A Tribute to Music Residenza

I spent over 9 months planning a ‘foodie’ trip to Venice and needed a decent priced ‘room with a view’. All I can say is WOW. The tribute to music residenza is a simple, unfussy, friendly hotel, with a view to match the ridiculously and overpriced establishments a few minutes walk away. It doesn’t have butlers, men in smart suits, 24 hour room service, but what is has in buckets, is charm, character, comfort and is, most certainly a perfect base for exploring ALL of Venice from the nearby Arsenale Water Bus Stop. My needs are simple. A clean room, bathroom, LOCAL breakfast, not a fry up thank-you as I am in Venice and that’s just not right. Breakfast is delivered daily, selected from a double sided list of goodies. The basic offering is Croissant, Bread, Butter and assorted spreads. Further options include cheese, various hams, juice and much much more, you won’t feel hungry, before you depart for your days adventure. There is a room safe to store small valuables, storage for your clothes, a spotless bathroom with shower, hairdryer etc. I had a delightful stay in this lovely little hotel, with a stunning view, friendly and helpful staff and a lovely breakfast delivered fresh every morning.

The location of this hotel is exceptional! Right on the lagoon with amazing views. The reception staff are very friendly and eager to help you, and the hotel is also clean with fresh bedding and towels provided. However, the hotel generally needs some money spending on it to bring it back to a good standard. The decor and carpets, etc, whilst clean, are tired and damaged, including chipped tiles, stained carpets and missing lampshades in some areas. Also, the breakfast set up isn’t ideal, and the staff overseeing breakfast’s are rude and abrupt.

Great location. Close to st marks. Just round the corner some really great restaurants at a reasonable price. Fantastic, helpful and friendly staff. Rooms are classy and comfortable. We were late check in but instruction were clear and easy. Very close to the boat stop which takes you directly to the airport

Very central hotel, within walking distance of St Marks Square. Staff were fantastic, extremely knowledgeable and helpful

Staff was very welcoming and friendly. We had a very clean superior room with a view of the lagoon which was breathtaking. Breakfast is served in your room which was nice (try the pancakes!). Only downside is the shower water is cold no matter how hot you try to make it! Reception is 7am to 11pm which is good to know if you have a very early check out.

This property is in an amazing location, a 10min walk to st marks square. Bed was comfortable the only down point is the shower, no water pressure and just lukewarm water.

If you’re unsure on somewhere to book, look no further!! My sister and I stayed here for 3 nights and there isn’t anything we would change about the whole experience. The staff were all so friendly, they had helped my Mum organise a bottle of Prosecco to be left in our room which was kind of them, they gave us a map and just generally made us feel so welcome. The hotel decor was slightly dated but this is by no means a negative as it was all extremely clean and comfortable. We had the most incredible view from our window and the location couldn’t of been any better. Would not hesitate in booking here for our next stay!

Close to everything. Great service. Incredible view from balcony.

The image shows a rooftop deck with a bottle of wine on the table. There is NO deck or outdoor space, only a tiny, tired lobby without windows. Breakfast is included, but served in your room. There is no breakfast room which was not disclosed. Envisioned breakfast on the deck overlooking the lagoon and a cocktail on the deck in the evening. Instead had to sit on the bed to eat. Bathroom needed an update and the tub did not drain. Staff helpful and friendly.
