Prior to arrival the hotel staff were easily contactable by email and happily organised a private transfer to ans from the airport. On arrival they were very friendly and gave us all of the information required throughout our stay. It seemed we were the only English guests in the hotel and possibly the whole of Lido di Jesolo! All staff members and the owners understood and spoke very good English whilst we fumbled our way through Italian greetings as best we could! Accomodation: We booked 4 rooms, 1 was kindly upgraded. The 2 Smart rooms were on the top floor and of a good size, the ceiling height was low in areas but this did not affect our use. The air conditioning units were very good and kept the rooms cool throughout our stay. The modern double rooms were slightly bigger with a more neutral decor and electric shutters to block the light and sun rays from the balcony. All rooms were fully equipped with a fridge and safe for use, bathrooms had good showers in spacious cubical. Different sized towels, soap and the welcome addition of a beach towel was so useful! The housekeepers were very friendly and kept the rooms beautifully clean everyday. The balconies all had table and chairs with an ash tray and a washing line with pegs. We had everything we needed in the rooms. Food: We stayed half board. Breakfast had a great buffet selection for all preferences. Constantly replenished range of bread, pastries, cakes, ham, cheese, yogurt, fresh & dried fruit, cereals, preserves, scrambles eggs & bacon. Dinner was ordered on a menu the night before each meal. The buffet starter offered fresh salad, roasted vegetables, bread, cheese, ham and a different selection of cooked foods e.g. Arancini, garlic bread, fish, savoury rice, potato salad. The first main course was pre-ordered from 4 options of pasta, risotto, soup, yogurt, juice dishes. The second main course was also a choice of 4 usually meat and fish dishes with a vegetable or potato side. All dishes were perfect portion sizes, tasty and often something that we hadn't tried before but we enjoyed! Dessert was verbally offered, always a choice of ice cream or fruit and 2 other options e.g. Tiramsu, creme caramel, chocolate pudding, chocolate salami, profiterole, fruit tart. Such a great idea- Order a bottle of wine for dinner and if you don't finish it will be chilled and back on the table ready for your next meal. Beach: The hotel has recently had to charge for sunbeds and umbrellas on the beach but still keep the prices lower than other hotels. The beach was just a short walk across the road, we were able to stop at the mini market for snacks and drinks on our way. The sunbeds were close to toilets, showers and snack bars so a perfect place to stay the whole day. The beach had a volley ball net, boules area, slide pedalos and banana boat rides available with a 'beer hub' cart moving up and down the sea line throughout the day offering refreshments. The sea was calm, clear and very slight tidal movements, it felt very safe with plenty of space for inflatables and ball games. Lido di Jesolo: The hotel was seconds away from the main street with shops, restaurants & bars and a short walk to Piazza Bresica. There was plenty to see and do during the day and night. Visit Venetian Islands: The Hotel Staff kindly informed is the best way to travel to Venice. We were advised to go to the tourist information centre to purchase tickets. The bus stop outside went directly to Punta Sabbioni where we caught a boat to Venice and another day to Burano. The public transport was easy to use. August was a hot month to visit and we had an amazing time. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hotel Toledo, the location, rooms and people really enhanced our stay. The air conditioning was good quality and was present in the dining room, bar and lounge keeping the air as cool as possible. The lift was efficient and a welcome break from the stairs at times. There was a mix of families and couples during our stay of different ages. Hotel Toledo is a lovely family ran hotel with something for everyone. We would happily visit again 😀
