Place to stay in Venice for quick Airport access?!

hi, thanks for all your help guys, now i need your help to ask about which place to stay. im mostly worried about accesibility to transportation to the airport in the morning. i need to catch the first bus at 5 am cuz my flight is at 7am, it's got me worried.

my options are:

hotel antico capon
in Campo Santa Margherita


Alloggi Gerotto Calderan
in Campo San Geremia

does anybody know how far the nearest bus stop to the marco airport is from these places and how long it would take? thanks!

Your bus will leave from Piazzale Roma. Are you limited to just those hotels?

nah im not, but these are the cheapest i can find with pretty decent ratings.

antico capon is 27 euros a nite
allogi gerotto calderan is 25

but yeah, does that bus make stops along the way too or is it just from there?

Look, exnx, get your head around the fact that the only buses in Venice are water buses! Land buses *only* operate from Piazzale Roma.

Now, to answer your question:

Campo San Geremia is much closer, but you have to cross one of the three tall (25-30 steps, up and down) bridges in Venice, the one opposite the train station.

Campo San Margherita is further away. You do not have to cross one of the tall bridges but probably a dozen or so low (six or seven steps, up and down) bridges.
