Map & location
Venice Mainland, Venice, Italy
Base yourself in Mestre, Venice’s mainland hub, and you’ll spend less time (and money) dragging bags over bridges and more time exploring. NH Venezia Laguna Palace sits in a modern canalside district, close to local cafés and everyday Venetian life rather than souvenir shops.
Piazza Ferretto – Mestre’s pedestrianised square lined with bars and trattorie – is within easy reach, and cultural stops like the M9 Museum give you a different angle on Venetian history. When you’re ready for St Mark’s Square, simply hop on a bus, tram or train and you’ll be crossing the lagoon in minutes.
- Approx. transfer time from airport 15–30 minutes by road from Venice Marco Polo Airport (traffic dependent)
Facilities
Pool & outdoors
There is no swimming pool or beach on-site – this is a city-style hotel geared towards exploring Venice rather than a resort stay. The waters you’ll see from the hotel are those of the private marina and canal, adding atmosphere but not for swimming.
When you want sea and sand, Lido di Jesolo and other Venetian Riviera resorts are reachable as a day trip by public transport or excursion from Mestre.
Spa, sports & wellness
Facilities are designed around comfort, convenience and business travel:
• Compact fitness room with cardio and weights, ideal for a quick workout
• Striking glass-covered atrium over the marina, often used as event space
• 24-hour reception and multilingual staff
• Meeting and conference facilities (popular with corporate guests)
• On-site parking/garage options (local charges may apply)
• Luggage storage for early arrivals/late departures
Exact facilities and opening hours can vary; some services carry an extra local charge and may be subject to demand.
Activities
This is an urban base designed for sightseeing, so most of your “activities” will involve getting out into Venice and the mainland:
• Explore Mestre’s Piazza Ferretto, cafés and local boutiques
• Visit the M9 Museum for multimedia exhibits on modern history
• Day trips into Venice’s historic centre for St Mark’s Basilica, the Doge’s Palace and the Grand Canal
• Optional lagoon excursions, gondola rides and island-hopping to Murano or Burano (bookable locally)
On-site, the focus is on relaxing at the bar terrace, catching up on work in the public areas, or fitting in a gym session before dinner.
Guest services
• 24-hour reception and concierge assistance
• Free Wi‑Fi throughout the hotel
• Luggage storage for early or late departures
• Laundry and dry-cleaning services (local charge)

Food & drink
The hotel’s main restaurant serves a generous buffet breakfast when you book Bed & Breakfast, with continental and hot options to set you up for a day in Venice. In the evenings, expect international favourites alongside Italian dishes, with an emphasis on seasonal produce.
The marina-front bar is a real bonus for a mainland stay – order an aperitivo, step out onto the terrace and watch boats come and go under the hotel’s striking glass canopy. It’s a relaxed, contemporary spot for pre-dinner drinks or a nightcap after returning from the islands.
Dining opening times and menus can vary by season; half board is not typically offered here, but you can always choose to dine in the restaurant or explore the nearby restaurants in Mestre.
