Hotel Villa Casanova - Venice Lido Venice

9.6

We had a wonderful stay in this bed&breakfast and can certainly recommend it.

10

The location was excellent. No up and down steps with luggage to get there. Easy access from airport. Easy access to all areas of Venice.

9.4

A great welcoming. Thanks to the owner for this nice stay.

7.9

9.6

Séjour délicieux. Hôtel très agréable, calme, atmosphère douce et apaisante, petit déjeuner copieux. Prendre le vaporetto pour aller et venir à l'île du Lido permet une halte rafraichissante d'où l'on contemple Venise , embrumée le matin et toute éclairée le soir. Pour les amoureux

I'm so happy we decided to stay at Villa Casanova and on Lido. It was a perfect retreat from the crowds and hustle & bustle of Venice. The staff was friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet was delicious with fresh fruit, homemade rolls & croissants served outdoors in peaceful surroundings.

9.1

Bei früheren Venedigbesuchen wohnten wir immer in der Stadt. Seit unserem Aufenthalt in der Villa Casanova(Lido)werden wir diese immer der hektischen Stadt vorziehen. Der nächste Trip für August 09 ist schon gebucht. Natürlich wieder Villa Casanova, denn wir fühlten uns hier sehr wohl.

10

Accueil sympathique, tout est très bien, à recommander

8.8

Great place to stay: in a quiet, beautiful street near the vaporetto to Venice, nice house. Rooms are spacious enough, with a small but always very clean bathroom. Simple but good breakfast buffet. It was just all we needed.

9.0

Service and facilities : some are BETTER than indicated (exemple : you can take a hotel's bike for free...), somme are WORTH than indicated : for the morning food, it isn't really BIO (all the manufactured food (butter, tee...) wasn't bio, so for the rest you can think of it...), and it was IMPORTANT for us (we are as aften as possible eating food with NO POISON inside...)...

9.9

This bed and breakfast place is awesome! My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Breakfast was great and the location is very close to the waterbus line, so getting to and from Venice is very easy. The place is welcoming and price is very reasonable. They also have free bikes for guests to use and we took advantage of that and explored Lido.. it was absolutely a wonderful experience. Can't wait to return again.

8.5

Our room was near the stairs and the breakfestroom, so it was a little bit noisy. The location itself is quit. Very friendly emlpoyees; they gave us bikes for free to make a lovely 4 hours tour along the lido.

8.5

A small but lovely mid range hotel. Situated on a quiet street very close to the boats-so easy to get into central Venice.Several restaurants near by. Friendly staff.Had free use of bicycles to explore the lido.Only thing I didn't like so much was the price of the room had doubled because it was Easter. Had a great time and would definately recommend the hotel. And Venice-what can I say-stunning!

10

This is a nice small hotel for trip to Venice. It's located in a quiet area in walking distance to the ferry station. It takes just 15 - 20 min. to get to the main attractions of Venice.

9.7

Extremely welcoming and a really easy walk from the bus stop - even with cases takes about 7 or 8 minutes. It was great staying just outside of Venice as we got a chance to relax and enjoy the slower pace.

9.7

Our stay at the hotel "Villa Casanova" was wonderful. The service is fantastic and the personal was very friendly! We would like to spend there more time!

10

It was such wonderful stay that we are looking forward to going back to Villa Casanova sooon.. Everyone should experience Venice with their stay at Villa Casanova.

9.9

Villa Casanova was my favorite spot on our month long trip through Europe. Alessandro was amazing and the place is charming and quiet. I wasn't sure how staying in Lido would be (I stayed in Venice my last trip) but it was brilliant and I'd rather stay there anytime. It's a short walk from the waterbus to Villa Casanova and only a 10 minute waterbus ride to Venice. You can buy a card that covers unlimited transport and entrance to the museums that's decent value for money. Rather than being inconvenient, the trip out to Lido at the end of each day was a welcome change from the rather cramped streets of Venice. The hotel is in a lovely, quiet area and is very warm and welcoming. Breakfast was great and the room we stayed in was spacious. I'd definitely stay there again.

