Hotel Cavalletto e Doge Orseolo

The location is literally steps from st marks square which was why I chose the hotel everything else was poor. 4 star hotel? I give it a 2 because I’m generous. Tiny old room, tiny hard bed, no blackout window frames, flat pillows, poor breakfast buffet and unfriendly staff. Honestly, I’m not that hard to please, this place just sucks. My last visit I stayed at the bonvecchiati hotel which was very close and infinitely better. I will go there again, never here!

Its Venice, so it being expensive and cramped is a given, but the hotel was a bit tired and some of the service features lazy. (there was a shoe mark on the ceiling, which whilst not affecting the stay, speaks volumes in other ways).

Room was too small. Photos on Hotels.com are not accurate. This was our 25th wedding anniversary. Very disappointed in the room. The only comparison to describe the room is "cruise ship"

Polite and efficient service. Helpful with directions and recommendations. Clean and comfortable room and facilities. Friendly bar tender. Fantastic breakfast. Great location.

Breakfast room too small for size of hotel .. lengthy queues and food running out and not replaced, lack of cutlery, cups and plates .. very frustrating, staff gave up
