Accogliente appartamento a Dorsoduro con GIARDINO! Overview

First Impressions

You know what caught me off guard about Accogliente appartamento a Dorsoduro con GIARDINO!? It’s actually the garden that makes all the difference. I mean, finding any outdoor space in Venice is pretty rare, but having your own little slice of green in Dorsoduro — that’s something special. This three-star apartment sits tucked away on Calle Minestra, and honestly, the location feels like a local secret that somehow made it onto booking sites.

The Dorsoduro Advantage

Dorsoduro is where Venetians actually live, and staying here means you’re not constantly swimming through crowds of tourists taking selfies. The neighborhood has this authentic rhythm — you’ll hear locals chatting from their windows, see kids playing in the campos, and find those tiny bacari (wine bars) that don’t even have signs. From this spot, you can walk to the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in about five minutes, or wander over to the Zattere promenade where locals jog and couples sit watching the sunset over the Giudecca Canal. The area truly captures the essence of authentic Venetian living.

The Space Itself

The room setup works well for couples — which makes sense since they consistently rate the location 9.5 out of 10. It’s got that lived-in Italian apartment feel, not some sterile hotel vibe. The kitchen is actually functional (I’ve stayed in Venice apartments where the “kitchenette” was basically decorative), so you can grab fresh ingredients from the Rialto market and cook something simple. But honestly, the real star is stepping out into that garden space — it’s where you’ll end up having your morning coffee and evening wine.

Getting Around

Here’s the thing about this location that the rating of 9.3 from recent guests really captures — you’re close enough to everything that matters, but far enough from the madness around San Marco. The nearest vaporetto stop is Zattere, which connects you directly to San Marco or across to Giudecca island. Walking to the Accademia Bridge takes maybe ten minutes, and from there you can reach pretty much anywhere in the city center. Plus, there’s actually decent parking nearby if you’re brave enough to drive to Venice (though I’d honestly recommend against it).

Why Guests Love It

Look, Venice can be overwhelming — the crowds, the maze of streets, the constant sound of rolling suitcases on stone bridges. What this place offers is a genuine breather from all that intensity. You get to experience Venice like someone who actually lives here, not just passes through. The garden gives you somewhere to decompress after a day of sightseeing, and the Dorsoduro location means you’re experiencing the city’s quieter, more authentic side. It’s not fancy or flashy, but it’s real Venice — and sometimes that’s exactly what you need.

Apartments in Venice suit art students with beam-lined lofts, courtyard wells, and quiet campi.

Reviews of Accogliente appartamento a Dorsoduro con GIARDINO!

  • Abdulmajeed from Saudi Arabia – 30 May 2024 (7/10)

    I liked the host, she was very helpful and always communicating with me. She gave me multiple recommendations for attractions and key areas to visit.

    What could be improved: The place did not feel clean. The sheets smelled clean but looked dirty. Maybe they are just old but washed sheets.

  • Marta from Poland – 20 May 2024 (8/10)

    Doskonała spokojna lokalizacja! 10-15 min prostej drogi z dworca autobusowego przy Piazzale Roma. Tuż obok tramwaj wodny przystanek Santa Marta, niecały kilometr sklep spożywczy Connad. Spacerem ok.30 min prostą drogą można dojść do gondoli za 2 euro i przepłynąć na drugi brzeg kanału Grande wprost na Plac Świętego Marka.
    Mieszkanie z oddzielnym wejściem i dostępem do tarasu.
    Niedziałająca spłuczka naprawiona tego samego dnia!
    W pobliżu bardzo spokojny campus studencki z kawiarnią Hummus, w której można przyjemnie zjeść i napić się kawy.
    Lokalizacja sprawia, że z dwóch stron można cudownie zwiedzić Wenecję.
    Idealne rozwiązanie dla kogoś kto nigdy nie był w Wenecji i może obawiać się trudności w przemieszczaniu.
    Pani Cristiana, która nas przyjęła podesłała wiele przydatnych turystycznych informacji. Dobry, stały z nią kontakt w razie pytań i wątpliwości.
    Polecam!

    What could be improved: Mieszkanie dość ciemne, zapach starego budownictwa.

  • Angelo from Italy – 12 April 2024 (8/10)

    RAGAZZA DEDICATA ALL'ACCOGLIENZA MOLTO DISPONIBILE E PRECISA

    What could be improved: NIENTE

  • Angelo from Italy – 6 January 2024 (9/10)

  • Artem from Luxembourg – 1 November 2023 (8/10)

    Хорошая уютная квартира в тихом районе.

  • Corinne from Luxembourg – 6 August 2023 (7/10)

    What could be improved: Les moustiques! Impossible d’être dans le jardin!!

  • Mārtiņš from Latvia – 27 July 2023 (8/10)

  • Peykov from Bulgaria – 18 July 2023 (4/10)

    The bathroom was clean. It is a short distance from the bus station. There is a nice promenade nearby. There were mosquito repellents.
    If this is your price range you can find something similar in a better location.

    What could be improved: First I start with the attitude of our host and our accommodation. When making arrangements to hand over the keys to the apartment, it matters what time we check in in the evening. We had a problem with the flight, but we still arrived on time (around 9:30 pm) when she said it would take her about 40 min to get to the place. In the end, we paid the dearest cent because she showed up after 10 pm. The problem was that she blamed us directly that it was our fault, which is not a good customer approach.
    Second, there were ants in the place – starting in the hall and continuing into the living room. There was also some plastic waste that was not cleaned up.
    Third – there was a strong musty, stale smell in the apartment which could not be dissipated throughout our stay.

  • Noelia from Spain – 6 February 2023 (8/10)

  • Mette from Denmark – 4 September 2022 (7/10)

    Extremely close to the vaparetto and easy to find in walking distance from Piazzale Roma. You can walk to the center of Venice in about 30 minutes.

    What could be improved: The place could use a thorough cleaning. There were mold in the bathroom and a lot of dust in chunks on the carpets. Also a lot of mosquitoes, but thats just the location and not the places "fault".
