This was a very convenient and pleasant hotel for out trip to Venice. The staff were all welcoming, delightful and all spoke English. We were reliant on public transport so the direct bus outside the hotel to Venice ( Piazzale Roma) was perfect for our needs. We were also able to buy our Vaporetto tickets at the hotel which saved a lot of queuing and hassle. We were also able to explore Mestre city centre from our base. There is a bus running once an hour from the stop outside hotel to the train station. We took a taxi from Mestre station to the hotel for convenience as no bus was available at that time.