8.2

Very friendly person managing the hotel, spoke in English and gave us some good information

8.4

First stay in Venezia for my husband's birthday : very nice hotel, not too expensive. Romantic guest house...

8.5

A lovely place to stay, easy to get the boat to the main parts of Venice. Very welcoming and helpful owners.

9.9

Leaving Cinqueterre, we departed for our drive to Venezia. My wife was a little apprehensive, as we knew we had to take a ferry to Lido from Venezia, and as such we didn't know what to expect. Let me tell you, arriving around 6pm into Venezia towards the ferry, the apprehension rose as we saw the stinky marshes surrounding Venezia and on which it was built. Then things started to turn for the better. Our Garmin GPS lead us to the ferry, to a tee, without problems. We parked the car on the ferry, and went to the top deck, to observe our journey towards Lido. By this point, the night was setting in, and a nice treat was to see a Costa cruiseliner leaving and maneuvering through the larger surrounding canal, with its top showing next to church bell towers, which our own ferryboat followed. Upon arrival on Lido, villa Casanova was a 5 minute drive, which was very easy to get to. And guess what folks, free parking!!!! Where can you get that in ITALY?????!!!! The villa is nicely lit, exuding a very warm, welcoming feeling. We were promptly greeted and given our set of keys to room 11, which is on the top floor of a 3-storey villa. Without even seeing the room, my wife had such a good feeling, that she asked to extend our stay for another night. To her delight, we were able to extend our stay in the same room. We lugged our suitcases to the 3rd floor (note folks, how many times do we have to say TRAVEL LIGHT, in our reviews), and opened the door ... and tadaaaaaa we loved it!!! The room felt very rustic, with exposed beams and wood floors, that creaked in some spots, which we loved. It has simple furnishings, but a nice surprised was a fridge that was stacked with goodies, for a fee. This is not usually the standard in B&Bs. The bathroom was simple with a stand-up shower. The only thing that could be improved here were the shower doors which stick, as you try to slide them, as well as a re-cock. A great value in this B&B is usage of Wi-Fi FREE internet, as we had a lapt

9.1

This is a nice place to stay. We enjoyed our time in Venice. It is just a quick walk from the water taxi. My husband and daughter and I thought it was fine. We were in a top room/attic room and it was a little snug but comfortable. The breakfast was great and the owners were very nice.

10

We stayed 4 nights at Hotel Casanova and thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. It is in an excellent location in a beautiful and quiet residential area about a quarter mile from the Lido vaporetto stop and the downtown area of Lido. We would recommend Lido for a quiet rest from the congestion of Venice after seeing the sights each day. The hotel is exceptionally clean and comfortable, with a wonderful breakfast buffet each morning, complete with your choice of coffee, tea, cappuccino, latte, etc., all freshly made. The proprietor was most courteous and helpful. We would definitely stay there again if we have the opportunity!

7.8

We enjoyed our stay at Hotel Villa Casanova. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the location was very quiet. The beds were rather uncomfortable and the room itself was in need of redecoration, but it was very clean. More of a B&B than a hotel and price reflects this.

9.6

An excellent B&B which lived up to all our expectations. Alessandro could not have been more helpful and welcoming. Be careful, though, because the "superior" room is labeled that way as it has an additional single bed. We thought it was because it had the 4-poster bed, so ended up paying for a bed we didn't need. No problem.

8.8

An oasis in Venezia. So peaceful after the Venice mainland with its hoards of visitors. Lido is green and leafy with many trees, plenty of restaurants, a few shops and a relaxed atmosphere. Villa Casanova was a great place to stay at a great price and very easy to locate (a short distance from the Vaporetto stop) when arriving with suitcases.

9.7

A Really excellent place to stay!

7.8

Alessandro is SUPER nice, always with a smile and ready to help. The hotel is very well located and easy to find. The vaporetto is only a 5 minutes walk and believe me, you need to stay on Lido if you want to sleep at night. Very quiet neighborhood and restaurants are plenty to be found around.

9.2

Great location, friendly staff, spacious and clean room. Staying at the Lido when visiting Venice is very pleasant. The hotel is located in a beautiful and quiet street, still it is conveniently close to the water bus stop and close to the Lido's main street where you can find loads of restaurants. Beach at a walking distance. Water buses run every 10 min. (every 20 min at night 24/24) to the main island (San Marco square about 15 min ride).

