Hotel Ducale - Favaro Veneto Mestre

6.0

Only one restaurant within 15 minutes walk. It was good. It is OK to stay there for an early flight out of Marco Polo airport. Otherwise the location has nothing to offer.

8.1

I recommend staying here if you want to visit Venice. I saw many tourists dragging luggage across the various bridges and canals of Venice and I was glad we had only a short bus ride from the airport to our hotel. Bus service was quite good from the hotel to Venice and back and cheap (1.50 Euro).

1.3

Hotel location not great. Looked good in photos etc, and was neaar the Airport in Venice, as we waanted, but arriving at 9.30p.m. and no place at all to eat, unless you drove for miles. Room small, dark, oldfashioned, nothing to redeem it. Bathroom, terrible. I was sorry I booked it. I had booked 9 hotels for our trip and this was the worst.....on the first night, but it got better, as we moved along!

9.2

Nice hotel, well communicated by bus from the train station, a little far though but so close to the airport that it is worth it. Very good breakfast with a great choice of food, not only the continental kind of breakfast offered in other places. It is close to a little mall if you want to go shopping before going back home. They have internet service available for the guests in the lobby.

Returned from cruise, 1 nt needed prior to intl flight. Location great for airport departure, but not for local dining. Surrondings questionable.Only one local restaurant good. Hotel breakfast fantastic, great coffee. Quoted free transfer on confirmation, but had to pay 10.00euro for transportation on Sunday to airport. One staff member said free, second staff member said the 9am departure free, and upon checking out, told charges of 5 euro ea applies.

9.6

Hotel was great and what we expected. Efficient reception, helpful staff, clean facility, excellent breakfast included in price. Our only complain was very poor directions given on our booking confirmation form. Get specific directions ahead of time by using mapquest or calling resort, it will save you an hour or more.

7.7

We were disappointed that they charged us $32 for a 5 min cab ride to the airport. It was their own shuttle which was free during the day but we had to leave the hotel at 5:30 AM for an early flight and there were no other choices at that hour. Also we discovered ,too late, there were 3 couples who went at the same time but they never offered to take 2 couples in one trip. They took advantage of the situation. The staff was friendly and helpful. The breakfast was meager. There is a regular bus that stops right at the hotel and goes directly to the main bus,water bus and train terminal in Venice. For about $10 you can ride the buses and water bus on the grand canal all day, on and off.

8.1

Very nice and professional staff. The room was comfortable and the breakfast good. Transfer to Treviso Airport very expensive (€ 60).

1.4

This was a terribly disappointing end to our trip and was the worst hotel we have ever booked through Venere. It was not helped by the fact that the main reason we booked it was because they had a shuttle bus to the airport but on arrival we were told that this did not start operating until 9.00am, and therefore was too late to get us to the airport for our flight. The room was small, dark and noisey, sitting above a bar and two main roads. The shower in the bathroom also had mould.We were told there weren't any other rooms but it felt more like because we perhaps hadn't paid the full price we weren't getting one. The only consolation was that there was a decent bus service back to Venice so we were able to escape this dreadful place for the evening. There was a bus to the airport but they even gave us the wrong times for that in the morning - thankfully by then we had allowed for this and managed to catch one. No positives for this hotel at all.

9.2

We enjoyed our stay here. It is very close to the airport, in fact we walked there and from there we took a boat taxi to Venice. It is a great place to stay to see Venice because it is close and much cheaper than staying in Venice. The breakfast was also amazing!

9.6

We stayed one night due to the very early departure from Marco Polo airport.

7.0

the hotel is nice, but it locate under a floor of old building

7.3

Déçu du non fonctionnement de la climatisation,d'ou obligation de dormir la fenêtre entr'ouverte,(de plus l'armoire empêche d'ouvrir correctement la fenêtre)donc bruits de l'exterieur.

9.4

Very good location, clean and calm. Unfortunatelly a hudge japaneese group took a lot of space in breakfast room.

8.1

Hotel impressed me how friendly and helpful the staff was. Good service. Nice location.

5.9

The hotel is in a good location if you want to visit Venice via bus. There is a bus stop very close to the hotel, which is very easy to find. However, if it was not for the hotel's restaurant (which we enjoyed), there would not be many restaurant options.

9.3

We have stayed at the Ducale twice and have been very satisfied on both occasions. It is so close to the airport and the staff are very friendly and helpful. This stay we had a very early morning flight and, though it was expensive, the hotel van and driver were available to get us to the airport by 5:30 AM. This was greatly appreciated. The bus to and from Venice is very convenient making the stay more palatable as Favaro Veneto iteself is not an attractive or interesting place to stay. However, we found good food in local restaurants and the hotel restaurant and our room was more than adequate, clean and comfortable. Would have appreciated an English channel (CNN, SKY, etc.).
