Great location for this smart traditionally furnished hotel
The entrance to the Hotel Continental, a short walk from the centre of Treviso |
This traditionally furnished, four star hotel in Via Roma is also just a short walk from Piazza dei Signori in the centre of Treviso, where there are plenty of shops, bars and restaurants.
The Hotel Continental first opened its doors in 1959, having been given glamorous early 20th century décor to wow its guests.
There are still marble floors, dark wood panelling, chandeliers and antique furniture, but the hotel now also provides 21st century facilities.
The hotel reception is open 24 hours a day to provide assistance to guests whenever it is required.
Room service is available from eight o’clock in the morning till ten o’clock at night. A sweet and savoury breakfast buffet is served in the breakfast room on the ground floor from seven o’clock until 11 o’clock each morning.
Despite the traditional décor that reflects a more stylish, bygone era, all rooms have the modern comforts of air conditioning, free Wi-Fi, a minibar and satellite tv.
The Continental can be found on the corner of Via Roma and Via Girolamo Da Treviso, a few steps from the railway station |

Why stay at Hotel Continental Treviso
The Hotel Continental is in an ideal location for people interested in exploring the Veneto as the railway station and bus stops are just a short walk away on the other side of the city’s old walls. It is also close to the centre of Treviso and you pass plenty of smart shops, bars and restaurants on your way into the city. It is handy for the airport, as it is just a short bus or taxi ride from Treviso’s Antonio Canova airport.
The Palazzo dei Trecento is one of the sights of Treviso's attractive city centre |
Just a short walk away from the Hotel Continental you are in the centre of the city and Via Calmaggiore, the main street, where there are some smart shops. At one end is Piazza dei Signori with its Palazzo dei Trecento, which was originally built in the 13th century and at the other end is Treviso’s Duomo.
Stroll along the willow-fringed canals with waterwheels behind Via Calmaggiore until you reach the Pescheria (fish market), which is on a very small island in the middle of Treviso’s River Sile.
Restaurant recommendation
For traditional Treviso cooking or good pizza, try Zeus Pizzeria Ristorante da Laura at Via Avogari 14 in the centre of Treviso, just minutes away from Via Calmaggiore. The staff are friendly and it stays open till late in the evening.
Try tagliatelle al sugo d’anatra (tagliatelle with duck sauce), risotto con funghi (mushroom risotto) and bigoli in salsa di acciughe (pasta with anchovy sauce). Also sample the locally-grown Treviso radicchio (a type of chicory).
Local wine
A stay in Treviso gives you the perfect opportunity to sample Prosecco, a light, refreshing sparkling wine, which is made by many different producers in the area. Treviso is close to the so-called strada del prosecco, the road between Valdobbiadene and Conegliano, which is lined with wineries producing Prosecco DOC (Denominazione di Origine Controllata), the stamp of quality given to the best Italian wines.
Shopping
There are plenty of the top fashion stores, such as Benetton, Gucci and Sisley, as well as cosmetics shops and leather goods shops in the centre of Treviso.
