The hotel is located few streets away from Mestre train station, little hard to walk to as the pedestrian way is obstructed by several car parked on the pedestrian walk and for going up and down crossing the streets, it is not very comfortable but is not a big problem.
The hotel it seam to be just renovated and for this reason is nice, with a modern and elegant décor, I’ve only stayed 1 night as forced from a cruise company by delaying the arrival time and make me loosing last train, however I would definitely return to this hotel if I must go to Venice either if I would go again on a cruise departing from Venice;
Yes this hotel is saving you a lot of money instead going to Venice old city, and is offering a charming and comfortable accommodation, if you decide to spend few days before cruising you can stay here and take the train to go to Venice or Padova, are many trains all day to go and came back, is it also more convenient to go to the cruise terminal from this hotel by taxi rather than from S.Marco square or anywhere else staying in Venice.
Breakfast is good quality even for a 3 stars hotel with a little bit of everything, I cannot say any suggestions about the area as that night was awful fog weather and you couldn’t see anything around, we went out for a pizza nearby but I will suggest not to go there as it seams to be kind of balcanic’s manager and employee, felt little dangerous and we where the only guests at 10pm on Saturday night!!!!!!!!!, maybe it is better to ask at the hotel where to go instead to go where your feeling telling you to go………we paid 55eur per room and it was certainly a bargains price for what offered, the perfect deal.
Only some little disappointing matter do not let me give to them a 5 stars rating, but it’s a minor issue e not so important, like the volume of the TV set at 10 and very low for listening, the minibar was refurbished only with few bottles of water and 1 fanta and the shower box it is smaller that usual making difficulty to move inside the box, therefore as I said in advance are minor things and not to be worried about the quality of the accommodation.
