When travelling you often want a no fuss, new hotel style space - but in unique locations like Venice you hope to find something authentic and cultural - a space that you imagine the houses behind the beautiful buildings actually should look like. We found the space. This house is not new - the furnishings are from another era. But this house is divine! It makes you feel like you are staying with Royalty. The rooms are huge - the ceilings are so high. The decor is magical. It was such a delight to stay here - we should have stayed much longer. We can completely recommend this space to anyone wanting to live in a Venetian fairytale. People wanting modern and new should look somewhere else. Only for those who want a proper Venice experience. Thanks Rita - you were so lovely and helpful.
