A practical Venice stay with pool time
If you want Venice within reach, but prefer a more practical base on the mainland, this hotel’s worth a look. Set in Mestre, it’s handy for road links, Venice Marco Polo Airport and transport into Venice, where canals, bridges and gondolas are ready to steal the whole show.
The hotel has a generous outdoor area with a swimming pool and garden, which is a lovely perk after a day of exploring the lagoon city. There’s also a fitness area, lounge bar, restaurant and meeting facilities, giving it that easy Novotel mix of city break and downtime.
Meals are covered by the Italian-cuisine restaurant, with a lounge bar for drinks and lighter moments in between. Mestre also has local restaurants nearby, while Venice is the place for cicchetti, spritz stops and waterside dinners. Stay here and you can pair sightseeing drama with a proper poolside pause.

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.
