A lovely 4-night stay at this hotel. We didn’t have any problems with the key codes for the building and the room as they were sent through to us in advance. The room we had was large, comfortable and freshened up daily. The location is great - close to the train station and near lots of great shops, restaurants and cafes. The only negative is that the walls of the hotel are really thin, and so you can hear people coughing and walking around in the rooms nearby. We didn’t find this too much of an issue, however, but something to bear in mind if you’re looking for a really quiet hotel!

Worst hotel in years.
I travel 60-70 nights a year. This was probably the most unorganized and unhelpful hotel I've ever stayed at. As others have pointed out- they have no front desk, so they send two links- one is for checking in online, the second is to pay the city taxes. The first link they sent was obviously broken, and they didn't respond to a request for a correct link for almost 3 weeks. I finally had to call FIVE times the day before check-in- their Whatsapp wasn't working, they weren't receiving emails, they weren't receiving text messages. They didn't respond to hotel.com messages either. Finally hotels.com called their number and got them to send an actual email with the correct links after I told them I would cancel the reservation if it wasn't received (remember, no way to enter the hotel!). Upon arrival- their advertised air conditioning didn't work, and the thermostat was dead. I called their support line- the lady on the phone, who couldn't have been more unhelpful, demanded proof that the thermostat was dead, and asked for a video. So I sent a video- she was supposed to call me back, and did not. At that point I wrote it off. Do NOT stay here under any circumstances if you wish to actually enjoy your stay in Venice.

If I could give a 0 I would. They kept sending broken links to upload documents. It took forever to get that sorted with them, but eventually we did. Then come check in time and they never sent the codes to get into the room. I had to find another hotel at 10pm. I texted and called them at 7pm (was supposed to have the code at 3) and no response. The next morning they casually text, sorry we forgot to send you the codes. They wanted me to then come at that moment. I said no. Completely unprofessional to leave people stranded because they forgot. Expedia eventually did a refund. The relocation service on Expedia though was not good. The only thing they could come up with was a hotel 45 minutes outside of Venice. I did a search at 10pm and made one phone call and had a new hotel. Not sure why Expedia had such a hard time.

We really appreciated where it was located, within walking distance to lots of things, and easy access to restaurants, bars and coffee shops. Having a keyless entry was great - no keys to think about. It was very quiet at night, making up for some bad sleeps that we’d had in Florence!

Enjoyed our stay at Grofoni hotel. Our room was a good size and very clean. The location was really good too, about a 10 minute walk from the train station and 5 minutes from Sa Toma. It was a quiet area, very local and not too ‘touristy’, with a couple of restaurants outside and some really good trattorias close by. We heard no noise from the restaurants outside. We could hear the people above us walking around but it wasn’t anything we couldn’t handle. If this might bother you, just bring earplugs. The room had air conditioning too but we didn’t need it as the weather was quite cool. There is no lift in the building so bare it in mind if you’re less able as you’ll need to carry luggage up the stairs. The hotel doesn’t have a check in desk so everything is done via links send in email. I had issues with this on hotels.com as they seemed to redact the emails that were sent from the hotel. I called them a couple of times before we were due to arrive and had to pay the city tax in a link, and then check in with a Google form. You then get codes to enter the building and your room via WhatsApp message the day before your arrival. I’d suggest calling them if you don’t receive your check in links. Our only improvement would be there were no tea/coffee making facilities in the room. There were items in the downstairs communal area but we weren’t sure if we were allowed to use them! Other than that we’d stay again when we visit Venice again. It was a really affordable base.

The hotel was excellent, easy to check-in with codes provided in advance via WhatsApp. The service was amazing. The staff in the morning during breakfast, Teressa, had have provided excellent service, met our requirements for the food even for next day when we had to check out early in the morning. Highly recommended for a family or anyone to enjoy Venice island. It was very easy to walkable to major attractions.

Once we booked Grifoni, I have to be honest, I saw some reviews and was upset that I couldn’t cancel my reservation. I expected the worst and was anxious leading up to our stay. However, there is absolutely nothing wrong with this boutique hotel. We had no problems finding it. I used Apple Maps because Google Maps gave directions over nonexistent bridges. Apple Maps provided two routes to get there from either the Ferrovia (train station) or Piazzale Roma (bus terminal). I was under the impression that finding the hotel would be a huge task, as the reviews had suggested. To my surprise, we arrived after only a 12-minute walk with no problems. Keep in mind, my young children, husband, and I had five pieces of luggage to haul in the incredible heat. The room was spacious and perfect for my family of four. The bathroom and shower were also excellent and larger than many of the bathrooms in 4-star hotels we stayed at in Italy. We didn’t opt for the included breakfast since there are plenty of cafes nearby that offer breakfast options. Let’s face it, as another review mentioned, you don’t go to Venice to spend time in your hotel. The location is great, just a 15-minute walk to the Ponte Rialto and St. Mark’s Square. This boutique hotel is exactly what it claims to be: a quaint, accommodating place that serves its purpose.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Grifoni Hotel. The best part of the stay was interacting with Teresa in the mornings and enjoying her breakfast and amazing cappuccinos to start the day! She’s very hospitable and extremely helpful for tourists who aren’t familiar with the area. I would suggest packing lightly because Venice doesn’t have roadways that vehicles can travel on, the walk from where you’ll be dropped off to the hotel is a little under 3/4 of a mile and includes several sets of stairs and small bridges that need to be crossed. I would highly recommend the location as it is in the center of the city yet not on the main canal so you avoid some noise from the lively city. Enjoy!
