The Hotel
W
e are in the heart of Venice, a short walk from St. Mark's Square, the Academy of Fine Arts, the Fenice theatre, Palazzo Grassi and Ca' Rezzonico. Decidedly among the most outstanding of 3 star hotels in Venice. What is now Hotel Ala was in fact a proprietarily house, of which historical traces exist from the early eighteenth century, as can be seen on paintings, including one by Canaletto. The building was made into a hotel only in the 1960s and it has been managed by the Salmaso family for over 15 years. From St. Mark's Square, walking towards "Accademia's Bridge" you will arrive in "Campo Santa Maria del Giglio", also known as "Zobenigo" in memories of a patrician family, a little square very suggestive close to Canal Grande and St. Maria's Church that gives the name to the district.

Is in this corner of Venice that is located Hotel Ala, completely renovated as in the common areas as in the bedrooms but still maintaining an unequalled Venetian charm thanks to its hall floor made precious by some "glass murrine" settled in and some handmade stucco in '700 Venetian style.
 

A marble stair going up to the first floor where starts the west home wing and a large and marvelous Venetian chandelier created by Giorgio Ferro, a famous glassmaker master, complete the atmosphere.

Hotel Ala is composed by two different wings for a total of 85 bedrooms, which have been renovated recently with all modern comforts and '800 and '900 furniture, lacquered Venetian "barocchetto" so is a pleasant and charming hotel with a special atmosphere and thanks to its management our guests will enjoy their staying in Venice and will appreciate the comfortable position of this place.
