"Great stay on the boat, new, well equipped and fantastic terrace on the roof to relax and enjoy the gorgeous sunset in the evening. The boat is located in a small campsite with a small bar/restaurant and pool use for free. Friendly and very helpful staff. There is a water park close by and the lovely small town of Sesto Calende with shops, bars and restaurants is only 15-20 minutes walk away. Great short stay with the family"

"Byłam na Sissi Boat z koleżanką. Niech nie zmyli was nazwa boat and breakfast, chyba że śniadaniem nazywacie stare rogaliki i suchary, które leżą w koszyku nie wiadomo jak długo. Nie liczyłyśmy na luksus w końcu to łódka, jednak mogłoby być czyściej i schludniej. Łódka jest brudna na zewnątrz i zakurzona w środku, lata świetności ma dawno za sobą. W środku śmierdziało benzyną, a z łazienki szambem. W środku bardzo mało miejsca. Już na początku zostałyśmy poinformowane, że nie powinnyśmy nic jeść...

Top Italy Hotel Reviews

Hotel Plaza Venice

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic and helpful staff. They were accommodating enough to let us drop off luggage a few hours early before check in and the luggage was waiting for us in our room. Fantastic room that was spacious and clean. Perfect for our family of 4. Great location right across from the train station and within walking distance of more than a dozen restaurants. We felt safe and well accommodated there. The only slight hiccup was that, for a hotel of this status, we felt the breakfast was a little lacking. The eggs, sausage, bacon, and beans were not very good. The fruit was fairly mediocre as well. The pastries/bread were adequate, and the cheeses were good, as well as the coffee/hot chocolate. In spite of the mediocre breakfast, in all other regards, this hotel was far and away the best we stayed at during our entire 10-day European trip. I would definitely stay here again."

Hotel Berna

10/10 Excellent

"I was very pleasantly surprised with this hotel. Although it keeps an air of an old grand dame of the 1950s (decor), it has very contemporary touches (A/C, ceiling fan, complimentary bathrobes and slippers, kettle) and is very clean. The breakfast is generous and varied. The staff are all multilingual, very kind and helpful. Finally, the hotel is conveniently located just a block and a half from Milano Centrale train station. I completely recommend it."

Hotel Cavalletto e Doge Orseolo

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful Stay in Venice! 🇮🇹✨ We had a wonderful 2-night stay at Hotel Cavalletto e Doge Orseolo! The location was perfect—right in the heart of Venice and within walking distance of all the major sights, shops, and restaurants. The hotel had a charming Venetian atmosphere, and our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it! ❤️🇮🇹"
