Hotel Antiche Figure - Venedig

Typisch venezianische Atmosphäre, Räume mit Liebe zum Detail gestaltet

warm postive welcome. Understanding of our needs and interest in our experience Helpful advice to allow us to enjoy the town. Good advice on local restaurants. Helped us secure good value accommodation for friends.

great location easy to find on arrival and way from the mad crowd also - very frindly staff and fantastic value

Our experience at the Hotel Antiche Figure was great. The location worked very well for us. Located close to the Santa Lucia Train Station without feeling like you are close. It is also close to the water taxi station and gondola station yet away from the crowds of the Rialto Bridge and San Marcos Square, which were easily within walking distance. The room was larger than I expected and the breakfast each morning was enjoyable from the street-side tables. Would definitely stay there again.

This hotel is in the perfect location (very close to the bus station and across the street from the train station and water taxi). We were traveling with our family, including my father (89 years old and using a wheel chair). We had reserved 3 rooms and upon our early arrival, the staff immediately allowed us to check into 2 of our 3 rooms, even giving my father a room on the 2nd floor. The buffet breakfast was well worth the extra price considering how high prices can be in Venice. Everyone on staff was extremely accomodating to our questions and needs. We will definitely stay in this hotel again when we return to Venice.

Our visit was in April, 2009. The most welcome sight after exiting the train in a downpour was looking across the Grand Canal and realizing our hotel was so close!!! You can't beat the location. The next best thing was the staff -- when we were inquiring if there was a Chinese restaurant on the island (I know, strange request, but our daughter who met us in Venice had been studying abroad in Italy for 3 months and was SO hungry for Chinese food!)the guy at the desk said, "just a minute, I'll find out." Then he actually ran out the front door of the hotel and down the street to ask a Chinese guy who worked in a store!! We couldn't believe it! They were SO accommodating. Our room would have been fine for two, but since our daughter was with us, they crammed in a roll-away bed next to the Queen bed which they pushed against the wall. There was absolutely no space left to maneuver in the room. (We had requested a room for 3 people -- this was the solution.) However, it didn't bother us at all -- we weren't in the room except to sleep. Didn't have a view, either, but that also wasn't an issue. The free internet in the lobby was also nice. No complimentary breakfast, but we just grabbed something as we were exploring. A tip - consider getting some sandwiches "to go" from a cafe or vendor and eating them sitting dock-side on the lagoon right by the Palazzo Ducal -- an experience and a view we'll never forget. Also, if you inquire about a gondola ride, find out the price and then tell him you'll think about it and start to walk away, I assure you he'll come down 20 Euro! We didn't do it to bargain -- we truly weren't sure if we wanted to go then or later, but he ran after us and knocked the 20 Euro off, so we said ok! We took the cheaper gondola ride of the inner canals, and it was so beautiful and peaceful -- we'd already seen the Grand Canal from the Rialto Bridge anyway.

Positioned close to train and bus stations this hotel was excellent. \we stayed in de luxe room with balcony overlooking Grand Canal, great room and facilities - enormous double bed

The employees of the hotel were outstanding! They answered all of our questions and even signed us up for a free trip to Murano. They were the friendliest and most helpful people we met on our 16 day trip to Italy and Greece. If I have a chance to go back to Venice, I will definitely stay here again.

This hotel is right near the bus terminal and across from the bus terminal which is a really good location-if you get a good map, you could find 2 little bridges to cross rather than 2 giant bridges to drap luggage. The hotel staff could not have been nicer and worked hard to help us. My husband was on a different flight and got there late- the hotel staff kept me informed of what was going on. Gave us good recomendations for dinner. They had a very nice breakfast buffet that you could not beat. The best way to get around Venice is on foot or the vaporetto is across the grand canal- the #2 is the express and the #1 is the local. Both are fabulous. If you wander, you find lots of great places to eat and shop. The rooms are very typical of European hotel rooms, but I would really recomend that you stay here and save your money for all those jewelry shops.

We loved this hotel. All the staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Our room was so comfortable and beautiful. The location was very convenient for travel to and from the train station. We couldn't have found a better place to stay. We recommend it highly.

We stayed at the Antiche Figure for two nights last week, our perspective, we hope, will help those travelling with children. The hotel is absolutely beautiful but we expected that considering the price we paid for the extra bed for the boys in the suite. The hotel is opposite the train station -but across the water from it. Therefore we had to carry all our luggage down a while until we found a bridge to cross! We weren't expecting that, my husband was so hot and sweaty on our arrival! At all the previous hotels on our stay I had made sure that breakfast was included so the kids could eat when they got up. On arrival I asked where breakfast was served and they showed me. On departure, they told us we owed for breakfast for three days. Well, considering how incredibly expensive Italy is I was upset. They were supposed to tell us at check-in but forgot! In conclusion, the hotel is lovely but when travelling with chilren the other things kind of "got in the way" for us.