8.6

Very nice place- quiet and clean. Good breakfast. Excellent coffee. Very helpful staff. Rooms very small and some upstairs rooms with low beams requiring caution when walking around. Closeness to transportation a big plus. We would stay there again and would recommend it to anyone.

9.9

We stayed for two nights at Villa Casanova during our vacation. I thought that staying on the Lido would be a disadvantage, but that was not the case. The Villa Casanova is in a quiet, elegant neighborhood that was a relief from the congestion of Venice, and getting around on the vaporetti was remarkably easy. Our room was spacious and comfortable, very quiet, and the service and staff were excellent. I would definitely stay at the Villa Casanova again and would recommend it to friends and family.

7.6

We were in Venezia and in Lido for the second time. It's very pleasant to arrive to St Marc Square with the boat. The hotel Villa Casanova was very nice and quiet and the breakfast was enough hearty.

9.8

Although not "just renovated", still a very very NICE hotel, very friendly and trustfull athmosphere, nice staff, nice guests. Superior room is OK, but rather standart... though clean, spacious, cool, with all you need, etc. Breakfast is FANTASTIC! Price is great for Venice! Lido is OK, has nice cafes and pizzerias, and it's very pleasant and truly romantic to take a vaporetto first thing in the morning and to come back home in the night by sea... We loved our stay there, and absolutely nothing disappointed us. Thanks to venere.com we'd made the right choice.

8.9

Our stay at Villa Casanova was overall very pleasant. The bed was comfortable, room very spacious and comfortable and the staff friendly. There were very nice restaurants and shops within walking distance and Lido was so much more laid back than Venice - a great place to wind down after a long day battling with the tourist hordes. Only disappointing thing (and this is a wee-bit trivial) was the morning coffee.

8.2

The location of the hotel, although on the neighbouring Lido island, has a very convenient location. The surrounding area offers food stores and restaurants. The access to Venice island is easy. It is actually quite nice to cross back the lagoon (10-15 min from St Marc's plaza) at the end of the day or the night.

9.9

We have just returned from 3 days in Venice. 6 adults and 2 children to celebrate a 25th Wedding Anniversary. We have stayed on Venice Lido before and were a little dissapointed when our usual hotel was unable to offer us two triple rooms and a double. We were able to book the rooms we needed at the Villa Casanova and decided to "take a chance" .... From the outside the Villa Casanova is not too impresive and is really a big independent Villa in a residential road. It's not a HOTEL but more a guest house. The location on the Lido is almost perfect and a genuine 5 minutes walk from the Vaporetto stop on the quay. The "Ingresso" or reception is fairly basic but adequate .. HOWEVER the rooms are of a standard that would compliment a quality hotel. We had three rooms in total. two triple rooms on the top floor and a romantic double room on the second floor that included a four poster bed. All the rooms were very nicely decorated and clean throughout. The bathrooms were fully loaded with clean fluffy white towels and everything else you would need including a hair dryer. The rooms were much better than we expected and we really could find no fault at all. The shower was instantly hot and powerful. the Air conditioning or heating (Its the same unit) was responsive and worked well. Bed was comfortable and everything was spotlessly clean. On our previous visit to Venice Lido we stayed at a four star hotel .. We all agreed that the ROOMS at the Villa Casanova were probably better! ..... Even the Frigo bar offered chilled mineral water for €1.50 or a small bottle of Prosecco for €3 .. Soft Drinks were €2 ..... We all know that most "Hotels" LOAD the prices on their frigo bar drinks .. but here we were pleasantly suprised as the drinks were actually fairly inexpensive. Where the Casanova falls a little short is "downstairs". BUT it's important to remember that THIS hotel falls into the "ECONOMY" bracket and the prices we paid for our rooms were AMAZING ... It fe

9.8

Sehr angenehmes Hotel. Am Lido zu wohnen hat mehrere Vorteile: Man kann mit dem Auto zum Hotel fahren, Vaporetto ist leicht erreichbar, es ist preiswerter. Villa Casanova ist eine tolle Alternative zu Stadthotels.

