Adequate Hotel/Service Could Be Better
The hotel was clean. The rooms are small but adequate. The location is very good. The breakfast is satisfactory. Good for the price. The problem is that guests are allowed to use the elevator during certain hours only. We checked in at approximately 3 p.m. and had to carry heavy luggage up a steep narrow marble stairway. This could have been a major problem for someone unable to lift, since the hotel is unattended after early afternoon; therefore, no one is available to help. Also, we had Hotels.Com check the daily charge for parking our car on the property before we booked the room. They called the hotel and were told the charge would be 10 euros per day which was satisfactory. We stayed 3 nights. When we checked out we were told the charge was $50 euros. We paid the charge and then called Hotels.Com who then contacted the property. Hotels.Com told us that the hotel agreed to credit our credit card the extra 20 euros charged. We’ll see.

Nice quiet hotel.
Nice hotel in quiet street, just off the main street in Lido,, where you will find plenty of shops and restaurants. Room had a fridge and safe, and bigger than most in Venice. Breakfast was good but same everyday. Only thing which was a little strange were the towels - which are cotton bed sheets ?! But they do get you dry and were changed everyday. TV had no English channels.

Great little hotel in a convenient location for the beach, the Vaporetto stops for Venice, shops and restaurants. Room was spacious and the air conditioning was a bonus given us Brits weren’t used to 33 degree heat!! Staff were friendly and spoke good English. Small criticism was that the breakfast buffet wasn’t always replenished , so if we came down later for breakfast there wasn’t much left. Would definitely recommend this hotel though.

Fantastic hotel on Lido. This was my fourth time to Venice and I have tried different hotels each visit but this is the first hotel I will return to for future visits to Venice. The staff is top of the line and location is fantastic. Only complaint would be the pillows are thin. I never talked to the staff about it but I'm sure they would have provided additional pillows had I brought it up.

Villa Cipro Lido
The rooms were OK, mattress very firm. No air conditioning in one of the rooms family members stayed in. For the $25.00 charge, the breakfast should have been better. You can do much better in the local cafe’s. Charge for WiFi, coffee, and the TV didnt work. Location was great however.

Reasonably priced Venice hotel
Great location on Lido, away from the madness of Venice but still within easy reach. We enjoyed the water bus in everyday. Hotel stay was good. Room was basic but comfortable (pillows hard but got used to them eventually). Plenty of food at breakfast and staff always happy to help. Lots of good restaurants in the area, the Gran Viale was really good, reservations needed.

Well situated hotel for the beach and Venice
The hotel is in an excellent position for getting around. It is 5 minutes from where you can get the water taxi to Venice and 5 minutes walk in the other direction takes you to the beach. The rooms were dated, but clean and comfortable. Breakfast though was a big disappointment. We had to ask a couple of times for the coffee to be replenished and when I asked that we have some brown bread and croissants as there was only one croissant left on the tray - we were a party of 5, the first day it was done, but the second day there was no brown bread and when I commented that that wasn't very good, was told 'if it's gone, it's gone'. All in all I probably would recommend the hotel, but if staying again would consider whether buying the breakfast is a good option. We were room only.

Have just returned from a 5 day break, lovely, friendly hotel. The room was a little small and bathroom tiny, it was adequate for our needs after all on a city break the hotel is just a base. Breakfast is basic but plentiful with lots of hot tea and coffee and a variety of fruit juice. The staff extremely helpful and friendly. The hotel is in a great location near to the water buses, getting into Venice really easy. We felt we had the best of both worlds, a lovely beach and exciting city. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

Hotel Cipro
Room 306 was given to us as a double room - but was really a single as there was very little space for 2 people to move and the wardrobe door didn't open properly with the double bed in it. Our children had much more space in their twin room - but weren't prepared to swap!

Hotel service punches way above it's 3 stars.
We received such a wonderful reception and nothing was too much trouble for the lovely hotel staff. The bedroom and bed were very big. This is the best 3* hotel I have ever stayed in and so much better to catch the frequent ferries into San Marco from Lido than to stay in the overpriced, terrible hotels on the main island of Venice. Highly recommend. One more tip - make sure you book your dinner in Lido if you are going to a restaurant on the week-ends as the locals will book out all the good places otherwise and many of the restaurants won't take walk-ins on Friday and Saturday nights, even if they are not full.

Nice simple hotel
The hotel is nice but simple. You can see that it is somewhat outdated, but everything was clean. The location is perfect, because it is located close to the taxi boats to Venice and on the otherside also close to a nice beach. The staff is very friendly and very helpfull. We had a late departurev on Sunday and we could store our lugage in the hotel and we could even use a bathroom to refresh ourselves before we left to catch our flight.

Pleasant Villa Hotel in Good Location
This was our 1st trip to Venice and we chose to stay on Lido after reading reviews; we weren't disappointed. The staff were all excellent; friendly, helpful and pleasant . The vaporetto stop was an easy, flat walk away and the service was frequent and reliable. We bought a 72 hour pass so we could hop on and off whichever lines we chose over that period. continuing past the hotel was a lovely beach area - very quiet at this time of year. A variety of restaurants and bars were just around the corner from the hotel, generally offering better value for money than those in Venice city. Breakfast was 'do it yourself' with hot water, milk, coffee, juices, eggs and a pan of hot water, cheese ham, cereals, fruit , rolls, bread, toaster, butter , jams. This suited us fine. Our room was comfortable, but a bit 'tired'. We requested extra pillows and these were provided straight away. We had two small balconies which were pleasant to sit on with a drink. There was a mini bar in the room with water, soft drinks and beer. The prices were expensive, but between the vaporetto stop and the hotel was a supermarket 'Conads' so we bought water etc in there and cooled them in our mini bar, leaving the original contents untouched. There is access to wifi in the lobby and on the terrace but, unfortunately, not in the bedrooms. There was a mirror in the bathroom and a full- length one in the entrance to the room, but one over the dressing table would have been useful. We would return, though !

VILLA CIPRO STAY AUGUST 2015
Booked a 'family room' for 3 and arrived to find a camp bed in the corner of a pretty small room with an inadequate mattress (too thin for a 12 year old to sleep on) which was a bit disappointing. However, when this was explained we returned from the beach to find a full size mattress had been duly installed. The room was OK overall but really the size is too small for 3 but we managed OK. The room had en-suite which had a very powerful shower and was stocked and cleaned daily as expected (strange flat absorbent towels that worked remarkably well!). The hotel is in a great location off the main street on the Lido (Elisabetta) with very easy access to the beach and ferry (vaparetto and Alilaguna) port within a 5 and 10 minutes saunter and loads of restaurants and shops (inc supermarket) to choose from - Note the restaurants/cafes on the opposite side of the road to the hotel are of much better quality!

Worth for money spent..
I stayed at Villa Cipro for 3 days. Pros 1) Easy to access 2) very calm and silent place 3) Good complimentary breakfast 4) 5 mins walk to boat station 5) Lots of cafes, restaurants, bars and a supermarket nearby. 6) 2 mins walk to beach. 7) Good service and helpful receptionists. Cons 1) Just an average room, not very stylish and jazzy. 2) Wifi was not free and they charged 10 Euros which I never faced in any of the hotels I stayed at Europe.
