A contemporary hotel in a modern part of Venice
Even from the outside, Elite Hotel has a strikingly modern presence, which flows through to the public spaces and some of the guest rooms.
The hotel is in the Mestre neighbourhood, across the Liberty Bridge in a more modern part of the city. It’s easy to get to Venice’s top sights by public transport, although lingering in this district will also allow you to get to know more about the Venice of the here and now. Stop for coffee in Ferretto Square or peek into the M9 museum which reveals more about Italy over the past hundred years.
At the hotel’s Fox Food & Snacks, you can order a quick lunch or dinner, and in the summer, you can eat outside on the terrace. The hotel’s spa is complete with an indoor pool, Finnish sauna, Turkish bath, and relaxation area—planning a treatment on your last day is a smart move to soothe any weary limbs from exploring the beautiful streets of Venice.
Some of the rooms are functional, and others have mood lighting and bathrooms encased in glass for the not-so-shy traveller. Either way, they feature must-haves of a modern hotel, such as Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and flatscreen TVs.

Find out more about Mestre
In Mestre, city energy mixes with residential calm to create a Venetian suburb like no other. Over on the mainland, away from the city centre crowds, Mestre’s the gateway to the lagoon, offering easy access to Venice’s top sights and attractions.
Together with Carpenedo, Marghera, Favaro Veneto, Chirignago, Zelarino, and Tessera, Mestre forms part of the Greater Venice area. However, as it was only incorporated into Venice in the 1920s, it still has its own independent character. The modern town feels very different to the city’s historic centre.
Mestre has emerged as a top destination for savvy travellers exploring Venice, thanks to its strategic location and affordable transportation options. Mestre hotels are often cheaper than city centre alternatives, leaving you with more to spend on one-of-a-kind experiences, like those iconic gondola rides along the Grand Canal.
But Mestre’s more than just a base. It’s got a lively nightlife scene, cute shopping streets, and a vibrant cultural atmosphere waiting to be explored. From charming cafes to busy markets, Mestre offers a taste of the authentic lifestyle of Italy beyond the tourist crowds of Venice.
