We will be in Venice Oct.6-8. Either it is a very popular time or an event must be taking place since we are having no luck in finding a room. We looked at all of the suggestions posted by others regarding and tried many of those recommended. HELP!
You're right. I don't know what's going on that weekend but the usual sites didn't show many options. There are a few on Eurocheapo.com.
You didn't say what your budget is.
We had a similar problem this past May. We only needed one night until the new Hilton Molino Stuky opened on June 1 and most wanted a 2-3 night commitment. We found a room at the Hotel Messner. They may put you in their annex which is a 1-star rated building about 200 feet down a back canal. Very quiet, very small but very clean. We paid 110E for the night. You can message them at [email protected]
try www.accorshotels.com and stay in Mestre if you are still haveing difficulty finding lodging.. if you stay at Novotel hotel they will shuttle you to Venice, they have a pool and huge buffet brfast incl and parking. Or seek cheaper stays in Mestre if you need to. but do not miss Venice it is wonderful.
If you can find a place in Mestre close to the train station I would suggest that.There are trains to Venice every5-10 minutes.
You might try www.domusorsoni.com it is a wonderful B&B in the Cannaregio not far from all the things you might want to see and the staff is very helpful.
Good Luck
