Stayed for new year eve. The hotel is in a great location and the staff were fantastic could not do enough for you.
The service was great, the manager was very attentive and helpful.
Old and outdated,
Concierges friendly and helpful. Some excess furniture in room. Restaurant attached to property very good. Windows looked out on the 'bacino' - excellent
Excellent location
Lovely hotel in a great area
Small hotel in a convenient area, close to St. Marks Square.The airport boat dropped off right outside. Only one small negative. In the room the hanging rail was so high up, being small people we could not reach it so had to hang our clothes on the coat rack by the door! Breakfast was good. Fruit, yoghurts, croissants, meat, cheese and boiled eggs, very sufficient to keep you going throughout the day
Nice place and fare price. Beautiful views of lagoon.Easy walk to St Marcus square
Great location by the water taxi stop, older hotel but in good shape, no elevator so if you are the upper floors you get some exercise
Great location, Hard Bed
The view from our room was amazing. You are lining a busy part of Venice so it is a little loud until after 21pm. You are staying in an old hotel so everything in the room was old, but we had a bathroom, bed, and privacy. We were good. The bed was a little hard, so it was not a very comfortable sleep. The placement of the hotel is right next to the boat taxis and boat bus, so the stay was worth it. Great location.
Good staff
Had a wonderful stay.
Not as photos shown on site. Staff unhelpful. Breakfast not Buffett style so no choices. Only one thin sheet in bed and one duvet for twin beds!! When requested another duvet told not tonight too busy have to wait until morning!
Staff very helpful. Good location. Great breakfast. The only problems, very small TV and 3 flights of stairs to get to the room.
Lovely stay, the staff made us feel very welcome and safe.
The staff was amazing, the place was spacious and quiet. Perfect location close to water bus, was awesome. We stayed here three days. Was in perfect location to walk anywhere. Great food and drinks.
The hotel has a great location, but the rooms are small and very dated. The bath room had been updated, but small. This building does not have an elevator, so be prepared to walked up. We had a 4th floor room. The site photos show ocean view, but there was not an option to select ocean or city view, so we were disappointed on getting a city view room upon arrival at an ocean view price. Overall, not what we were exspecting for the price, but I would call this a standard older european hotel. Thanks
Beautiful views from lagoon on third floor! Great location for water taxi, walk to San Marco Square!!!
Nice people helpful Great location right next to San Marco Square
We had a great stay! Perfect place in Venice. Fantastic location.
Wonderful stay in Venice
Staying at Pensione Wildner was a great experience, from friendly staff to easy transportation options. The room was spacious and pretty, and the amenities were perfect for our short stay. One thing we were surprised by was the high cost of laundry services as costs per item were not specified beforehand and the hotel couldn’t provide an estimate for us. Otherwise wonderful stay and highly recommended for anyone looking for a great spot in Venice. The free breakfast was a great bonus!
Perfect location and most welcoming
They did everything to make our stay the best it could be. We are so glad we booked this hotel! It felt like we were staying at a friends house. I couldn’t give anything less than five stars
Great location and very clean
Hotel was great and in the center of everything. Just keep in mind, no elevator in the building
駅からも空港からも抜群のアクセス ブラーノやムラーノ、その他の場所に行く上で、主要観光スポットにいく上でも超便利 海側の部屋の眺めも(工事用品置き場がちょっと気になるけど)素晴らしい 朝食はそれなり インテリアは写真の通り スタッフも親切でヴェネチア滞在を楽しめました
Beware no elevator
Location- great! Restaurant below- great. Value- great. Shower- amazing water pressure. Bed was really uncomfortable and there is no elevator- so lugging a suitcase 4 flights up was awful.
Amazing hotel with wonderful staff! Hotel is located right beside the water bus station and around the corner from St. Mark’s Basilica. It is perfectly central but also quiet. Breakfast on the restaurant terrace is amazing. If I ever return to Venice I will absolutely stay at Pensione Wildner again!
The staff was awesome! Although the room felt a bit outdated it did have an Italian vintage feel to it and it felt like I was in an old movie set. It was nice. The hotel is in a prime location and walkable to attractions and just steps away from the water taxi. The bed a bit hard for my liking but i enjoyed it. I was able to enjoy breakfast on my last morning and it was good which included 1 hard boiled egg, bread basket, fruit salad, cheese, salami, ham, orange juice and cappuccino. I would definitely stay here again!
Loved! Wonderful experience. Recommend!
We loved our stay at Pensione Wildner. The location was amazing. I loved that it was right off of a main stop on the Vaporetto and there were no bridges to have to climb. The staff was wonderful and extremely helpful. Our room was small but comfortable. Our reservation included breakfast and I highly recommend opting for that. It was a simple yet fresh and delicious breakfast and a wonderful start to our day. I highly recommend. We will definitely stay here again. The only downside was there was no elevator the staff helped us so it was fine.
