I stayed at Hotel Ala with my mother and husband in September 2011. After much research, we decided on Hotel Ala for location, price and based on other reviews. We were happy with our choice. The rooms are small and a little dark, but we were not in Venice to be inside a hotel room! The location is ideal as... More

We loved exploring Venice and this Hotel Ala was in a convenient place for our frequent walks around the canals. It is in a direct line, along an ally, to a water taxi stop so arriving and departing was easy. Our room opened out to a canal so we could look down to see gondolas glide past with accordian players... More

You go into your hotel room and open the window. Often you see another building. But below my room at Hotel Ala, the gondolas were going by. Thus began the magic that is Venice. The hotel is centrally located, the public areas comfortable with a homelike, intimate feeling. The service excellent and the breakfast is the finest I'd enjoyed in... More

This is a very belated review, as we traveled to Italy in May of 2009 and started out trip in Venice with two nights at Hotel Ala. Not sure if it was just good timing, or a bit of sympathy for some dishevled travelers (who couldn't find our paper work for the room when trying to check in) arriving from... More

We were three couples traveling together and loved having all of our rooms overlooking the canal. Charming rooms with large windows and the traditional green shutters. Rooms were surprisingly large and our bathroom was even spacious. We found the staff pretty friendly and helpful and the breakfast was great. More

This is an excellent hotel for a 3 star. The rooms are immaculate and very comfortable. The choice at breakfast is better than some 4 star hotels in Venice. My bag went missing at the airport and the reception staff helpfully took the forms from me and chased up getting it delivered the next day. The location is very convenient,... More

We stayed here for three days in May - fully stocked breakfast, helpful front desk, very hard mattress/pillows (won the prize for the entire 3 week trip), clean...but the best was the location - near the Vaparetto and all of the sights. We spent part of a rainy day and other times hanging out in the American Bar with a... More

Stayed in this hotel 2 nights before going on the cruise. Great location just only 5 minutes to St Mark square. We had a room at 4th floor, room is quite small but we had a balcony. It's quite good to look down the canel to see the gondola. We had an air-conditioner in our room but the louver of... More
