Liked: Room comfort
This hotel is really far from the city, in vaporetto is like a 15 min ride to the St. Mark Plaza. But is really nice and relaxing place away from the noisy city. when we got there they inform us the bar was open til 12 but on two separate occasions they told us they were close and it was like 8pm. The men in charge (manager I assume) was really nice but the lady in the 'cafe' was really mean and rude towards her own employees which I really dislike. She yelled at them in front of us. The property has a really big front and side patios to walk, the rooms are small and tight and the shower is the smallest that I have experienced in Italy I had to open the door to soap my feet. Breakfast was nice better than most places.

Was a very quiet island; no restaurant at the hotel was a problem. Very helpful staff; however, was confusing to get to and from Venice with the water buses (vaporetto).

Venice
Overall enjoyed my stay, particularly local area was stunningly beautiful, it was my first trip to Venice. As the hotel is in an island, getting to and from the city late night could be tricky. Hotel provided a boat service on two nights, that was really helpful. Gentleman at the desk in nighttime was extremely pleasant and willing to help us . My single room was too small, access to tea,coffee and hot water was limited. Breakfast was only served after 8am, had to miss breakfast when I had to leave early.

quiet location
Easy boat ride from airport/cruise terminal. Location quiet location (awake to birds singing and green grass, pesky mosquitoes too) on another island (short pubic boat ride to Venice proper) that houses a marinara and a kayaking outfit where you can kayak the canals or bay (recommended). Room was nice, clean, large bathroom with show and tub (jacuzzi portion of tub inop). Bed was comfortable. On sight restaurant and bar. Food and price was good. Mosquito issue in restaurant, as doors are kept open. Nice out door seating for both bar and restaurant, breeze keeps mosquitoes away. Easy check in, check out. Only one clerk, could take a few minutes if busy. Clerk provided a great map and description of public ferry system!

Nice hotel in a calm environment. Easy to get to everywhere if you buy the pass for the ACTV boats. Internet is not that fast and connection stops quite often. Breakfast are good but a bit expensive for what you get. 9 Euros

Excellent Service!
Only stayed here for one night. Was meant to arrive in the afternoon, but my flight was diverted due to a lightening storm and I didn't arrive until 9pm. Staff were great - I rang earlier to let them know I was delayed and my estimated arrival. Once I got there, I was quickly checked in and directed to the restaurant for a late dinner. The room I booked was simple, but very clean and comfortable. As the hotel is located on Certosa it has a very exclusive feel and plenty of grounds to wander round.

I loved where the hotel was located, it was near beautiful scenery and even more beautiful yachts! The receptionist was very accomdating and super friendly. He walked through how the boats worked on the island which had me at ease when I traveled later in the night.

Nice island stay
The hotel offers serene surroundings of a laid back island. The way to the hotel from the nearest boat stop is beautiful especially when you cross a walking bridge over the sea. Restaurant serves limited options and for limited timing. In fact reception desk also operates for a limited timing. The transport to the hotel is difficult at night when you are using public transport. The lawns are not well maintained. There is no room service.

Space to recharge
After years of staying in dirty, overpriced hotels in Venice itself, I decided to try something different. I gravitated towards Certosa Hotel for its high ratings and interesting location and I must say that it exceeded all my expectations. Isola la Certosa is about a 5-minute boat ride from the nearest stop in Venice proper (and about 10-15 minutes from San Marco). Though it may sound like an annoyance, having this little buffer is something that I welcomed. Venice itself is a beautiful place, but overwhelming to say the least. Eventually, you will tire of constant crowds, knickknack stands, and pizzerias blocking you at every turn. Returning in the evening to an island that has nothing but your hotel, its restaurant+cafe, and a nature preserve is a good way to reset yourself for the next day. Boats run very frequently and, when they aren't running due to scheduling or excessive fog, the hotel has a free shuttle service to near the Sant'Elena stop in Venice.

Outrageous!
After spending over an hour 'sailing' to this '3 star' hotel from the train station at 1 am, I was horrified to discover a room smaller than a penitentiary cell, with no towels, no heating, no hot water and not even toiletries. Given the late hour there wasn't anyone to talk to since reception desk was closed. I had a room booked for few nights, however I took off the next morning without looking back. This experience will hunt me for a while.

Nice to get away from venice's hustle and bustle. A bit of a ride but I loved the boat rides to and from the hotel. Super friendly and efficient staff. To take vaporetto 4.1, go out the train station, walk to the left towards the river. 4.1 is located there, not towards the right with all the others. The ticket booth for 3 day tickets is on the square to the left as you exit the train station.
