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 room was clean. The staff was excellent. They were friendly and helpful. The room was small but it was more than adequate for my needs. The bed was comfortable. I was a lone traveller,so chose a the lowest room rate. I shared a washroom with one other room and there was no issues at all. I had a sink in the room to wash up ,but went a few steps down the hall for showering and toileting. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

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

In general, all was good. The location of the building is wonderful, 10-15min to main attractions. The room is small, but for one night it is enough. The property is in old building; facilities, also, is not new. The property situated on the first floor, so you need to go upstairs (with luggage, it would be a challenge). The hotel’s personal are very polite and helpful. Thank you!

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

Fantastic location 3 minutes to Rialto- 7 mins to San Marco. Clean and friendly cleaner.

Tiles not layed properly, moving and dirt coming up. Could leave a couple of extra pillows, only one per person and flat.

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.
