Zero-Star Experience – Misleading Photos and Poor Service
My stay at Canal Hotel Venice was extremely disappointing. The pictures shown online are very misleading. In fact, the front building pictures displayed on the Trip.com website are not even of this hotel — they appear to be of a building located across the canal, which creates a completely false impression of the property.
When we arrived, the actual hotel building looked poorly maintained. The front wall and several windows seem to be falling apart, giving the place a very neglected appearance.
The concierge staff were rude and unhelpful, and the kitchen staff were equally unfriendly. Their attitude towards guests was unprofessional and made the stay even more unpleasant.
What was most concerning was the hygiene in the kitchen area, which appeared to be poorly maintained and not properly cleaned. This is very worrying when food is being prepared there.
Breakfast was also very basic with very limited options and low quality.
Overall, the experience was very disappointing due to misleading pictures, rude staff, poor hygiene standards, and a badly maintained building. I would not recommend staying here.
