Hotel Venezia

From Rome we went back by train to Milan and picked our cars. From there we drove eastward to Venice. The journey took us 4 hours, delayed by a number of traffic jams along the way.

We stayed in the city of Mestre on the mainland - the city of Venice is located on an island within the lagoon in front of Mestre. Venice is connected by a 5-km causeway to Mestre. We stayed in a hotel called Hotel Venezia, a lot cheaper than staying in Venice. There is also free parking. It costs 1 euro for a 20 minutes bus ride from the hotel to Venice.
