Apartment in Enchanting and Romantic Venice

Situated in a quiet residential area of the Cannaregio district of Venice,
yet close to all major amenities, this comfortable apartment provides
an excellent location from which to explore the treasures of Venice or indeed
further afield. The apartment itself is located in a 400-year old building in
the heart of the Jewish quarter adjoining one of the historic old synagogues
and close by the Museum of Hebrew Art. It is a fascinating quarter of the
city and one of the few still principally occupied by Venetians and not given
over to tourism.

The style of furnishing in the apartment is typically Venetian with extensive use of tiled floors, simple white painted walls and a mix of modern and traditional furniture. The apartment is fully equipped and all linen and towels are supplied.
All rooms have shuttered windows for guests wishing to shut out sun or noise.

For comfort during hot weather there is air conditioning. Entrance to the apartment building is by secure entry phone or key only.
The apartment is located on the fourth floor that is reached by lift or stairs.
A telephone is installed and may be used to receive incoming calls. For outgoing calls we ask guests to purchase an international telephone card before arrival.

On entering from the tiny lobby (shared with the adjoining apartment) the apartment comprises-
Entrance hall/sitting room with television and seating and gate-leg table for dining which seats 4-6.
Leading to-Kitchen - This pleasant sunny room has full height French windows which may be left open giving an attractive view over neighbouring rooftops. It is self-contained and fully equipped with gas hob and electric oven, refrigerator and extractor fan. There are also a table and four chairs.
Bathroom - comprising bath with electric overhead shower and shower screen, wc, wash hand basin with illuminated mirror/magnifying mirror and electric shaver point and bidet. A small washing machine for the use of guests is also situated here. A small hand held hairdryer is also available.
Bedroom 1 - a quiet twin-bedded room with bedside cabinets, linen chest, chair, double wardrobe and chest of drawers. Leading to- Small storage/utility area with tumble dryer which guests are welcome to use. A small safe is also located here for guests to store passports and valuables.
Bedroom 2 - a twin-bedded room with wardrobe, chest of drawers and desk and chair, enjoying same view as from the kitchen.

Local info: A five-minute walk from the apartment brings you to the San Marcuola stop on the Grand Canal. From here a number of waterbuses provide a frequent service to all stops along the Grand Canal including the Rialto Bridge, Accademia and Piazza San Marco and then on to the Lido.
Newcomers to Venice will find that a relaxing tour along the routes of the giracitta (round the city) services and on the many services along the Grand Canal provide a delightful introduction to the city and its lagoon.
Alternatively take a leisurely 20-minute stroll to Rialto and on to St Marks Square which takes a further 10 minutes. Of course many areas of the city are only accessible on foot and Venice amply repays the visitor who takes the time to stroll through its labyrinth of calles (alleyways) and Piazzas (called Campo in Venice). Indeed one of the greatest pleasures in Venice is to take a leisurely walk along an unplanned route choosing calles and squares at random.
Art lovers are well catered for with a seemingly inexhaustible choice of galleries and museums.
Shopping for food and other day to day needs could not be simpler - there is a good variety of shops and restaurants close at hand and a daily market with excellent fruit and vegetables together with a fresh fish stall a hundred yards or so from the apartment. On the corner of the calle where you turn in to reach the apartment there is a wine shop selling wine by the litre direct from the flagons. The wine is excellent and cheap. Take your own bottles!