7.3

nice hotel. good area to stay.clean rooms. good breakfest. not too busy.new year is not too big but they dont know firewerks (-: boots the whole day and night. we never had to wait.

9.8

My wife and I stayed here on our Honeymoon. The staff were excellent, welcoming and friendly (and this was before they knew it was our Honeymoon!). The hotel itself is just a few minutes walk from restaurants in the Lido and the main waterbus stop for the island, but far enough away that there is no noise from either. Warm and welcoming, the hotel is well furnished if a little outdated in places but overall this just added to the charm. While we were staying there were plenty of families with small to teenage children and all seemed as happy and relaxed as we were at breakfast, which was a modest but well stocked continental breakfast buffet, with the staff serving real coffee in their familiar relaxed yet professional style. Overall we loved this hotel - it helped make our honeymoon the special occasion we wanted it to be. If you are looking for ostentatious and lavish you might be better looking elsewhere but I'd recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a relaxing, romantic holiday

8.3

All was perfect, but we have 2 problems 1. Is an old house, and if you are in the first floor, and the upper room walks across their room, you hear everything, so it's annoying when the second floor people arrive at 12 at night 'cause you wake up. 2. There's nobody in Lido in winter

8.9

Wir waren bereits zum 2. Mal in der Villa Casanova (und bestimmt nicht zum lezten Mal). Optimales Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis. Sehr nette, hilfsbereite Inhaber, sehr gutes Frühstück. Die Vaporetto-Station erreicht man zu Fuß in nicht mal 5 Minuten.

8.1

The view out of the small roof-light of the room in the second floor was poor and there was only (space for) one chair in the room. But otherwise it was an excellent stay.

8.9

We really liked the Villa Casanova, and the 10 minute ferry ride from St. Mark's Square wasn't a problem. We enjoyed getting away from the maddening crowds of Venice. Take time to explore Lido. The beach is only 10 minutes away from the villa. The villa was very nice, the breakfast was excellent.

9.4

What a find. Had never stayed over on the Lido - and would now not think of staying anywhere else when going to Venice. The hotel was spot on - an absolute haven away from the madness of St Mark's - but only 14 minutes from the Piazza on the boat. Take the time to explore the Lido - there is a wonderful bar on the beach on the other side of the Lido where you can drink great wine and watch the Adriatic - without spending a fortune. Would heartily recommend the Villa Casanova - only thing was the directions from the website weren't great - but a very helpful local chap actually walked us round to the hotel, which was only a few minutes from the Lido stop.

10

Comfy, quiet and very reasonable!! Less than 10 minute boat rides to St. Mark's!! walking distance to the beach and the vaparetto station. Great to stay on Lido and get away from the crowds in Venice. We will stay here again when we return to Venice!!

9.4

Estuvimos 5 días en Venecia de los cuales la primera noche fue en este Hotel y realmente hemos quedado muy satisfechos, la habitación era la suite romática y era muy cómoda. Otro punto añadido que desconocíamos era que se incluye en la habitación la posibilidad de utilizar bicicletas del hotel para trasladarse y pasear en Lido. En resumen es altamente recomendable.

9.7

I had researched many options for a 3 night stay in Venice for myself, my husband, and our 5 and 13 year old children. Villa Casanova got such excellent ratings compared to other Venetian hotels that once we had decided to opt for Lido rather than the city, there was no contest. I have to say that our trust was well-rewarded. We arrived at around 9pm in Venice on an Easyjet flight from England and took the Alilaguna to Lido, which took about an hour. When we disembarked we walked with our suitcases for about 5 minutes along the sea front and easily found the hotel, which is posted from the frontage road. Our room was immediately next to the lobby and all 4 of us were sharing - twin beds for the children and a queen for my husband and I. The bathroom was compact but clean, and although I had been concerned about our proximity to the hallway, we did not hear any noise outside the room. The air conditioning was great, and the breakfast area really pleasant - tables and chairs on a patio with a continental-style buffet and Alessandro, the owner, making cappucinos and hot chocolate to his guests' preferences. In the morning it was an easy stroll back to the harbor to the vaporetto for the 15 minute ride over to San Marco. Venice was as bewitching as ever, but after running around the sights all day it was always pleasant to return to the peace and tranquillity of the hotel in the evening. When we asked for a recommendation for a pizzeria one night, one of the staff recommended "Ai Do Matti" (At the 2 crazy people's place) which did excellent, enormous, cheap pizzas and was situated right next to a gelateria for dessert - a big hit with all of us, and only 10 minutes form the hotel on the main street walking away from the harbor. We never got near the beaches, but did get to view a spectacular thunderstorm playing over Venice on our last night, which we watched from the Lido harbor and then braved as our vaporetto took us up the Grand Canal one last time. On o

