Photos and Description of this Venice city centre holiday apartment 220 sq mtrs, 3 large bedrooms sleep 6 in comfort, kitchen, lounge, dining room

Sansovino is a self-contained apartment located on the second and third floors of a 16th Century Venetian palazzetto. It is situated in the heart of Venice's most sought after residential area, S. Marco, and is just 100 metres from the S. Angelo vaporetto stop on the Grand Canal which provides easy access to the whole of Venice. Whilst close to the main Venetian thoroughfares, the property enjoys a quiet location which provides comfort and convenience to our guests Its name derives from a ceiling in the dining room designed, it is said, by Sansovino, one of the most famous of the Venetian architects and designers responsible for many beautiful buildings in Venice. The property was completely renovated in 2002 to provide comfortable accommodation for up to 6 people and comprises approximately 220 sq. metres in total. The apartment is offered as a self-catering facility to provide excellent facilities at an affordable price.

Venice is an archipelago of 183 islands situated 7 kilometres off the North East Adriatic Coast of Italy and joined to the mainland by a causeway. Although Venice enjoys a reputation as arguably the most beautiful city in the world it is surrounded by islands in a lagoon each of which is steeped in history and tradition well worth exploring as well as specialist trades which are close at hand. Murano is famous the world over for its glass whilst Burano has its lace-making and Lido provides a beach and golf club. Despite these attractions most tourists to the area spend the majority of their precious time exploring the calles (or streets) of Venice looking for bargains and matters of interest. Venice is full of Museums and Churches which contain fabulous works of art. To find the best of these treasures, some inexpensive tourist guides are available in many languages. Sansovino is located central to these features whilst at the same time providing a quiet haven at the end of the day

Your apartment was more beautiful than we ever imagined 19 May 2003

It was the third and best apartment we have rented in Venice. A very special and lovely jewel. 30 April 2003

Location of the apartment couldn't be better. 11 June 2003

If you have no problems with climbing stairs this is the place to stay in Venice and share the feeling of being at home. It is central for visiting the city and well equiped so you can rest after walking all day long.

Sansovino

Robbo MA, USA
Review Submitted: August 4, 2008 Date of Stay: June 2008
Did not think this was a 3 bedroom apartment. Very steep stairs to the 3rd bedroom which was very small with no closet. Very basic but in a good location...We stayed in 4 other villas much more luxurious that this...I know it's Venice and it's old but this was not what we expected and moved to a hotel after 3 days.. We arrived to no electricity and the milk that had been left in the refrigerator had turned to cheese. The bread was green with mold...
So many mosquitos in the apartment, we were bitten to bits. Downstairs entry full of cobwebs...Apartment was very dark and we couldn[t open the living room or master bedroom windows because of scaffolding outside. Weather was high 80's to 90's and there was 1 fan in the whole apartment! Would only recommend it for young adults that are not looking for comfortable accommodation.
Certainly wouldn't recommend it to my friends..

Palazzetto Sansovino

JSFD London
Review Submitted: July 22, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
Absolutely perfectly positioned for a good look at Venice, in San Marco but near the calm and beautiful square of San Stefano, perfect for breakfasts and late night drinks. Very close (2 minutes with luggage) to the San Angelo vaporetto stop which conveniently is reachable directly from the airport. The place itself is lovely, but we barely spent two minutes indoors when we weren't asleep.

Review Submitted: May 26, 2008 Date of Stay: December 2007
We had the most wonderful family Christmas in this apartment. The apartment totally lives up to the photos; it is beautiful. Plenty of heat, plenty of hot water, very modern kitchen. Very centrally located. Great little coffee bar on corner. Easy access to vaporetto. Can't say enough.
