodated me with an early check-in. The room was perfect for a single traveler and had very easy access. The breakfast was fab and included with the room. Will definitely stay there again.

I would definitely stay in La Calcina again. The location on the Zattere away from the tourist tunnels provided a welcome respite, while still being accesible to the things we wanted to do. First-rate location, first-rate, helpful staff, amazing prices for Venice. RS

I had a frustrating experience at this hotel. The website says that every room has a bathroom and TV, but the single I reserved had neither. I paid 20 euros more for my first night to stay in another room; it was raining and I planned on staying in to watch some italian TV. The staff could not get the flat screen TV to work. I did have an excellent experience at their restaurant.

The food was really good and I live in San Francisco, where the standards are high. I was there for 8 days and found the staff to be friendly and kind. I had a single room and it was very very small...

Wecoming staff and clean, spacious rooms. There were building works on the canal in front of the hotel when we visited in February (but lots of building works in Venice in February, as we discovered) but they did not disturb us. I would definately book again.
