The Duodo Gregolin Palace was a fantastic place to live during our family visit in Venice.
We celebrated my wife 50th anniversary and our 20th wedding anniversary, I wanted to offer a beautiful surprise and I wanted a truly authentic Venetian space and this is exactly what we got. Comfort and luxury - the floor, the doors and furnitures are telling the story. You can easily have a good sense of how wealthy Venetians used to live in the glorious past of the city - before it was such a busy touristic attraction.
We are very happy with our experience. Both my wife and 2 daughters (14 and 17) appreciated very very much. This apartment is VERY large and as the pictures shows the furnishing is very beautiful.
Having one Air Conditionning in EACH of the 3 bedrooms contributed to ensure we could rest even if we we jet lagged - for Canadians and Americans used to constant home temperature this will be specially appreciated, the days are very hot in Venice.
Also very nice touch: there was a brand new north american sized bridge - with ICE machine - so convenient to fill up your bottles in the morning or prepare your SPRITZ at the end of the day (you should have your Spriz on a terrace anyway ;-)
Very nice feature - there was a number of AC plugs that directly accept North American electrical plug - although they are 220VAC they will let you recharge your phones, laptops and tablets directly with no adapter.
Internet access was on its way, so at the time of our vacation there was no wifi - Sebastiano told us it should be installed soon. We are using our Mobile phone LTE connections which is very often more reliable than local wifi we get when renting. We use it also to search and navigate during the day so it is just more convenient.
The kitchen was recently renovated - it is very clean and modern - as I'm a purist I only wished they would have used traditional tiles there... no big deal, we have not used the kitchen once.
Thank you Sebastiano et Marco - we enjoyed
