Al Sole Hotel is a delightful hotel in the San Croce area of Venice away from the crowds of San Marco. We discovered it by accident one evening on our first visit to Venice in October 2004. We were so enchanted by it we decided that if we were to return to Venice we would definitively stay there, and that is what we did. We stayed for three nights recently and we were not disappointed – so much so, that we have booked another visit in January 2006!
Al Sole Hotel is housed in a charming XV century palace and faces on to the Tolentini Canal, with a very open aspect, and with a garden at the back. The surrounding area is quiet and attracts locals and tourists alike. It is only a five minute walk from Piazzale Roma bus station so it is very conveniently situated for a transfer from the airport. On our recent visit we booked a water taxi which took us straight to the hotel but on our next visit we intend to take the less expensive bus and walk the short distance to the hotel.
From Al Sole, it is only a few minutes walk to several good and inexpensive restaurants as well as to the famous Campo San Margherita with a wealth of lively bars and restaurants.
We would definitely recommend this charming hotel, with its friendly and helpful staff, to anyone who wants to stay in a perfect location in the heart of old Venice. We can’t wait to return.