Lido is a perfect place to stay when visiting Venice. You can hop on a boat and be there in 15 minutes and then escape back to the more relaxed and less crowded island of Lido. Hotel Villa Casanoba exceeded our standards. It was a great place. The staff were fantastic, so friendly and helpful at all times. It was great that they gave us the bikes for free and were so generous with the breakfast. If only there was a swimming pool!

10

We stayed in a room for 4. It had one double bed and 2 single beds. My best friends and I really enjoyed our stay at Casanova and on the Lido. We especially loved that the inn had bikes that we could use free of charge (on the Lido of course). Also the Lido is a very charming island with plenty of restaurants and a beach. We didn't mind the 40 minute vaporetto ride to the island. The breakfast was also great there. The staff would make any drink for you on request. If I ever go back to Venice (and I hope I will), I will stay there again.

9.3

The bed-n-breakfast was very nice. The staff was very kind, always saying hello and asking if there was anything they could do for you (they spoke multiple languages and very clear English). The area was very quiet, tranquil (which can be had to find in the Venice area)yet had much to offer. We walked the area at night and it was very pleasant (never felt unsafe.) The rooms are large (and the bath the largest we had on our 3 city tour). Rooms were very clean, it is an old building but has been decorated and furnished with modern items. (A/C got really cold first night but then didn't get as cold as I would have liked after - but better than the warm stickiness outside). The boat takes you within an easy walk to the hotel and boats constantly run making it convient to island hop all night. Food places are very close and offer great atmosphere. (Non of the food was bad, nothing superiour) but all of the local waitstaff was very pleasant, helpful, and understood a lot of English. Would definitely stay here again, Lido is so close to the other areas and not nearly the traffic, there are also some close beaches. There is a sign for the hotel (like a street sign) right when you get to the road - most street signs are had to find - but locals <especially cab drivers> know right where the hotel is.)

9.7

It was simply an "excellent" stay.

8.5

The hotel was a 5 min walk from the water taxi/bus and was easy to find from the e-mailed directins we had been given by the hotel. We had 2 adults and 2 children in the same room which made it a little cramped over the 4 days we stayed. However we would certainly stay again and recommend it to others. There are a number of restaurants within a 5 min walk.

8.4

First, eat at a local Lido restaurant named 'Favorita'...we had an awesome meal at a good price there. Second, know that this is a nice little three star hotel in quiet Nord Lido. It is not on the water, but is in a quiet area and is away from the very fast paced Venice. BEWARE: You should be prepared to ride the waterbus to and from Lido to Venice. If this does not sound like a fun way to spend 30 to 45 mins (waiting and riding on the bus), then stay on the main island. If you are looking for a hotel away from all the people and you find slow boat trips to be soothing, then this is a great place for you. Lastly, the breakfast is good and I enjoyed each Cappuccino!

9.8

Had a fantastic stay at the Villa Casanova in Feb 07. Staff very friendly. Fantastic value for money with generous breakfast and great location. Excellent restaurants nearby. Cannot wait to go back.

9.9

My mom and I stayed for a total of 7 nights at Villa Casanova. Upon arrival, we were warmly received and offered a scrumptious breakfast—the cappuccino was awesome! The hotel staff was very helpful, informative, and hospitable. Our flight information changed the night before our departure, and they readily agreed to let use the hotel fax machine to receive copies of our updated flight itinerary. They also have umbrellas for the guests to use on rainy days. What thoughtfulness! Our room was very spacious and comfortable. The towel warmer was nice; I wish I had ones of these at home. :) The hotel is conveniently located near both vaporetto and Alilaguna stops, and St. Mark’s Square is only a stone’s throw away. I highly recommend Villa Casanova, and we hope to be back next year again for Carnevale.

