We really loved our trip to Venice exploring this incredibly amazing and unique city. We enjoyed our stay at Hotel Palladio. It was a nice big hotel situated not too far from Venice itself. There were frequent local buses from a bus stop just outside the hotel, to Venice which would get us there fairly quickly. We noticed how clean the hotel was and our room always looked fresh and tidy when we returned from a long and busy day exploring Venice and Lido, and this felt important. The staff at reception was always helpful and although they seemed pressured at times, with the amount of guests they had to attend to, they were mostly very friendly and clearly made an effort to be so. On the first nigh when checking in, our receptionist, recommended a very special restaurant (The only real restaurant in the village), which was only open at the weekend and we thoroughly enjoyed the restaurant and it's good food in this small village. It seemed really authentic!
