Common areas and rooms lack character
Hotel Villa Costanza is a 30-room, mid-range hotel in central Mestre, with easy access to Venice by public transport or car. There's a lot of money to be saved by staying outside the historical center, and, despite lacking character, this hotel is clean and functional with modern rooms. There's not much to see or do in the immediate area, but there's a restaurant and bar on-site, plus a quiet garden and plenty of parking. It's one of the most popular picks in Mestre, but it may be worth comparing rates with the Best Western Bologna Hotel - Mestre Station.

Scene
Clean, modern hotel with classic 19th-century touches
The mid-range Hotel Villa Costanza is housed in a yellow-painted 19th-century building with dark-red wooden shutters. Common areas are clean and modern, with tile floors and neutral walls, but classic touches, like the beamed ceilings, provide a reminder of the building's age. There's a TV area in the lobby with red leather armchairs and sofas, and free newspapers are on offer. A couple of lamps, coffee table books, and a glass-fronted cabinet of ornaments give a cozy, homey feel. Guests are a mixture of tourists and business travelers who are looking to save by staying outside the historical center of Venice.
Location
In central Mestre with easy access to Venice
The Hotel Villa Costanza is a little out of the way for those who've come to see Venice, but it's easy enough to get to the sights. The train and bus stations are a five-minute walk from the hotel, and both run regular services into Venice that take around 15 minutes. Venice's Marco Polo airport is only six miles away, and it's easy to drive to the hotel, where parking is available for a fee. The immediate area is residential and quiet, and there's very little open in the evenings.
Rooms
Plain and modern with neutral furnishings
Plain, clean, and modern, rooms at the Hotel Villa Costanza are very pleasant and a reasonable size, but there's nothing to get excited about. They all have free Wi-Fi, minibars, and flat-screen TVs. Expect wooden floors, beamed ceilings, and neutral soft furnishings. Tiled bathrooms have showers, while some of the Junior Suites have jetted tubs. The decor is very similar in all rooms, and they're all pretty quiet because of the location, but there can be some noise from the bar and lobby in ground-floor rooms.
Features
Modern restaurant and bar and a quiet garden
There's a nice mix of classic and contemporary in the bar area, which is just off the lobby and combines traditional wooden beams and modern bar stools. A pretty good continental breakfast is available for a fee and is served in the neutrally decorated restaurant. Ask at the front desk about free bike hire for an alternative way to get to know the area. There's a quiet garden with tables and chairs at the back of the hotel, as well as ample parking (also for a fee).