9.9

A wonderful place to stay!! My mother and I stayed here for the start of Carnevale, and we were impressed by the beauty, value, friendliness, cleanliness and lovely atmosphere of the Villa Casanova. The eco-friendliness and organic breakfast selections were another draw for me. A true find in Venice--I took a small stack of business cards with me and have already given them away to friends asking for recommendations. The fact that the hotel is on Lido is an advantage, in my opinion--it's not hard to get to and is soo much quiter and less crowded than the center. By the time you wander around looking for a tiny hotel in the heart of Venice, you will have spent as much time as you take getting on the Vaporetto and going to Lido. This was a wonderful, wonderful hotel and I can't wait to go back. It would be perfect for a romantic getaway... :)

8.9

A nice hotel with comptetent staff in a nice place, with easy access to down town via the vaporetto.

9.1

We stay with my girlfriend 3 nights in this nice hotel.Big room + big breakfast with lots of choice.

9.8

Amazing place. Value for money indeed @ 59 euro. Hard to even find a criticism! Welcoming staff. Tastefully decorated room. Bathroom contained towel warmer (nice touch for venice in autumn). Suggested neighbourhood restaurant great. Included Breakfast great (cappucino ****) Extended my stay without problems. Easy from train to lido via vaporetto no. 1 and similarly regular services to st marks. Not quite on the water as indicated on map. A totally overall an amazing experience for the price.

9.1

Ich habe mich in der Villa Casanova sehr wohl gefühlt. Dabei muss ich auch die Betten hervorheben, die für italienische Verhältnisse exeellent waren

8.4

PRECIOSO HOTEL CON TRANQUILIDAD Y BIEN COMUNICADO CON VAPORETTO. RECOMENDABLE DAR UNA VUELTA EN BICI POR EL LIDO(TE LA PRESTA EL HOTEL). MUY BUEN DESAYUNO Y HABITACIONES.PERFECTO.

10

Absolut empfehlenswertes Hotel mit super Frühstück. Sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Trattoria Africa (ca. 5 Minuten Gehweg) war ein guter Tip des Personals.

9.9

Excellent facilities and employee compentency. Would like to come back and experience the area more.... Lovely area and people. This is a great clean, economic affordable facility for everyone. Off the main stream from high tourist area in Venice, a quiet respite from it all. Loved the experience. Thanks

8.9

In advance of our stay, the staff at Casanova sent us directions of how to get to the Lido Island and the hotel. This included detailed information regarding the water boats to the get to the Island including boat numbers and times. The Lido is only around a 35 minute water boat journey from the main train and bus station in Venice and you can buy a very cheap pass for the day or a few days. The water boats run all night to the Lido which made this very convenient - it was nice to be away from the centre of Venice and this was a lot cheaper than most places on the main Island od Venice in June. There is a 24 hour reception which was very useful as we arrived around midnight. This also means you can come and go as you please. The staff were very helpful and provided us with maps and public transport timetables and advice The rooms were spacious and clean - the breakfast very served out in a very nice garden. Overall, this is a very nice place to stay to visit Venice and we would stay here if we returned to Venice in the future

9.2

Wir (2 Frauen) haben im Juni 2006 4 Tage in Venedig verbracht. Das Hotel hat unsere Erwartungen voll erfüllt. Die Zimmer waren sauber, schön und ruhig gelegen. Die Klimaanlage funktionierte sehr gut. Das Frühstück im Garten war gut und ausreichend. Die Verbindung mit dem Vaporetto nach Venedig ist ausgezeichnet- man kann 24 Stunden hin und her fahren. Am letzten Urlaubstag stellte uns das Hotel kostenlos Fahrräder zur Verfügung, um das Lido zu erkunden. Unser Urlaub war rundum gelungen. Immer wieder gerne.

7.9

Good address; good price; very convenient.

