Hotel Villa Braida Reviews

Beautiful place with nice and helpful staff, rich breakfast.

The location is great for a quiet stay in a spacious, quiet area 20 minutes from Venice.

Quick overnight stay near the airport

Sorry, I don’t want to say more.

Beautiful villa but very neglected. Poor and poor quality breakfast. Unfriendly waiters. Dust in the room.

Nice old building with big garden park. But the room was also old and it was not so comfy for todays 4 star hotel standards. That why I think the price was a bit higher. Location is fine, near the highway and approx. 25mins from Venice. Parking was free on site. Overall 3,5/5.

The room was no where near a 4 star room, maybe a 2 star ... Old furniture that is scratched and torn, everything in the bathroom was patched it repaired in some way. The shower was extra small. The stuff was very ok, very polite, good English (that is why this is a 2 star review and not a 1 star). The common areas and the outside areas of the villa look really nice, but it is located in the middle of nowhere, so, good for a wedding I presume, but not so much for a regular tourist in Venice area

If you want to sleep in the room with bugs or in the room with mold in the bathroom, where there is no space to put legs between toilet and then this hotel may be for you. However, if you do not want none of this and ask just for what you paid (4* hotel, double room with breakfast) then you may be humiliated on the reception that they can do with your reservation what they want, that everything what they offered to you is good enough, since you paid so miserable rate. BTW rate was offered by hotel on well-known reservation site. And finally, if you decide to place official complain to hotels manager don't worry, you'll never get any kind of response. Awful and shameless, for us never again.

I had 2 days business meeting in Villa Braida. Eveything was PERFECT to mitigate the stress of working time. The food was great with a quality you would not expect. Meeting room prepared as we requested. Room comfortable and clean. On top of everything, the staff, that was making us comfortable as at home. SUPER! For transfer from/to airport or Venice I also would recomend to ask for mr Lucio, friendly and professional!

If you want to sleep in the room with bugs; mold in the bathroom, shower cabine not being able to close & consequently so small that you can not take a shower, toiletries& vanity sets not at all present, slipers of cours you do not have; where there is no space to put legs between toilet and sink; where you are going to pay breakfast but staff is going to tell you that you did not pay it; where the sheets are with holes, blanked is pree WWII dirty, towels 10+years of use greyish colur; where recept.manager is going to shout at you and finally where Genaral manager does not exist, then this hotel is perfect for you. About stuff better not to talk, receptionist that we waited for 10min upon arrival, then she arrived with unprofessional look, untidy, patches all over the face, hair not washed 10 days probably, everything on her screemed that need ironing at least, washing preferably - just like you were surprised being sleepeing when you should not or something else. Photos attached, so you can see at your own. However, if you do not want none of this and ask just for what you paid (4* hotel- for us it is clear what we expect, double room with breakfast) then you may be humiliated at the reception that they can do with your reservation what they want, that everything what they offered to you is good enough, they will not upgrade you ( eventhough you did not ask upgrade, just what you paid), since you paid so miserable rate. BTW rate was offered by hotel on well-known reservation site, and the only problem we had at that long trip (23days) using same site was this hotel. Apart from everything above they refused to give us invoice for our stay, so we will make complaint to Financial police in Italy, since obviously they are not reporting guests and paying taxes as they should. As being extensive traveleres for 40+ years, without a doubt this is the worst hotel we evere saw. And finally, if you decide to place official complain to hotels manager don't worry, you'll never get any kind of response. Awful and shameless, for us never again. Just one thing to add, do not be fuled with photos, "villa" does exist but normal room are not even close to 4* hotel, I have been to 1* hotel long time ago being much better than this one!

A 4-star Hotel/Villa, very poorly maintained and which does not offer the services of a 4-star, starting with cleanliness. As soon as I arrived I found dirty towels. Smelly rooms and an obsolete heating system, in fact it stopped working after the first evening. When you book the room on the phone with the reception, the latter forgets to provide an important detail: the infestation of bedbugs in the rooms and throughout the hotel. So we slept together. Returning to cleanliness, in 3 days of overnight stay they never changed the sheets, not to mention the mattress cover with various stains. Obviously we reported everything, but they told us that we need to speak to the owner about complaints.

Can excellence be surpassed? Yes, in this timeless, classic and modern place, accessible to everyone but exclusive at the same time. Details, availability and the human color of the staff are all.

An exceptional wedding lunch, never before eaten so well at a reception with 100 guests, truly a very high-class Calamarata cooking school, to go out of your mind, flavors and tastes, exceptional, good, good

Terrible experience. Besides the bed bug infestation that prevented the windows from being opened, I had a terrible breakfast experience. I went down at 8 to have breakfast and found all the tables with the remains of previous customers and no one came to clear the table. I called one of the staff who simply quickly cleared a table without cleaning it. There was nothing left to eat, just a piece of tart and a couple of pieces of donut. I called the staff back who invited me to eat what was left and only after insisting did they bring me a couple of croissants. I would like to point out that I remained in the breakfast room for about 15 minutes and none of the staff cleared the tables, even though customers continued to come down. In the breakfast room there were two staff who did not bother to clear the tables to accommodate customers.
