The location of this hotel is good. There is a bus stop a few metres from the hotel.The train station is within walking distance as is the town of Mestre. It is a great little town to shop and walk around. The management of this hotel have little or no patience. There was no hot water in the rooms to... more

The hotel is far away from everything (including Mestre), it was a whole adventure to get there from Marco Polo Airport, but I won't get into public transportation details as they were very well explained by Wales007 below. Its location is good only for those travelling by car, as it is close to a highway exit. The room we got... more

We stayed at the Ariston for 3nights. Our purpose for the visit, to see Venice. Situated on the outskirts of Mestre, this hotel is a little too out of the way for our liking. Although spotlessley clean and freindly, with a very good buffett breakfast, we would have prefered to stay closer to Venice itself. The ACTV public transport was... more

Arrived on Saturday 7th - took at taxi from main station (Ferrovia) - cost 13 euros for 6 of us - it was too far to walk. Arrived at hotel to a friendly reception. Rooms were clean and pleasant. Towels, shampoo and soap in bathroom. The rooms were cleaned daily, towels changed if needed and bedding changed once during our... more

we stayed at the hotel for two nights and liked the location. The staff was friendly and the rooms clean and in good condition. We did not expect a first class hotel, but found the Ariston perfect for our purpose - to explore Venice. more

This is the worse hotel I have ever stayed at. The location is further than what is advertised, the mattresses were old and you felt like you were going to roll to the floor. The rooms smell and the Air Conditioning is controlled by the receptionist. We had to ask them to turn it on after we checked in, then... more

Ladies and gentlemen,i've been to this hotel.To start with...it was far from what was promised or displayed on the brochure.We went to room after waiting for somebody to attend us at the reception desk for 45 mins.Then we were led to a room which was like a box room! we couldn't believe it,it was late and we decided to stay.... more

Rooms on 1st and 3rd floor are basic but okay. Hotel was clean and receptionist very friendly guy and helpful - BUT - it is impossibl t o understand why any sane person would have put together the bathrooms in such a way (!) some of the twins and single rooms on the 2nd floor are beyond belief.. Seriously -... more

The receptionist, Diego, was warm and friendly upon our arrival to the hotel, which seems kinda' stranded. There is practically nothing around it except for a cafe restaurant next door named Spaghetteria, which one should only go to if at risk of starving to death. Breakfast food served by this hotel was really pathetic. Also, the staff are not trained... more
