Hotel Panorama

First class hotel. Will stay there again. Would recommend to anybody. It felt a very safe location for two ladies traveling together. Excellent staff, wonderful breakfast.

This hotel is great!! Superb rooms, and the location is spot on for getting around by water bus or taxi. This was my first stay there, and I actually preferred it to the busier part of Venice. I will be taking the whole family again this year to the same hotel. There are some good restaurants nearby, as the hotel doesn't serve evening meals.

I would recommend the Hotel Panorama in Venice to anybody. The staff were helpful from arrival to leaving to come home. The hotel was ideally located for the river buses, and for shopping and restaurants. This was a perfect base for our holiday.

We stayed at the Hotel Panorama in October 2004 for our honeymoon. The staff are wonderful, eager to help and offer useful advice. The hotel itself is quite small, but it is spotlessly clean and the decor is beautiful. The hotel has a lift, which I believe to be a rarity in Venice!

Breakfast consisted of cold meats/cheese, cereals, fruit juices and fresh bread/pastries, all very nicely presented.

Our room was fairly small, but had all we needed and we had a balcony overlooking the lagoon with beautiful views. The only slight downside to our lagoon-view room was that there was a street directly under our window and frequent bus services travelled along it which proved quite noisy at times (Lido has road-traffic, unlike the main part of Venice).

It is easy to travel too and from the main Venice tourist areas using the water bus service, these leave across the street from the hotel's front door. The proximity of the water bus service makes it very easy to find the hotel when arriving from the airport - we saw lots of less fortunate tourists having to lug their cases through narrow Venetian streets whilst hunting for their (often well-hidden!) hotels.

We will definitely return to this hotel if we get the chance to visit Venice again.
