Hotel Principe - Venice, Italy 

"A hidden gem"
Posted: Mon, Nov 23 2009
This hotel is only about 500 feet from the train station, making it easy to get to. On the outside, it is modest and easy to simply walk past as it sits amongst the many look alike touristy souvenir stands. Once inside, it becomes another story that one can best liken to the scene where Dorothy opens the door of her house to discover she's in munchkin land. It is a large, beautiful, immaculate old world style hotel with a dedicated and concerned staff that offers first rate service (thank you Alessandro) The rooms were small, but squeaky clean and tastefully decorated. The bathrooms were surprisingly quite large, plush and very well done in marble, chrome and ceramics. The breakfast room is an excersize in elegance; the mix of hot and cold selections were excellent and a great way to start your day. Just outside is large terrace, with an amazing view of grand canal, perfect for a liesurely meal or that late night bellini. I would go back in a heartbeat.

the hotel is nice and the room was clean.great location. it's a little too expensive for 4 star hotel, as in our home country for same price you get MUCH more. but apart from this we enjoyed our stay.

Breakfast is good. Bathroom is hugh. The atmosphere in early morning is nice. Just the interior of corridor and the room-door need some works. The location is very convenient, just 100 m. next to the train station.

Das Principe ist ein wenig abgewohnt (abgetretene Teppichböden) mit leicht morbidem Charakter, kleinen Zimmern, aber in verkehrsgünstiger Lage und mit bemühten Angestellten. Während meines Aufenthaltes gab es wenig Einzel-, sondern überwiegend Gruppenreisende.

Great location close to the railway station and Piazzale Roma. Good local facilites for eating and drinking and better prices than St Mark's area! Nice, comfortable hotel with helpful staff. Breakfast is amongst the best and included in the price. We would definitely stay there again.
