Located on the peaceful border of Cannaregio and Castello, this bright penthouse is perfect for those looking for a base to explore Venice. With easy access to St. Mark’s Square and the Biennale Pavilions at Arsenale, you can experience the city at your own pace here. This third-floor penthouse is only accessible by stairs, so be prepared to carry your luggage up – though with two terraces above the city, it’s worth the climb. Take in the characterful street of Barbaria de le Tole and admire the monumental statues on the facade of the nearby church of the Ospedaletto with a glass of Prosecco in hand – you have all the ingredients for a memorable Venetian stay.
