CHC Continental is a Lista di Spagna hotel, which means two things. It's 0.3 km from Santa Lucia station by Best Western's count, and about 1.0 miles on foot from Marittima by our routing — across the Grand Canal at Piazzale Roma, with bags.
The street is pedestrian, so a taxi stops at Piazzale Roma, 0.7 km away, and you walk the rest.
There's a restaurant and a bar on the premises, a lift and a luggage deposit. Breakfast is €16 (about US$18) a person if it isn't in your rate.
Book it if you're arriving by train and staying a night in the city, not if you're hauling three suitcases from a car.
Book it if
- You're arriving by train at Santa Lucia
- You want a restaurant on the premises
- You're bringing a pet for €20 (about US$20) a stay
Look elsewhere if
- You're arriving by car with heavy bags.
- You want the shortest walk to the ship.
- You need breakfast in the rate.
