Excellent return trip to this wonderful hotel. Set right on the seafront with direct access to the beach, the hotel is an excellent base for a holiday in Lido de Jesolo. Staff are all very friendly and helpful and breakfast was good, with a really varied buffet. Pool bar food and drink service was great from Chiara and Giulia. Look forward to returning in the future.

“I would return”

Let me start initially with the negatives. We had a really early easyJet flight out of Gatwick so got to the hotel before midday. We were met with the usual “your rooms not ready” which we expected anyway. The receptionist took my mobile number and email address and suggested we wait in the bar. Unfortunately nobody told us where the bar was! It was through a broom cupboard door which was closed at the time and this lead out onto the sun terrace. I’m not sure how we were supposed to know this and we had to ask them. We went to sit at a table which was being laid for lunch. We were told we were not to sit there but nobody explained why we couldn’t sit there or why we couldn’t have lunch. We could sit on some cushioned seating area for free but we were happy to pay! It was all a bit bizarre. Eventually we managed to grab somebody to get us a drink but we had to repeatedly find someone to serve us. We weren’t contacted when the room was ready and we only discovered it was ready when we went back to the reception at about 1330. The receptionist told us we did not have a sea view which I thought holidaying with TUI we would get. When we got to the room, we did have a sea view? The room was clean but small for the three of us. There was barely room for the three us and our suitcases. Now for the plus points. This is a nice hotel, we did enjoy our stay, honestly. Yes the service could be patchy. I started to think perhaps our orders were getting lost in translation perhaps. My husband felt they we’re putting their own countryman first. I’m not sure if they were or not tbh. I did really like the hotel and I liked most of the food they served as well. I just think in the Mediterranean they like to survive with a certain amount of chaos that we’re not used to. Up until we left, we still could not work out why the poolside bar suddenly had all the tables booked up and we couldn’t get anything to eat and drink. We spent 10 days there and nobody explained a single thing to us. Nobody told us the times for breakfast or dinner or where it was served and we just had to wing it. This was on direct contrast to the other British couples staying there. I just think the female who checked us in was just very unhelpful and unfriendly and the hotel might want to address this. It’s a lovely looking hotel and we did really enjoy our stay here. For me, Italy is just a cut above and this hotel was no different. When the service got patchy, and it did, we walked across the street straight into Jimbo’s Bar. Michel and Matteo are brothers and are extremely accommodating to their customers. . Michel has lived in the UK for a time so is fluent In English. Matteo prepares some lovely food in the kitchen so we were happy to spend our money in their bar instead. In fact my husband refused to go anywhere else. We watched the Euro’s there and if not in the hotel we were in Jimbo’s. The tabacchi across from Jimbos’s sells bus tickets and ferry tickets to go to Venice which we did when it was cloudy one day. Unfortunately everyone else had the same idea and trekked to Venice. The ferry was chaotic and there was a lot of “foreign “ queuing where lots of people were just walking straight up to the front. We paid €30 euros each to jump the queue into Doges Palace as we just didn’t have the time to keep queuing again. Still we did it and we’ve seen it. I would return to this hotel for a chill out because I liked the hotel on the whole. I’m just being honest about how I found it but don’t be put off. I did really enjoy my stay there. It’s lovely.

“We would probably not return”

Just arrived home from this hotel! We had the smallest room and no view at all, we seemed to be in the middle of the hotel on the 1st floor! No direct sunlight. Our view was a wall opposite! Balcony had 2 chairs no table which I’ve had in all other hotels I’ve stayed in! The bathroom was very small… more

Just arrived home from this hotel! We had the smallest room and no view at all, we seemed to be in the middle of the hotel on the 1st floor! No direct sunlight. Our view was a wall opposite! Balcony had 2 chairs no table which I’ve had in all other hotels I’ve stayed in! The bathroom was very small! My husband is 6ft 3 and there was not much room to turn in the shower let alone dry yourself! We booked this hotel through Tui but there was no other choice of rooms on their website. We were on a HB basis, breakfast was ok lots of choice but if you had a cooked breakfast the eggs were always cold even if they were brought out freshly cooked! Evening meal is served at the table, a bit of a buffet to start and various choices to choose from at breakfast for the evening. These were always served hot! Beautiful pool area but do not agree with paying €10 each for a towel and 2 sun beds to sit there when you could have 2 sun beds and umbrella on the beach which you didn’t have to pay for except €3 each for a towel! I would have thought being a 4 star hotel these would be free!
