Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Hotel Montecarlo enjoys a prime location, just a short walk from St Mark's Square, making it easy to explore the main attractions. Many guests appreciate the spacious and clean rooms, some with pleasant views, especially in the apartments around the corner, where some rooms even offer a canal view. A highlight for many is the varied and tasty breakfast, coupled with a complimentary afternoon tea with cakes and coffee; however, a few guests have occasionally found some rooms to be small. The hotel is also near the canal, making water taxi transport convenient.
