La Forcola Hotel Venice Guest Reviews
This hotel is fine for a few nights in Venice. It's clean and comfortable with complimentary breakfast. The wi-fi costs money, but it's much less than in the internet cafes. The room we were in was small, but they have larger ones i'm sure you can request. It's about a 10-15 minute walk to the train station (over two bridges), and about the same to the rialto bridge-add another ten for St. Mark's square. If you're hauling bags from the train station, being in this location instead of all the way down by St. Mark's is nice since going over the bridges can be tricky. This hotel worked well for us, but note that three stars in europe is not the same as three stars in america. No extras like fitness or swimming, and the TVs and bathrooms are typically very small, and bedding isn't as nice. Overall, it was a fine place to stay but nothing special (though our room did look out on the water).

Difficult to find as we arrived late in evening. Arrived to pad lock and chain to front door and night porter asleep on the couch. He was extremely annoyed we woke him and extremely unhelpful. Rooms very basic but clean

bed was very uncomfortable, no glass or curtain around shower which caused c caused bathroom to get very wet. Breakfast was average compared to other hotels we stayed in for around the same price.

Good position (10 minutes by walk from the train station). Small room and clean but not in very good condition (price to high for the service offered). The hotel infact was closing the week after our departure to make some renovation. Breakfast with marmelade, bread, tea coffe, orange juice, chocolate, hot croissant, fruit tart etc.. Very copious. Our room was very quite even if the hotel is on a noisy road.
