Unahotels Ala Venezia - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel was beautifully appointed and the staff were polite and friendly. The location was ideal - straight off the vaporetto from the airport and down an alleyway with no bridges to cross. It was also easy to get to the Tronchetto for our cruise the same way. This was a great location where it was fairly peaceful and away from the busy Rialto area but close enough to great restaurants and other vaporettos to Murano and Burano. Overall a great hotel and would stay there again!"
