Hotel Centrale  

Excellent location for a short city trip in Venice, with all bus stations just steps away from the hotel. Near by bars and restaurants are nice. The staff is nice and willing to help with all information you need. It is probably among the best deals that you can find on the net if you are looking for a low price - good location - decent accommodation.

This hotel needs to be renovated asap. The old wooden boards placed on the lower half of the walls mid be nice before 20-30 years but now they look dirty. If you plan to stay here out of the summer period bring some slippers with you so you can walk on the cold ceramic tiles which are placed all over the room and the bath. The bathroom had no bathtub or shower cabin, only a sink in the floor and some pvc curtains, so be careful with the water it may flооd the room.

The only positive thing about this hotel is its location - bus stops are close to the hotel and parking garage (for fee) is not very far..

The hotel was neglected. Very neglected. Dirty and old carpets, dirty walls. Not a nice view. BUT: our room was full of bugs (I guess it were cockroaches). We even bought an insecticide... I think it was the worst hotel I stayed in.

Our stay at this hotel was pleasant. Our quadruple room was clean and comfortable. The bus stop for Venice is across the street and I recommend that bus tickets are bought at the small newsagency next to the entrance of the hotel as they are a lot cheaper. Actually throughout Italy and Croatia it is cheaper to purchase tickets at newstands rather than from the bus driver.

Our gps took us past the hotel and into a complex further down with a boom gate. It was frustrating to return to the hotel, due to all the one way streets. In hindsight we should have familiarised ourselves better with the location on street view rather than rely upon a gps. The only down side to our room was that the bathroom tap was broken but we managed. We didn't try the tv, so can't comment about availability of channels. I didn't sleep well once the traffic began- and it was early and noisy. Parking isn't on site. Its about a 8-10 minute walk away and is in a complex called 'garageeuropa' Mestre which you can google to see the location (totally recommend). Reception told us that it was 10 euro a day, but the complex also took an extra 2 euro per day for tax. The hotel does not have a drop of point outside for people travelling by car to unload. Luckily there was no traffic on the side street when we unloaded and this made it stress free. When we left, we were lucky to find a vacant parking bay that was reserved for the customers of a nearby bank opposite (close to the post office). We left our older children with the luggage in the foyer as the parking complex is too far to travel with luggage. I feel that a parking bay should be created directly infront of the hotel for people travelling with a car for drop off and pickup.

Value for money

Bad breakfast staff not very helpsome

The hotel was in a perfect condition and excellent located. The staff was very good with us and they helped us with everything we asked. The bus stop was just in front of the hotel and took 15 min to the center of Venice.

In the city

Very bad and old bed. Not good for my back. Not conford at all

the position

breakfast

Grubby carpets in corridors breakfast is very minimal and not worth paying extra for. Location is good and very near a supermarket. Hotel in general is a little tired but staff were helpful and was a good base for one night before catching our cruise when accommodation in Venice was at a premium.

Bathroom, corridors and room decor a bit tired.

Very nice room, very clean, great staff, very helpful. Despite being just next to a bus stop to and from Venice, the room was quiet and we had a couple nice nights of sleep. The beds were large and comfortable. As an example of the helpfulness of the staff, we arrived early (10h30) and asked if we could leave our stuff and check in later, as we wanted to leave for Venice; the receptionist offered to make the check in immediately, as our room was already free, even if it was way before the regular check-in time.

Decent location and I guess that is the reason of its very existence. Everything else is not worth mentioning.

The staff, the toilet, the breakfast........everything is pathetic. I do not want to waste time reviewing

Location, cleaness, big rooms.

The breakfast was very poor!!! There were only sweet things served, and no cheese, no salami, no tomatos or other salats, that are usually served in every hotel in Italy for breakfast.

Easy access to Venice & economical

I was satisfied eith all aspects.
