“Nice place to stay in Venice”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 December 2011
1
person found this review helpful

I have stayed in Venice for 3days at the end of November and i found the hotel clean and quiet. the rooms are clean and have nice bathrooms. the breakfast is quite good and its till 10:00. The stuff are very helpful and try to do their best for you. The BAD thing is the internet is not free as compared to the surrounding hotels of the same star and the heating system was not working at all in my room and i was freezing and they couldn't even fix it. the decorations are nice but the hotel is old. the downtown is 10-15minutes walking from the hotel and the old city center of Venice can be reached by taking the bus from station behind the hotel and it will take you like 15minutes to reach there. for the arrival from airport, there is a bus stop in front of the hotel directly so you don't have to walk alot. overall its a nice place to save money and be in the middle position between downtown and Venice island.

Room Tip: room 21 has a very bad A/C unit

“Venice accomodation”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 October 2011

This hotel is in Mestre, near Venice. The location is very good for visiting Venice: the bus station is very close to the hotel, in 10 minutes you are in Venice.
The rooms are big and nice. They also have a parking lot.

“Excelent choice for staying in Venice”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 September 2011

This hotel isn't exactly in Venice. It's in Mestre nearby Venice. However, it's the best choice 'cause every hotel in Venice is too expensive, no matter the season. The hotel is located near to a bus stop where you can get a ride to Venice (about 15-20 min) and the cost is low (€ 1,20).
The neighborhood is quite and clean as well as the hotel. Although the breakfast is included, maybe you'd rather eat a little more... Good news, there are some grocery stores next to the bus stop so you could get some provisions before arriving to Venice... it's up to you!

By the other hand, this hotel has flaws: There is not elevators, so you must go upstairs carrying with your heavy luggages.

“Average Hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 March 2011

person found this review helpful

Cleanliness & rooms - The hotel is very clean and quiet. The rooms are a good size and are cleaned every day. Towels are changed every day as well. Room decor is outdated but room was very cozy with heating which you can control. Unfortunately there were only 2 electric plugs one for the fridge and one in the bathroom.

Service - Very good. Staff spoke English and were helpful when we asked for information. They also gave us an electrical adapter to use for our whole stay. The breakfast was between 7 and 10 and it was very good and abundant. Everything was freshly made. We checked out early at around 8 am on the last day and went back for the luggages at around 1pm

Location - There is a bus stop just outside the hotel where you can get a bus to Mestre centre and the train station. Behind the hotel there is another bus stop where you can get a bus to Venice Piazzale Roma every 10 mins. Buses are less frequent at night and if you're staying for Carnival it would be ideal to book early and find a central hotel in Venice and not in Mestre, as it will take you about an hour to reach Mestre (get a water bus from Piazza San Marco or Rialto to Piazzale Roma and then a bus to Mestre). On the other hand, Mestre is ideal if you want to do some shopping (H&M, Benetton, Clarks etc) and if you want to travel to other cities such as Verona.

In terms of value, we paid 360 euros for 4 nights for 2 persons. Considering that it was Carnival, it was quite cheap.

“Great location for Venice with free car parking”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 October 2010
1
person found this review helpful

Very good value at circa €75 for a double. Free parking, and a bus at five minutes walking will take you to Venice in less than 10 minutes at a cost of €1.20. You can also take a water bus for the same cost, and the Hotel will advise where you need to go for this.
Staff pleasant and helpful, and both hotel and rooms were all very clean. Similar accomodation in Venice would cost €140, plus a further possible €25 for car parking (no point in having a car in Venice, as it is just becomes a liability). Breakfast was as good as we had received in far more expensive hotels, and overall, I would have no negatives in relation to this hotel.
Beware of scams in restaurants: Sometimes, they will place an additional dish on the table, but insist it be removed, otherwise you will find it on your bill!! Sometimes they say
'' This is for the table '', and proceed to invoice you for same. Also be aware that a lot of restaurants will charge you €2 per person to sit down (this is allegedly for bread, but consists of factory bread sticks which you wouldnt even eat!!) They will also charge 12.5% for service, so a simple cheap lunch (sandwich/drink or similar) will set you back
€15 per person. Always ask about cover charge and service, as many of them do not charge it. We had an excellent evening meal at the Canal Grande restaurant (beside Rialto Bridge with our table directly overlooking all the activity on the canal). The food was very adequate, the staff entertaining, and the tourist menu for 2 courses and a glass of prosecco, was only €14 per person. We ordered further wine, desserts, drinks etc., but were not under any pressure to do so. Also a very good coffee stop just up past the
''Bridge of Sighs'', where none of the cover or service charges apply.
