First of all you should know that: - The bus to Venice is almost always crowded (and hot in summer), specially in the early morning. It takes 20 min. to get to the island. - Marghera (which is much better than Mestre if you have to choose) is a middle to low class residential (and safe) neighborhood and there is... more

A great little hotel just outside of venice. Stayed there only for one night but it was enough to see that rooms are clean and new/renovated, excellent shower (with hydromassage!!!), very welcoming and helpful staff and a private parking for guests. Hotel is 15-20 minutes from Venice (by bus) and there's a bus station just outside the hotel, train station... more

My friend and I had a nice stay at the Hotel Villa Adele. The staff was courteous and pleasant during our stay. The staff helped us with directions around Venice as well as the bus schedule to and from the Grand Canal. They also assisted us with our train schedule concerning our venture from Venice to Rome and the return... more

We got off the train in Mestre and followed the map & instructions provided by the hotel. They were right on. Just make sure you stay in the tunnel crossing under the tracks and go the opposite direction from the Mestre train station. You'll end up on the Marghera side of the tracks. The walk is safe, quick & easy.... more

Booked through Octopustravel.com. The hotel is outside of Venice but about 10 mins to Venice proper. Note that it is rather far from San Marco square and the Rialto bridge but that was OK with us as we didn't mind the walk. The hotel's service was very good. The staff in the morning spoke English at a reasonable level. The... more

We stayed in Villa Adele for 2 nights. One advantage is that one can chat with Hotel staff on skype.So we had all the info when we reached. For visitors from India who are on their own this was great help. If one is traveling by train than should get down at Mestre station . From station it is walking... more

We are not your average tourists . We wake early, explore and settle early in the evening, however this didn't bother the hotel, a 05.00 need for a breathe of italian air received a " buon guionorno"- I apologise for my poor italian. The hotel was wonderful. Small but clean & well appointed room. Excellent en suite. Friendly & helpful... more

We stayed here for 3 nights and this place far exceeded our expectations. All the staff were super friendly, nice and very helpful . The breakfasts were lovely with coffee "to die for" and I found myself ordering 2 cappacinos every morning as they were so delicious! At first I was concerned about not staying on Venice Island itself and... more
