Torres de Alba consists of two towers and was the biggest aparthotel I stayed at. It was a little more expensive than Sevilla Suites and the decor wasn't as nice, but this turned out to be my favorite of the three places I stayed.

The biggest advantage was space, the rooms were very large with a full size kitchen, bathroom, living room, and bedroom. I had a huge window in the living room with a spectacular view. Every kitchen is large and there are washers and dryers in every room. The large size bathroom is great when you have ladies over.

The only drawbacks were the separate towers and gaudy bedcovers. I had to use two different elevators coming from and going to my room. The gaudy bed covers were the only things that didn't match the style of the rest of the room.

This place is also well known and at a major intersection, so most taxis should easily get you here.

Also, there are plenty of shops and restaurants on Via Venetto, so there is plenty to do in a short walking distance. As shown in the bottom left photo, there is an computer store with internet access right there. Two 24 hour internet cafes (and a few more that are not 24 hour) are only a block away on Via Venetto.

Here are a couple more photos showing the big window in the living room and those ugly bed covers.

I would highly recommend this place. The rooms are huge and are reasonably priced. A nice feature is the washer and dryer inside the room for laundry. I tried to get a king size bed instead of two doubles and they had none available. The kitchen was well equipped the staff downstairs was competent and super friendly.

I never actually brought anyone back, but I doubt it would have been a problem. It is also right up the street from Oasis Massage and walking distance to some restaurants, internet cafes and shops. The Crown Casino is also right down the street. Le Palace is within walking distance at about 10 minutes. I actually made that hike one time around 3 or 4 in the morning. I never felt unsafe.

I agree with all the statements above. It's a great location and the staff goes out of their way for you. I stayed there one night 4 months ago and will use them again in a few weeks. Here is their website, which usually has some specials:

I actually did their free car rental/room deal for about $80 bucks (+tax). Driving aroond was easy and I got to drive out to the Canal, but finding places in the City for p4p4 was kind of tricky so I don't think it's worth renting a car if you don't plan on checking out the countryside (very beautiful).

Here's their own website.

There is now a cafe open below that offers free Wi-fi access. Connection was fast. They make money on copy, phone, snacks, and other services.

They are now building a third tower building next to number two, so I would recommend requesting a room in the tower one building to avoid construction noise. That building will have 25 floors and about 90 rooms with a 24 hr. restaurant on the lobby level.
