Hotel Moresco

Stayed here 3 nights (on 2 separate occasions) and was very impressed. The staff was always on point and the rooms were very impressive. The hotel is quite a walk from the bustling shopping areas but it’s a short walk to the train, bus, and cruise terminals and if you were willing to pay for it, just a 15 minute water taxi ride, door to door to/​from the airport (which the hotel was able to coordinate). The little library bar was a cool hangout at night after realizing there isn’t much to do in Venice after dinner, and the patio was beautiful and smelled of lily anytime there was a breeze. The complimentary breakfast, and food at happy hour were high end and the welcome bottle of bubbles on ice is a nice touch. My only real complaints were; 1.) A/​C in both rooms
I stayed in didn’t really work well or was underpowered for the room, 2.) there is only one american outlet in the entire room so charging phones, laptops, cameras all required shuttling our devices to the bathroom sink — not the end of the world of course. The positives of this place more than outweigh these issues. Would definitely stay again.

More from the Honeymoon.
I will say that I didn’t have super high expectations going into this hotel, but overall it was one of the best hotel experiences I have ever had.
Rather than just doing a regular, narrative review, it will save time to just list all of the great things about this hotel:
–Before arriving, they sent out a detailed email showing our various options from getting to the hotel from the airport, including a set of pictures showing what walking to the hotel from a certain drop off point would look like.
–At check-​in the room wasn’t ready yet (we were early), so they took our luggage and offered us a complimentary drink in their lounge.
–Luggage was taken automatically to our room when it became available (as we were walking through Venice)
–Room was super comfortable, had an amazing view of the canal, and we were given a full room tour when we first went up.
–Any time we left for the day, the room was not only cleaned but straightened. This includes hanging up coats, capping bottles that were left open, and closing up open suitcases
–Free bottle of Prosecco and free cake upon leaving
–We never took advantage of it, but apparently they offered free breakfast every morning and a free buffet dinner every night. Had we chosen to, we would not have had to pay for food the entire time.
–Friendliest front desk staff ever. They helped us with bookings, recommendations, and made the process of traveling so much easier. We were greeted with big smiles every time they ever saw us, coming or going
I know reading about hotels isn’t as exciting as reading about food, but really if you are ever in Venice for a vacation I recommend this hotel highly.

This is possibly the best hotel I have ever stayed in. The staff is outstanding and ever so helpful. The room had a view of the canal. It was large and comfortable. The bathroom shower was spacious and tastefully decorated. I cannot say enough wonderful things about the hotel. You will just have to come here for a stay!

Venice was our 5^th stop on our month long honeymoon-​adventure through Europe. In our last 4 hotels, we only had one dud so Hotel Moresco had a high bar to reach. And they exceeded it! What an amazing, special hotel.
We start at our arrival at Marco Polo airport. The hotel arranged a private water taxi for us for approx. € 110. What an amazing way to enter the city. And the boat takes you right to the front door of the hotel. I highly recommend this!!! It was so cool and definitely worth the money.
Once we arrived at the hotel, we were greeted by a friendly staff that checked us in promptly. They took our bags upstairs and showed us the amenities of the room. The staff is so nice!!!
Our room was amazing. Not huge but normal for Europe. Plenty of room for my wife and I to put away our clothing and feel like we had some space to move around still. Plus, you’re not inviting people to hang in the room with you so how much room do you ever really need on these types of trips.
The bed was super comfy. It faced our two windows which both look out to one of Venice’s fantastic canals. Omg. What an amazingly cool view to look out in the morning and night.
The shower and bathroom were very nice as well.
The location is perfect for us. We don’t like to be in the middle of the touristy, chaos. We prefer to be closer to the authentic city life and neighborhoods… as long as we can get to the touristy crap easily. And as long as you’re ok with a 15 minute walk, you’re close enough to St. Marks and the touristy scene.
There are a ton of restaurants, cafes, and such right around the hotel. One of my favorite pizza places in all of Europe is right around the corner. It’s a «walk up and order and eat standing» type pizza place. Delicious.
The breakfast and early evening happy hour at the hotel are amazing as well. We ate our made to order breakfasts in the courtyard area every morning. It’s really fantastic. There is always food, snacks, drinks and fruits available for the taking (²⁴⁄₇) so we were always picking up a cookie or something whenever we came or left the hotel.
One day it rained and the hotel had amazing umbrellas by the door. They saved us. We walked around the whole city while the streets were emptied out. It was perfect.
Hotel Moresco and its staff made our Venice experience what it was. Thank you to all the staff and we hope to see you the next time we come to your amazing city!