Terrific place to stay in Venice. Michel at the front desk was awesome and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great stay.
This hotel and it staff are great! Breakfast was very good! Centered in the middle of everything. We will definitely stay again when in Venice.
The rooms are somewhat cramped and tired. Lobby as well. Staff were friendly and helpful. Very convenient for transportation and restaurants.
Wonderful
Great location for transport via vaporetto (water bus) or the Alilaguna airport water bus, all stops are right out the front of the hotel. Alilaguna airport water bus can be taken from/to Venice Marco Polo airport.
We stayed here for 3 nights, the hotel was very clean with a spacious room. I chose this hotel for location over the lagoon but didn’t appreciate how close and accessible it was for getting around Venice. Breakfast was continental and plentiful. The restaurant served a gorgeous selection of food, with friendly staff on hand.
Our vacation
The hotel is outdated and very dirty. They need to take some of the money they are making off of tourist and invest it back into upgrades.
Very nice property. Receptionists were all very nice and helpful. Only thing was we couldn’t get any different items in breakfast even though we ordered but we ate good food regardless. When you take the water bus, stop at San Zacharia B stop and you are right in front of the hotel. Overall a great place that I would highly recommend and go back to!!
Fantastic location. Michele at reception gave outstanding customer service. Friendly staff and the food and wine was amazing.
Staff were very friendly and attentive. Our room was very small, needs updating but overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Would stay there again because of the staff.
The hotel was very old Italia. But that is one of the things I loved about it. The shower was a bit small. There is no lift/elevator for guest. So if you can't do stairs this is not the hotel for you.
Even though this property is far away from the train station, it is right on the grand canal and water taxis, both private and public , are very close by. It was also nice having breakfast every morning.
We had a wonderful time in Venice and highly recommend staying at the hotel Pensione Wildner. The views from our bedroom windows were stunning, could not have asked for more. The rooms were clean and spacious enough to be very comfortable and decor had all the essence of a venetian hotel. The bed was very comfortable with crisp white sheets and comfy pillows. Plenty of storage, a safe for valuables and rooms were daily cleaned and replaced with fresh towels and toiletries. The two ladies who cleaned our rooms were really helpful and friendly, it was a real pleasure, thank you. We were greeted at the desk by Michele, a wonderful man who was so lovely,friendly with a great sense of humour who made us feel right at home, felt like we were visiting friends. There is staff 24 hours on duty, and his fellow colleagues were also friendly and helpful if you needed anything. The breakfast was included and was plenty enough for the two of us, fresh rolls, croissants, egg, meats, cheese, juice and coffee. Delicious. This was a long overdue holiday and we wanted to celebrate our wedding anniversary in Venice. What a perfect choice we made, could not have asked for more. All we can say is thank you so very much to Michele and all his fellow staff who were so courteous, friendly and worked so hard to make our stay such an enjoyable and most pleasant experience. Thank you everyone, we will definitely stay there again. Kindest regards and best wishes Michele. From Mr and Mrs Peteuil.
We were warmly welcomed and were given a lot of very helpful information. The hotel was very clean and right around the corner from various points of interest. We felt very safe walking around the streets and the food everywhere went was delicious.
Très ancien .( il y a encore du pré fini dans corridor et tapisserie jaune velours dans chambre ) Aurait avantage à être rénové Lits moyens
View was wonderful, but I missed the fact it didn’t have an elevator and I use a cane and can not feel my right side from the waist down so stairs are very difficult
I’m the middle of everything. Very convenient
Floors were dirty, fans didn’t work, rooms smelt, open windows and then you get mosquitoes and smell from the kitchens around the complex. Front desk staff was friendly, breakfast was delicious only plus
We had a great view from the 3rd floor. Hotel is cute and in a great location. Downside, stairs and mosquitoes. Too hot when window is closed, too many mosquitoes when it's open. Front desk person was helpful with a good sense of humor. Breakfast was pretty good and big enough. Only instant coffee in the room and no fridge. Kettle and some tea included. Room can use some updates, especially bathroom, but view makes up fo it. Hotel is in front of water bus stop, assuming there is no strike, check it out before going. Overall we recommend this place.
A most enjoyable stay - the staff went above and beyond to make the stay memorable. Food excellent.
Can’t beet the location
Excellent location 5 minute walk from Saint Marks Square. Room is very Venetian and larger than expected, service and breakfast were very good. Down fall no elevator, we had to carry our luggage up 4 very steep flights of stairs. But worth it over all.
We love the staff. They were so helpful and made our stay great. The restaurant was awesome. Everything we ate there was so good. They view from our room was beautiful.
