Those looking for a quiet stay away from the hustle and bustle of tourist crowds will find this apartment near the Arsenal of Venice a comfortable base from which to explore the city. Though the decor is functional and the touristic art on the walls a little uninspiring, the two bedrooms are minimalist and uncluttered and the pair of bathrooms will come in handy for morning routines ahead of a busy day of sightseeing. Speaking of which, the Biennale Gardens are a five-minute walk away and a fifteen-minute stroll will bring you to St Mark’s Square and the Rialto Bridge. Alternatively, hop on a water bus from the nearby vaporetto stop to explore the wider city, Piazzale Roma and Murano Island.
