Hotel Eraclea

We chose this hotel based on mostly positive guest reviews, but unfortunately we had to be disappointed in several ways. The first negative was immediately upon check-in, because even though it was stated on Booking that the languages spoken were English, German, Spanish, Italian, the lady at the reception answered almost all of our English questions in Italian, even though we said that we didn't understand, she still only spoke in Italian. Later in the bar and restaurant the experience was similar, the servers and waiters were only willing to communicate in Italian. We have regularly experienced that the receptionist or the waiter at the bar understood what we asked in English, but he simply refused to answer in English, only in Italian. From a hotel located in such a frequented location, this is quite embarrassing. We could not complain about the cleanliness of the room, it was cleaned every day, we received new towels several times during our stay, and the staff even folded the bedspread and our pajamas. The location of the hotel is excellent, there are plenty of restaurants and several grocery stores nearby, and the beach is a 3-minute walk away. In addition, the price includes an umbrella and two deckchairs, so you don't have to pay extra on the beach. The night life was a disappointment for us, the only nightclub in the area was closed, and the streets were usually completely empty by midnight. However, the biggest disappointment was the kitchen. You can basically live well with the buffet breakfast, although the selection is not very wide and they were always the same. However, the dinner was clearly not worth the price: the portions were very small, moreover, in most cases they were not very tasty, the fried meats were not seasoned, and I don't think they even had any salt. The dinner itself is a menu system, you can choose from five types of appetizers (including two types of soup) and five types of main course. Also, it's worth considering that breakfast is only available from 8 a.m., you can't go earlier. This cut back many of our planned programs, since by public transport Venice is approx. an hour and a half, by the time you get somewhere by train, you can almost come home. This is quite problematic, in other accommodations where we were previously, you could go to breakfast from 6 o'clock. Overall, the hotel was more pleasant than not, but we definitely didn't get what we expected.

If you want to stay in Jesolo for a day, a week or a month go to the Hotel Eraclea, don't even lose your time to check other hotels, book your place here. I went to this hotel for the first time with my parents around 20 years ago and when I want to go to Jesolo this hotel is still my choice. Is not easy find such a nice, clean, tidy hotel, and so close to the beach and all the touristic attractions. The staff is just amazing and the family management applied here make you feel at home. In these wall there are some of my best memory and I am looking forward to book my room for the next summer.

Good place, the Staff is friendly!
