You can’t do better in Venice than book Giorgio & Ida’s cosy, centrally located, well-appointed ground floor apartment. While searching for accommodation my husband and I looked at over 50 properties and Giorgio & Ida’s stood out as the best one, and it was even better than we expected. The great touches included the culture and colour of the posters, guide books, wardrobe space, generous bathroom, great heating and quiet location. And yet you are less than 20metres from the vaporetto stop which runs at night as well and is also an Alilaguna boat stop for your airport transfer! We had one of our best Christmas breaks at this apartment as we could take a vaporetto to palazzo museums like Ca d’Oro, Ca’Rezzonico, Palazzo Grassi (modern art) and Peggy Guggenheim on the number 1 vaporetto. The Rialto is about 4-5 stops away and beautiful San Marco Square is at the end of the line. You can also get to the Biennale easily from here and get out at the Giardini stop or go to the beach on the Lido further afield. A week before our stay Ida emailed us a fantastic list of personal recommendations for restaurants, cafes, sights and transport which we referred to everyday. On the street of the apartment there is a bakery and a great little restaurant with a set lunch menu and a charming boutique museum of textiles and perfume called Palazzo Mocenigo. The fish mercato is just a short walk away! Book your stay now!
