Abbazia De Luxe

The room, the view

Great location and amazingly easy from train station. Lovely little lobby and breakfast room. Nice people. Canal view room is wonderful. Price went up too much for me this year, so took a small back room. A bit dark and the noise from back alley woke me in the morning. If you can afford the canal view room, by all means take it & see Venice in comfort and ease.

Abbazia De Luxe is a boutique B&B annexed to (and managed by) the Hotel Abbazia, which is just about 100 meters away on the same block. Therefore, all the amenities of the hotel is available to the guests and this is where you get the breakfast too. Abbazia De Luxe is very close by the train station (and close by to the Port of Venice). Hence, if you plan to arrive by train, you can avoid the hassle of carrying your bags or hiring a porter! In short, this is a clean, well managed and perfectly located boutique B&B which I highly recommend.

The entrance to the Abbazia De Luxe is thru a narrow staircase which is rather steep. After all, this is a renovated old building and there is not much one can do about the layout. Also, the walls (new dry walls that separate the rooms) are a bit thin and lets the noise get in and out. If your fellow guests are understanding and quiet you won't have any problems but just know.

The staff was very accommodating. Great breakfast and great location. Great hotel
