A Tide of People
As a side trip on our way from Florence to Paris, we decided to spend a few hours in Venice, as you do. We were a little concerned at leaving our luggage in storage at Venice SL station, mainly because there was a 20 kg per bag limit, and our bags were feeling decidedly heavier than this. But the guy behind the counter heaved our bags onto the trolley with a knowing smile, and we were on our way. It took a little detective work to find out how to exchange the voucher ...
Milan to Venice
... with sliced potato. It felt good to relax and enjoy.
After dinner we were going to head to a concert, but instead choose to explore the streets and find some gelato. We wandered over to the Rialto Bridge and walked along the Grand Canal. It took us a couple tries but we found a Gelato place that sold gluten fee (senza glutine) gelato. It was delicious and a perfect way to end our first night in ...

... informed us that as we were on an italy bound train we had to reserve our seats. So on top of our eurorail pass ticket we have to pay for reserved seats on all Italian trains - its compulsory. Fortunately he was helpful and did the reservation remotely but as we were coming from switzerland he couldn't do our on forward tickets. We arrived in Milan shortly before lunch where we had to change trains for Venice. The train was ready to depart and just so happened to be ...

Historical Traveler Reviews Villa Stella Venice
Excellent value Villa
The Villa Stella is a small very good value Guest House type accomodation. It is kept scrupiously clean by the owners and they provide a really plentiful continental breakfast. A very good price was agreed by contacting the owners directly.
I enjoyed the journey from St Marks square to the Villa "30 Minutes", the views from the waterbus were wonderful.
Some people may find the distance from Lido to Venice a small hinderance but I was glad to escape the crowds at the end of the day.
I would highly recomend Villa Stella to anybody looking for good quality accomodation at a very reasonable price.
Far from town, but a great bargain!
The ONLY negative for this hotel is its location. The island of Lido is a 35 minute boat ride from central Venice. Granted, one only has to do this ride twice each day, but one must also plan for the entire day and not rely on returning to the hotel for supplies, rest, etc... That said, the rooms were VERY clean, the bathrooms were newly rennovated, and the staff was charming. Breakfast was above average for hostel fare. I'd return again because the price far outmeasures the distance. A great value.
