In a vibrant place as Venice, with a lot of shops, people and restaurants, Irene’s space was just pure bliss after a very long day and night out. It is very calm, peaceful, beautiful and cosy. We loved it and immediately felt at home and slept like babies.
It is close to Rialto Bridge (about 15 minutes by foot) which is the bridge you absolutely need to cross the grand canal, and to visit St. Mark’s Square. With this location you dont waste time on walking too much or taking the water bus.
We had all our breakfasts at the Brunch Café just downstairs and highly recommend this place.
We only had coffee at home.
We also recommend dinner at Osteria Bancogiro Venezia at the Campo Ebeira which is just behind the food market and on the other side of the Rialto Bridge. Sitting at the terraces at night having your dinner overlooking the boats and gondoles was amazing.
When leaving we recommend to take the airport water bus (orange line) which departs from Rialto Bridge.
It takes 1 hour and is €15/person.
Last thing: There are mosquitos in Venice even in October, so bring some repellent and use the mosquito nets on the windows; yes Irene has thought of everything !
Thank you so much Irene, we hope to be back again soon. Venice is magical !
