Priceline Hotel: 4* Venice (Venice Train Station - Santa Croce) Hotel Papadopoli Venezia - Mgallery Collection

[hikergirl11]

Hello everyone

Having now secured my first Priceline reservation, I am hooked! I wonder why I didn't do this before! Gosh I could have saved a lot of $$. Thanks everyone for all the help.

 

Now I am looking at our summer vacation in Venice. We are staying 1 night in June at a Venice Hotel near the Santa Lucia Train Station and 1 night in July. Exact dates are June 17, 2015 and July 1, 2015, both for 1 night.

There is a PRICELINE EXPRESS Deal on Price.line for a 4* hotel near the train that is a "guest favorite" and $158 -- any guesses what hotel this might be? There's also a 3* for $110.

What appears to be the same two hotels pop up in July, but for cheaper.

Any help appreciated.

 

Thanks!

Nice first Price.line win and glad you are looking forward to your stay! :)

 

We'll use this thread for the June stay. Please post a separate thread for the July stay - thanks.

 

What are the amenities showing with the PRICELINE EXPRESS listing?

Hi AaronJB

Thanks for the reply. I haven't quite figured out where to put my posts yet -- I keep messing that up. I did read all the materials but maybe this went by me.

 

The 4* hotel near the train station says restaurant and free internet and "bed choice."

The 3* is pets allowed and free internet.

 

Any ideas? Many thanks!

Best guess for the 4* would be the Hotel Papadopoli Venezia... for the 3* i'm less certain, but my guess would be the Hotel Il Mercante Di Venezia.

Do keep in mind that star ratings in Europe are a bit more generous than their US counterparts, so a 3* overseas may be more like a 2*/2.5* hotel here in the States.

Let us know what you decide and how it goes or if we can be of further help.

Thereuare, you are amazing. Your "best guesses" are pretty darn good. Hotel Papadopoli for $167, a savings of about $40 on my safety net hotel. So many thanks due to you.
