Grande Albergo Ausonia & Hungaria

We stayed at this hotel through a holiday package with Travelzoo. When we found our hotel (which is really easy as it’s on a main road on the Island of Lido) we could not believe our eyes. It’s soooo pretty! We felt like royalty walking up the red carpeted stairs. The interior is art deco themed and the staff are lovely and friendly. I really enjoyed our breakfast the 2 mornings we stayed, but could’ve done with a bit more selection of cooked breakfast items. Our room was very warm at night but there are wooden shutters on the windows so I’d suggest shutting those and opening the double glazed glass windows on the inside. There are plenty of restaurants, cafes and shops down the road from the hotel, so if you’re a little hesitant to travel by water bus in the dark, you won’t be stranded for food. The Island is only a 10 – 15 minute water bus ride from Venice. I would definitely stay here again when I revisit Venice.

I stayed two nights at the Grande Albergo Ausonia & Hungaria Hotel (June 7 & 8, 2013). The hotel is beautifully decorated and has a great location on Lido Island. The staff is great as well.