10

This is the best place we stayed in Italy. It was a great value! Great staff, the island was wonderful, great food, great room, great location. We will always stay here when in Venice. We highly recommend it. Thanks for a magnificent visit.

9.7

Very attractive restored Liberty style home on quiet street on the Lido, 10 min walk from vaporetto. Eleven rooms. Charming, courteous owner Alessandro. Excellent breakfast with particularly good coffee. At 85 euros for triple room in March was very good value. Note to Venere users: your comments always much appreciated, but please when mentioning value specify price paid and month, as room rates vary so much.

8.0

I was very impressed with this hotel. The hotel was easy to get to and the room was clean. The room was a bit small, but we had four people in one room. As a double room, it would probably be much larger. Breakfast was great. The hotel was a short walk to the vaporetto stop, and it was a quick trip to the main part of Venice. While it would be nice to stay closer to the heart of Venice, Villa Casanova was an excellent value for the money, and I didn't feel inconvenienced at all by staying on the Lido.

9.7

The hospitality at Villa Casanova was exceptional, and so was the standard and presentation of the rooms. I look forward to returning. My only quibble is that the villa positions itself on maps as being on the sea front, and it most certainly isn't!

10

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Villa Casanova . The room was sparkling clean and very generous in size, as was the bathroom .The breakfast was more than ample and the cappucino freshly made .The manager was courteous and friendly and extremely helpful . I would recommend the Villa Casanova to anyone , it was great.

9.5

immer wieder!

10

A fantastic hotel, great staff. Superb room. Take note though, the mini bar isnt free, though it was indicated to us on arrival it is. Language barrier. But it didnt spoil a thing. We WILL definately be staying there again.

9.7

very good breakfast and coffee, very nice hotel. absolut recommendable

9.5

Se siete in dubbio, sì, prenotate a Villa Casanova: è un albergo veramente bello, la colazione è ottima e abbondante, in 15 minuti si arriva a San Marco. Ci siamo trovati splendidamente.

8.4

Very nice hotel with friendly and competent staff. Nice atmosphere and good location on Lido. We would recommend this accomodation and would not hestitate to return.

9.9

Ottima accoglienza e personale gentile in un ambiente gradevole.

9.7

We selected this property on previous excellent reviews and can agree on the quality of this accommodation. A lovely villa, very close to the boat stops, and easy to find. The staff were polite and helpful, the room was of a good standard and the organic breakfast was great...and all at a fantastic price (although obviously mid January is low season). We enjoyed staying on the Lido and travelling over to Venice main island and it is only around 12 minutes boat ride to St Mark's Square. All in all, a lovely stay at a highly recommended property. (NB The restaurant choice is limited at the Lido but when it is so easy to travel to and from Venice, this is not a problem).

9.9

Beautiful classic villa I would recommend to any friend. Rooms spacious with elegant classic decoration. Very modern systems for air, heat and water. Bathrooms new, spacious and built in noble materials. Villa with eye catching classic landscaping, daily taken care of. Furniture and decoration are classic of very elegant selection and high quality. The owner (Alessandro) took care of us personaly, and made sure our service was of the highest standard.

10

Wir haben wundervolle Tage in der Villa Casanova verbracht. Auch die Hausherren der Villa waren unglaublich freundlich und zuvorkommend - beim nächsten Venedig-Besuch brauchen wir nicht mehr suchen, wo wir wohnen wollen: In der Villa Casanova. Dieses Haus haben wir schon guten Freunden weiter empfohlen.

10

great time

9.6

We spent 3 nights at the hotel and it was a wonderful experience. The room and services is excellent. We especially like the location where you get away from the crowd and enjoy a quite night. We will definitely come back again.

9.7

the hotel was tastefully decorated. hosts were very helpfull and welcoming.Breakfast super.very nice setting away from hub of venice but just ten min. easy boat ride from centre.over all a very nice family run hotel best small establishment i have stayed in.

9.9

We loved the hotel and the location and the helpfulness of the manager. Our only complaint is that we found the bed very hard which made for difficult sleeping.

