Accommodation

Venice2017: accommodation info

The hotels we chose for these Championships are located on the mainland, just over the bridge from Venice and from the race venue.

The month of September is still high season in Venice with hotel rates being at their highest. It is the month of the Venice Film Festival and the Historical Regatta.

2017 is also the year of the Venice Biennale of Art. These events attract a great number of persons to Venice. Mestre, which is part of Venice, is very conveniently located on the mainland.

Advantages to being on the mainland:

The Organising Committee will provide a shuttle bus service between the official hotels and the race venue for those who have reserved their accommodation through the OC. It can take you less than 10 minutes by car or bus to reach the race venue.
The hotels have an excellent price/quality ratio.
Restaurants are less expensive on the mainland.
It takes 15-20 minutes to reach Venice Marco Polo Airport by taxi from Mestre, and it is also less costly than going to Venice.
For whose arriving by car or bus, there is parking available at the hotel premises.
There is an excellent public transportation service between Mestre and Venice.
And last but not least, you can still explore Venice outside of racing hours without having to depend on the shuttle bus times. In other words, you will have the best of both worlds. All prices include room reservation and breakfast.

The city tax of €3.40 pp per day is not included.
