where to leave a car in Venice for two days
Hi. I'm thinking of driving to Venice (as part of a longer itinerary) and I'm wondering where I can leave the car for a couple of days. Does anyone know any parking lot / garage in Mestre? or somewhere else? Proximity to public transportation to Venice is key.

Yes Mestre might be my choice as well - much cheaper and train takes you right to near Grande Canale in few minutes - constant shuttle trains. But key may be driving into the Pzle Roma garage can mean long lines in season getting across the causeway to the garage. Mestre seems easier in easier out and cheaper. Don't leave valuables in your car.

I'll try to park in Mestre then. I'm a bit concerned though that, since I'll arrive late afternoon, all the spots at the train station parking will be taken. Any experience? sorry for dragging this on.

Thanks Ira. I believe at P.le Roma or Tronchetto you can reserve. At the Mestre station you can't. Anyway, I called Mestre and was told there should be places. So Mestre station it is.
