Hotel Excelsior

Stunning Motel with beautiful large rooms and amazing pool area. It’s like a palace… Amazing large gym area, Staff are super friendly, all that you would expect from a 5 star Motel. Only thing that stops it from a perfect ⁵⁄₅ is the cost to eat there is ridiculous. Everything seems twice the price or more than other places. We had to leave the motel to eat in the end as it was just too expensive. I’d defiantly stay there again but I’d be prepared to travel to eat at meal times.

A true five-​star hotel. It is amazing how well the staff here accommodates all travelers. We were here with our family for my daughter’s University honors trip. My wife and I celebrated our 30^th wedding anniversary here. We had a room with a balcony that was exquisite. In all its glory the Excelsior was able to refurbish the hotel to its prime celebrity status it once held for numerous decades. During our stay the grounds were being spruced up the for the summer season. The beachfront was unbelievably well manicured it had seashells beyond belief for one to take for souvenirs. The menu for breakfast was extensive, with fresh sweet fruit, cereals Bread, cheese, ham, sausage, bacon and the staff was very attentive and we were glad we spent our first four days in Lido versus Venice. My father once lived here 40 years ago and the people and vendors were very kind and sincere. If you want to come to Venice and you’re not on a sea cruise come Lido’s Excelsior has a water taxi at no charge to take you back-​and-​forth to St. Mark’s Square. Every meal from breakfast lunch and dinner was well prepared was excellent tasted fantastic the service was superior, Excelsior Hotel her and it’s five-​star I can’t talk enough about it. If you are going to spend in Italy make sure you spend the last few days on the island of Lido. Get a room with a balcony overlooking the Adriatic Sea the views at sunrise are wonderful and at night although there are mosquitoes you can still open your balcony French doors and hear the ocean crashing on the sandy beaches and just imagine the rest of the world melting away.

Romantic, beautiful hotel. Good breakfast too!
Very accommodating to children. Lots of seashells to be found on the hotel beach. Great place to watch the sunset…

Eine in die Jahre gekommene Lady wird wieder restauriert!
Mit viel Aufwand und Liebe zum Detail wird das Hotel hoffentlich wieder zu dem Stil gebracht, den es einmal hatte.
Die Preise sind etwas überhöht im Vergleich zum Service — oder anders herum im Service ist noch viel «Room for Improvement» !
WLAN ist kostenlos aber sehr instabil — muss es öfter versuchen oder IP erneuern!
Die Zimmer und der Flair sind traumhaft!
Das Frühstücksbuffet ist sehr abwechslungsreich. Leider wissen einige Gäste nicht, dass sie in einen 5* Hotel sind und schlappen herum wie beim letzten Urlaub auf Malle.
Toll und sehr praktisch ist der exklusive Shuttle mit dem hoteleigenen Boot vom San Marco Platz.
Der Cappo auf der Terrasse für 9, — und Aperol Spritz für 18 € sind am oberen Limit.

This hotel is STUNNING… however, if you are traveling to Lido from Venice for the day — stay away from their buffet. It’s mediocre at best — especially for the approx. $ 100 per adult or child that you pay for… Even for Venice standards, this is a joke!
By all means, do check out the hotel — it is majestic.

This old lady can still sing!