Simply the best, checking in, they seated us in their garden, served us prosecco and delicious appetizers. Nicky, the manager/​concierge was totally helpful– gave wonderful local restaurant recommendations. The location was superb for us, off the grand canal so it was quiet and away from the crowds. The Santa Croce neighborhood was so inviting and beautiful that we decided not to go to the conventional tourist attractions and stayed local.
The rooms are gorgeous, well fit out, top toiletries and exceeding comfortable beds. Everything worked to perfection.
The price point of this hotel is really remarkable making it both a great place to stay and a great value at the same time.

We had an amazing stay at Hotel Moresco. We had taken a cruise out of Venice, and stayed here for a couple of days on our way back. We had arrived in the morning well before our check in time, but the staff was very helpful and directed us to relax and have breakfast out on the patio while they got a room ready for us. Our room was gorgeous, spacious (especially for European standards), and very comfortable. Location is great; easy to get to the bus circle to get back to the airport. Very memorable experience, and one of our favorite hotels that we’ve ever stayed in.

We stayed at the hotel for one night during our vacation to Italy in December 2014. Hotel Moresco stands out as a gem in the lovely city of Venice and we could not have been happier with our stay. The staff was prompt during all aspects of our trip — right from emailing itineraries to the Italian consulate for our Schengen visa to providing us assistance into the local sights and sounds! When we checked in, Fabio at the front desk was extremely helpful and recommended the best places for cichetti and local Venetian food. Our room was nothing short of opulent and had everything one could ask for to feel special — a spacious, contemporary room, espresso machine, plush bathrobe and slippers, a mini fridge equipped with reasonably priced goodies and the best part… a spa bath! Finally, this review would be incomplete without a mention of the breakfast. The breakfast was, by far, the best that we’ve had in any hotel we’ve stayed. Made-​to-​order omelettes, yummy savory puffs, fresh honey comb (yes!), etc offered the perfect energy boost to walk through the narrow streets and canals of Venice! Thank you, Hotel Moresco and we hope to be back soon…

Can I live here?!
I am in love with this hotel. They do everything to make your stay relaxing and enjoyable. I can’t say enough good things — and I sort of don’t want to because I want this place all to myself.
The rooms are clean and bathrooms gorgeous. The staff is attentive and courteous — my favorite being Lorenzo. DO NOT miss the happy hour.
This place was my favorite stay in Italy.

Poor customer service. Unfortunately we had made our reservation with the nonrefundable rate through
and paid months ahead or time. We had to cancel our trip to Italy due to a tragedy in our family. We were able to give a month’s notice.
was sympathetic and said they would see if the hotel would be willing to at least provide a partial refund due to the circumstances. Hotel Moresco would not. We will go elsewhere when we are able to return to Italy.

Fabulous hotel! Prior to our arrival we asked the hotel to make some restaurant reservations for us and they promptly made the bookings and notified us.
We were not sure if the location was ideal but it was actually perfect! From the airport you can take the airport express and arrive at the bus station in 20 mins for only about 11 euros round trip. The hotel is less than 5 minute walk from the bus station and it is a very easy and quick walk.
Walking to San Marco is about twenty minutes but there are plenty of random canals to explore along the way! Plenty of restaurants nearby too!
Upon arrival you are provided with some complimentary snacks and drinks. We also were provided a free bottle of prosecco in our room. The hotel has a complimentary breakfast with eggs made to order as well as evening snacks. Free wi-​fi too!
Our room was spacious, clean, and tastefully decorated. The bed was very comfortable!

Fantastic!
My room was beautiful. Loved the big window that opened to the garden. Big, beautiful bathroom with plush towels and bathrobe.
Customer service = A+
The experience started with a welcoming latte in the front sitting room. From that moment, I was waited on and taken care of by the staff.
My bag didn’t arrive on the flight with me. Instead of my having to chase it down, the hotel staff took it upon themselves to locate it and get it delivered to my room.
Both the breakfast and the evening reception were very nice.
I’ll be back!