10/10
Excellent location. Very central to all you need and tours etc. Stunning view over the lagoon from bedroom window. Breakfast was delicious and sets you on the way for your day. Michele was very welcoming and so helpful throughout our stay when we asked for recommendations and transport to and from airport.
The hotel's prime location, just a two-minute walk from St. Mark's Square and a 15-minute walk from the Rialto Bridge, makes it an ideal base for exploring Venice. Additionally, the water bus station, providing easy access to the airport, Burano, and Murano islands, is conveniently located just steps away from the hotel. While the breakfast may be simple, it efficiently serves its purpose. Moreover, the staff members are exceptionally friendly and eager to assist guests, enhancing the overall experience.
No ac
This hotel was conveniently situated on the waterfront, had a certain old-world charm and was comfortable - given the reasonable price we were quite happy with it and just thrilled to be in Venice! However, the room did lack a fridge - as it was winter we simply used the window sill to keep our milk cool, but this might be more of an issue in summer. It also doesn’t have an elevator and we were on the fourth floor (!), which we didn’t mind (although we were extra mindful to make sure we didn’t forget anything when we headed out for the day!), but it could be an issue for anyone with mobility issues. The staff/management were very friendly and helpful and we discovered on the last night that the restaurant was wonderful! It was closed when we first arrived or we would have eaten there more often.
Easy to get to.
The hotel was very good. We were told we could get first floor room. They were able to accommodate first floor the 2nd night of our stay. No lift, but they helped us with our bags which was greatly appreciated. Friendly staff and good breakfast. EASY to get to!!!
The only inconvenience is no have elevators other than that everything was perfect.
A traditional hotel, lovely staff, right above the San Zaccaria vaporetto/alilaguna stops. Very clean and comfortable, great breakfast (included), traditional feel to the decor. Bathroom small but luxurious.
Great location to catch a watertaxi, restaurants and shops. Close to all main attractions.
Great place to stay if you are visiting
Perfect location, amazing staff.
Our first time to Venice from Scotland and our experience was just amazing, mostly down to Pensione Wildner and their fantastic staff, clean room and fabulous breakfast. Michele the Hotel Manager kept in contact with me from the moment of booking and arranged an airport transfer for us at 11:30pm. Our room was very clean and comfortable and the bathroom was beautiful with a fabulous shower. The hotel location is the best around, within walking distance to all the tourist areas and all docks for the ferry’s to travel further if required. We will return and will stay here again, wouldn’t go anywhere else. Excellent service all round. Thank you for having us. We even got engaged not far from the hotel on our last day.
The correspondence with the hotel was timely and very informative. The ferry shuttle from the airport drops off directly in front of the hotel Which was awesome. It is located near all major attractions and Venice is walkable. Bring appropriate shoes. The breakfast that is included is an easy start to the day and very good! The staff is friendly and knowledgeable about the surround area. It’s a definite feeling of stepping back in Venetian time! Absolutely loved our time here in the hotel. What a gem!
We got a room with free breakfast and we ate it only one of the two days we were there. It was nice but simple. Little meat/cheese plate with breads and a boiled egg. They also brought a coffee and orange juice. The staff was very nice. The location is very close to St. Mark's Square and convenient to the water taxi locations. Our room was nice but a bit dated. We had issues with the shower not draining fast enough. Also it has no elevator, but that was not an issue for us. We enjoyed our stay at this hotel.
Great location, rooms aren't modern but do have character
My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Pensione Wildner. The hosts were great and staff were friendly. Location is central and close to St Mark’s square, tourist sites and markets, but most importantly the water bus stop to the airport is right in front. We were really fortunate to book a room on the top 4th floor with a full lagoon view which was simply breathtaking and amazing. The room was clean, met our needs and was upkept daily by their staff. Even though there are no lifts, the view makes it worth the while taking the stairs.
It’s older but clean, great food and drink. Owners are so friendly. Excellent location.
It was fine
Great location, a bit dated interiors. No elevator.
Very good hotel. The room was clean. The staff at the reception were so sweet and helpful.
Friendly staff and convenient location.
Staff was very friendly and helpful. Old world style and decor was beautiful. Updated enough modern traveler, but kept tje atmosphere
Friendly staff, extremely helpful. Wonderful views of the Grand canal while having breakfast and a stones throw from St Marcs Square. Would definitely stay there again.
all is good!
Great location
Little Gem in Venice
2nd stay here and again did not disappoint. Fantastic location, good breakfast, friendly staff. Spotless new bathrooms, comfortable bed. If we go again, we will always stay here.
Great location, beautiful water view; excellent breakfast; staff was great & very friendly. Only one drawback - no elevator which made carrying luggage up 4 flights of stairs to our room a pain. Would stay there again.