9.8

The directions to this bed and breakfast from the boat dock at Lido were not as clear as the website suggests. Lovely room and good quality bed linen. Good air conditioning. Very quiet. Delightful neighbourhood. Helpful staff. Delicious organic breakfast. Would recommend that you spend some time strolling the main street at Lido at night to enjoy the nightlife and that you rent a bike and go to the nearby beach.

9.8

Wir haben die drei Tage in Venedig mit unseren beiden Kindern rundum genossen - nicht zuletzt Dank der zentralen, dennoch ruhigen, komfortablen und freundlichen Unterkunft in einem Familienzimmer mit seinem sehr guten Frühstücksservice. Ein sehr angenehmes Haus, das wir ohne "Wenn und Aber" empfehlen können.

What a great weekend we had. The hotel was very relaxing, clean and comfortable, and was only 5 mins walk from the water bus. St.Marks Square is only 10 mins away by water bus, and the hotel was an oasis of peace and calm after spending a busy day sightseeing in Venice. The island of Lido has a great beach, and it was an adventure to hop on and off water buses, to and from The Lido. The hotel helped us in enjoying a fantastic weekend experience in Venice, and I am more than happy in recommending a stay at The Hotel Casanove to anyone. Steven and Jeanette Boyd - Derby, England.

Villa Casanova had an excellent location, with a short walk from the beautiful beach, and a few minutes walk from the Lido port. The boats went frequently to The center of Venice. We used the public boats as sightseeing boats, and had nice tours e.g. on the Grand Canal, to Murano etc. The villa was easy to reach from the airport as well, with the Alilaguna direct to Lido. We stayed in a triple room, it was spacious, with air-condition, minibar and safe. The safe was free of carge! The breakfast garden was lovely, the surroundings were calm and relaxing. We enjoyed our stay very much, and if we ever go back to Venice, we will stay at Villa casanova.

My boyfriend and I loved the B&B Casanova. The breakfasts were good and the location was excellent. It was wise that we decided not to stay in the heart of Venice. The B&B is located in a lovely residential area. We slept very comfortably and peacefully. We bought a 72 hour vaporetto pass which was extremely useful. We went not only to Piazza San Marco everyday but also visted the islands of Murano and Burano. Venice is lovely and the B&B Casanova added to the pleasure of our stay. We highly recommend this B&B.

Hotel Cassanova, was een aangename verassing. Originele kamer, schoon en ondanks dat het een kleine kamer was, leek hij toch ruim. Wij zouden dit hotel zeker aanraden aan onze vrienden en kennissen. Ook wij zouden zeker nog graag een keer willen logeren in dit leuke hotel. Wij wensen de medewerkers van Hotel Cassanove veel succes.

once - arriving by boat - none of the local people seemed to know the street nor name of Villa Casanova. Quiet, professional service and quiet rooms

Wir hatten zusammen mit unserem 16-jährigen Sohn ein sehr schön und vor allem geschmackvoll renoviertes Dreibettzimmer im zweiten Stock. Die Betten waren sehr ordentlich, das Bad sauber, das Frühstück für italienische Verhältnisse umfangreich vom Angebot. Nachts war es vollkommen ruhig, die Atmosphäre des Hauses insgesamt sehr angenehm. Das Auto konnten wir in ca. 500m Entfernung kostenlos abstellen. Wir würden die Villa Casanova jederzeit wieder als Unterkunft wählen.

The big flat was wet (big betroom and 1 other room). the walls have been wet and the color/paint did come from the wall. THe smaller room was ok. A very good falt/house for the quite peaceful vacation. THe owner is very nice and helpfull.

Man fühlt sich hier sehr wohl. Die Zimmer sind sehr sauber und das Personal ist sehr freundlich. Weil nur wenige Zimmer vorhanden sind, fühlt man sich nicht einfach nur abgefertigt und es ist kein Betrieb wie in einer Bahnhofshalle. Dieses Haus kann man nur weiterempfehlen. Zumal es sehr zentral und trotzdem ruhig gelegen ist!

Hotel tout à fait correct. Accés rapide pour Venise. Pratique pour une famille en voiture avec enfants : pas de parking, mais stationnement dans la rue. Petit-déjeuner (buffet) parfait, dans le jardin si le temps le permet.
