This superb and elegant apartment is in a quiet residential area of Venice but only moments from the bustling sights. It made a great base for us as we explored the city and visited the Architecture Biennale, only 10 minutes walk away.
The apartment is beautifully presented with three generous bedrooms, the highlight being the mezzanine bedroom in the lovely double-height dining/living area, and is clearly owned by people with good taste in furniture, books and art. The views from the 5th floor allowed us to see over the rooftops of the city and into a little canal.
Communication with the hosts was excellent, very hospitable, friendly and always prompt.
In the neighbourhood we recommend Rosa Salva bakery/cafe on Campo Santi Giovanni e Paolo, and there are a number of great restaurants only 1-2 minutes walk from the front door such as 6342 A Le Tole and Osteria Alla Staffa (book in advance or arrive early to avoid the queues) as well as a Coop supermarket close to Ospedale vaporetto stop.
Highly recommended!
