Top 5-Star Hotels in Venice-Lido

Very Middle Eastern style hotel. Newly renovated, probably due to the relationship of the Venice Film Festival, the overall price is on the high side. I arrived at the store at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and I didn't check in until 5 o'clock. Started taking me to a very small room with a door to the connecting room. There is no balcony, which is completely different from the hotel pictures provided by Ctrip. I specially chose a large room, but when I went to the front desk of the hotel, they said they didn't know where I booked it from. I showed them pictures from Ctrip, and they said it was a sea view room, and the price was different. I communicated with the hotel myself, and the hotel coordinated and changed my room with a very arrogant attitude. Lido has a good view of the Adriatic Sea, and the beach is full of shells, so you can't go into the sea. So be it, will not live again. Ctrip's agent is too misleading, and the picture is not the actual room type picture of the hotel at all. Ctrip did not reply any follow-up. A Coke costs 10 Euros and a Tramisu 15 Euros. After check-in, you can take the hotel's boat to San Marco for free for 20 minutes, but you can't bring luggage. You can only call a taxi for 100 Euros with luggage.

When we arrived we were given a tour of the hotel. It was refurbished in recent years, beautiful salons and terraces to dine and chill out on. Very easy to imagine times past and visitors from Venice and further afield being there. The bedrooms in contrast are light, spacious and contemporary in design. The pool area is a haven and perfect for an hour or so after a day in Venice. We had a rainy day during our stay and opted for a massage in the spa and dinner in the hotel. Everything was excellent but what really makes this hotel a success are the staff. They, more than anything, are responsible for the lovely atmosphere that permeates throughout. The bar closed at 11 pm which made a nightcap after dinner in Venice a bit of rush at times. We arrived on an evening flight and the hotel organised a private water taxi transfer from the airport. A fabulous start to our trip seeing Venice lit up by night and well worth the price. I’m looking forward to staying there again in the future.

We stayed at the Hotel Panorama for a long weekend and we couldn't have chosen a better place to stay. The taxi transport from the airport was seamless even though we were a bit worried about having to get the boat to the Lido very late in the evening. The hotel was very welcoming and our room was lovely, large and very comfortable with a sea view across the bay. Breakfast was plentiful and very relaxed and the weather was warm enough to have coffee on the terrace which was a welcome bonus. The hotel reception team arranged a free trip to Murano which was facinating and they also organised a private water taxi tour around Venice which was well worth it. They are so friendly & knowledgeable. The hotel was also within waking distance to some lovely restaurants and we walked to the beaches which took about 10 minutes and was worth it. The hotel is also directly opposite the water bus station so it made it so easy for getting about. It was nice to come back to a quieter area in the evening with the most amazing views. All in all a very lovely weekend. Thankyou!

It was a nice experience overall. There is a €3.60 city tax per person per night that's added on and can only be paid in cash which was inconvenient. There is tea/coffee provided in the room, however, they also charge to refill them if you use any. Breakfast is an extra €5 per person and breakfast lasts less than 3 hours (7am-9:45am) which is a bit inconvenient if you want to sleep in or if you have to get up early. The desk staff is moderately friendly. When we first arrived they weren't too friendly but the evening and check out attendants were nicer. The room is pretty small and really only enough room to eat around the perimeter of the bed. The bathroom is decently sized, however, the shower didn't have a door so water pools out onto the floor unless you huddle close to the shower head and even then... The TV is very small and not easily seen if you are vision impaired. My biggest complaint, however, is how hard the bed was. There's little to no cushion on the mattress. I woke up both mornings I was there and had back and hip pain (I'm 28 yrs old in relatively good physical condition). It is close to sleeping on the floor. There was a closet with a nice amount of space to put our things. There is also am elevator to access the floors which was convenient on days that we walked a ton. The lobby is nice and clean and has some seating areas. We did not explore the bar or breakfast areas. The hotel itself is located near the water bus station for easy access to Venice. It is also on a strip of shops and restaurants. Granted most things on the island of Lido do close early and a lot of them are temporarily closed but still marked as open on Google maps. Plan accordingly and call places ahead of time. I've included pictures of the bathroom which was overall nice, however, I didn't take pictures of the bedroom as it was small and hard to get a good angle.

Mabapa delivered on what you’re paying for. Decent rooms and bathrooms. Well located near the waterfront with a 10 minute walk to the beach and 10 minute walk to main waterbus station. The staff were friendly when we arrived but got less friendly as time went on. Breakfast was okay. All in all a good place to stay if you want to explore both Venice and what the Lido has to offer.

The hotel is very close to the Lodo port. But since it is too close, the house will shake when the boat hits the levee. Room amenities are a little dated, Even though it's a non-smoking room, I can still smell some smoke. All the staff are very friendly. They can prepare a takeaway breakfast if you leave the hotel before breakfast time.

I stayed in this hotel in Lido at the occasion of the Redector 2023. I was in Lido, at a steam stop from the main island of Venice; less than 10 minutes walk from the steam stop. I took a double room with my mother. The staff were very friendly, the rooms were very clean and the breakfast was excellent.

Having stayed at the Villa Pannonia Hotel Venice Lido before Covid and had a very warm welcome with excellent service to returning to this very special hotel this June 2023 and to receive again the special welcome back service was more than special . I have travelled and stayed in many hotels in Europe and Far Away countries as part of my job but the Villa Pannonia has this friendly energy . So thank you Villa Pannonia your staff are as special as your unique hotel.

Very quiet hotel

This hotel is very old. Having said this, it was very quaint with nicely decorated rooms. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was very clean. It had a small refrigerator and a safe. The staff were professional and helpful. The food was quite good. However, the air conditioning system is a joke. I was prepared for it not to get the room cold but I expected it to get the room somewhat cool. When we returned to the room after a hot, busy day in Venice Island, I was looking forward to a shower and a cool room. The room was actually warmer than the air outside. I took the shower and then was soaked in sweat for half of the night until the outside temperature cooled enough for the room to cool. The hotel made noises about getting a technician in to ”adjust” the system the next morning and we were assured that the AC would be fine the next even upon our return. To our dismay this was not the case and we spent a second very uncomfortable night. Again, I didn't expect cold but the room temperature at night was at least 27 celcius, and I'm sure that it was higher. It was stifling. For this reason I cannot recommend this hotel to anyone. I will never stay here again.
