I booked this 2 night weekend as my mums Christmas present, looking at the 4* rating thought it was good... Boy was I wrong!! On looking at the Alexander Hotels website, it stated that you have to get a blue ACTV bus, good luck with this... There are FIVE!! We managed to get the bus at the furthest end, after... More

Even i got mislead by the 4 start claim that the hotel makes. In reality it is not even close to a decent 2 star hotel. There was a nasty smell in the entire lobby, which passed on to the rooms as well. The lifts were like a roller-coster ride making a lot of noise and if 2 people get... More

The hotel must heave stolen at least 1 star from some one, it is ok if traveling with family, in car and in tight budget, but expect the minimum. Rooms clean, the front desk seems to be manage by family owners, if you want to spend more than one day at Venice and don't mind paying the Isola garage (Piazzale... More

Our time in Venice was only 2 nights and for this time and price, the hotel was ok. The rooms were dated but conformable. The hotel isn't in Venice but in Mestre but this is the ideal location as the local bus stops are just outside the hotel and go directly to the bus terminal in Venice. Breakfast is continental...

I was very surprised with the low price of the Alexander Hotel given that their rating was a 4 star. I was a bit suspicious, but I thought it can't be that bad if it's a 4 star. Arriving at Mestre train station, my friend and I took a taxi to the hotel (14 Euro). This hotel is NOT in... More

the Alexander is technically a 4 star hotel, but it doesn't charge 4 star prices, which is ok as it has seen better days. it has a quiet off street location in an area of Mestre that could not be considered central. However, it is easy to get the bus into Venice, just get your tickets at the tabac beforehand.... More

Even though the staff was quite nice and helpfull and the breakfast was very complete, the hotel itself was not that good at all. I don't know what kind of rating they were into to be called a 4 stars, but it definetly wasn't a "propper 4 star". During my whole european tour, I've stayed in 2 or 3 three-stars-hotels... More

It looks poor for a four star hotel. Rooms not bad, but bathrooms haven't been renovated for a long time. Tasteless breakfast. Good location, close to Venice.

The Hotel Alexander is a nice little hotel. It is located in a residential neighborhood of Mestre. I felt very safe walking to and from hotel late night. It is not fancy but it is clean. Breakfast was not that impressive. It is easy to get to from the either of Venice’s two train stations. The hotel staff is nice... More
