Elite Hotel & Spa

The location was a 5 minute walk from the shuttle to Venice. It is worth noting that shuttle seats are few and most people stand for the 20 minute ride. Not for the elderly or the tired...We loved the on-site parking and the freedom it gave us to drive into Venice when preferred. Breakfast was nice. Comfortable and contemporary decor. Spacious safe.

Out of 7 different places we stayed in Italy, this was the most modern and probably typical of modern hotels. It was nice to have a break from "old" style Italy and have a good bed with an electronic key card. The included breakfast set the benchmark for all of our stays in Italy, which was great. This hotel isn't in Venice proper, therefore you pay less and it is easy to get to Venice via the tram - 15 mins and only about 3-5 minute walk to the tram stop from the hotel. Mestre is not the most attractive area, but if you are using it just for a base for Venice, it is fine.

I liked the location, the breakfast, the SPA area, the staff. The staff was very helpful ready to answer our questions, the room was cleaned daily and the SPA wasn't crowded in the first part of the day when we were allowed to enter having a child with us (children are allowed at the SPA area only between 9 - 13:00).

Pool was good.
