I returned to the Danieli the first time since Covid and we had two renovated rooms in the Dandolo Palazzo (the oldest of the three buildings). The rooms were beautiful, the beds fabulous, the service great - and above all the breakfast on the terrace on the top floor remains one of the greatest experiences. High marks for the concierge who organises the best bookings.

Having previously stayed at the Danieli and being in Venice we arrived at the concierge desk to ask if we could reserve a table for dinner. My companion asked the concierge could we reserve a table for dinner. The response without even asking which day was ???we are fully booked???. Massively arrogant and we were incredibly disappointed to be spoken to at such (as we thought) a prestigious Venetian hotel.

I never leave TripAdvisor reviews, but I had such an amazing brunch that I had to. Not only can you see some of the most amazing views of Venice from the terrace, but the buffet and the bottomless sparkling wine were wonderful! Most of all, the service was impeccable. Lucio is one of the most fantastic, attentive, and generous waiters I was lucky enough to have. I would definitely ask for him if you can. I highly recommend - it will be one of the highlights of tour trip in Venice.

Look, there is no denying the fact that the hotel is perfectly situated, has stunning communal areas and one of the best roof terraces you will ever enjoy!
However, the rooms are shockingly bad, small, cramped, tired and, worst of all???dirty and dusty.
I have never stayed in a luxury hotel where even simple, basic requests were met with such apathy, at best, and at times disdain.
It feels like they know they have great bones to the building and people will come regardless so why put themselves out???
