Location: 5Value: 4.5
This Hotel surpases all expectations in service, beauty, food and english language. You will love it. Ask for a room with a canal view, or a suite. You will not be dissapointed.
This hotel has a beautiful lobby, and a beautiful place on the roof to dine, and that is it. What an uncooperative staff, air conditioner barely worked, not outstanding for the money paid for this place--go someplace else. We just returned and would never consider it again. Venice smells and is overcrowded and Italilans are simply RUDE---glad to be home

We have stayed at the Danieli twice. We chose the Danieli for our wedding and for a few reasons. Firstly, the location is excellent. Secondly, it has a beautiful entrance hall and lobby. Thirdly, the food in the restaurant was good and they were catering our reception in a private dining room. The hotel was the setting we wanted. We are used to staying in 5 star hotels in Italy and they can either be newly refurbished or old and shabby. They are mostly old and shabby and the rooms at the Danieli are definitely in that category, but that is just the way it is in Italy. We are also used to Italian service which is usually not fantastic, but since we had not had any major problems there previously, all the other pros outweighed that. We had a fantastic wedding and many of our guests who stayed there also had a good experience. Breakfast is very expensive, but there are plenty of cafes in the area instead. Service was fine and the food was excellent. We will return for a future anniversary.
Hotel Danieli deserves its reputation as the top hotel in Venice. It is especially suitable for those who enjoy an elegant and prestigious ambience and who appreciate culture, history and antique furnitures and fittings.
The hotel is in a great location, right next to St. Mark’s Square and opposite the piers. It cannot be more convenient as it even has its own private landing for boats.
The roof-top Restaurant Terrazza Danieli offers excellent Italian cuisine, good service and a fantastic view of Venice. Dining there is a memorable experience.
The Danieli is no doubt one of the best hotels in the world and is strongly recommended to anyone who wants the best in Venice.
