Hilton Molino Stucky Venice

The hotel was a magnificent behemoth. The shuttle boat to the centre of Venice took less than 10 minutes. The breakfast (American) at €27 was fantastic. We had ours in the room as we wanted to watch the marine traffic pass by. We managed TWO meals from the breakfast ( we saved our yogurt and fruit plates in the room fridge) . The hotel facilities are very comprehensive and the staff was courteous and professional. Our room was an Executive King with view. The Alilaguna water bus will take you to and from the hotel's front door. Check the times to ensure it is available for a late arrival. Would I return? Emphatically yes!

Room was well furnished and the room facilities were excellent. Bathroom was clean and very good quality. Excellent daily cleaning of the room meant we walked into the feeling of a new room each evening. The view was excellent and the air conditioning kept the room at a good temperature for the heat. Breakfast is a buffet but a 5 star buffet, large range on offer, you would struggle to not find something you like. Lots of food being replaced fresh so you are getting as fresh a buffet can be. Good time frame for breakfast and the helpful room welcome guide gave good suggestions for when to go to avoid busy times. The same selection everyday but it was a wide range and you felt full and ready for the day of exploring. Location is great as the view from the rooftop pool is always stunning looking over the whole of Venice. Location is good for water taxi and airport transfer, it is well connected by public transport with its own shuttle to San Marco and in the evening across the canal as well. The waterbus airport route also stops there, but if you want the hotel can book you a water taxi to anywhere in Venice and the Airport. Good to know that their watertaxi company takes all major cards as some water taxi's do not. Concierge was informative and helpful, great information for where to get waterbuses and to book taxi's. We didn't use them for much more but I could see they were giving a lot of helpful advice to other hotel guests as well. You don't feel that you are asking too much of them and the level of English is excellent. Does make me want to learn Italian though as a mark of respect but they are happy to speak in English and almost default to it at this hotel, given the number of American's that were there. Overall, a wonderful stay and ideally the best hotel as it has the pool for you to use in the hottest parts of the day and the view easily makes it the best hotel pool in Venice.

Apart from the pool staff, everybody was nice, freindly and helpful. The room very comfortable and clean.

The rooftop pool and bar - make sure to book on the day to get a slot! The regular water taxi/shuttle - it ran till late as well. The bed was really comfy and we had a nice view of the water from our hotel room. The bedroom was nice and cool. The staff were friendly. Everything was really clean! They had gluten-free options for breakfast and dinner.

I loved the historical building this hotel had a lot. The area was calm and felt very peacefully beautiful every single time we returned to the hotel after crowded Venice. The shuttle service was very convenient but at times it would come every hour and not every 30 minutes which could problematic if one misses it. the front desk was pretty friendly and helpful. the concierge was amazing and helped a lot especially Roberto. Roberto was so kind, caring and professional.
