My husband and I have been traveling in Europe for over 40 years. We love private European hotels even though they are not shiny and fancy. Hotel Alla Fava was perfect for us. Our room and our bathroom were very clean. My luggage had been lost and the staff at check in asked how they could help. Also the staff at check in was friendly about the hotel and the area. There was a nice table and chairs in the hall to sit and have a coffee or a glass of wine. The window looked right out onto a canal. It was really pretty at night. We enjoyed our stay and would stay here again.

The hotel could use some updating, some fresh paint and new carpet BUT it would not stop us from staying here again. We will be back. 😊 The place is very charming.

The stuff, especially mr. Gabriel has been unbelievably helpful with everything we needed - from check in through the duration of our stay to the very checkout. He’s literally been an angel, he helped us not only with the organisation, but also stuff he’s not obligated to do. For that, we’ve decided to give hotel Alla Fava such a high note.

The lack of air conditioning in our room resulted in an unbelievable amount of mosquitoes, with lights off. It’s also impossible to have closed windows, because the windows are too tightly closed and no air gets in

Wonderful staff all polite and all said hello on passing, cleaners worked so hard in the heat, lovely lad on reception, he’s a star and was so polite and helpful, when we arrived, and always chatted as we walked in and out. Absolutely beautiful room overlooking the canal Large room plenty of room storage space Small but perfectly functional bathroom just slightly small for size of room But loved the 3 windows overlooking the canal all with old shutters Quiet area with gondolas drifting past, great to see all the boats going by, not busy and not a noisy area But short walk and you are by restaurants shops bars etc

The rooms were so hot No aircon working a fan just didn’t cut through the heat Air con very much needed in these rooms

Great location, clean, very good value for money.

The sound proof isn’t the greatest, unfortunately we were awoken by a inconsiderate guest talking loudly on the phone outside our room and then could hear someone’s razor in a different room after that as we were awake. The bin boat is also outside the hotel at 7am every morning bar Sunday which can be loud.

The room was very very clean, warm & completely acceptable! The bed was lovely comfy -- I got extra blankets because it was winter time -- staff was very helpful -- it's so close to the Rialto Bridge -- amazing 13th century building -- completely suitable. Right outside my bedroom was a view of a canal. I was completely satisfied -- and the price point was completely acceptable. I would definitely stay here again.

Considering it's Venice & right off the tourist area, everything was what I expected it would be! Yes, I'd stay here again. Considering it's Venice & people don't spend time in their rooms, It was what I expected & completely ok. I wish I could have stayed longer!

I liked the location, the antique furniture, the view on the channel is from our room number 107, everything is neat and tidy. especially, that the building is so ancient, you won’t notice it as everything is clean. The stuff is friendly and kind. Even though we were late on checking in and there is no one from 5-7 at the hotel to open the door, we went to another hotel on the opposite to call ours and found out the password to type and we entered without any problems.

it’s not about the property, on the channel at 5am they start picking rubbish so be ready for that and close the windows shuts

Excellent location. Everything was very close. The Rialto bridge was 1 minute away and San Marco square 5 minutes away. The room was very good. Much better than the pictures. Clean, comfortable and large (we have booked a triple room) with a view of the canal. The receptionists were very kind and helpful. I highly recommend it.

I had great experience to satay with hotel, staffs are so Co operative always ready to hear and specially tha lady at reception in morning time so helpful and polite my thumbs up for hospitality of staff and hotel, I recommend everyone to please whenever you come to Venice stay with hotel alla fava.

All was wonderful, price, location, the hotel is so pretty and classic looking. You can get to the main attractions ina minute walking. I woul recomend it 100% of the time.

Only downside was a strong smell of rot (similar to dead rat) around the lobby and hallways. The room did not have this smell and was pretty nice to be in. Apart from this resolvable issue the place was amazing.

Location was excellent. Everything else was as expected. Accomodation was clean. Staff were friendly. Appreciated the loan of a travel adaptor and willingness to store our luggage after check out. Would certainly stay again.

The air conditioning unit really required a fan to be added to the room as a backup. Conditions were rather hot and humid.
