Hotel with a view
by MaheshSamtani
I have always prefeered to stay in hotels belonging to companies familiar to me to avoid unwanted surprises when reaching the hotel. The NH Laguna Palace was a correct choice for Venice, in this case and was not mistaken. I was aware that the hotel was about 10 Km. away from Venice but was worth it. The hotel is in a comfortable set up with great rooms, service and food. It is a four start hotel which could be considered as luxurious with factors that make it unique such as having a marina inside the hotel property with boats, with the biggest glass roof in Europe, however what matters is the comfort and service and I personally could rank it at 9.5 and therefore recomendable.
We checked in fairly late, about 9:30pm. I parked the car by the entrance, which is off to the side of the hotel. Afterwards we drove underground to park the car and then had to take two elevators up to our floor. The room was large, with a beautiful bathroom of cream and black marble tile. Our extremely large bay windows looked out to the business park across the street, but that aside, this was a beautiful hotel. The bar was really well done, and the entire lobby area was fashionable, clean and sleek. The hotel was essentially two buildings straddling a small marina, connected by intricate bars and poles.
The hotel is about 10 minutes away from the gathering area/parking lot in Venice and offers a shuttle van (for a fee) to and from Venice.
