The Arch - a cozy apartment with the charm of history

A cosy apartment that was part of a tenth century church overlooking a typical Venetian square. Located 10 minutes walking from the railway station in a very characteristic area full of typical restaurants, shops and markets.

Recent conservative restorations have brought to light ancient details such as the beautiful arch in the ceiling. Definitely a unique place!

Air conditioning, internet WiFi and independent heating. Great base for exploring the city!

More in Details

More precisely, the apartment is located in the apse of the church whose semicircular structure is still clearly visible both from the outside and from the inside of the building.

The location area is fantastic with characteristic restaurants, typical shops and markets. You will be a 10-minute walk from the Venezia Santa Lucia train station and Piazzale Roma bus station.

The apartment overlooks a wonderful little square, it is on a high ground floor with independent entrance. Exposed beams and wooden floors make a charming timeless atmosphere. The apartment is tastefully decorated in a classic style with some beautiful antique forniture and some modern details.

It consists of:

- a wide living room with a comfortable sofa bed for 2 people and a fully equipped kitchen

- a recent renewed bathroom with sink, large shower, wc, bidet and a large mirror

- the master bedroom with a king size double bed

Location

The apartment is located in the district of San Polo, near the Rialto Bridge and the Rialto Bridge. It is very close to the airport and the mainland. Unforgettable pleasant moments.

In few minutes you can reach Campo San Polo, the largest open space in Venice after St. Mark's Square, a wide irregular square with open-air cinema during summer and little ice rink during winter. The awesome Basilica of Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari is behind home and Ca Foscari University is 5 minutes walking.

The supermarket CONAD is 3 minutes on foot from home and it is open 7 days out of 7.

You will be in the heart of the city!

Ground floor apartment in a great location, close to everything yet away from the 'touristy' busy areas of Venice. The apartment was clean, spacious and relatively well appointed and communication with the lady from 'Venice Neighbours' for the checkin process was smooth and very accomodating. Would definitely stay here again.

Pleasant apartment in interesting location
Apartment was cute and roomy. A bit cold in the apartment in the evenings during the unseasonably cool early-mid May weather.

Quiet apartment away from busy tourist spots
The location of the apartment was convenient for sightseeing with a few restaurants and cafes close by. There was a good cafe across the square (with thick hot chocolate) and a cafe next door serving the popular aperitif Aperol Spritz. Great way to chill out in the afternoon. The apartment is not in the middle of the tourist spots so relatively quiet, but can walk easily to Rialto Bridge in about 15mins, and 30mins to Piazza San Marco. Note that it's about 15mins walk to the apartment from the rail station and have to cross a few bridges with steps. This was a little difficult with big luggage. We didn't meet Andrea in person but he gave us detailed instructions on how to get to the apartment from the airport. His friend Simone was available to meet us and return the deposit when we check out. There was no wifi when we stayed there so we had to buy a data sim for 30 Euro, but we were told wifi would be installed after we left. Overall it was a nice clean apartment and the decor was inviting, exactly as pictured. The window shutters can be closed on the outside to shut out all noise and light so we were well rested every night.

Lautstärke
Da sich vor der Wohnung eine Bar mit mindestens 60 Außenplätzen befanden der Betrieb dort erst gegen 2 Uhr morgens endete, war bis zu diesem Zeitpunkt an Schlaf nicht zu denken, zumal Fenster und Fensterläden nicht dicht waren. Lage und Ausstattung der Wohnung waren nichts Besonderes angesichts des doch relativ hohen Preises (ca. 2000€ für 9 Nächte).Wir können eigentlich nur abraten.
