The hotel, formerly a Hilton, has seen better days. It looks like it hasn't been renovated since the 70's and the outside windows haven't been washed ... in a while, making the view of Caracas a bit blurry. On the plus side of the ledger, my room on the "Executive" floor was reasonably clean. There was a safe deposit box... More

This is NOT a five stars hotel. It is dark, old, bad service, and insecure. During my stay, my family and i watched a robbery in front of the hotel, and security personal stayed like nothing happened. I'll never go back to this hotel and i hope lot of travelers read this review. And breakfast the worst i ever ate... More

Certainly no 5 star resort but my family and were impressed with this 1970s style hotel. The staff were helpful, professional and friendly and the service excellent. The location is fantastic - possibly the safest place in Caracas. Located right across from an excellent theatre and charming little bars and restaurants in the theatre complex. The food in the hotel's... More

After I heard this used to be a Hilton hotel I was looking forward to my stay here but I was disappointed by the old furniture, stained carpets and bedspread, and dim rooms. However, the service at reception (in English) was very good and breakfast and the pool were nice as well. Still I will probably not return to Alba... More

Was formally a Hilton, but is now a government hotel. Great lobby, stayed on 12 floor- Double room, B&B basis. Would recommend. If you are coming from the airport get the shuttle bus which is only 10BS. PROS Amazing service, each floor has 3 free wireless networks, cable TV, great location, good breakfast, great value room service. CONS- none :)

The hotel provides a good sleep, a beautiful lobby, assistance in English if you need it, and a delicious free buffet breakfast which includes both Venezuelan and U.S. dishes. The staff is helpful and the location is good for anything you want to do in Caracas.

Took four tries to get us an acceptable room (the first room they sent us to was occupied). Finally we settled on a room without a safe; took four days to get it working. During a busy weekend two of the four elevators failed, resulting in half hour waits to get to the lobby. The rugs in the rooms are... More

Absolutely a mess. We left 3 days early. Staff was rude and service was the worst I have ever experienced in a hotel. The hotel was run down and bad oders everywhere. We did not leave the grounds due to the crime. What a shame, the location seemed like it could have been a gem

Once a beautiful Hilton Hotel now a run down state owned dump. I booked in advance but upon arrival they disavowed any knowledge of my reservations and said they would have to charge me the "rack rate". It turned out the rack rate (one person) was over $250.00 a night. Shabby rooms, drab cheap paint, faulty plumbing,old tatty furniture from... More
