Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Located just moments from the iconic La Fenice Opera House and five minutes on foot from San Marco Square, this is as central as Venice apartments get. Not that you’d know it – despite its location, guests rave about how quiet it is at night here. Well-suited for a small family or group of friends sharing, there’s a sofa bed in the lounge area to sleep an additional guest. The desk space tucked away in a nook off the bedroom is a bonus, too, for anyone planning to work remotely.

About San Marco
San Marco is probably the most well-known of Venice’s main districts, and the most popular among tourists.