We loved: perfect AC, most comfortable beds, good window insulation - can’t here the bust street infront. best water pressure in the shower, good Wi-Fi, helpful staff, incredible view and the best location- right across from the taxi boats and regular route boats next to the quieter part of Venice-Castello which is incredible for rush tourist hours for food and drinks. BUT! be aware! NO ELEVATOR/ so be prepared to walk up and down. We got help with the luggage but luckily we were on the 2nd floor. I can’t imagine walking up and down the 4th floor during a day when u want to go back to the room. Our room was incredibly outdated/ like our bathroom was a bit scary and some parts of the room were warn out. So if you catch this hotel with a good price-,it’s the place to stay. I payed 250€ by booking in advance- and I defiantly overplayed but for 170$- the price on the day of arrival- it would be perfect
Great hotel in the perfect location
We had an incredible stay at the Pensione Wildner. The staff was helpful and made us feel at home. They made wonderful recommendations about places to see and eat while in Venice. We would highly recommend the location for anyone travelling to Venice!
Fantastic hotel, fantastic location and fantastic staff.
The decor could use an update, especially to accommodate electronic devices. However the location is incredible and the staff couldn't be more friendly or helpful!
The staff was excellent especially the young man at the front desk. He helped me with my luggage, booking a water taxi, deciding what time I should leave for an early flight and encouraged me to eat breakfast before I left. The location is excellent. The water bus and water taxi is literally a few steps away. 2 bridges from the Doges Palace and shopping everywhere. My room was a little dark but I made due. Clean clean clean and breakfast was delicious!!
The manager Michele was very helpful and caring as was his staff. Our trip to Venice was unique and memorable.
Staff and location are both excellent, but hotel is dated and badly needs an upgrade and a refreshing.
Great location, with good breakfast. Friendly staff.
This hotel was awesome. Of course the rooms were small. But if you want a convenient location in the heart of Venice this is the place. The room we had was in the back of the hotel on the 3rd floor. It was quiet. I would imagine the the rooms in the front of the hotel facing the Grand Canal would be less quiet. The staff was friendly and helpful. I would stay here again if I'm ever lucky enough to visit this amazing city.
👍
Wonderful location and very nice staff. Air blows but not very cool. Rooms have an odd smell but you do get used to it once you’re inside.
This hotel is in a great location in front of the lagoon. It is easy to walk around Venice or take vaporetti nearby. Breakfast was good, continental style. Also had a delicious dinner at the hotel's restaurant. Michele at the reception desk was very helpful in arranging transportation on arrival and departure. The hotel itself is a little dated although the room was spacious, and the only English language channel on TV is CNN.
The location is amazing! Water front and 5 minutes walk to San Marcos Square Staff is Amazing! Breakfasts delcious and with a great view The building it self it’s old, of course. No elevator. But it is well kept and clean and AC works fine. The bathrooms could use a little renovation. Great stay over-all
Stunning view and felt like a true old Venetian hotel. Wonderful location. Bummed about there being no lift butit added to the experience for sure!
I did not like this property, because it was very old and not updated, no elevator with narrow stairs, but it was close to the tourist area, beautiful view, and very nice manager.
Excellent !
Everything was amazing ! All staff members are calm, collective and happy to assist you. Michael really made us feel welcome with his warm hospitality and charming charisma. The property is just 4 minutes away from the Doges Palace. The rooms are cozy and provide adequate space for couples. My only pro tip is that they don’t have elevators so either pack light or be ready to get a work out. Other than that I highly recommend this hotel for your trip to Venice.
Great location
Location, location, location
Was told on arrival that I had the best room with the best view of the lagoon. Man on the desk was not lying. I’d go back for the view. Also the airport drop off was right outside!
Pros: unbeatable location (smack in front of the vaporetto landing, and 2 minutes’ walk to Piazza San Marco); amazing view; lovely staff; good breakfast and dinner; comfortable beds; good water pressure in the shower; shower door that closed completely; shutters that closed to darken the room properly; heating A/C that could be turned off. Cons: the rooms and bathrooms are a bit dated, in the Venetian style, but they have a certain charm to them, creaky wooden floors and all; no lift. This wasn’t a problem for us, but if stairs are an issue, you might request a lower floor room. All things considered, this is a lovely little pensione. We plan to return.
Just had a very pleasant stay here, I can thoroughly recommend it. Staff were very friendly and efficient, the room was immaculate, and the food and wine in the restaurant was excellent. Would happily return.
Nice hotel in Venice
Stayed at the Pensione for a few nights this past month. Good location, staff was very friendly, restaurant was very good, and room was clean. Walls were a little bit thin in terms of noise, but otherwise an enjoyable stay.
The hotel is in a great location.
