Splendid Venice – Starhotels Collezione

This hotel is nice as it's updated and well located, but it's extremely overpriced for what it is. It is extremely touristic, and lacks character in a lot of ways. I stayed here once before and remembered liking it so booked it again but realized the rooms are pretty worn (hardware and knobs hanging off of bath and other parts of the room) and the sheets were incredibly bad - like cardboard. I think for 400/500 EUR a night you can find much more charming hotels in Venice that are not full of tour group clientele.

Friendly, helpful hotel staff

Lovely room in a great location. Friendly staff, nice breakfast - I would stay again.

Pretty hotel and centrally located, but probably wouldn’t stay here again - the bath tub consistently wouldn’t drain, the dinner and drinks were extremely expensive, and the flank of meat in the middle of the restaurant was very off-putting. Hotel staff not knowledgeable about vegetarian options - we asked for a restaurant recommendation and they sent us to a place with dead fish on display that had two vegetarian pasta dishes.

Overall it is a beautiful hotel with a convenient location. The check-in was smooth but one of our rooms had mold in the bathroom but the hotel upgraded our room to one with canal view. The hotel staff was very friendly and attentive. The cleaning staff put our clothes in the bidet while cleaning the bathroom which was quite upsetting. But the manager on duty was quick to action by getting our clothes laundered and offering us a complimentary dinner. We did enjoy our stay besides couple of incidents.
