Hotel Montepiana

Staff was corteous and the room was cleaned daily

While it was reasonably priced and conveniently located near the train station (making it an easy trip by train for 1.5 euro to Venice Santa Lucia), my wife and daughter felt the property was a bit out dated. You could feel the springs in the mattress and I think they need to either replace them or at a minimum add a pillow topper to provide more cushion. I had to agreed with them about the mattresses being a tad uncomfortable but once you went to sleep it I had a solid night of sleep. Not that we spend much time in the room since we were mostly exploring the Venezia island, but the flat screen TV was only 24” and also could use an update to something with smart app capability and offer casting from a device. There were cable channels, but nothing in English so we mostly relied on our personal phones for in room entertainment. The shower was a typical small European shower that feels like you are showering in a telephone booth with very little wiggle room. Again, the ladies complained that they could not bend down to shave their legs in the tight space and I wonder how a typically overweight American tourist could even use these tight shower spaces. My wife commented that none of the European hotels have wash cloths, so this one was the same although it did have a bidet (that we didn’t use). A positive was that the hotel provided us with some ice cubes, another missing amenity that most American hotels always provide and is missing in Europe. The location was very nice.

Positive: Conveniently close (we hauled our luggage) to the Trenitalia station that connects to Trieste (cruise ship port). A variety of small restaurants within walking distance in case you have a late flight arrival. Negative: you climb stairs from the street level to the lobby level. From the lobby, there are more levels to climb to your room. No elevator, in case you are hauling your luggage yourself.

Hotel Montepiana in Mestre is a quaint little Italian hotel very conveniently situated for a day trip to Venice. Not at all modern, but very well presented and clean. The room for 3 adults was smallish but met our needs for the overnight stay and the airconditioning was a blessing. The staff were very friendly, informative and accommodating given we had arrived early but could leave our vehicle parked on site whilst we travelled to Venice for the day. The train station, as others have stated, was about a 10 minute walk away for the ride to Venice. For just an overnight stay and the convenience to get to Venice, this property is very suitable.

We just needed a quiet and clean place to sleep before a flight in the morning. This hotel was a good solution. Very basic, but clean, quiet and not too expansive. The location is safe and the nearby restaurant Antica Hostaria Dante Alighieri was a great surprise.

Amazing staff! Very helpful, courteous & knowledgeable about train travel to Venice and local restaurants. Room was spacious, comfortable & air conditioned.

Nice and quite

Nice location to travel to Venice centre by train. Staff is wonderful and really helpful. Room is neat and clean.

The hotel decor was dated and there was no elevator. Parking was available but very difficult to access. Limited restaurants nearby. Convenient for access to train to Venice.

Close to train station. Nice and helpful staff

Price is right, location is about 10 minute walk from train station. Area is quiet and safe. Breakfast is great at 6 or 7 Euros (I can't remember which). Hotel is a little older with no elevator but they keep it very clean. What sets this hotel apart is the friendly staff. They are willing to help in anyway possible. They speak great English too. They accomidated us on a few travel issues we had that they didn't have to. They just said, "we understand these things happen when you travel and if we can help, we will". I would stay here again without a second thought!

We enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The train station to Venice was conveniently close and there were a few dining options in the area. Our room was clean when we first arrived. The only con were the beds - they were a bit too stiff. However, the staff provided excellent service. Overall, a great experience!

The staff was so nice and helpful to answer all the questions and show us all the best tips around the area! Excellent!

Overall the stay is nice, really welcoming staff. Location is good and quite with easy public transport to get around.

A very old, shabby hotel. Most of the employees were very sweet which is why I am rating this stay as high as I am. I do not understand how the average score is >8. This place was very depressing.

Staff are warm and welcoming. Parking was easy and walk to train and bus station very convenient. Rooms are basic and so is the breakfast. No protein, so be aware. Also no lift (elevator). Value for price was very good. Stayed five days. Was worth it.

The place was clean and in a good location to transportation. Staff was excellent and breakfast was good. Would recommend this place to travellers to Venice. Understanding that it is not a 5 star hotel.

The place was very clean and the bed was comfortable...at least, so far as I know. I slept really well, anyway. Staff were friendly. Air conditioning worked great.

Not in a crowded area. Nice and quiet. Host woke up at 4 AM to check us out and help us get a taxi for our early flight.

The staff were very friendly and helpful, the accommodations were clean and well kept, and had all the facilities we needed. We had the continental breakfast while we were there which was lovely.
