Our Top Hotels
Mestre is a populous region flanking the iconic waterways of Venice. Established as a fortress town during the Roman age, Mestre was once a separate entity until its merger with Venice in 1926. The borough underwent significant growth after World War II, evolving into an urban hub with notable connections to Venice via the Freedom Bridge. It served as a vital port during the Venetian Republic, a connection valued between the mainland and the island city.
Today, Mestre is known for its cheaper prices and easy connections to Venice, making it an ideal spot for thrifty travellers. It also boasts an assortment of attractions, like the historical Palazzo da Re and the majestically renaissance Duomo of St. Lawrence. The M9 Museum and the bustling city’s transport system offer a taste of modernity in this historical borough. The essence of this charming place found its way into the world of literature too, with a mention in Donna Leon's mystery novel, "The Anonymous Venetian".
