Everything was great in the room, except for the lack of light in the bathroom and the steps that were scary at first sight. Daily cleaning, clean bed linen and towels every day.

Given a choice i woukd not pay more than €30.00 per night for double standard room. I was more thanb€100.00 per night for a room which was like a converted loft. The picture looks so good while booking.
Staff behaviour was not coperarive. We were willing to pay extra for early check-in but staff would only say check-in at 2 p.m.
Similarly, breakfast was poor.
Overall inwould never recommwnd anyone to stay in Hotel San Zulian.

The AC did not work and we ended up paying for the room and getting another hotel for 3 nights because we couldn’t sleep in the heat.

The overall experience was slightly below average. The property didn’t quite match the photos, and there was an unpleasant odor in the room, likely due to the nearby canals. Staff service and breakfast were acceptable but unremarkable. The best aspect was the convenient location near St. Mark’s Square

The reason I did not give it five star is I specifically looked for a hotel than elevator. There is an elevator, however, only goes to the third floor and they put my room on the fourth floor. I have two hip replacements and had to carry a bag up a flight and a half of stairs and walk up and down each and every day, which I was trying to avoid sure that it was not good. The room is room was nice bathroom was big enough to get in and out of unlike other European bathrooms with the showers . Would consider going back but would have to be on floor 1-3 only. Very good location. Breakfast was ok, very minimalistic.

Room was big and comfortable, location was great, easy trip on the city ferry from the train station to the Rialto stop and an easy walk to the hotel from there. Breakfast was adequate, the only downside was the bathroom in our room had a pretty bad sewer smell. We kept the bathroom door closed and a window open so it did not affect the rest of the room. Would recommend.

The hotel was really well located and the staff welcomed us in a very friendly way. The rooms were a bit old and we got a room in the main floor so there was a bit of noise in the morning and late at night but it was perfect for a short stay

The pictures listed of the rooms did not match what the actually looked like. Hotel was very run down. While it’s expected that rooms in Europe are smaller, this was extreme.

Convenient location near St Mark Square. Clean. Reception staff were not helpful, and sometimes rude. On arrival, Reception person made us go around the hotel outside and carry our heavy luggage up 4 flights of stairs. Meanwhile down the hall from reception was an elevator that could take us to the third floor! Another reception person exploded in rage when we tried to confirm a second time if it was possible to grab coffee before official breakfast opening time at 8 am because we had an early tour. Not friendly, not patient, not helpful.

Great location, clean room, breakfast was a little underwhelming with very little choice. Would have liked a few more amenities in the room such as coffee and tea.
