We've stayed at Hotel Vivit several times over the years, and it was our first choice when we returned to Venice in September. The hotel is conveniently located in the heart of Mestre, on Piazza Ferretto. The hotel is well-maintained, with pleasant, clean rooms, spacious and modern bathrooms, extremely helpful and polite staff, and an excellent breakfast. The hotel is a great place to stay when visiting Venice; the bus/tram stop is only a 5-minute walk away, and it takes 10 - 15 minutes to get to Piazzale Roma in Venice. Ca'Mestre, a large retail centre, is close, as are several cafes and restaurants.
We strongly recommend hotel Al Vivit.
