The Petrarca is a brilliantly restored first floor Venetian style apartment conveniently located in the authentic Castello District. It is found about 10 minutes on foot from St. Mark’s Square and the Rialto Bridge, about 3 minutes on foot from the Vaporetto stop, with various groceries and supermarkets in the surroundings. Castello is less touristy and more authentic than other districts, in the last few years always more requested by art collectors, artists, gallerists and architects because of its proximity to the Biennale main exhibition sites. The Petrarca features a perfectly equipped kitchen with a large dining table, two nice bathrooms (with bathtub and shower), a large double bedroom with plenty of wardrobe space, a good size second bedroom with 2 single beds, a compact living room (TV room) with a brand-new double sofa-bed and a spacious entrance room found in the centre of the apartment which give access to all other rooms. The recent conservative renovation optimized the layout, allowing total comfort for up to 6 people, while respecting the ancient heritage. The Petrarca is furnished with a pleasant blend of family-owned antique pieces and contemporary details, which jointly to the beautiful flooring and ceilings confer a unique allure to the ambience. It is equipped with air conditioning, Wi-Fi internet connection, satellite TV, DVD-Player, audio system, washing machine, dishwasher, hairdryer, safe, storage room on ground floor. It is suitable to everyone, small groups of friends and families!

About the area

Venice, Italy, is a city that enchants its visitors with its distinctive blend of history, artistry, and romance. The city is uniquely constructed on over 100 small islands in a lagoon in the Adriatic Sea. Instead of roads and cars, Venice is characterized by its waterways and gondolas, offering a truly unique urban experience. St. Mark's Square stands as one of the city's most iconic landmarks. It is home to St. Mark's Basilica and Doge's Palace. The basilica boasts stunning Byzantine mosaics while the palace showcases Gothic architecture and grand rooms adorned with art - both are symbols of Venice's rich historical heritage. The Grand Canal is another must-visit attraction in Venice. A gondola ride along this major waterway provides breathtaking views of beautiful palaces and historic buildings lining its banks. For those passionate about art, the Peggy Guggenheim Collection offers an impressive collection of modern art from renowned artists like Picasso and Pollock. Venice takes pride in its glassmaking industry located on the island of Murano where visitors can witness artisans crafting intricate glass pieces using age-old techniques. The city also hosts several globally recognized events such as the Venice Biennale art exhibition and the Venice Film Festival which draw artists and celebrities worldwide. For gastronomes, Venetian cuisine offers fresh seafood from the lagoon and traditional dishes like risotto nero (black risotto) made with cuttlefish ink. In summary, Venice presents an irresistible mix of history, culture, artistic talent, gastronomy, and romance that makes it an ideal destination for any traveler.
