Russo Palace Hotel Venice

Cheap on everything. Nickel and dimed us on extra room charges, wi-fi charged, and charged us municipal tourist charge on kid under 17, although by law should not have. No gym and the breakfast was cheap. Coffee served via electronic dispenser.

my email, on the day going, asking for transport info for an after midnight arrival was answered immediately and helpfully. This set the tone for a holiday mixing Venice and beach. I thought a hotel on the lagoon would not be as good as on the sea but actually I prefered eating breakfast on the terrace with views of venice across the lagoon. 5 mins to the beach was fine, less than 10 mins to the vaporetto to Venice along the waterfront gave a nice separation from the bustle of the ferry and main street. Our triple room (Martina) was fine if a little small, but would have been a large double. It had with loads of storage and a small but perfect bathroom, fully kitted out. My 19 and 21 year old daughters walked in and straight away checked out the bathroom as great/modern/clean! At 32 degrees the a/c was appreciated! Most of all the staff were both very pleasant at all times and extremely helpful. No question was too difficult to answer/resolve. They enthusiastically did our departure flight check-in on line after midnight! My previous trips to Venice have always stayed in Venice itself. Lido was my compromise to provide my daughters with some beach time as well as satisfying my wish to share my love of Venice with them. The Lido, and Russo Palace provided this perfectly. We did split days, beach and venice, being only 15 mins away by vaporetto. Lido was a nice relief from the August throng of Venice. The clientele were mainly couples or small family groups like ours. I didnt see any young children. The hotel seems to have bikes which we didnt realise before, and if you want to take up the umbrella/sun loungers they have reserved on the beach you should book before you go. That said they were always available on the public beach too.

I really loved this hotel very much....very good location,wonderful breakfast,very clean room,friendly staff,....only One thing must be taken consideration which is free Vi Fi is a MUST for such a fantastic hotel....I highly recommend this hotel to all my friends...

We were placed on the 5th floor (attic) and the ceiling was slanted...we couldn't even stand up or take an appropriate shower!

Booked this for my daughter who stayed one more night than her friends - she said she felt like a princess

Séjour de 5 jours on pris le pass musée et Vaporetto on a pu faire les musées et visiter Murano et Burano sans se presser en fin d'après midi les groupes sont partis!! Manger à Venise est possible pour toutes les Bourses.

Super Hotel. Schöne Zimmer. Sehr, sehr freundliches Personal!! Waren schon öfter in Venedig aber diesmal haben wir ein Hotel am Lido gewählt. Waren alle begeistert. Liegt zwar etwas von der Vaporettostation entfernt aber da ein Bus alle zwanzig Minuten fährt ist das kein Problem gewesen. Sollten wir wieder nach Venedig fahren dann sicher wieder in das Russo Palace!!!!

la chambre 401 au quatrieme etage accessible par l'ascenseur jusqu'au troisieme n'a pas de fenetre,uniquement deux velux qui ne permettent pas de voir l'extérieur,elle est sous les toits et le plafond au dessus du lit comme celui de la baignoire est a moins de 1 metre de hauteure
