Hotel Ambasciatori is in a town avenue, strategically positioned both for tourists who want to quickly get to Venice itself and for business people who require a central base from which to reach the industrial and commercial zones of Italy's thriving North East. The railway station is 800 m from the Hotel and the centre of Mestre is even closer. Venice can be reached quickly by using an efficient and regular public transport bus service (leaving at roughly 8-minute intervals): the bus stop is right opposite the hotel itself.
