Hotel Savoia y Jolanda

Hotel Savoia y Jolanda

We stayed 3 nights in this hotel. It had the most perfect location - overlooking the lagoon and less than 5 minutes walk from St Marks Square.

The views from the hotel are stunning - over St Mark's Basin to the island of San Giorgio. It is on the main transportation route - San Zaccaria (number 16) waterbus stop. We had numerous pieces of luggage though, so arrived and departed on a water taxi. The stop for the water-taxi is also just outside the hotel.

We booked the room directly with the hotel - it cost about £300 per night - so not cheap, but nothing comes at a bargain price in Venice. We needed a room suitable for us and our 4 year old son, so opted for a junior suite. We also wanted a water view, and were unable to get all of these requirements confirmed, other than booking directly with the hotel itself.

The room was fairly large - it had a double bed and huge sofa bed for our son. The furnishings were grand and ornate - lots of Murano glass light fixtures and old paintings, dark wooden furniture and opulent wallpaper. There was a mini-bar, hairdryer and flat screen television. The bathroom was also fairly large with a shower.

By far the best thing about our hotel room though was the view. We had 2 full length floor to ceiling windows, each opened out onto a little balcony and a picture perfect scene beyond. The lagoon, with gondolas, cruise ships and other boat traffic coming and going at all hours was just fascinating. When we arrived in the room, we sat for about 2 hours just watching everything. It was wonderful.

The hotel had a restaurant, but we did not have dinner there during our stay. We preferred instead to go a little further afield and try other local restaurants. We did have breakfast though - very nice, but not really luxury standard. You can eat outside on the pavement part of the restaurant or indoors.

The hotel is so convenient - steps away from St Marks Square and with a water bus stop just outside. I would definitely recommend it most highly. It is not cheap, but for a real once in a lifetime treat it is amazing.

Great location but a closet-like room. 18" on either side of twin beds right beside each other. Surprisingly good closet and drawer space. Two chairs and a small table. Very low lighting made reading difficult if not impossible. Bathroom was large, modern, and well-lit. Room was along a noisy alleyway the did not allow sleeping in. Staff less than pleasant. Breakfast buffet was fine. I would not recommend this hotel.
