Hotel Excelsior Venice | Hotel in Santa Maria in Stelle, Veneto

Hotel Excelsior Venice is a Hotels stay on Venice-Lido, set along the water with direct access to the beach and a calm base for time in the city. Opened in 1908, the property pairs Moorish architecture with crystal chandeliers and rich fabrics, and a refurbishment in 2013 brought in fresh tapestries, new carpets, and reliable Wi-Fi throughout, including on the beach. A free regular launch service connects you across the lagoon to St. Mark's Square, making it easy to move between the quieter shoreline and the center of Venice. Inside, the rooms are spacious and practical, with a plasma-screen satellite TV, minibar, private bathroom, bathrobes, slippers, and air conditioning. Some rooms look out over the Adriatic Sea, some open to panoramic views toward Venice, and others face the Moorish courtyard, so the setting feels part of the stay. Shared spaces keep the rhythm relaxed. There is a large heated outdoor pool, a gym with modern equipment, a restaurant serving Mediterranean dishes, and the Blue Bar for cocktails and live music. The Elimar Beach Bar Restaurant sits on the beach, and tennis and golf are available nearby. For travelers who want the ease of Venice-Lido with straightforward access to St. Mark's Square, Hotel Excelsior Venice feels composed, spacious, and distinctly memorable.
