Hotel Bella Venezia

Hotel Bella Venezia

8/10 Good
"This hotel has very good location. It’s close to all major attractions and water bus stops. The hotel staffs were all very friendly and helpful. The hotel was clean and is beautifully maintained. My only complaint was that the mattress in my room was old and out of shape. It was worn out and sunk in the middle which made the sleep uncomfortable. The breakfast was really good. It had great varieties and all tasted delicious. We were lucky to sit by the window and get to watch gondolas glided through while eating breakfast. The best way to start a morning."
