Until 1300 Venice was the most important merchant port in Europe.
There were regular sailings from Venice to just about everywhere,
especially for the ports of northern Europe and the Black Sea.
The "Albergarie" grew up in order to accommodate
the travellers to and from Venice's shores, amongst them the
hotel then known as
the "Albergaria Al Gallo". A famous travel guide of 1495 recorded
the Al Gallo as one of the best hotels in Venice at that time.
It was here that Ambassadors, Nobles and the Courtiers to the
King would stay, along with Heads of Government, when visiting
the Republic of Venice. The Al Gallo you find today is a newly
renovated family hotel, the decor in typically Venetian style;
perfect for a quiet and long-planned vacation, equipped with
all the comforts. The rooms are spacious and each has bathroom,
colour tv, hair dryer, telephone, safe, air conditioning, and
minibar. Serena and Alessandro Basile will be at your disposal
to give you all the information that you need to visit Venice
the Venetian way. It will takes you only 10 minutes walking
to get to Rialto Bridge and Saint Mark Square. Visit the Hotel
Al Gallo by clicking on the menu reported above.
