Brimming with Venetian charm, this restored, high-beamed apartment is an idyllic place to call home during a trip to Venice. Located right in the heart of the city, moments from the Grand Canal, you can unwind sumptuously in between your cultural endeavours. Step inside, and you'll find a stunning, characterful space with traditional architecture and a contemporary design aesthetic. The kitchen is equipped with everything you could need to prepare your favourite Italian specialities - including a Bialetti moka pot for a superior caffeinated experience in the mornings. In the evenings, enjoy culinary feasts at the sleek dining table, accompanied by a cold glass of Lison and the hum of the city just outside your window. When it's time to unwind, climb the stunning suspended staircase up to your slice of calm and sink into the sheets ready to explore the city another day. It's easy to tick off your sightseeing list from here, as many of the city's most iconic attractions are close by. Walk to Domenico Rossi’s 11th-Century San Stae in just six minutes, before wandering to Ca' Pesaro International Gallery of Modern Art – it's just two minutes from there. And, if you want to explore the... city via water taxi, then hop on a boat at the San Stae stop - our favourite way to see Venice.

About Cannaregio
Cannaregio is historically the Jewish quarter of Venice. The tall buildings in Campo del Ghetto Nuovo were built in the seventeenth century to house the Jewish Venetians who were forced into the area. These days, it’s generally less crowded and has more of a traditional, laid-back feel to it, far removed from the tourist thoroughfares south of the Grand Canal.
