Pensione Accademia Villa Maravege - Venecia

It was a very peaceful and relaxing hotel to stay in. Location could not be better. Some lovely icons in the bar. A good faintly old fashioned atmosphere about the hotel. Excellent breakfast. Many pleasant small restaurants nearby.

We had a most enjoyable time.

lovely hotel setting, great location, good service, wonderful room with view

I love the Pensione Accademia for all of the reasons listed above, however, the staff go out of their way to make you feel at home and to provide all the information to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. It is also fabulous to arrive from the airport with a watertaxi and step out in the garden of the Pensione. There are also fabulous restaurants only minutes away and lot of great shops too.

Perfect for a visit to Venice and special having a very attractive garden and great location

poor weather, not their fault of course.

Excellent Location Very friendly helpful staff Garden Breakfast much better than the usual Italian offering

Location, friendly staff, efficient & helpful concierge service, decor

Villa Maravage is a lovely hotel, with two gardens located on a moderately busy canal just off the Grand. We enjoyed our stay. Great breakfast and helpful staff. Decor could use a little work but other positives more than made up for it. Guests intermingled easily and in a friendly mood of the hotel. The gardens are a great haven from the excessive tourism that now best describes the Venetian experience.

Bed was a little harder even than usual for Europe.

Lovely stay in junior suite with 2 rooms and 2 TVs (good for 3 persons)! Comfortable bed. The doublerooms looked wonderful too when I walked by so next time if we are only 2, well book one of those and save us a little cash.. Beatyful gardens, with chairs and tables and canal view. Perfect quiet location. Friendly staff!!! Great breakfast with hot and cold food. Bar with snacks and drinks for reosonable prices. Perfect in every way!

No elevator. No problem for us and not så many stairs but good to know if somebody is challenged that way.

Close to a vaparetto (water bus), restaurants and shopping; Very well maintained and lovely; Breakfast was awesome.

Our room was tiny. For two people it was a tight fit. The bar was never staffed during our stay -- perhaps because it was off-season. "Free Internet" is only in the lobby, and must be accessed by the front desk entering a code, which lasts for just 15 minutes. It was very inconvenient to briefly check email and the front desk employee often seemed very inconvenienced himself. :-) Also note: There is not an elevator in this hotel so if you mind climbing what could be a lot of stairs, be aware.

First I choose it because the price was reasonable for Venezia in Carnaval and they accepted to be paid on spot and notin advance. The location is great just a few steps from vaporetto stop accademia, it has also arrival for water taxis. The staff was helpfull and make a pointy of solving everything that may arrive,buffet breakfast is very good and during the day there is tea and fruits available from 4 to 6 I would strongly recommend it and if I´m lucky enough to come back to venezia I would like to saty again

We most enjoyed the beautiful patios and gardens. In addition, the staff was delightful and helpful. We had a lovely breakfast each day on the patio overlooking a canal and had wine in the center garden each evening. These quiet moments framed our busy days in Venice. The location, near the Accademia Bridge, was convenient for touriing Venice on foot. Finally, our room was lovely for a small European hotel. The room had hardwood floors and antique furniture. The bathroom, though modest, provided a well working shower and tub. We most definitely would stay there again!

We were on the canal side and loved having our windows open at night. However, we soon learned that the street noise from a nearby bridge could be pretty loud. It was cool when we were there so we could shut the windows but in the hotter weather, it might be an issue.

Excellent location near the Accademia Gallery. Very friendly reception staff. Kettle in the room (unusual for hotels outside Britain) was a nice touch.

Bed was a bit soft for my liking.

Its situation for access to Venice and the Vaporetti but it was in a quiet location.

The beds were too hard

A very comfortable hotel, with friendly, efficient and helpful staff and an excellent location. Great benefit (in Venice) of two gardens, including a delightful back garden. Nice room, with canal view (though this meant noisy mornings!) pleasant furnishings and good bathroom. Good lemon tea available in the afternoon.

Breakfasts are no better than adequate - poor coffee, poor juices, apparently watered down.The concierges at the desk were extremely helpful, but to our surprise would not allow us to check-in for our flight on-line.

This place was just fantastic. Beautiful room, surroundings, friendly staff etc. Wonderful.
