THE Hotel \\\Alla Giustizia\\\" in Mestre - Venice is ideally located, at only 700 metres from the railways station and 50 metres from the beginning of the by-pass exit that links various motorways and only 6 Km from Marco Polo, the international airport. It is an ideal accommodation for clients who, either for business or leisure reasons, wish to stay close to Venice considering how quick and easy is to step into Venice Island from the Hotel: it is in fact reachable by regular bus service (every ten minutes, bus stop in front of Hotel), or by train from Mestre station in few minutes! The quite spacious Hotel hall, with its simple and cosy style, makes the ideal atmosphere for the warm and friendly welcome the family running the hotel will be pleased to provide each guest, where public areas find a clever location: a comfortable relaxing corner is suitable both for waiting and for spending some time reading a book or a magazine, while the breakfast room is just behind the reception desk to keep every needs satisfaction as simple as possible for the guests. Just beside the Hotel, the locally well known restaurant Alla Amelia, serves refined typically Italian food."
Advantages: Well-maintained, cheaper than central Venice, goos bus links, comfortable, spacious Disadvantages: Variable service, not a very picturesque location
...I've just come back from a three night stay in this hotel, which is situatued in Mestre - a sort of suburb near Venice. Having never been to Venice, I really wanted to visit, but travelling with four meant hotel rooms are not cheap and hotel rooms in Venice are especially not cheap. So this hotel provided an excellent solution - a few kilometres outside Venice itself makes all the difference to affordability, and clearly Mestre is working on this principle as there are a lot of hotels there.
ROOM
This one, the Ambasciatori, is four star, and we stayed in what they call a suite. First point - it's not! It is a nice large executive double with a queen sized bed and a walk in wardrobe but it does not have a separate sitting room, so in my book it is not a suite. It has a sitting area in the room separated from the bed by a lattice...

Advantages: Cheap and cheerful Disadvantages: A short bus ride from Venice proper
...We booked a trip to Venice on a whim and a bit of a last minute whim at that. There were three of us travelling which is not necessarily the best number for accommodation, we were on a budget, and we were going in July, peak tourist season. In other words, we had to take what we could get. Venice has a huge number of accommodations but they do get booked up quickly and those that are left, one supposes, must either be hideously expensive or have something wrong with them. For this reason, we ended up at the Delfino which looked like a very reasonably 3* place that didn?t cost the earth.
The hotel is in Mestre which is a suburb just across the water from Venice, and as such is served by taxis and buses as well as a train station (there are no cars or other road-requiring vehicles on the main island because there are no roads...

Advantages: Central, quiet, unusual charm Disadvantages: no lift
...I like to stay in hotels with a difference. Hotel Morandi alla Crocetta in its pervious life was a former convent dating back to 1511. Today it is a three star hotel owned by an English lady with 11 air-conditioned rooms each of which are different. The feel of the former convent is still evident in the restored frescos and arches dating back to the 16th Century. One of the rooms being a former prayer room - I don’t know whether I would like to stay in that room as I would have to be feeling very saintly and on my own.
Situated in a very quiet back street near the Accademia and the centre of Florence there is little to tell from the outside of the building that a hotel lies behind it’s facade except for a clue in the small brass plaque on the wall. Once inside the building, a sign directs you up a flight of red...
