Situated in Castello, Venice’s largest sestiere (district), the Ali Hotel enjoys a privileged location that balances proximity to major attractions with the authentic ambiance of a residential neighborhood. From the hotel, guests can easily access the magnificent St. Mark’s Square (Piazza San Marco), just a short and scenic walk away, where the breathtaking Basilica di San Marco and the Doge’s Palace await exploration. The hotel’s position in Castello also places visitors near the Arsenale, Venice’s historic shipyard and naval power center, now home to the prestigious Venice Biennale exhibitions.

The nearby Riva degli Schiavoni waterfront promenade offers stunning views across the lagoon, particularly magical during sunrise and sunset hours.

Guests consistently praise the friendly and knowledgeable staff who offer insider recommendations for authentic dining experiences and hidden gems throughout the city. The Ali’s breakfast service, featuring freshly baked pastries and strong Italian coffee, provides the perfect start to a day of Venetian adventures. Despite its 3-star classification, the Ali delivers an experience that often exceeds expectations, with many guests noting that the warm atmosphere and strategic location offer significantly more value than many higher-rated establishments in the city.
