This is a Trusted Review. Why?
This place is great for location. This was it's main advantage apart from not being in the super busy touristic parts. It was approx 15 mins from piazza San Marco by public transport (sometimes less depending on which ferry you took). Lido is very pretty and a more relaxed area, definitely cheaper to eat out. The hotel staff speak English and are happy to help but when I was there they only had a small amount of information leaflets about events and had no maps to take.

Breakfast is an extra 5 euros and only consists of tea & coffee, breads, some pastries and preserves. It was clean and functional with a safe for valuables in the wardrobe. The bathroom we had was tiny and there was no view from our room but it was comfortable and a useful place to stay without spending the hyped prices near San Marco. I rated 4 stars overall because of location and accessability.

Reaching
the hotel Giardinetto from the Railway Station of Venice
'Saint Lucia':
From the Railway station Saint Lucia, take the Motoscafo line 51, and get off
at the Lido station, after about 35 minutes. In Saint Lucia Station PAY
ATTENTIONS to people who stop you seeking to propose to you tours in Murano and
Burano Island or other accommodations in hotel near the railway station. Try to
convince you saying that the hotel where you are booked is distant, perhaps 40
km away, they try to make you confusing between the district of Lido in Venice
and the Lido of Jesolo (which is a city 20 Km far away). Please note that the
Lido is located about 10 minutes by boat from Saint Mark Square, while the from
railway station to Saint Mark Square it takes about 25 minutes. Clearly on all
the things they propose you they get committees. They are, usually, present
themselves as representatives of the Municipality of Venice. Say to them that
you have already prepaid the account of the hotel and that you are not
interested in the tour to Murano and Burano Islands. In the hotel will give you
all the informations to make tours organised by Travel Agencies.
Reaching
the hotel Giardinetto from Venice's Marco Polo Airpot -
(Tessera):
From airport take the Airport Shuttle service ALILAGUNA motorboat. The cost of
the ticket of 15.00 euros per person. After about 55 minutes navigation get off
at the Lido boat station (1 station before Saint Mark Square). The stop is
situated on the same Square, more or less opposite the Hotel Giardinetto. The
Motorboat Alilaguna part about every 40/50 minutes and most often coinciding
with the arrival of flights, considering the time required to get your
baggages. Tickets can be purchased in the stand Alilaguna located in the
arrivals section immediately after the check-point. PAY ATTENTIONS if
somebody propose to you to take a Taxi Motorboat, the cost is roughly
100.00/120.00 euros, do it only if you are in a hurry, since the water taxi
takes about 20 minutes less than Alilaguna. Do not take even the normal taxi or
bus to Venice as employing a very long time to arrive and the costs would in
any case be higher than Alilaguna, whereas you will be leaded up to Piazzale
Roma where you should take the boat to reach the centre of Venice. Keep in mind
that Venice is a city on water formed by numerous islands and the best way to
move is by water
Reaching the hotel Giardinetto from Treviso
Airport:
Treviso Airport is located about 25
km from Venice . The main Companies low-cost as Ryanair,
Wizzair, Easyjet, land in this airport. To reach Venice should
take the Shuttle Bus ATVO. The time taken depends on the
traffic conditions around 1 or 2 hours, if there is no traffic
even less. When you arrive at Piazzale Roma take the Motoscafo
51 and get off after about 35 minutes in Lido. If you arrive
in the evening or late at night, take the boat line NT (Line1
night service), get off in Lido after about 55 minutes. The
Hotel Giardinetto is located on the same Piazzale where the
boat stations are located.
Reaching the hotel Giardinetto by car:
Sorting out from the Highway follow
the signs to Venice. To reach Venice must cross a long bridge,
about 3 km, the Freedom Bridge, the speed limit is 90 km and
there is a speed control, so be careful. Towards the end of
the bridge keep the right and at the traffic light, turn right
and follow signs for the Ferry-Boat to the Lido, then turn
right again crossing a bridge and then cross a wide parking
area (the Tronchetto). The Ferry station is located at the end
of the carpark. PAY ATTENTION if someone tries to stop to
offer to park the car and do some tours, say that you have to
take the ferry and that you are not interested. The Ferry goes
directly to Lido, passing in front of Saint Mark Square
becoming a nice little cruise to Venice. At the Lido, leaving
Ferry, head on the right. After about 1.50 km arrive on the
main Square where the hotel Giardinetto is located. In Hotel
at check-in we give you the indication where to park your car.
The Ferry-Boat depart from Tronchetto to Lido about every 40
minutes until 23.00 and then again from 05.00 in winter. In
summer, the service continues throughout the night every hour.
