Hotel recommendation for Treviso/Veneto?
 
We are planning a trip to Veneto and Fruili in the fall and are looking for a moderately priced, quiet hotel in Treviso with parking for our car. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Mille grazie!

We just stayed at the Boscolo Hotel Maggior Consiglio in Treviso. It's a 4star, has a pool, gym, and parking (both free and paid /we used free and had no safety concerns although it was unguarded). We chose this hotel because of the parking and ease of getting to and from hotel while traveling. We paid 79 euro/night and booked through venere.com. The staff was helpful for the most part(even did the legwork of paying a parking ticket we got in the city!) and most spoke perfect english. It's not centrally located but getting into Treviso proper wasn't much of a problem, parking was, so I'd take the bus from hotel next time - very nice location for base to explore other places. If you are looking for a hotel in Treviso proper just ignore my post because this isn't the place for you!
Just a note - the train station in Treviso is very simple so if you are taking any train trips this a great place to do it from!

Thank you, gottatravel europe, for your reply. I just checked venere for the Boscolo Hotel Maggior Consiglio in Treviso and can't believe your good fortune at getting a rate of 79 euro/night. Their rate is now 390 euro/night! It looks lovely, but way out of our price range!
Your message also confirmed that parking in Treviso is a challenge and that seems to rule out Campeol, which doesn't have parking available for guests. Is there any place to park in the centro or just outside the city walls for three days? Does anyone know if there buses into the centro from hotels outside the city walls (La Giardino, Scala, La Colonna)?

Wow - I am surprised at the price jump! There were several(many) hotels/villas lining the road running between Venice and Treviso and nearly every one of them had a bus stop in front of them. There is a parking lot at the train station in Treviso that we couldn't find in enough time to avoid our parking ticket so I am not sure what the charge is. From what I saw the street parking was at a premium and none of it was free. Sorry I can't be of more help.

Re the price for the Boscolo Hotel Maggior Consiglio in Treviso: I misspoke. 390 euros is the price for three nights NOT the price per night. I have been doing a lot of checking on hotels and have been given the price per night, but Venere gives the total price. Gottatravel europe's rate of 79 euros/per night was still an enviable rate! Thank you very much for all of your advice.
I would love to hear about any other hotel recommendations anyone has for Treviso.