The hotel was fantastic and the people were great as well. We arrived at 9:30 in the morning - having just departed our cruise ship - they were able to prepare a room for us and let us check in by 10:00. The hotel is right on the Grand Canal - the experience was fantastic. This property is very close to for access to either the trains or buses (out of Venice). Water Taxi's come right out front (they are very expensive.) There is easy access to the Vaparetto (water bus system.) Would highly recommend the property.

The Hotel was very nice and the room and bath was very nice. They spoke english, had air conditioning, and an elevator. Also had free wifi. The breakfast was different from what we have in the USA,but it was ok. Will stay there again if we are in area.

excellent location directly across from train station. staff extremely helpful and friendly. room was large by european standards and price low compared to other hotels in venice. definitely recommend.

Our stay at this hotel could not have been better. We had a lovely, large, comfortable room with a great view of the Grand Canal. We enjoyed sitting at the tables outside along the Canal for a meal or a drink. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Perfect.

Hotel located just opposite the main train station. Staffs are friendly and helpful. Room is nice and clean. Only one thing I'd complain is the smoke smell in the non-smoking room. If you have lots of heavy stuffs, this hotel is just for you. You don't have to worry about carrying those stuffs around the walkway of Venice to find the hotel. I feel very greatful that I choose this hotel.

Very convenient location and the staff was very attentive and helpful.

Located just across from the train station in Venice, this hotel represents great value especially in Venice where everything can be "pricy". What separates this hotel from others is the service. The people at the front desk were polite, helpful, and did everything possible to ensure that we were comfortable. Their recommendations in terms of things to see and instructions on how best to get there were wonderful. The room, although small, was immaculate, chocolates on the pillow every night, and was cleaned thoroughly everyday of our stay. Walking to St. Marks square was not a problem and the water taxi stop was a short walk across the bridge.

this hotel was wonderful. it is extremely close to the train station(directly across the river) which is why i picked it. i was disappointed we did not have a balcony because that is what i asked for when i made the reservations but we did overlook the canal which was amazing view. the staff was very nice and helpful, room was nice, comfortable and clean.

We stayed at the Hotel Antiche Figure for 3 nights...mother, daughter, grandma and aunty. Upon arrival Carlo made us feel very welcome and upgraded us to a fabulous suite. We decided to splurge and it was worth every euro! The front desk staff was great, they always remembered who we were and made recommendations for sites to see or restaurants to try. The hotel is very clean and staff accommodating. Every morning they asked what they could do for us and when we requested softer pillows they were in our room that night. They even offered to change out our mattresses, but we opted out even though it would have been nice! We noticed Italy likes hard mattresses and pillows. The hotel is right across from the train station and right on the canal a fun place to sit in front with drinks and people watch .

This hotle was chosen initially because of its cloeness to the St. Lucia Train Station. We didn't want to drag our luggage up and down over bidges for a great distance. You can see the hotel from the steps of St. Lucia. However, when we arrived at the hotel, what a surprise! Lovely rooms and excellent and friendly staff. In addition, by staying at Antiche Figure, you are not in the San Marco tourist crowds but rather in a quieter, and less touristy area of Venice. I will stay here again!

We stayed in this hotel last weekend and we were extremely impressed. The quality of the rooms and service far surpasses what we expected for the price we paid. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was lovely and spacious, immaculately clean and lovely. The bathroom was marble! The location cannot be faulted. We will definitely be back.

Amazing hotel. Staff where extremely friendly and helpful. Best location in Venice. Will stay again soon.

Right on the canal, just a few minutes walk from the train and bus stations. However, it is a slightly longer walk to San Marco's square, etc. Very friendly and helpful staff, with cute rooms (and free wireless/ethernet!) and an in-house cafe/bar. Overall highly recommended, though be prepared to walk or ferry to get to the main tourist attractions further south-east.

From the minute we booked our stay through to when we left the management and staff couldn't have been more helpful. From a simple room change, through to restaurant and transport advice, to the best shop to buy a "genuine" Venetian mask the hotel staff came up trumps. A great location to enjoy Venice from.

This hotel is located in the best place of Venice , just in front of the Train station. Is very easy to get there from the Station and fron the Parking Lot you only have to walk some stairs. The rooms where very clean. The service is excellent , they where very kind and nice. The location of the hotel is the best of Venice. If i have to rated this hotel from 1 to 10 i will rated 10.

The staff is very knowledgeable and helpful and they speak English. The hotel is right over the bridge from the train station. Our room was small by american standards but beautifully decorated and clean. My girlfriend and I definitely recommend Hotel Antiche Figure and would stay there again in a heartbeat.

The hotel has a great location. The service was excellent. The hostess was very attentive to our needs. I would recommend this hotel. The Location was great too. Very close to all attractions and easy to get on the train. It was right across the canal.

