Drop your bags and explore Venice from this charming apartment in the San Samuele district. Located on the third and fourth floors and with its own rooftop terrace (which is on the smaller side but has lovely views), there are a lot of stairs here. Guests with reduced mobility may wish to look elsewhere, but families and friends hoping to make the most of Venice are in luck. It's an easy stroll to a grocery store, wine shop, and a range of cafes. And with several vaporetto (canal boat) stops close by, you'll be exploring the city in no time.

Home truths
This home is on the third and fourth floors, with a lot of steps to the third bedroom and to the rooftop terrace. The main staircase only has a bannister on one side, so it won't be the best option for those with reduced mobility and small children should be supervised.
Not all bathrooms are pictured, but we expect consistency in quality and style throughout.
Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise.
No cars are allowed in Venice, but you'll be close to the water bus stops for easy travel around the city.
The ceiling in some areas is on the low side. It might not be suitable for taller guests.
The traditional decor here may not be to everyone's taste.

About San Marco
San Marco is probably the most well-known of Venice’s main districts, and the most popular among tourists. It’s packed with monuments – it has spectacular palaces and churches, and consistently beautiful Gothic and Renaissance architecture. The central square is, unsurprisingly, an important tourist hub. A lot of the luxury hotels are around here, so it’s not necessarily the place to find authentic, family-run restaurants or cafes. This area’s known for...

Explore the Gallerie dell'Accademia
This is the place to discover the city's most important art collection, spanning the fourteenth to the eighteenth century.
Enjoy the Peggy Guggenheim collection
This private collection houses works by key twentieth-century artists including Dalì, Picasso, and Mondrian. The palace it's held in is a marvel in itself.
See an opera at Teatro la Fenice
Teatro la Fenice's name translates to 'Phoenix Theatre', a name it earned by being burned down twice. Remember to book in advance – most shows sell out.
Photograph the view from the bridge
Ponte dell'Accademia is the southernmost of the four bridges of Venice that cross the Canal Grande, and it offers the best view of the water.
Have an ice cream at Gelateria Nico
Come here especially for the gianduiotto, a swirl of ice cream placed in a glass before being drowned in whipped cream.
Discover the Grand Canal
Immerse yourself in the beauty and serenity of the Grand Canal in Venice. Take a gondola ride and marvel at the classical buildings that line this iconic waterway.
Make reservations at Bistrot de Venise
An exquisite gem in the heart of Venice, offering authentic Italian cuisine with modern twists. Meticulously prepared dishes, flawless service, and an ambience that captivates.
