Period residence palace Grandiben

The house is an apartment in the heart of the historic center of Venice, owned by my family for many years. It is rented when my family does not use it, to recover the high management costs. Located in a historic building, it has large windows overlooking typical views of Venice, 5 minutes from Piazza S. Marco but away from the noise and the crowd of tourists. Very high ceilings, according to the building tradition of the 18th century Venice, an excellent base for visiting the city on foot, without the need to take public transport.
If you want, Emanuela can book a boat tour (a navy from 15 mt with sailor and guide on board), it cost 20 euro/person.
The tour (6 hours) cames to Murano, Burano, Torcello (1,5 hour in every isle) with visiting a glass factory in Murano.
The tour start at 11 in the morning and finish near S. Marco square .
To book, write to Emanuela.
Payment: 5 euros/person to confirm (when you’ll arrive in the apartment) and the rest to the desk, before the tour start.

The flat was spacious and very clean. Emanuela greeted us warmly and was very helpful. The bed was comfortable and the shower was great, with plentiful hot water. Good washing-machine and dryer. The kitchen was well-equipped, but we would have appreciated better/stronger lighting. Perfect location for us. Very quiet at night. We would stay here again.

Great house

We stayed at this property during our Venice visit. The house was close to all the tourist spots, easy to walk to St. Mark square and museums, yet away from the hustle near the port. We liked the cleanliness also. The host was super helpful, they came to get us from the boat ride on a rainy day! We totally enjoyed our stay here.

Great stay in Venice

The property was perfect for us - 2 couples (4 adults). The host was very friendly and helpful and met us on arrival. The location was perfect - short walk to the tourist spots but just out of the way enough to stay out of the tourist mess if you wanted. Many shops, cafes and restaurants just around the corner. Clean, comfortable and would definitely stay there again.

Simply Wonderful

The apartment was spacious and comfortable. Kitchen was well-stocked with basic staples provided. Very nice to have two bathrooms (—water pressure was great for shower-taking.) Loved the location —great neighborhood. And the property manager, Emanuela, could not have been nicer nor more helpful. Very much look forward to going back—-hopefully sooner than later!