The location of the hotel is excellent, the hotel was clean and spacious but the most amazing thing about the hotel is the friendly and helpful service. Will definitely go back.

I had a superior double for one with a view of the alley. Since the alley is so narrow, you could pratically reach the neighboring building; but this would be the case many places--narrow streets are common in Venice. The room size was adequate. The bathroom had nice fixtures. However, the bed linens did not feel all that clean. The hotel staff was alright: they were nice enough to give me a map and show me some places on it, but I did not feel they had the greatest attitude. They are close to the train station after you go over a steep bridge. Shop around though; they are not spectacular, so carefully consider competitive rates.

had a great stay , hotel staff were very warm and helpful. nice location since its a short walk from the bus station.

This hotel is probably one of the best hotels we've ever stayed at. The location is great - very close to the coach station and the train station and the waterbus stops. It's very convenient but it's also very quiet and in a safe area. The staff are extremely helpful and friendly. The room was a good size and the bathroom very well appointed and scrupulously clean. The towels were fluffy and spotless. Breakfast cost us an extra 7 Euros each, but they were fantastic. You could help yourself to as much as you wanted of their wide range of food - cold meats, cheeses, fruit, cereals, yoghurt, fruit juice, cake, croissant, bread and a full range of hot drinks! I cannot praise the place too highly or recommend it more thoroughly to anyone visint Venice!

This was my first trip to Venice and this hotel was ideal. Directly across from the train station so I did not have to wander all over the city.

excellent staff.beautiful room.Good location.intimate luxury.

From the moment we walked through the doors and were greeted by the wonderfully friendly staff, our stay at the Hotel Antiche Figure was a great one. Because we chose to visit during a low tourist season (early December), we received a great rate, and an even better value to upgrade to a canal view room. I was very impressed with the size and comfort of our room. For Europe, the room was very decently sized (I believe we ended up in one of the 'deluxe' accommodations). The bed was much softer and more comfortable than any I have previously experienced in many, many hotels all over Italy. Our room was decorated with charming Murano glass light fixtures, and a luxurious bathroom (complete with shockingly hot water -- a serious plus after wandering the cold streets for hours). We were even brought preparations for hot tea to our room, without request. The staff at the Antiche Figure was warm, friendly and more than willing to provide restaurant recommendations, or to set up tours of various attractions. They went out of their way to be the most helpful and gracious. I cannot state strongly enough how positive our experience was at the Hotel Antiche Figure. I WILL be recommending this hotel to any friends or family who may travel to Venice. Do yourself a favor -- stay at this hotel! Grazie mille, Antiche Figure, for a wonderful memory of Venice!!

I must have read a hundred reviews of this hotel, trying to find the right place at the right price in Venice -- and this was it. Couldn't have been more pleased...highly recommended.

Excellent location, especially if you are traveling by train. The hotel is across the bridge from the train station. If you are sensitive to noise, then don't get a canal front room as the hotel also faces a water bus stop so can by noisy. Staff was as helpful as any we have encountered in our travels.

Very pretty clean and efficiently run hotel Very friendly owners and staff Situation right near the end of the Grand Canal with some rooms overlooking it Good breakfast No other meals but a nice little bar Our room was at the side and so had no view at all but otherwise it was both pretty and comfortable and had a bath as well as a shower It is very near the railway station, buses and car park but you do have to get across the bridge with its steps with your luggage They are opening another hotel overlooking the canal and a little further along next year

this hotel is a gem. lovely location on the grand canal, easy accesss to everything venice has to offer and i can't say enough good things about the staff - they were so welcoming, friendly and couldn't have been more helpful in recommending how to use our time in venice getting the most out of our trip. full of tips and advice on getting around the city, and spotting restaurants that rip off tourists. i can honestly say if i go back to venice, i won't bother looking at options for accommodation, hotel antiche figure had everything for great value.

OK, so if you want to be on a small canal, or by a garden, this is not the hotel for you. But honestly, after two weeks of traveling around Italy, and a three hour train ride from Florence, we were thrilled to see the hotel Antiche Figure right across the Grand Canal from the train station. The hotel staff was incredibly friendly and responsive, which isn't really true for some of the other places we stayed, so overall it was a really nice experience. Honestly, I think we would have lost our minds if we had had to make our way--with luggage--to some hotel near San Marco or elsewhere. The convenience factor is enormous.

Superb in every way. Service the best we have ever experienced. Suite fabulous. Perfect stopover for cruise ship pre/post cruise accomodation. Do not be put off by 3 star rating, this hotel matches any 5 star accomdation.

The hotel is in a great location just across from the train station, a short walk from the bus station, and away from all traffic over by St Marks Square. The hotel staff were very friendly and accommodating and the room was really nice and clean.

Great location, great service and very nice room. My only complaint is that the mattress is not the most comfortable.
