Really enjoyed our stay at the Carlton on the Grand Canal. The hotel has lovely decor throughout—stylish and full of quirky charm that gives it real character. It’s situated at the top end of the Grand Canal, so it is a bit of a walk from the main sights, but still very accessible with good transport links nearby. Overall, a great hotel with a lot of personality—would happily stay again!

The hotel is close to the train station. The door to the room did not close well so we heard a lot of noise from the hall. The room was warm and there was no air conditioning. We were told that the city didn't allow them to run AC in April. Opening the windows helped a little but mosquitoes entered the room and buzzed around our heads all night long. The bed was hard. The toilet was right next to a warm radiator.

Nice hotel, staff were not very friendly, very abrupt and not helpful on the front desk especially to my wife. Room was nice, cleaners were good, view wasn't good at all so check if you want a view otherwise it's the roof and Aircon pipes. Would use again just for the accessibility. Walking distance to the bus stop and tram stop. Really good for vaporetto access. Breakfast was just right. Crowded at 830 onwards so get as early breakfast as you can.

Very close to the train station, just be prepared to carry your bags up and down one of the largest bridges on the island, or pay someone 15 euros to do it for you. Everything is within easy walking distance (at most 1.3 miles).

Old school glamour

Such a lovely start to our honeymoon, arriving direct to the hotel from the airport via vaporetti. The hotel is beautiful, with extremely helpful and friendly staff. After checkout m, we were able to leave our bags with the hotel so that we could explore more of beautiful Venice. Hallways are a little tired, but this didn’t impact our wonderful stay. Would definitely stay again!

Great Staff Great Location. Horrible Room

The location was great. The staff was fantastic. The room was horrible. So small that we couldn't even open our suitcases. Again. The hotel lobby is nice. The staff is AMAZING. The pictures do not really represent the hotel. It's older than the pictures represent. The rooftop area was closed the whole time we were there. The location is great. The room we had was equivalent to the second to last picture on this website. Staff went above and beyond.
