We had a wonderful family time and fabulous experience! My husband and I grew up on this beach . . . we had friends and family with us - who also had childhood memories of Capitola, as well. The Hotel is run well, rooms are old - BUT clean and it's all part of the charm! Charming is Capitola by... More

We booked a last-minute trip to Capitola, and chose the Venetian Hotel for its location (and to say that we'd "stayed at that place in the pictures"). We knew from reviews that the rooms would be different from what we're familiar with in a standard hotel (hence the "funky"). We stayed in Room 141, lower level, end room next to... More

We stayed in room 113 (low ceilings, sleeps 8) and it was perfect for our trip! With our young children having a bathroom so close to the beach was a necessity. It made it possible for us to all enjoy the trip. Capitola is fantastic and being able to stay in the famous Venetians was wonderful. It is not luxurious,... More

We were a group of four adults, one with dietary needs that required kitchen facilities, one with a taste for luxury and my husband and I. We stayed in the end unit visible in the picture and loved it! The property was built in the 1920's, and was in good shape for a building that age. It is located in... More

We were very pleased. The location and view were excellent! I wanted a place where we could park and walk everywhere without having to drive and we did just that. We ate, shopped and took our 8 month old to the beach for the first time. We slept with the windows open and the noise was not a problem.

My sweetheart brought me here for a last minute getaway. He called and booked the room on a Saturday (in March) around 5:00PM and we arrived around 6:30PM. The check in process was very speedy and I think we snagged the last parking spot. Our room was the cutest! There was a kitchen with a stove and dishes, a quaint... More

First off, the location is incredible! Most reviewers have thouroughly described this, so I don't feel the need to. The view was beautiful; yes, there's a roof, but who cares? The room was fine. It was two nights, so there was no need for cooking/dine-in, so the kitchen was suitable. We had three beds for the three of us, so... More

We have stayed at this hotel many times. It has a perfect location. There are rooms with little kitchens and there is also parking. It is always disappointing though. For example our sheets didn't quite fit our bed so the fitted sheet would come untucked constantly. The woman at the front desk was not at all interested in helping us... More

I was here last November, 2012...and had never been to Capitola...even though I lived in the bay area in the 80's....I can't believe I missed it...but came back for a visit and decided to check it out..and so glad I did! Just loved the Venetian...had a very large room....looking out at the ocean..just what I wanted and needed! As others... More
