I personally believe that 2-3 days will be enough to visit rather deeply both Venice and surrounding area (islands of Murano, Burano and Torcello).
I've no idea about hostels but unless you want go over there the first days you'll be in Italy I guess you'll have more than a single opportunity to get detailed infos from people that have stayed in any of Venice's hostels

The best time to go there is during May-June (late spring) or in Sept.-Oct. (early fall)
No discussions on the best way to get you there.
Take a train (ES = Eurostar -You'll need to book seat and ticket in advance) - The cost of the ticket is abt. 100 Euro ( 2nd class- standard fare - there and back) This is the link for yr immediate checking

I took the train from Florence to Venice before. There are cheaper hotels then the hostels, so get a good guide book. The hostel was okay, but why do that if you can get hotel room?
Venice was my fav. I've been there twice before. I'm jealous!

I stay in northern Italy and return and forth in Europe by the three hundred and sixty 5 days. oftentimes, December is chilly, yet not undesirable for return and forth right here. There are some thrilling issues to make certain and do which could basically be achieved in December. for occasion, in Rome, there is the Christmas industry in Piazza Navona or the a hundred presepi (nativity scenes) exhibition in Sala Bramonte. Or the nativity in St Peter's sq. on the Vatican. many of the traditional vacationer factors of interest (different than issues like waterparks) would be open. In Venice, you have gotten some days the place there is a few flooding. oftentimes, it is not too undesirable and you'd be able to easily anticipate the tide to bypass out to be lower back to ordinary. There are raised walkways positioned out in some components. you may get some thrilling photos then besides. some days would have fog, yet those are thrilling in Venice. it somewhat is difficulty-free to have faith you're lower back interior the renaissance city then. extremely that's sturdy for you or not relies upon on your tolerance for the chillier climate. somewhat, in case you dress warmly it may well be ok.

I went to the Central Hotel. I think it was nice and cheaper than the hotel on the island a lot. I took a bus to go to the island for 12 mins by the bus number 7. If you can go there around feb. 14 -21there is a nice time to go and see the Venice Carnival....
Ryanairs what the first said is the best i think :)

When we were in Venice, we stayed at a really cute youth hostel with dorm style rooms and stuff. We also purchased Rick Steves "Italy" travel book and he gave us a lot of tips on places to go, how to travel, eat etc-and for the most part, they were inexpensive. If you're going to to Italy for a year, it would be a wise investment to buy this book and I gave you another link for another helpful youth hostel sight.

better to travel by train...but check on frequent strikes...consult the site www. trenitalia.it for schedule and prices.save if you are a student... sleeping in venice can be very very expensive...i suggest you stop in the city of Mestre (5 minutes by train or bus from venice) and save some money... best time is spring or winter... as other options near venice for sleeping and saving check Treviso (20 minutes by train).. venice can be seen in three days if you are a good walker.. wear very conf shoes...if you take the vaporetto (the water bus) it is going to cost you 5 euros.
do not miss the Ducal Palace, the Saint mark's square and basilica, and the rialto bridge.

Ciao,
nice to talk with you, please check the ryanair website, it is a low cost airplane company, I went to venice last year with then , you arrive at Treviso airport and then 30/40 minutes ( it depends on the traffic jam) you are in Venice using the bus. A return ticket costed me 50 euro.
Spring is the best period, let's say April.
Ciao and buon viaggio

Hop on the night train and you'll get there in the morning.
The trains are very reasonable and fun in Italy.
There is a hostel, but it isn't on the mainland. Just don't going during the peak tourist season or it'll be too crowded.

I'd suggest you go in late March/ early April (but not exactly over Easter). Try a guesthouse (casa di accoglienza) of a religious congregation (nuns). They are sometimes as cheap as hostels and offer better conditions.Good luck!
