Hotel Al Sole

134-136 Fondamenta Minotto, Venice city center

A precious gem of Venice: Palazzo Marcello. Situated in the heart of the ancient Venice, Al Sole Hotel is a high quality hotel located in a marvelous fifteenth-century Palazzo, property of the homonymous noble Venetian family that still owns and manages it. In the Al Sole Hotel elegance and glamour of the XV century are mingled with modern services and comforts. The Hotel has an elevator to all floors, a spacious breakfast room, a fascinating inner garden and a characteristic Venetian Bar. Also available for our guests is a WI-FI system and an internet corner. Most of our guest rooms have been recently entirely renovated and refurbished with functional and modern furniture, while maintaining the different personalities to which they historically belong. They either face the charming Tolentini Canal, the charming inside garden, or the characteristic red roofs and bell towers. All rooms are very quiet and offer directly controlled air conditioning, satellite TV, direct telephone, minibar, safe deposit, and hairdryer. Some rooms are equipped with tea/coffee making facilities. The hotel's magnificent private courtyard represents an ideal open-air space where to enjoy breakfast, relax, read, or taste an evening aperitif served by its own antique Venetian Bar "La Colonna". Hotel Al Sole is situated in a very peaceful area of the historic and artistic center of Venice. A few steps from Rialto and Piazza San Marco, the hotel is strategically located less than 5 minutes walking distance from Piazzale Roma's airport bus terminals and car parking, less than 10 minutes walking distance from the Railway Station, and about 30 minutes from Venice Airport "Marco Polo" and Treviso Airport. The familiar and warm environment offered by Hotel Al Sole, combined with its rich history and the marvelous Venetian treasures, will make your stay unforgettable and will trigger your desire to return to visit us.

    Luca and Mohamed were fantastic, nothing was to much trouble and they were both very polite. Everything a hotel should be, faultless. The bar next door is also very good, Luigi is a great host

    The location is a little far away from the central train station and is not easy to find it after asking several local people. To a person who arrives in Venice by train, it is a little inconvenient. The hotel staff is friendly though.

    The hotel was absolutely lovely - loved the garden as it was so peaceful & nice to be able to sit out & relax in. The staff were very friendly & informative. Rooms were spotless & nice & bright & airy - location was brilliant as it was nice to be a little but away from the crowds of San Marcos Square but yet within walking distance of everything. I have already recommended the hotel to some friends who are going to stay there & would highly recommend to all. I look forward to planning another trip & staying again at Hotel Al Sole as it was perfect.

    Thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Al Sole hotel and would definately stay there again. It is around 10 minutes walking distance from the station which is where I arrved. This was very handy as there are obviously no taxis in Venice, other than water taxis, which are not always easily available. The hotel is located in the Santa Croce part of Venice which for us was a perfect base to explore the city. I took my Mum for her 60th birthay, We did not particularly want to stay right in the middle of all the hustle and bustle of the St Marks area, so this was a real happy medium. Very picturesque and a lot quiter but on the same street as a couple of lovely resteraunts. St Marks was around a 20 -30 minute walk but there are loads of lovely places to see on the way. The hotel staff were extremely helpful in making enquiries and getting tickets for a concert that we went to and generally could not do enough for us. We had a twin superior garden room which I would highly recommend as it was very quiet, no mosquitos, very large, clean, recently decorated with a nice bathroom. All areas of the hotel are recently decorated in a traditional style and spotlessly clean. The hotel only serves breakfast which is buffet style, They have a reasonable selection and some lovely fresh croissants. The bar facilty is fairly basic: Wine, beer or coke/fanta but there are a couple of bars located almost next door to the hotel. I feel this hotel represents very good value in comparison to other hotels in Venice.
