Overall, it's a good hotel, conveniently located near the people mover. The staff were great, the room was clean and the breakfast was fantastic. The internet was flakey at times and would go out entirely sometimes but otherwise it was a great stay.

The hotel is in a perfect location. Close to the train station (2 bridges, 5 minute walk). The hotel is on a smaller canal but very close to the grand canal. Our room was very quiet when we had the door closed (we had a balcony) but open, we enjoyed hearing the water and hustle and bustle of Venice. Breakfast was very good with many pastries, fruits, yogurts, meat and cheese offerings. There were dozens of restaurants nearby plus stores for picking up snacks and drinks. We would definitely stay again.

The best part of my stay here was the hotel breakfast. Great spread of food. The room itself was fine - nothing special, but about what I expected given the price. We only stayed for one night after arriving late into the airport. Very conviently located from Piazzale Roma

Adorable boutique hotel
Great location by the train station or bus terminal. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The inside was very cute. Breakfast was yummy with inside and outside seating. The AC was the only thing lacking. But that’s pretty normal in Europe. Definitely would stay again or recommend to friends.

Wonderful Boutique Hotel, room was beautiful and very clean. Staff are attentive to guests. Breakfast was extremely nice with a very kind attendant. Lovely assortment of fruits and pastries and a fantastic coffee service. The location of this hotel is a great starting point for your visit to Venice. It is located extremely close to bus and train station and just a few stops away from the water taxis and gondolas

Nice Clean Hotel with good location
First time in Venice for two nights with my daughter. Hotel Gardena was a good fit for us - good location with everything we wanted to see very walkable. Hotel is older and has basic amenities but what I would expect in a Venice at a non-chain hotel. Most importantly it was clean and comfortable.

Wonderful Stay!
We really enjoyed our stay at the Gardena Hotel we had a second floor room overlooking the canal. It was remodeled and the bed was very comfortable. Receptionist at the front desk was pleasant and the breakfast was basic but very tasty. They stored our luggage until we were ready to catch the ferry and even gave me supplies to make name tags for by bags. Wonderful customer service and although it's a long walk to St Marks Square the location wasn't crowded and was beautiful.

We arrived by train and walked over several bridges (lots of stairs) to the hotel. It took us about 20 minutes with our heavy suitcases, you may want to hire a porter and cart! The hotel is just off the Grand Canal walkway. Lots of stores and restaurants nearby. Hotel check in was easy and they had friendly staff. They have an elevator! The room was small in a traditional European way with a comfortable bed. The shower.was a bit tight, if you dropped anything. The breakfast is extensive for a Continental breakfast, so yummy!

The staff is great, location is very convenient, however, our room on the first floor was completely rundown and in unacceptable condition. Peeling and chipped bathroom tile and paint, stains on walls and floor, no shower curtain or glass to prevent water from soaking the floor. It was worse than anywhere I have ever encountered, not acceptable outside of a third world country. Renovated rooms on the second floor are very nice. I cannot recommend this hotel unless you are able to ensure that your room has been renovated.

Nice little hotel in great area
Overall a great experience. The only gripe is that we could not control air in our room. It was a bit stuffy when we arrived, and they said we could not us AC until a later date. Later in spring I guess. We had to keep the windows propped open much of the time, even when sleeping. However, that didn’t keep us from enjoying our stay. The staff was very good.

On Point For It’s 3-Star Rating
It’s a 3-star hotel, please keep in mind this review is based on a 3-star hotel. The hotel is small cause space is limited in Venice, but the bathroom size is decent enough. The breakfast options are limited, but the American coffee is good. Every employee we interacted with was great. The A.C. was not turned on due to a city ordinance, so you had to open the windows to get fresh air. But the problem with this was that mosquitoes got in the room, leaving my husband and I with plenty of bites. The hotel could easily place screens on the windows, however we did not see a single window throughout the city with a screen. So maybe the city doesn’t allow screens? Hotels are expensive in Venice due to its small size, and we didn’t feel like breaking the bank for a hotel here since we still had a couple more cities to visit on our Italian trip. So for the price we paid the hotel was a fair deal. Bonus points for the hotel - we were allowed to leave our luggage after checking out at no extra cost, this was super helpful as we still had plans to explore the city on our last day there.
