This review is way overdue, but I figure better late than never! :) We stayed at the BW Olimpia for 2 nights pre-cruise and 2 nights post-cruise last fall… and would absolutely recommend it again! We arrived in Venice via train from Rome in early Oct 2012, and found it very easy to roll our luggage over to the hotel... More

This was our favorite of all the hotels we stayed at during our 2 1/2 week trip to Europe! I think because of the charming decor in the rooms and because of all the the space we had (a rare find in Europe)! We even got the most inexpensive room and still had tons of space! It is very close... More

My Wife and I stayed at the Olimpia for one night prior to sailing on the Carnival Legend; we had a perfect experience. The hotel staff was efficient, helpful, and friendly and the hotel itself was not only perfect for our needs but incredibly close to the port and people mover but also the Piazzole Roma to grab a water-bus...

As we were in Venice to join a cruise, we wanted a hotel that was well placed to the port. The benefits of this hotel were that it was a stone's throw away from the airport bus stop, the People Mover (to take us to the port) the local bus terminal, the water bus stop as well as the water... More

We stayed here before leaving on our cruise. It was so convieant we were able to take a land taxi from the airport to the hotel. The hotel is in walking distance from all the restaurants and shops.

We haven't stayed at this hotel, our booking did not get that far. I wanted two nights pre/post cruise so dates which were separated by 2 weeks.

The hotel was located very near the bus station. The shuttle bus from the airport took less than 30 minutes and we were at the hotel in less than 10 minutes. It is next to the brightly yellow coloured Hotel Arlecchino. We were given a room in an annex next to the hotel which has a separate entrance. The room... More
